Hi, I was talking to a friend today and he was talking about his grand daughter, the other day they were travelling in the car, it was a bright sunny day and the sky was blue and clear... a plane left a vapour trail in the sky..... my friend's grand daughter asked "Grandad, Who puts the scratches in the sky?"

I reminded me of the time when we went to the beach when my little sister was small she took one look at the beach - something she had NEVER seen in the flesh before and she gasped.... "Look Mummy, Sand AND Cabbages!" (referring of course to the seaweed)

I wrote a song about my Grandfather going to Passchendale in WW1 after my daughter asked "What are those red flowers for, Mum?" which formed the chorus of the song.

Have any more of you been inspired to write a song following the innocent questions of a child?
