Thank you everyone for your hints and encouragements. The name of the piece is Journey West by Renee Schwab. The following link takes you to youtube where you can hear this beautiful music.

There are five sharps: F C D A and another upper F (maybe?). I so want to learn this piece because I held my granddaughter on my lap and she road my hands from the ages of 2 thru 4 or 5. Now she is 10 and excited that she can play all by herself and with two hands! Be it far from this grandma not to apply to myself my own words of practice and dedication which I gave to her.

PS: I am self-taught but have been told I am a fair pianist. Little do many know, I double up on my left-hand notes to make the piece sound more detailed. I love adding a run on the ending notes scale. Certainly any teacher would shake her head but since I play only for my own enjoyment, maybe it does not make any difference at my age.
