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

europa - so sweet
Carlos guitar strings singing
mood sounds for loving

feeling half past dead
I pulled into Nazereth
where can lay my head

take load off Fanny
and put the load right on me
take a load for free

Mississippi Queen
you know she was a dancer
you know what I mean

[metub4]

you were in my life
everything was wonderful
we were on a roll

cracks in the sidewalk
moon don't shine, it's broken down
since you left me girl

getting to the point
where I'm no fun anymore
I must cry out loud

I'm yours, you are mine
don't let the past remind us
of what we're not now

[Angharad]

love as old as time
ancient images fill me
black is the color...

[metub4]

always liked her sound
lyrics alive with life's zeal
one more fav from old

[Angharad]

yes, you understand
just how true the lyrics are
love worth living for

love worth dying for
filling my heart with beauty
and my soul with hope

[Angharad]

you're the light, the heat
i am complete in your eyes
fruitless searching done

"

[metub4]

easy if you try
imagine there's no heaven
no hell below us

above only sky
imagine all the people
living life in peace

[Scott Williamson]

A sky with no clouds,
I've been thru the desert on
a horse with no name

It felt good to be
out of the rain, in desert
You can remember

your name 'cause there ain't
no one for to give you no
pain - la la la la

(Ode to Walter, BR BA)

[metub4]

it's foggy outside
all the planes have been grounded
and the fire inside?

let's stand around it
funny, I've been there, you here
no time to drink beer

cause I understand
you've been runnin from the man
by name of Sandman
