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

[metub4]

you win, it's your show
now so what's it gonna be
people will tune in

ELVIS

A World of our Own
holding you close is heaven
I know what it's worth

[Quinn]

Under the moonlight
Dead start their masquerade walk
Cause this is Thriller…

[Quinn]

Working in my lab
The monster rose from his slab
Danced the Monster Mash

[metub4]

was a graveyard smash
a jolt from my electrode
catch on in a flash

[metub4]

love, love of my life
stars in the sky never die
tell me you need me

[metub4]

take my love, my love
for you I do anything
each day love you more

[metub4]

a Christmas carol

wish you a happy Christmas

not sister winter

 

 

 

[Quinn]

Icicles melting
Falling to the frozen ground
Slip sliding away

[metub4]

father had a son

he longed to tell him reasons

for the things he'd done

Hi met... I noticed that youtube made some changes...

Check the box under the video to the left that says, "use old embed code", then copy.

When  you get here click "HTML" up there ^ to the right, then paste.

 

 

p.s. LOVE Simon and Garfunkel...and Simon by himself.
