“SUMMER NIGHT BLUES” by Bill Charles ~~~~ A summer’s night with you, just here, playing the blues… Soft words to you I sing ones I know of, or choose… Guitar plays with rhythm, flows like a gentle breeze… Sounds lurking, in my mind, inside me, to only tease… Listen to words, to believe, yours am I, this very night… A lover wanted close, will you stay, by candlelight… Just playing this 12 bar blues, strumming, wondering if you will… Tonight is when you’ll choose both hearts we’ll fulfill… ~~~~ |

I can relate to those blues they come in shades for all seasons. But there is something about the summertime that plays a different tune. 'Tis true. |

You are an utterly UTTERLY superb writer and this is fabulous. I always enjoy your writing this makes such a clear point about natural rhythm this positively sings to me. I can hear the music, play that funky music Wonderful writing truly wonderful You have to know I LOVE this one. Into my library darling man, i do hope the company suits you? Al the best poets are in MY library Love and warm stuff As always Mushy To give light to them that sit in darkness..... to guide our feet into the way of peace St John ch2 v1 |
