This page is dedicated to RMMS (rec.music.makers.songwriting)song challenges. The concept is very simple. Everyone suggests one or more names for a song and the list is voted down until there is one winning title. Everyone then writes a song with that title. The results are amazing. There are so many variations and no two are alike. These songs are my entries. They are listed in order of writing and a recorded commentary introduces each one. These are simply done using various software tools along with a Washburn guitar and a Yamaha keyboard.

Lyrics
Polly ran down the fire escape The flames were growing higher The smoke fumed into her eyes And she ran back into the fire When the fire went out the search began But no one found poor Polly She seemed to vanish into thin air There was no sign of her folly Poor poor Polly Burnt like my mother's toast Poor poor Polly Living out her life as a ghost Poor poor Polly Who'll miss her the most Polly sat alone in her room Not knowing what had happened Two hours turned into fifty years And Polly still did not ascend. Poor poor Polly Burnt like my mother's toast Poor poor Polly Living out her life as a ghost Poor poor Polly Who'll miss her the most Her building was gone in twenty fifty two That's when her mother Came to take her home Poor poor Polly Burnt like my mother's toast Poor poor Polly Living out her life as a ghost Poor poor Polly Who'll miss her the most
