about

Kyra writes about Love of Light:

"Love of Light was inspired and written in Whistler, British Columbia, I lived there for a few years in the early 90's after graduating high school. I wrote the lyrics after going on a glorious nature hike with close friends. I did not play a musical instrument then, I had written many songs as a child but I did not view this writing as a 'song' but more of a 'poem'.

I found the poem some years later, (as a wife and mother) during one of our house moves. It was written so nicely on quality paper, I was inspired by it. I reworked the words to reflect the innocence of my youth and the wisdom of my experience as an older married woman with a child, modernized shall we say. I then structured it into a song, wrote simple music to add to it- and voila Love of Light.

When we made the decision to record another album, I knew I wanted to add this song, and was really excited about the thought of producing it and creating the music I heard in my head. We were fortunate to have amazing musician friends to work parts out with and we rehearsed (and performed live!) for weeks and months before going into the studio with Alex Terry and Tim Crease who at the time, were also my teaching colleagues at Mulberry Waldorf School.

Once in the studio,Chris Coleman worked his production magic and along with our stellar musician friends who added their talents, we created this song that we are sharing with you now, hope that you may feel inspired and love the light in your life."

lyrics

Love of Light (words and music by Kyra)

Frogs jumping in meadows of golden buttercups
Slow stream running near by a waterfall down the trickling path past the birch wood and the leafy trees oh the splendid breeze

I’m listening to the birds sing Watching for the flowers to grow and bloom And the angels to dance in a circle of joy

we are surrounded by light and we strong, strong because we belong

there is a cabin on the hill we go there still after all of these years and you are mine the moon it shines Still when the sun rises in the morning

Love of light it shines light of love it shines
