'' SING ME A SONG TONIGHT''

THE FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH MUSIC

FUNCTIONAL BICEPS

BELLY BLOATING REDUCTION

LIPOSUCTION

BOTOX

GRAVITY PILLS

WONDER BARS

AND WONDER YEARS

NOTHING WILL ERASE

NOTHING WILL TRANSORM

A WITHERED SOUL

A SAGGING SPIRIT

OR  A  GLUCOSE GLOOM

IF  WE CAN BUT SING  

ONE SONG OF OUR MEMORY

OF LOVE OR GOOD TIMES

SING IIT LOUD OR PLAY IT SOFTLY

PERHAPS 

WE CAN ACCEPT AND BE A

HAPPPY SOUL

EVEN FOR A MOMENT

DESPITE

LIFE'S TOLL

Author's Note

TAKE A WOMAN OF 100 LET HER SING YOU ARE MY SUNSHINE OR ANOTHER SONG LONG GONE AND SHE WILL SMILE LIKE SHE IS SIXTEEN

[Coyote Poetry]

I liked this poem. I miss the days of my grandmother song and my grandfather laughter. I agree with your thoughts. Song, laughter and smiles. The gold of life. Thank you Marilyn for sharing your wonderful words and thoughts.

Yes indeed, I think it was Shakespeare who said, ' if music be the food of love, let the band play on '

Your note is real...

The poem started-off sounding like some late-night info-commercials. Though I think you nailed the smile at the end.

[marilyn 1225]

I think that was my intention in the beginning all those commercials for beautification bah humbug was what I was trying to say instead take the song that made u happy sing it and smile thanks so much for your comment and your last sentence from an imperfect wanna be poet

[Chris]

Our imperfection makes us human and that gives us a chance to touch the face of God...

[marilyn 1225]
