About Peggy Smyly
I was born and raised on the East Coast of Florida with the love of singing in my heart. I just had to sing. When I was older I had a long talk with God and asked Him if I could re-create the music I had in me when I was young. God laughed at me and told me to "Go For It Kid, What was I waiting for?" And I did...
PERSONAL AND INTIMATE
“It is from the depth of my soul do I write, personal and intimate about the heart". This is about the sacred emotions and needs held deep inside. Be it in Poem or Song I will express it from the heart level.” The oldest of seven children, I grew up singing. Late in the night my Mother would gather us up in her lap while sitting in her rocking chair and sing with us, "Jesus Loves Me" and “This Little Light Of Mine, all the old World War Two love songs and all the good Country and Gospel songs of the day. Thus was born the joy of singing as God had gifted and Mom had reinforced…
As I grew older I would sing to everyone I could, playing the little Ukulele as Mom taught me. I didn’t care that some didn’t like it; I had a need to sing, and did. I sang in the church choir and in the High School chorus. I also sang to strangers on the street and while working as a waitress I would entertain customers. I sang everywhere, everyday...
I married and put singing on the back burner to raise six children and be a good wife, mother and homemaker, yet all the while singing to my children as my Mother had done with us. I always wanted to write but didn’t know how. I got stuck, and then I did an intense six month Leadership Program with "The Alivening Project" to hone my creative skills. This is when the writing and singing began to flow. You are never to old to live your dream. Through life’s joys and agonies, I lost a son to violence. This inspired me to write and record a series of songs in memory of my son Bobby, to facilitate the grieving process for myself as well as help others heal their grieving hearts…to Laugh, Love, Live and Trust Again.
Anyone even THINKING Violence, LISTEN WITH YOUR HEART...
Singing and writing lights my eyes and my heart. It is a gift to share with others. If I don't then shame on me... I hope you enjoy...
