That sounds really neat, honestly. Being able to sing or do poetry as it comes. I've never really been able to grasp music, sadly. I gave up on it after years of playing trumpet. Though I might try and pick up on it again sometime. My silly music theory majoring friends make me kind of want to try my hand at music again. Because they make it sound so interesting? That there's a theory behind how it all works.
In terms of devotional things I like to sing what few folk songs I know occasionally when I am walking along or thinking about the gods and ungods. I like to read Irish poetry aloud for that reason too. Even if I can't really compose the stuff I can certainly read it or memorize it. And there's a sort of beauty in being able to read things in a way that makes them sound nice.

Aww, thanks Allec and Aondeug! And aondeug, I think I can possibly help here? When I make devotional poems and songs, it's my direct feelings, devotions, loves, joys, emotions, pretty much anything along those lines, that I just put into words as I think of it, rather through song or just like a poem (sometimes interchangeable). It's one of the reasons why I Love Gaelic Polytheism, I finally feel... Well, beyond words, pure actual devotion and love and so much more than I ever had in my past religions, and this is in just two-three months, which just affirms it for me more. This post took yesterday and today to write due to time, and last night I began smiling and happily crying, almost scared my face would freeze. But by all means, the songs and poems aren't works of Mozart, (yes I know he does no poems or lyrical songs but you get the point }. But they are, like I said above, including the fact that when these feelings do come, sometimes words can't be formed. Mainly, what I am saying is, don't care how it sounds or looks, if it's from your heart and soul, sing! Write. Of course, if your devotions are best fit through songs already, sing through that! In the end, I just hope that no random fairy is just messing with me... |

It all looks interesting, but the first post is unavailable to me! All links seem dead. I also make music for my gods, mainly in songs, and sometimes instrumental, mainly soft singing since its all I can really do besides poems and possibly crafts that can be done in the situation I'm in, but anyways, it's always random, so I can't really create songs to record, only sing when it comes, or make poems as it comes. If you look at the URL, there's a missing colon in a lot of them. You could just add those in. |

adolphuscrowfeather Searlait I just edited the OP and fixed the links forum was doing a weird http:// duplicating thing, it was bizarre. It's cooperating now though!

Sorry, I haven't made a playlist myself, but I wanted to let y'all know that Spotify has a few Brighid songs (surprisingly!!!!) as well as a few other gods and goddesses. So if anyone was looking for some good ones, they do exist!!
