🎸 Songwriting Tip: Write with Pictures, Not Statements 🌙 When I wrote Front Porch Moonlight, I didn’t start with “I feel peaceful.”Instead, I pictured the porch, the night sky, the crickets, the glow. 👉 Here’s the tip:Write images, not statements.Don’t say “I’m lonely.”Say “An empty chair by the fire keeps staring back at me.” Pictures hit harder than plain words — they make listeners feel it without you spelling it out. 💬 What about you? - Do you have a lyric where you used an image instead of saying the feeling straight out? - Or do you struggle with this — turning emotions into images? Drop your lines below 👇 Let’s swap some lyric ideas. 🎶 – Henk
