Listening to every heart

Sing to Me

Neil is on
As first he sings up
Then sweeps slow
Now deep, and low

Love grows
In his voice
No choice
Turn the TV off

So I may hear the words
Touch Replay
Touch soft

He says
One true love
Can turn it all around
Can take you to the light

Today I will shop
For that one red dress
Cut up to here…

Again and again
He asks
If he can come
Into my heart

I welcome him

He wails a forgiving
Plea
Wants to come
Back, to win my love,

I welcome him

He includes everyone
In his song
…still
He sings to me

He wants to get
Lost in my eyes
For a
Lifetime

I welcome him

Perhaps my poem
Would have 30 years
Of lasting appeal
If he sang … just one

Have you ever felt lost?
Perhaps as a teen?
As I did,
But not when

Neil sings

He has aged most gracefully,
So can I help it
If I wonder what he sees
In his mirror if it were
In my morning’s light

Do I care?  {See me smile…}

And I wonder
Are you man enough
…even though I think
You are

Would you?
Could you?

Play
Neil for me?

You know this is wonderful, and it's funny,  but I think this way about a favorite singer of mine

Being a died in the wool, hidebound Mariner fan.  I understand your play on words.  Great fun.  Joyce
