I Wrote A Song And It Woke Me Up

June 8, 2011

can’t remember the words

they’re lyrics i never have heard

still they sounded so neat in a melody sweet

written for someone i may or not meet.

 

it was shared in a rhythmic space

circular motion the time in the place

was it worth the daring?  question way beyond caring

soul upon sleeve  ready wearing

 

the one near my side sung unusually

from warmth of  low notes to high coolly

rust revealing the wealth stuck on long ago shelf

moved me to add thoughts the shape of myself

 

pure sound that encompassed all seasons

poured forth with no hint of known reasons

it was simply a stair from inside to mid air

from a voice most surprisingly fair

 

all at once i was speaking  rhyme

syllables one at a time

fitting the sounds i was hearing in rounds

wondering who this was for human bound

 

the pairing united in song

uncharted, unplanned feelings strong

it was may -no- september-heck, i can’t remember

awake…

it’s gone off on its own!

I used to miss getting postcards

Next I  missed getting letters

Then I missed getting phone calls

Now I miss getting E-Mails

Down to texting,  and I find myself old enough to now miss half of the alphabet

Out upon our way

Sometimes the world crashes in

Unmercifully

A Resounding Q

Is it ok to fall into silence and not know how to get out?

I think the answer may be yes.

And softly so.

Green all around me

Spring colors in profusion

So why am I blue?
