Under the rainbow we’re all of us blessed - so true, so true, so true. Willows, fishes, windows, rainbows and sparrows give us all something to smile about, and the singing of your wonderful words is the cherry on top. My wish for you is peace, love and happiness. ~ Mark

[@nllleonard]

Very glad it rang true for you, Mark! I'm so glad to hear that! Thank you for your kindness always and for coming to listen again! Peace, love and happiness and every blessing to you, dear friend! NAncy

My grandmother had a beautiful willow tree. I made many wishes in it. ❤

[@nllleonard]

Thank you for telling me about her willow tree and your wishes, friend! I loved hearing about that!

[@turtledrum7386]

How I love this song, dear Nancy. Those wishes capture our fancy from the get go, carrying us from here to maybe. And the if of that wind. There's such a beautiful, tender hope at the heart of this. We can't help but see our world transformed in the dancing of our hearts. I'm out East and I sat on the porch a bit this afternoon, listening to the wind in the trees. I hadn't the words for all I felt then, but I've found them here in your voice tonight. I hope those dreams of yours drift with the grace of stars and feathers and wishes that come true. xo

[@nllleonard]

I hope the wind in the trees whispered what you needed to hear and told you sweet secrets that lifted you up to where you wanted to be, dear Linda. Thank you for your careful and heartful listening and for your kind reaction to my song. I always appreciate and so enjoy your wonderful comments. xo

[@bamsdram]

If...a small word with a huge meaning Nancy , blessings for reminding us all to wish such huge wishes !

[@nllleonard]

Ah, Jim... it is a big little word. Thank you so much for your kindnesses and for coming to listen. Many blessings to you, Jim!

[@nissi.k]

This song and lyrics mingle hope, peace, and beauty in a sweet suspended time! Thank you for sharing! 🙌

[@nllleonard]

Thank you, Nissi, for finding those nice things in my song! Blessings and best wishes to you!

[@ThereseLefebvreComposerPianist]

I always don't want to leave when I come here... your gift to us is very much appreciated... mind and soul are so in need of this... true writing and a true performance 🙏🌹

[@nllleonard]

You are most generous, Therese! Thank you for visiting and for leaving such a wonderful comment! I do so appreciate it and I enjoy your songs very much!

[@Warum679]

Anyone who doubts the rainbow is unclean with themselves. Desires that are becoming more and more distant in a time of idiocy. Grandiose song Nancy.

[@nllleonard]

Thank you very much for coming to listen and for your kind words, Andreas. You are very kind!

[@ThereseLefebvreComposerPianist]

A most hopeful moment with you... always such soothing melodies... we can only reflect along... thank you for the peaceful bliss... a most appreciated song full of harmony ...hope and truth 🙏🌹

[@nllleonard]

Hello Therese! Your comments are always so generous! THank you very much for lifting me up with your kind words. 🙏🌞

[@justcallmethelma]

Oh my dear Nancy! You still get more amazing as the years go by! This is my new favorite of yours! I loved this but sadly I reached my quota of songs I can favorite! I hate when it happens snd I have to back and decide what songs to remove to make room for more new ones! So please know you truly are one of my biggest favorites! This truly is so beautiful and I sang along on the first listen! Just love this so much!❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@nllleonard]

Thank you dear Kat!!! You couldn't be nicer and I so appreciate it every time! Thank you so much, you wonderful friend you!!! Very glad you liked this one! So....are they limited to five thousand? I keep right on favoriting...but I have long ago passed five thousand. I guess I need to pay attention to that. Love and big thanks! ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

[@justcallmethelma]

@@nllleonard yes 5000 is the cutoff apparently, I couldn’t tell you how many times over the years thst I have had to go in and make the decisions what goes and what stays. I just made a new favorite playlist so I can put them there instead but it really torks me off that I can’t put my stamp of “favorite” approved so that the poster knows it made it high in lists.

[@elisalouise2678]

Delicioussss and comforting song, Nancy !!!!!! I knew the weeping willow.... the whomping willow... but not the "wishing" willow ! :) Marvelous lyrics and wishes !!! 🌳 🪟 💕

[@nllleonard]

Dear Elisa...thank you so much for your so sweet and funny (whomping willow) comment! I so appreciate your listening and your generous words! Very glad you liked it!

[@LychkovIA]

Love this!! Your poetry is always so special. The "If wishes were windows..." line was especially fantastic.

[@nllleonard]

Hi Ivan! I'm really happy you liked this one! Thank you for telling me that line made a connection. I loved your album....love your album...I listened all through right away and was captivated!

[@reliablebow]

So beautifully written….so glad I came by to listen again🕯️✨🌹

[@RyanLobo]

Dear Nancy, beautiful singing. Lovely lyrics. Keep up with the great work 👏 😊

[@jamesfdonaldson]

A fine song Nancy. I'm delighted , always, with your way of taking the best of what way life should be. I should look more at what's good in the world rather than not. I'll be coming back to this song.

[@nllleonard]

Thank you, Jim! I'm so pleased that you liked my little song. You are always welcome. I will watch for your return!

[@berniarmstrong]

Delightful song that feels like it has been around the folk scene for decades. A truly fine new song in a traditional idiom.

[@nllleonard]

Thank you so much, Berni! That's really nice of you to say, friend!

[@ukeanflute]

Beautiful song. I'm only now finding time to listen to Brian's playlist. THanks for inspiring him!

Thank you Charoula! I really appreciate your kind comment, my friend! Nancy

[@eatonjohnrobert]

Gorgeous Nancy. You almost always make me think what Lucinda Williams would sound like in her living room on a mellow 2 glass of wine evening.

[@nllleonard]

I love Lucinda! Thanks so much, John. It's me with no wine. 😉

[@johnleonamnoiz9931]

Hello, my friend! So good to hear from you today!

[@cccukeclass7598]

Hi Nancy, I got here via SOTU as Brian (Pabrizzer) mentioned he fell in love with this one on first listen! It's a beautiful and moving song that I also find myself immediately falling in love with! You really have a way speaking directly to my heart. I really enjoyed the images you chose here as well! I saw a rainbow today after a much needed bit of rain, and I did indeed feel blessed, as I do now listening to your song! Wishing you the best always!

[@nllleonard]

Thank you! I so appreciate Brian's gentle and beautiful rendition of my song! I am a great admirer of his songs. It was so nice to read your kind comment, Kevin. Thank you for taking time to come listen and for listening to Brian's wonderful version.
