Reflections in a Double Doo Wop

I drove my love to the airport today.
Her heart now beats A Thousand Miles Away.

Over the Mountain, Across the Sea,
We have an Unchained Melody.

In the Still of the Night I put music on,
And listened to some doo wop songs.

C, A minor, F, then G,
Put me in a maudlin key.

My heart became a little blue.
All I want is Only You.

I should probably change this song.
Perhaps a Rama Lama, Ding Dong?

  1. This is good; creative and thoughtful using the various song titles. Now on to the next subject or theme. I think one could almost write an epic poem using song titles. But I'm sure you have a short story, Princeton or Illini narrative or even a novel in your head. I'll look forward to reading whatever you create.
