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

GO, DARYL!

He's 66 now--67 in October--still getting better and better. 

i need that romance
that grows strong when there's no chance
somebody like you

[metub4]

things are changin now

and I can't tell where I'll be

from here on from now

[Angharad]

Love this, M!

[metub4]

talented artist

popular guest by others

will hear more of him......

[Angharad]

i couldn't bounce back
you came along and saved me
with your perfect love

(To My D., of course.)

[Angharad]

you are in my blood
i could drink a case of you
still be on my feet

[Angharad]

how does life go on
why does the sea rush to shore
now you've said goodbye

[Angharad]

never growing old
glued together body, soul
they rise up golden

I will always love you, Draughn.

[Angharad]

YIKES! So many videos have disappeared! Hopefully it won't keep happening...but, just in case, the song I'm posting is, "Maybe You'll Be There," by Frank Sinatra.

i search every crowd
watching for your loving smile
maybe you'll be there

i hear a footstep...
if all my prayers are answered
maybe you'll be there

[metub4]

I'll be seeing you

in all familiar places

take this heart of mine

always think of you

I'll  find you in morning sun

when the night is new

[Angharad]

One of my favorites, M.  It really tugs at the heart strings, doesn't it?

[metub4]

yes it does    dear A

an unforgettable tune

and still great for all
