reflection is my sanctuary, a place to savor
time while twirling tender thoughts gently
in my mind -
embracing excitement within,
and this sweet taste of love

but at this moment,
i long to r e p l a y
a familiar tune
on a vintage turntable

________

while thinking of you
_____________

somehow it brings me closer,
so curl around me and s t a y
---*---

~ ~ because we belong ~ ~
in rhyme and in song

Oh yes,I love the old songs too.In just a few words, you have a wonderful way of stimulating the imagery, Brandy. The Platters come to mind, and so does my parents' vintage turntable. Now I wish I'd kept that. A fave for the memories...Hugs

Dear Maria, I seem to get lost in the melody, especially when evening falls. Music takes me to another time and place. It's beautiful, dreamy and romantic. Older songs seem to create a tender mood. I appreciate your lovely comment and the compliment about how my words paint such a vivid picture. Excellent choice, the Planters. Maybe you can get a turntable, so you can enjoy those memories. Thank you for placing this in your favorites, my dear sweet friend. :) Hugs, Brandy

so curl around me and s t a y ---*--- ~ ~ because we belong ~ ~ in rhyme and in song . So sweet and gently passionate. Rhyme and song can connect hearts and sweet memories of love spring forth in the heart when one sits alone in one's favorite sanctuary. Lovely poem, dear Brandy!

Dearest Brandy, I certainly was glad to find your newest poem and yes what a beautiful way to capture the delicate balance between excitement and calm just like a secret place where time slows just enough to breathe and feel fully alive. It’s like how music transforms to a bridge pulling me closer to the heart of what matters most. Poetry isn’t just about expression but about connection how rhyme and song can hold us together. Even when we’re apart. Summer Blessings, My Dear Brandy, Hugs, Daniel

Dearest Daniel, you know how music can create such a beautiful mood. It certainly does for me. More of a romantic and playful mood, yet tender and loving too. Your comment is captivating and you leave me in complete awe. Thank you for all your kind words and for the compliments as well. Summer blessings to you. Hugs along the wind. :) Brandy

Another beautiful scribble my dear friend. The vintage song that comes to mind as I read these words is Till by The Letterman. The rhyme and the song seem to go hand in hand. Warm hugs, John

Brandy Nicole
Date: 7/13/2025 5:47:00 PM

John, I listened to the song that comes to your mind while reading my words, and it's so beautiful and romantic. Seems to fit. It certainly goes along with the others that I've been listening to. Thank you for being you, for always sharing your kind words here with me. My best to you, my dear sweet friend. :) Hugs, Brandy

Sweetly romantic and sensual, your trademark. So what vintage tune is swirling around your head of late? Any hints?

Brandy Nicole
Date: 7/12/2025 10:03:00 AM

@Keith, ' I'm not too sexy for my shirt. ' Oh, and I'm smiling and blushing at the reference to Jessica Rabbit. :)

Brandy Nicole
Date: 7/12/2025 9:45:00 AM

Always romantic and sweet. Sensual too. That's just me. :) As far as what tune is lingering in my mind, a moment of ' I get weak, and, ' I'm lost in your eyes. ' Just to name a few. :)

Keith D Trestrail
Date: 7/12/2025 6:29:00 AM

Hmm, no offence but you’re not exactly Jessica Rabbit the way she does her little turn on the catwalk. Brandy, help me out here.

Tom Woody

Hey, that's my song!

Aw, so gentle, tranquil and beautiful! Isn't it amazing how music transports us to other times? I miss my old turntable, I loved our collection of vinals and there was something so magical about watching the needle in the grooves as the turntable gently spun, captured music and song joyfully vibrating through mega speakers :) <3

Brandy Nicole
Date: 7/12/2025 9:34:00 AM

Music truly inspires me, in so many wonderful ways. I enjoy being swept away to another time and place. So surreal indeed, watching the needle move while the tune escapes. My father still has many of his records. Maybe you need to get you another turntable, my dear friend. :) Thank you do much B.J. for your lovely comment. Your thoughts are appreciated. My best to you. :) Hugs, Brandy
