songs

those songs
the ones that make you raise your hands
wishing you had a sunroof
  glory

those songs
that make you crank the dial
van doors bouncing
with booming bass

those songs
you play over and over again
singing, crying, loving every chord

    There is always the piece of music that tugs at the emotions. One feels blessed to be given the privilege. Nicely B Ollie!

    Music touches sucha wide range of emotion.
    There are songs that make one person cry and another
    turn the dial. Effecting each in their own way.

    Your poem filled me with humming delight, and brought the memory of my one thousand and one favorite songs to my head. Love that feeling... evoked by "that song."

    Brother Ollie,

    I love music for all modes and moods. It inspires me and, at times I do feel that sense of uplift and raising the roof in praise..It is feelgood honey and makes darker times, ease towards lighter notes:)
    Keep trucking with music in both your cab and your heart!

    The Good Husband and I share a long history accented by many such songs. Your poem took me on a mental meandering of several. What a gift! Thank you.
