ORANGE MOON By Carol Lesdter Orange Moon Framed by blood red clouds on black Ocean's silhouette Sandals clatter on boardwalk cracks Salty Gusts your hair flies back Cold smooth sand beneath our hands Face the night eyes flutter down Breezes sing summer's tune I become the moon I become the moon I become the Moon on the water in ribbons of amber The moon on the water in ribbons of amber The Orange Moon Paints a path across the Sea The ripples beckon me To cast our clothing on the wind Lift up our hair and step right in Golden waves on velvet tide And swim across to the other side Midnight comes way too soon I become the moon I become the moon I become the moon on the water in ribbons of amber The moon on the water in ribbons of amber (the moon on the water run ribbons of amber) Submerged and drifting toward the shore (the moon on the water run ribbons of amber) (the moon on the water run ribbons of amber) (the moon on the water run ribbons of amber) Submerged and drifting toward The Orange Moon

Sky of Endless Blue By Carol Lester carollesterproductions@gamil.com An Island of dreams  in uncertain times it's hard to believe we'd find In very few words mostly in rhyme like doves seek the shore   we fly in a sky  of endless blue  Friends are far between But I found you  in a sea  shimmering kaleidoscope of colors you (yeah)   ....you found me like petals on the breeze that find their way home it's a mystery  that we've become flowers seeking sun after weeks of rain a future beckoning (filled with fun) and we fly   in a sky  of endless blue  Friends are far between But I found you  in a sea  of shimmering kaleidoscope colors  ....you found me in all this time and in all this space  just one smile is all is takes ..... in a sky of endless blue  Friends are far between But I found you  and in a sea  of shimmering kaleidoscope colors  ....you found me

Darkened Sky by Carol Lester There's no reasons why Please don't even try I don't want a silver lining I prefer a Darkened Sky There's no reasons Why All these children have to die We deserve a darkened sky A darkened sky I don't blame anyone Who hesitates to run inside It's not the kind of fight Out police are prepared to fight Rapid fire rounds children on the ground What the hell is going on There's no reasons Why All these children have to die We deserve a darkened sky There's no reasons Why All these children have to die What the 'f is the matter with us? They're crying out from heaven asking us "When will it be enough" (there's no, there's no, there's no reasons why) There's no reasons Why All these children have to die We deserve a darkened sky There's no reasons Why All these children have to die I can't stand this anymore

STRONGER By Carol Lester Exec Produced by and for Art House Productions carollesterproductions@gmail.com 551-358-2135 Trapped inside for twelve months of winter wondering what we're gonna cook for dinner Simple things that just disappeared Like freedom and a breath of fresh air We all grew a suit of Lancelot's Armor Wore it through last summer That was a bummer We grew numb to the daily climbing numbers Finally We're feeling STRONGER Stronger Stronger Every Day This lasted longer But we're feeling stronger Stronger Every day Stronger Stronger Stronger Every Day in Every Way Counting hollow shadows in the cold silence Memories etched on the dead and dying Don't wanna be trapped in these days of yesterday Dreaming of a world where I can let my self escape Immense intense pandemic quarantine Are we out of it now or just in between? Can you see the green green trees Finally We're feeling STRONGER Stronger Stronger Every Day This lasted longer But we're feeling stronger Stronger Every day Stronger Stronger Stronger Every Day in Every Way Don't be such a rascal though the distance and the mask'll make it seem ok You may think I'm being mean but hey, 'Til you get your next vaccine, Zoom is where we'll stay 'Til we're STRONGER Stronger Stronger Every Day This lasted longer But we're feeling stronger Stronger Every day Stronger Stronger Stronger Every Day in Every Way Bake the loaves of sourdough bread one by one 'til they're done I can share them with everyone We've grown We'll set our spirits free With new beginnings and new needs We can feel that are one As we start to journey on Now there's hope and it's heading our way Our future looks bright There'll be beautiful days beautiful days beautiful days green green trees lovely as can be this year's come to an end We can finally see our friends

about

This collection of new music is only available on Bandcamp!

2020 Winter Spring Summer and Fall of our Covid Quarantine was a turning point for my creative endeavors. I built a little home studio down the shore. I zoomed around the world partaking in lots of Music Productions Classes, Sync Classes and co writing sessions. I also hosted a lot of fun Int'l Sunday Songwriter in The Round broadcasts that are still streaming on the Carol Lester Productions facebook page

I am so pleased to share this collection of songs written & produced from 2020 to 2022. I've been pitching them for TV, Film and Ads.
I Care and I Love these Shoes are now exclusively Rep'd by Superstar Sync Agent Tamara Bubble

Love to you all!
Carol Lester

P.S. There's LOTS more music already out and to come...
A five song "Salsa Christmas" album is already out on Spotify by Jon Griffin's "Sin Camisas" Cuban Band. I was the vocal arranger & singer!

I've got four more albums to release in 2023: Kids Songs, A Retro Jazz Collection, Re Imagined Covers and Original Co Writes w/ great composers from the USA, Wales, Italy, Canada, Columbia, Cuba, Argentina & Poland.
