WHY DO WE WRITE SONGS?
To share emotions that are too big to
express in words alone.
Do you feel like an eagle flying over this forest?
Try to express that with words!
A SONG IS A POEM OF SPECIAL
THOUGHTS WRAPPED IN MUSIC!
SO WHERE'S THE MUSIC IN POEMS?
Like songs, they are also special thoughts but
the music has to be in the words.
HOW THEY AFFECT US IS THE MUSIC!
SO WHERE DOES MUSIC COME FROM?
Paul McCartney of the Beatles said his song YESTERDAY came in a dream.
Puccini said he did not write his opera MADAME BUTTERFLY, that God wrote it and chose him to be the doorway to share it with the world.
On his deathbed, Bach said to his wife: "Don't cry for me because I go where music is born."
I had a similar experience - these poems came tike dictation as I sat at the typewriter. So they are not mine. My soul sang some of its music through me so it can now sing in to you,
AND WHAT DOES SCIENCE SAY ABOUT MUSIC? HERE'S WHAT EINSTEIN SAID:
"...we are souls dressed up in sacred bio-chemical garments and our bodies are the instruments through which our souls play their music."
I released them as a book that has 56 5-star reviews on Amazon and 5-stars on he OnlineBookClub. Following is froma professional review
There are books that inform and then there are books that transform. Christian Howard’s book unmistakably belongs in the latter category.To read it is to walk briefly beside someone who has not only looked deeply into the mysteries of life and God but who has also been shaped, humbled and illuminated by the answers that came from within. I found From My Soul to Yours to be less a book I read and more a space I entered.(For full review click here.)
5.0 out of 5 stars Such an amazing book! I am blown away at how amazing this book is! These poems could have only been inspired by God and I think they will touch and inspire people in all sorts of ways! Christian's words will live on for a very long time...! I truly believe they will inspire and touch many people for generations to come!
5.0 out of 5 stars My new favorite book of poems! I absolutely loved these poems. If it weren't for the fact that I had to stop and contemplate the poems at times, I wouldn't have put the book down. Christian Howard is a remarkable writer, infusing his thoughts with such grace and love that they jump right off the page. The poems of love and devotion are my favorite, but all of the poems made me stop and think and added such beauty to everyday experiences.
I was with my spiritual mom in her hospital room on what would be my last visit before she died. From many years of yoga meditation my inner senses had opened. As I sat beside her, Archangel Michael appeared in my inner vision and stood next to me. I never share these experiences so didn't say anything. Michael asked me to tell her he was there. I still didn't say anything. He asked me again to tell her so finally I said: "Archangel Michael wants me to tell you he's here." She immediately bursts into tears and said, "I was just praying that he would be here with me."
In my opinion, Michael and the poems came through the same doorway. Now let them be yours. With them, let God lead you by the hand, because I share them as gifts of love for your life, as they were for mine.
AND HOW IMPORTANT IS LOVE?
EINSTEIN WROTE.
If we want our species to survive, if we are to find meaning in life, if we want to save the world and every sentient being that inhabits it, love is the one and only answer.
LOVE IS EVERYWHERE AS YOU CAN SEE IN THE PHOTOS BELOW.
YOU KNOW HOW I THINK OF THESE POEMS?
When you explore a National Park, you stop at scenic points and maybe take photos along the way. These 226 poems are like scenic points for the heart and mind along my journey to reach the divine. Now it's your turn. Imagine God inside you and leading you to all you can be on your journey Home. Let them now make music in your life as they did in mine.
AND SPEAKING OF LOVE SONGS, AMERICA IS ONE OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL ONES EVER WRITTEN!
Our beautiful planet and its life are songs without words we see, hear, and feel with our eyes, ears, hearts and souls. And we never had to ask! Click the photo to see the GALLERY in full screen.

THE 226 POEMS, EVERYTHING SHOWN HERE, ITS ALL ABOUT LOVE! IT'S ABOUT OUR SOULS SINGING BEAUTIFUL SONGS INTO OUR LIVES. WE JUST HAVE TO LEARN HOW TO LISTEN SO OUR HEARTS CAN BE OPEN FOR WHAT OUR SOULS ARE WAITING TO GIVE.
FROM HUMANS TO ORANGUTANS, TO DEER AND RACOONS, AND THE ORCA SO SAD AT LOSING HER CALF, SHE PUSHED IT FOR 1000 MILES BEFORE LETTING IT GO, everything needs love.
Everything that lives begins life with a mother's love. And since God is love, this means all that lives begins its life with God.
Thank you for letting me share my soul's love with you!
