timmy's poetry - 77. Tupelo Honey

Memories

dragged from the depths by Tupelo Honey

Wanna joint or a cigarette now

Lay back and get high,

listen to Van the man, the Van man

Sometimes the old life calls

Like the sun on a summers day

Days spent in bed, never alone

But always lonely

And high, high, high

A kite with no string

Who wants to fly the boy next?

Just lay your money down

Tell him you love him

And for the next few minutes

He is yours

Who said money can't buy you love?

 

__________________________

 

Peace is found in quiet spaces

Where gentle waters flow

Harmony is in the love we make

On quiet Sunday morns

Love is shelter from the storm

And home is in Your arms

 

____________

Tupelo Honey by Van Morrison sorry for the late additional piece...

Thank you for reading.

Powerful and evocative words. This makes me sad and wish for what should have been, not what was. Knowing you made it out and to something beautiful, tempers that feeling.

I read each poem, and they compelled me to read them over and over before I could comment. The first one plays cinematic images in my head, one quick, brutal scene after another. But the second, perfectly placed beneath the first, is the calm pool after the rapids, the sunlit afternoon after the night time storms. These are paired brilliantly.

thanks Parker.  was listening to music... brought back memories. xo

Music can move us, and remind us. This few hours with the great Van Morrison certainly did for you. Well done but heartbreaking poem.  It's been a difficult few days for you. When you are in my arms, I know you feel safe, I can feel the tension drain from you. Remember your collar when you feel stress boy, touch it and I am with you. I love you boy and I will do so always. 

thank You, Sir xo  the collar does bring comfort..
