PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

you've got my unearthed soul burning ever

more bright

twirling wildly about as if atop a broken

axle through out a long summer's night

knocking out meteor's lights as it softly

sings

like old dark haired Diamond, Neil himself

it tells of sweet and special things

like love's sad yet sweet surprise

found in the warm dreams of one's youth

or what disillusionment love can bring

to one's self esteem after an exhausting

bout with an evening's bottle of Vermouth

then I listen to Barry when Neil can not seem

to bring me far enough down

for this road of invented heartache (I'm almost

sorry to say) is not long enough for me

to one composer of tragedy

so singularly honor bound...............
