John Denver Islands

Islands.....From The Album Sunshine On My Shoulders.

Islands call out to me
Like the highlands that I always see
In my dreams of home
I am never alone when I am there

Islands like so many dreams
Are like canyons but off the main stream
And theres no one there
The dreamer is always alone

And the mighty blue ocean
Keeps rolling on every shore
Like the spirit that binds us together
We are so much more than islands

Islands belong to the sea
Like the dark sands of my memory
When the morning comes
They are stepping stones to the sun

And the mighty blue ocean
Keeps rolling on every shore
Like the spirit that binds us together
We are so much more than islands

Marion, just like these islands, we are interconnected and are part of the planet as a whole. Your videos bring me joy and are a medicine when the ills of this world come to visit. Even if ours eyes never meet, you have touched my soul and I thank you so very much! Love...Gary

This is a beautiful blend of both pictures and John Denver's music. ThankYou

Question does anyone know the name of the song that he was working on and had sung on the Nature video with his kids on a raft trip down the Grand Canyon.

Hi Marion, What beautiful video you put with this wonderful, feel good song. It makes me want to go find an island and lie on the beach. So lovely. Another great job. I really enjoyed it.
