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]

To my Draughn, the love of my life:

i have found my way
though at times it seemed too far
love is where you are

[metub4]

mercy, mercy me

things ain't what they used to be

where'd the blue skies go

[Angharad]

bitter the parting
lovers profoundly entwined...
time's river flows on

[Angharad]

be still foolish heart
you've been wrong in love before
don't be wrong again

[Angharad]

gifts from you to me
expressing your love in song
windows to your soul

Thank you, Beloved.

[Angharad]

island in my dreams
sometimes i think i'm like you
but i'm not alone

[Angharad]

Listening to Mel Carter lately. What a pure voice. And how deeply emotional. 

This is, of course, for My Beloved.

you alone create
this burning need, this yearning
be my love always

[Angharad]

little band of gold
the only coin i value
a sign of your love

[Angharad]

shower the people...
love cascading down on you
every day i live

[Angharad]

living for your love
a lover like no other
paradise within

[Angharad]

awake and alone
i look at the stars above
and dream of your love

Bad video--nice version of the song...

[Angharad]

how far would i roam
to be wherever you are?
how far to a star?

if i should lose you
how many tears would I cry?
how deep's the ocean?
