Listening to every heart

Vintage Songs

call me easy
if you will
but I love music
that rolls over hills

I have a favored
little play
it sort of waves me
through my day

morning, noon
or night
tunes careen me
on endless flight

is it my vintage years
that accept the
sweet melody

or my vintage ears
just hearing a
heart’s harmony

the soft and sweet
trill of composition
allows my thoughts
to envision
starlit skies
evening walks
quiet talk
a surround of arms
awakening of charms
a sweet caress
a certain bless
sunshine morns
heaven’s horns
a coffee mate
as morning
glories adorn
a gate

all come forth
on the charms
in the arms
of the melody
which swarms
my mood
and you smile
as though
you understood

aha…
just as I knew
you would….

for you are
vintage, too

so what your saying is...
we are all oldies but goodies *L*
poetically speaking OF COURSE

very cool write Sun...
love the word Vintage ...
and yes..the held dear favs that linger in our heads and hearts are always the songs that make us feel this way.

oh you speak to me in riddles
and you speak to me in rhymes
my body aches to breathe your breath
your words keep me alive

I hear the vintners saying - "Ah yes - it was a very good year" = As we know it was - and on into the future - we know it will be.

You come up with so many clever ideas...I like this one very much...

"the soft and sweet
trill of composition
allows my thoughts
to envision
starlit skies
evening walks
quiet talk
a surround of arms
awakening of charms
a sweet caress
a certain bless
sunshine morns
heaven’s horns
a coffee mate
as morning
glories adorn
a gate"


"and you smile
as though
you understood

aha…
just as I knew
you would….

for you are
vintage, too"

Just how did ya know?!?!

The poet is like a cocoon; in him the caterpillar of the past finds rest, and from him the butterfly of the future emerges.
