You and I

image

The radio dial is turned
And the notes of music past
Fills the quiet air
Taking me back to that time
When you and I
You and I
You and l
Were finding our way
Feeling our way
Loving our way
And I wondered
Would you and I?
Would we be?
And I hear those notes
Soulful, stirring, moving me
To those times
Of you and I

Flashback Friday

My favorite song from 1989, playing on the radio as I type 🙂

Moments Away

Moments away
When you are far
When you are near
Where ever you may be
You will always be
Only moments away
From these arms

*limited posts until the 4th jan
Wishing everyone all the best*

My First Love

Each day when falling the first time in love
That crazy, mixed up place
Secretly, when no words can be said
I would hear these words on the radio
And I knew, I just knew this would be our song
Just a short while, the best will be saved for last
Butterflies in my tummy!

In response to The Daily Post’s writing prompt: “Cause, Meet Effect.”

Procrastinating

Just in case you haven’t heard
Enough of carols wherever you may turn
Allow me to share my favorite
Christmas Tune with you
Takes me back to when I was ten
And a Boney M audio cassette did I receive
Along with a red and black walkman player
(Remember them? Anyone?)

I should be working now
This post is me procrastinating
If I do not respond to any comments or likes
It is because my head is buried in
Eclipse, Java and Springframework
Bring on the coffee
Bring on the love
Shoulder massages?
Should I be so lucky?

Fragile

Flowers offered in peace
To do what flowers do best
Offering comfort
Offering relief
But none is taken
None is found
Because there is no balm
When three young hearts
Farewell their mother
And parents lose their son
New week’s morning transformed into a
Lifetime of mourning

Snow Globe

Beautiful stars
Twinkle at night
Dance in the shadows
Of the moonlight

(Collaboration poetry between my daughter and I – I wanted Glittering Stars, No Mom – Beautiful stars, ok)
