Gordon Mcconnell Poet Rhyme

Pick Your Personal Selection

Music, music is everywhere
filling one's ears to the brim
so many radio stations to hear
select your taste by a button

Especially difficult when you like all types
which one do you decide to choose?
maybe a day on each of your favourites
well just 'let the lady sings the blues'

Personally, it would be some classical
either Mozart, Vivaldi or some Handel
but I've diverse tastes in my music
Emmylou, Dolly and Linda R ring my bell

In recent days I've begun to really love
Irish and Scottish Gaelic music so much
I can't speak the language but love the sound
it's got a lilt really catchy to a touch

As one grows one's music  changes
the taste buds take on sounds in a new light
but its still music to the now dull ears
gifted from God music takes you a higher flight

Lindsay Laurie August 20, 2019 at 8:27 PM G'day Gordon … I did enjoy your verse. I have never cared about music much, however, if I hear songs from the seventies it takes me back to think about those times. A tune inside the head never leaves it appears. Thank you Gordon - Lindsay Gordon Mcconnell August 21, 2019 at 3:09 AM Thanks Lindsay, Glad you enjoyed it though unusual for somebody not caring for music but we're all different and not good that we would be all the same. Blessings, Gordon

Jan Allison August 20, 2019 at 3:33 PM I too love music of different styles, love rock, easy listening, classical and jazz I guess it depends on ones mood. Hubby has done compilations for the car and we never know what will come next:-) Hugs Jan xx Gordon Mcconnell August 20, 2019 at 3:39 PM Thanks Jan, Glad it brought you to have different musical tastes, I think it changes over the years too. By the way, had great 2 weeks at Southport though rained all the way home on Friday! Hugs and blessings, Gordon
