Sunlit Thoughts

Sun-baked

brown, burnt

hill.

Dead,

Crunchy,

Greying,

Pine needles.

Shield me,

From the

Chaotic sound

Of the world,

Packed into

Their cars

Gliding by.

I am

Ponderous

In the sunlight.

Watching the world

Pass,

In a warm,

Beer laden haze.

Where

Do they go?

Why

Must they rush?

A smile,

A sip,

And my mind

Moves

to other

Sunlit Thoughts.

The Music Of The Band

Scream and wail!

Send that beautiful Music

Through the air.

 

Make me close my eyes,

And sway along.

Make me abandon

All inhibition, and dance.

 

Let me forget

for a while.

Light my day

With a thoughtful smile.

 

Sing to me

Of shared pain.

Remind me through song,

Of forgotten happiness.

 

Transport me

To another realm.

Where emotion,

and the soul are guides.

 

I want to

Float here.

In the waves

Of your music.

 

Free my mind,

Allow it to wander untethered.

And for this,

I will always give homage

To your creation.
