Thunder Rumbles It's too late for spring rain the fall has come it's too late for growth of grain the fall has come it's too late but skies now fill and thunder rolls along white gray blackened clouds now whirl and the thunder rolls but it's too late for us [boom boom] too late for us it's too late for us [boom boom] and the thunder rolls [boom boom] and the rumble rolls [boom boom] come again you, yesterday come again you now come again you yesterday come and see just how it's too late for us too late for us [boom boom] too late for us [boom boom] and the rumble rolls Simon's in my heart Simon's in my soul it's too late for us and the thunder rolls and the rumble rolls CD played strong and long CD played it loud CD played Simon's song and I'll bet he's proud but it's too late for us [boom boom] too late for us [boom boom] the beat goes on and it's too late for us [boom boom] If you could hear this beat and hear the drummin' song before long you'd tap your feet and spread this song along but it's too late for us [boom boom] too late for us [boom boom] it's too late for us [boom boom] and the rumble rolls and the rumbles rolls ~~~~~~~~~~ and the rumble ~~~~~~~~~~ rolls. Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?...KRJ |

Karilea~ WOW ! Felt the rumble heard the song Grabbed me singing took me along Sent me scurrying for cover Thunder rolls in constant hover But it's never too late it's never too late Boom - boom crashing sealed our fate It's never too late It's never too late *Well, my stars ... look what you went and did ! Thank you poet ! I guess I'd have to confess to hearing this one loud and strong. Wonderful job, Karilea. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |

Karilea, there is not only a song in there, I heard it and now the music's in my head aaaaarrgh! Absolutely, fabulously, lyrically mastered piece. Be well Kethry Growth demands a temporary surrender of security. Gail Sheehy |

Karilea, I heard it loud and strong, amazing, I really like this, no I love this. What did I say, full to the brim with talent, how can you doubt that!! This screams class, absolutely shouts it from the rooftops. This is a great poem, it truly is. Take care Marsha |

hhhmmmmm...me thinks you have a need to listen to Chad Brock's "Lightning Does The Work". Either that or you have been listening to it already. This is beautiful and it should be a song. I do love a good storm and this one sounds like one heck of a good one. |

No Mark, I don't know the song you refer to, maybe I should listen first, and decide if this rates as a song later... thanks for reading... Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?...KRJ |

Argh...I hate it when I get a song stuck in my head! But I think I won't mind singing this one for awhile... (Watch tonite at my friend's I'll just bust out with "It's too late for us [boom boom]" and they're gonna be like "What the-?!")Beautiful poem, got me thinking of storms and Garth Brooks. Much love all, Krissie ~*Those words... Oh, how I long to hear ...those words Tell me...*~ |

I want to thank everyone who has responded. Paul Simon's The Rhythm of the Saints is partly responsible for this piece...if you haven't heard this CD, I would vote for you to go borrow it or locate it...well worth listening to! Vicky, there's indeed the "tap tap" of the beat! You've got it! Ron, no, you need not... AniKay, I wish you could hear the song that plays in my head!...I can't get rid of it...[note to self: contact brother who's in the music biz...] Charisma...I won't trade you my Neil Diamond experience, but the next time you know there's a Simon concert...clue me in... thank you everyone... Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?...KRJ |
