He Brought the FUNK to the Dome

On our feet
Rocking from side to side.
Feel good music blasting through our left and right ear drum.
Catching beats,
reminiscing about each memory the song took us back to.
Time stood still.
From face to face 
just happiness and love spread
throughout the Super Dome
and it was like without warning he was exiting.
Us, the whole crowd not ready for his departure started to hum.
It was like some unseen choir director had us on cue in unison humming Purple Rain.
We called him back not with our voices but with his music.
He heard us and came back out to bring more FUNK. 


His music is timeless. His music will always bring him back to us.

Happy National Haiku Poetry Day- April 17th

I wrote several haikus today to celebrate National Haiku Day. Enjoy! I challenge you to pen some haikus.
#1
Fears alter people
Taking the less risky path
to avoid what ifs

#2
She was his true love
Stimulated her
mind and her heart first

#3
Flows through my body
reacting to each target
removing all pain
