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

[Scott Williamson]

..just want to get out,

but, tonight I want to stay (in)

believe me mama...

This is another of the countless songs that My Beloved sent to me to express his love.  The music that is him courses through me...

 

smiling, laughing eyes

you're so beautiful tonight

it will never change

 

friends through rain or shine

i'm so lucky to love you

i was made for you

I will love you forever, M'Annsachd.

Now I'm sitting here

Sipping at my ice cold beer

Sunny Afternoon

 

 

[metub4]

so tired of waiting

it's your life do what you want

you keep me waiting

 

[Angharad]

lonely in your place

such lonely eyes, lonely face

and i still love you

Missing you, Beloved...reaching out to you.

 

[metub4]

walk through the garden

walk the straight and naroow track

gonna save your soul

 

keep close to the Lord

don't heed to temptation

keep the devil down

 

 

 

[Angharad]

[Angharad]

One of my all-time favorite singers...

Truer words couldn't be spoken, Mo Dhuine.

 

whatever i do

i'll never stop loving you

our love will endure

[Angharad]

the water is wide

i cannot see or cross o'er

neither have i wings...

 

a ship sails the sea

she's loaded deep as can be

but my love's deeper

 

so build me a boat

both shall row, my love and i

'til love's waters end

 

[metub4]

his voice is still sweet

lyrics keep hitting a chord

after all these years

[metub4]

not old and not today

lyrics left for beholder
