Poem
Before diving into the time machine for a nostalgic trip on my music video ‘Ring On My Line’ above, I invite you to read my preamble Sonnet below. Ring On My Line -The Golden Era of Doo Wop, Retro Revival If you've ever waited for a call that never came, ‘Ring On My Line’ will hit close to home. Take a trip back in time—no matter your age—into the golden era of Doo Wop and the boppy, haunting rhythms of the ‘50s and ‘60s. This song captures the bittersweet romance of waiting by the phone, heart pounding with hope, wondering if that special someone will call. It’s a love story, where jukebox tunes filled the air, diners were the place to be, and every unanswered ring told a tale of longing. So grab an ice-cream soda, turn up the volume, grab your partner, let nostalgia take over, and dance to the retro Doo Wop beat, you’ll enjoy it.. Note: You can also follow the lyrics by clicking on the CC (closed caption) on the video itself above our on my YouTube Channel Beneath the silver hush of midnight’s sigh, the quiet stars refuse to blink her name Moon - You vigilant observer from above Your indifference lingers just the same. A drum with a hollow sound, my beating heart each second stretched, each ring less second cold. I strain to hear her verse, but none are found, in the quietude of a glimmer not made whole. Hope strains a fragile thread, pulled tight, will love return, or do I wait in vain? Time elongates the qualms I feel inside Motionless yet its silence sparks my pain. Oh, ringtone, let mercy find my ears, or let me waft in love’s fickle fears.
