Haiku Friday: Listening to Music (holiday or other)

 


For about 30 years (!) I made a Christmas CD (actually, at the start it was cassette tapes). I didn't do that this year after a bevy of complaints that no one has a CD player and some about content. If I can find a better format, I might try again next year, but I took a year off.

But let's haiku about listening to music this week. Bonus points if you can identify the man pictured above. Here, I will go first:

Christmas Eve service
The light is passed in dark
I sing with feelings.

Now it is your turn! Just use the 5/7/5 syllable pattern, and have some fun!


Comments:
Mom’s an immigrant
who taught me to love country
music, slide guitars. (Des)
 
Spotify playlist
Means I have Christmas music
All year long. Love it!
 
a young David Bowie?

Music, most genres
is a constant companion
weaving through life
 
No Osler CD?!!!
Christmas will not be the same!
Waiting for Vinyl!
 
What's worse? Osler's Fake
Chipmunks, Mojo, French tunes; or
Dad's rockabilly?




 
It is mid-winter
But bleak? Singing souls
Wake bones to wonder.
 
City Sidewalks slip
My Taylor Swift shiny boots
I am flung earthward..
 
Do you hear what I
Hear? Singing in the car?
Angels on airwaves!
 
Silent, she rocks a
Babe in her arms,Night falls,God
Hums the same sweet.song
 
I dreamt lunch with Miss
Joni Mitchell and drank A
Case of Her, til morning came.
 
The music cleaned ears
Turned decibels LOUD,opened
Windows to share, bold!
 
I do not have a
Fever,in morning or night
Except when we kiss. (Thank you,Peggy Lee)
 
We still have a CD player
 
Not sure why this says Anon. This is my attempt.
 
Beloved collection of
Christmas rock CD’s: Beach
Boys, Buffet, Chesney.

And then, of course: Bing,
Frank, Tony, Harry, Nat King, and
the wonderful Amy.

And for some class: Boston
Pops, Mormon Tabernacle and,
Handle’s Messiah.

 
So many great Haiku.

That photo also looks like a young John Osler dressed as a casual punk with hair product.
