The Glinting of Waking Fields

I wrote the “The Glinting of Waking Fields” to evoke a morning’s gentle beginning. The song represents a landscape in the first light of dawn, with dew or sunlight creating a shimmering, sparkling effect across fields as they come to life. The song has a strong Celtic vibe — hinting at barley fields, misty mornings, and the quiet beauty of the world stirring from sleep.

I also think the song could represent a new chapter in one’s life; the quiet courage that comes with facing a new day with an open heart. This piece is very easy to play — and great for beginner guitar players.
