Poppies, Sails ’n Dreams
O’er Gulf of Maine’s blue, a gull soars high ’n free …
poppy blessed Isles of Shoals scattered far below.
As a sail-rigged skiff slips silently alee,
days-of-yore dreams through my voyager’s soul flow.Richard Jenkins

Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Duende. So glad you connected with the write my friend. It was sung really heavy in that chorus, ended by a nice growl on “Door.” It was a great song in my mind, too bad I never had a copy of the recording. Appreciate you.

The way you wove through this, highlighting a sense of being dragged along & out of control…whether in your mind or in the world, really weighs heavily. That repetition of being locked in creates a weight that is palpable. Powerful piece, my friend

Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Willow. So glad you connected with these lyrics my friend. It’s still one of my favorite pieces, these were lyrics I was proud of, when they got music it was a warmth I can’t explain in my heart. I still sing this forgotten song, just to remember it. The guitar riff is faint memory, there is enough there to remember how I sung it. This is a song, Joey G, would never let me have my own copy of. I’m not going there right now. lol. He pisses me off to this day on certain issues. If I had a copy, I would have shared it proudly. Instead it has a home on some old hard drive somewhere, never to be heard. Sorry, about the tangent. lol. I missed your commentary, you get me stirred up sometimes. lol. Appreciate you.

Take an extravagant theme, add a big pinch of dark humour, a hint of weirdness, and use extraordinary writing skills and make a short, precise poem out of the ingredients – perfectly done, Keith ! xoxo

Hello Sappho. This piece came to me when I saw a younger couple arguing in their car. It looked heated and the two were verbally shouting at one another in a parking lot. Quite embarrassing as onlookers were staring. I don’t know what it was about or who was right or wrong. However, the young woman was really pretty. Sexy enough to take out to lunch. And a short poem was created. Thanks my loving friend. xoxxo
