A C C B G A


These 6 notes are haunting me. I started singing them while reading about the 2005 Pakistan earthquake and they keep looping back over again in my mind. I don't know if they are a remnant from a song I've heard or the opening of a song that wants to be written.

Only 6 notes but they call forth the brush of a desert wind, the ache of unshed tears, the letting go of a desperate loss.

Strange.
