listening to this
i will always be sixteen
it will always be saturday afternoon
in the music room
french doors open
on to a verandah
a gentle sea breeze blowing to
the distant thwack of tennis balls
from the court
on a summers day
at school
What a lovely memory. You took me right there. I could hear the thwack of the tennis balls on the court........
An idyllic scene! And redolent of a bygone era. You recreated it vividly.
How lovely! To be transported back to a sweet memory to the tune of these words.
Yes . I really can feel it . This memory from the years gone by. Beautifully captured in words
Wonderful! the nostalgia in today's poem. Thanks for the musicMuch💜love
cool - I need just such a room.
A lovely captured memory.
I mostly listen to modern music but I listened to a lot of Debussy as a teen-ager -- he really takes you to another place, a better one!
Music had that effect on the heart and soul. There are melodies that conjure my grandmother's face, her fingers braiding my hair... And others that remind me of less gentle times. Such a powerful lens, music.
you have captured the moment.if you like Debussy, you might like Roxane Elfasci's interpretations on classical guitar. ~
Oh, I love this memory of a summer day! "I will always be sixteen."Music has always had a strong effect on me. Like this.
I could listen to this all morning. Thank you.
I adore this memory poem -
