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

One of these mornings

you're goin' to rise singin'
Then you spread your wings

 

[Angharad]

so, goodbye for now

we need time to understand

cruising for bruising

[metub4]

been forty years now

since Jim died on July third

troubadour of youth

 

[Angharad]

For you on this Independence Day, and always, Beloved.

more love and more joy

than age or time can destroy

I belong to you

 

[Angharad]

Oh, Darling...this brought tears to my eyes. I reach out to touch you...

lovers come and go...

but what we have is MUCH more

than others can see

[metub4]

my Sunday feeling

is coming on over me

the night is over

 

need some assistance

you listened to what I said

feeling in my head

 

 

 

[Angharad]

To my favorite professor from all his students....

 

i'd give him the moon

but i'd rather give my heart

to sir, with love

 

[Angharad]

no tears and no fears

remember, there's tomorrow

we'll be together

 

I love you so, M'Annsachd.

 

[Angharad]

the very thought, draughn

makes me forget everything

but my love for you

 

your eyes in the stars

your face in every flower...

how slow the moments

[metub4]

in the summertime

can chase right up touch the sky

see what you can find

 

sing along with us

da da yeah we're hap-pap-py

dee da dee da da

 

[metub4]

I once had a girl

or should say she once had me

and when i awoke ..............

 

[Angharad]

One of my very favorite Beatles songs, M. Thanks for posting it!
