Short Soft Rock Poems

Karen and Richard were a famous duo from the 70s
Of course, I mean “The Carpenters” part of our musical heritage
Karen's soothing voice
Richard's keyboard rejoiced
With a selection of laid-back soft-rock melodies...

I welcome the silence of falling snow
  the virginity of pure crystalline flakes
    gathering to frost my windowsills

But I watch while snuggled beside a fire
  a cup of cocoa and soft rock playing
    A warm hand to hold is all I need...

I was sitting on the dock of the bay listening to a song
when Otis Redding happened to come walking along.
He said, "You watching the ships roll in?"
I said, "Yeah, and then watching ‘em roll away again."
He said, "That stuff's really dug by some,
but I think it’s all pretty much ho-hum."

Friends have an open invitation, dusky sky, soft rock music~
It’s all part of the experience of barbecuing—I Am Anaya


Rustic charred mesquite fired up
Aromatic smoke 
Sweet guavas, fish, steak, grilling
Blazed creamed artichoke
Decadent pastry
Black Velvet
Lime

POEMS 16 IN MY ARMS 




IN MY ARMS ALL NIGHT LONG HOLDING YOU TIGHT. 

IN MY ARMS TELLING YOU LOVE ME. 

IN MY ARMS KNOW THAT YOU CAN PUT FAITH IN ME. 

IN MY ARMS I WILL BE YOUR SOFT ROCK & DWELLING PLACE. 

IN MY ARMS I WILL ALWAYS BE HERE FOR YOU BY YOUR SIDE.

A glass of champagne to soothe your soul
As I sway to the sweet soft rock and roll
In my arms I feel your heartbeat
So  sweet I remember it’s so complete

There is no need of sadness tonight
Or worrying about what is wrong or right
And it feels we are alone on the planet
Together in each other’s arms in a perfect moment .

We possess a harmonious imbalance;
A teetering of steadiness
Placed on a soft rock.

The night brings us so much light;
With my eyes closed, I see
You’re moving, but still.

Gently, I forcefully place my hands
Upon your wet, but dry being,
Drowning me in thirst.

The distance keeps us forever close;
In our minds, our bodies are one
Screaming quietly....

Hidden behind the clouds, trying to illuminate my dreary day
Simply a brush with the rays and I'm feeling much better
The closing of my eyes a new day has quickly begun
And again I'm "Catching The Sun"
Such a beautiful day on the way maybe soft rock, reggae, or jazz
I will play, no rain in the forecast,  to squeeze past
The autumn of love
I thought she was the only one, who could make me forget
Catching the sun......

When young I liked the hard, driving beat,
the heavy rock rhythm rocking the socks off my feet,
now preferring more soothing with less percussion,
violins and flutes and folk guitar I now get a rush from,

Having various cd's I listen to in my car night or day,
classical, folk, gospel and soft rock being more my forte,
throw in a little spanish guitar or even a Celtic tune,
a hodgepodge of easy listening music I often croon to.

seven feet
by eleven with
the deepest being
five feet well below
the freezing frozen time

needs
work the
waterfall doesn't
flow and the pump
seems not in proper order

but the 
rocks can 
be made and
moved to get the
best flow reasoning

the best
attitude for
your soft rock
mantra and don't
forget the lilies that

will grow
back if desired
covering half of the
pond so where algae
is not wanted won't be

take
it
or
leave
it as is...
