Fuji Friday...Blue Horizon Fuji

Fuji and the Blue Horizon ...2 x 8"
Acrylic on Canvas

Happy New Year! This Friday's offering is influenced by one of my favorite songs... "Beyond the Blue Horizon". There is a wonderful instrumental version by the Coleman Hawkins Quintet. However, I do love the lyrics... especially on this second day of a fresh and unmarked calendar. May this be your best year... yet.

Beyond the blue horizon

Waits a beautiful day.

Goodbye to things that bore me

Joy is waiting for me.

I see a new horizon

 My life has only begun.

Beyond the blue horizon

Lies a rising sun.

                                       

Written by Leo Robin, Richard A. Whiting and W. Franke Harling 

and first recorded by Jeanette MacDonald in 1930
