Poetry in motion Day 18 of 30 April is national poetry month and while I do follow along with my local library's daily selection, this year instead of writing my own poetry or sharing a classic of another, I am sharing songs, well lyrics of songs, that I consider pure poetry. Poetry in motion as it were. If you've been swept away by a poem, whether or not put music and can help sweep us away, please join in and share your ocean of emotion/poetry in motion as well. Special thanks drmgirl622, 4Faksake, jenny, mockyloks & tsarah, who have offered suggestions or shared their selections.....It is greatly appreciated! **POST IN COMMENTS DUE POOR SITE FEATURE MAINTENANCE** Sometimes I make a move, sorry to leave my home, but hope I will find another of equal character. At night I gaze at the starry mass with no idea to which one the earth attached. May'be that cute little one over there or that one that sits alone in the inky black. ~~ 'My place amongst the stars' c/o former member SPB ~~ |

We all have them don't we? Those poems as songs that roll over you like a tidal wave, making you close your eyes, open your ears, throw your head back and tune out the world as the tune itself drowns you in feeling! They can be sweet or sad, moving or numbing, quiet and gently stirring or fierce, fucked up and loud. I remember when, I remember when I lost my mind There was something so pleasant about that place Even your emotions have an echo in so much space And when you're out there, without care Yeah I was out of touch But it wasn't because I didn't know enough I just knew too much Does that make me crazy? Does that make me crazy? Does that make me crazy? Possibly And I hope that you are having the time of your life But think twice That's my only advice Come on now, who do you Who do you, who do you Who do you think you are? Ha ha ha, bless your soul You really think you're in control? Well I think you're crazy I think you're crazy I think you're crazy Just like me My heroes had the heart To lose their lives out on a limb And all I remember, is thinking I wanna be like them Mmhmm ever since I was little Ever since I was little it looked like fun And it's no coincidence I've come And I can die when I'm done But maybe I'm crazy Maybe you're crazy Maybe we're crazy Probably Gnarls Barkley "Crazy" Sometimes I make a move, sorry to leave my home, but hope I will find another of equal character. At night I gaze at the starry mass with no idea to which one the earth attached. May'be that cute little one over there or that one that sits alone in the inky black. ~~ 'My place amongst the stars' c/o former member SPB ~~

cuzi They are also powerful lyrics with which many of us could identify! I REALLY love this series - Than you (pic is not me) A life spent making mistakes is not only more honorable, but more useful than a life spent doing nothing. George Bernard Shaw Jenny

Walkin' After Midnight Patsy Cline (Wa-wa-walking, wa-wa-walking) I go out walkin' after midnight Out in the moonlight Just like we used to do, I'm always walkin' After midnight, searchin' for you (wa-wa-walking, wa-wa-walking) I walk for miles along the highway Well, that's just my way Of sayin' I love you, I'm always walkin' After midnight, searchin' for you (wa-wa-walking, wa-wa-walking) I stop to see a weepin' willow Cryin' on his pillow Maybe he's cryin' for me And as the skies turn gloomy Night winds whisper to me I'm lonesome as I can be I go out walkin' after midnight Out in the moonlight Just hopin' you may be somewhere a-walkin' After midnight, searchin' for me (Wa-wa-walking, wa-wa-walking) I stop to see a weepin' willow Cryin' on his pillow Maybe he's cryin' for me And as the skies turn gloomy Night winds whisper to me I'm lonesome as I can be I go out walkin' after midnight Out in the moonlight Just hopin' you may be somewhere a-walkin' After midnight, searchin' for me (wa-wa-walking, wa-ooh-ah) My all time favorite woman of country......

Wow, I love this! Thank you, sweetie for sharing it. I know there was a song by them I used to know, but for the life of me I don't remember what it was. No making fun of me either, mister like you do over my absolute love of absolutely beautiful love songs Sometimes I make a move, sorry to leave my home, but hope I will find another of equal character. At night I gaze at the starry mass with no idea to which one the earth attached. May'be that cute little one over there or that one that sits alone in the inky black. ~~ 'My place amongst the stars' c/o former member SPB ~~

Ah Godspell! Another 70's god rock classic that I love. Thank you for sharing sweet sarah! Hippies, singing everything, tender looks and Jesus. If this doesn't exemplify my formative years I don't know what does. Sometimes I make a move, sorry to leave my home, but hope I will find another of equal character. At night I gaze at the starry mass with no idea to which one the earth attached.
