Old tunes

[metub4]

Ready for a new one? May we try something different? I have been tripping of late through my old tunes and find many memories stirred through the process. They are coming out in my haikus. Loose rules here except for the 5-7-5 standard. Write a haiku about your favorite tune, capture favorite lines from your song, write about your favorite songwriter or however you choose to do it. You can tell what the song is if you like or have your friends guess. Let's have some fun here and bring back some of our favorite tunes. Might be a way of honoring our "heroes" of younger years. Below are a couple of haikus from our prior discussions as examples:

I talk to the wind
time to say goodbye my dear
the wind does not hear

(by Scott Williamson in 'Goodbye and Wind')

OR -

c'mon and touch me
can't you see I'm not afraid
c'mon touch me babe

[Angharad]

vicar of dibley
not what the town expected
but what they needed

so much like our lives...
lead us out of the valley
and to still waters

"

[metub4]

so if dogs run free
my ears hear a symphony
two mules, trains and rain

best is yet to come
that's what they explain to me
do your thing, be king

with the cosmic sea
true love needs no company
it can cure the soul

three angels above
each one playing a horn
here since Christmas morn

angels play their horns
earth progressions seem to pass
does anyone hear

the girls of the road
like apples we stole in youth
been 'round versed in truth

1971
Jim Morrison closes Doors
Paris poetry . . .


this is the end, friend
end of laughter and soft lies
end of nights we tried

This is a particularly good version of this song.....

wake me with your lips
come at me from up above
yeah- oh i need you

[metub4]

things not gettin worse
so come back Woody Guthrie
rise again somehow

[metub4]

need some distraction
memories seep from my veins
let me be empty

escaping last time
it's easier to believe
in this sweet madness

arms of the angel
may you find some comfort here
fly away from here
