Like a rocket ship
It takes me back
To younger days
Towards my youth I flashback
Driving around in muscle cars
Sunny days and starlit nights
Listening to a song
A song called “Song of the Kite”
By a band named Private Lightning
Playing in south of Boston clubs
I’d hear it on the radio
And on my heart, it would tug
It’s about a radio DJ
By the name of Christopher Sky
Up high above he’s entranced
At the sight of a beautiful kite
Mesmerized for months in silence
He one day returns to the airwaves
Full of wonderful admiration
Of world love in his gaze
Over and over, he says
“There is love in the world”
And it always makes me smile
As I’m reminded of a certain girl
I know the feeling he must have felt
Seeing love in a kite with a tail a mile long
There is love in the world
Especially in that song

As with you Andy, music has always been part of my life, from growing up with the Beatles to my adult years with The Moody Blues, Gordon Lightfoot, Glen Campbell and many others. Thanks for the read and comment Andy. 🎼🎶🎵
indeed, we need to remember
'there is love in the world'
whether our view of it, is distanced
blurred, or proximity clear
(great write, dear Poet
soothing warmth in a read
thank you!)
Thanks LB. That song literally takes me back to my early twenties when that song was being played on the Boston radio stations. One of those songs you can drift off into your imagination. 🎵
