Memories of a Beach Boys Concert

They performed again 
       the aging Beach Boys
Conjuring up seaside 
       utopias
Caught their act 
             years ago 
  at Madison Square Garden 
I remember a pretty young girl 
                   -a bit drunk-
  was kissing me during the 
show 
    The life we led has 
magical moments 
     which face into the box of memroy 
   Remembering days and "nights"(!)
                at the beach 
I pass into a nostalgic haze 
   escape briefly 
from the worlds of science and tehnology 
  into a soft bubbles of joy         -

soft bubbles of joy. YEs, that would be it for Beach boys!! Those ARE good memories. I was a kid when they came on the scene, but I sure enjoyed their surf beat!! Nice nostalgia for us.
