FOR POETRY

  You came  and my heart skipped a beat you make me fly like a bird I never thought  this vibration could exist when we first met my eyes couldn"t take  a look off you I paid attention  to your every single behavior laughed at your every joke when we first met Could it be love?

What's the matter with  the way we look? surely it's not the end, I've only meant to make  my emotions clear, you worry too much if I understand, should we be seen as friends, seems like a real  good beginning  is right here, when your heart is weak, I'm going to pick the lock on it, my fingertips won't fail me, no matter what you do. The love you can not see yet, it's about to witness a dawning and you can twist and turn, but you won't get loose, better forget getting rid of me, I don't see how you can, you put me off  and I will hunt you down again, I'm mighty patient  when I have to be, you have given me that, still I look forward  to the day you let me in.

Here I'm again in this mean old town and you're so far away from me, where are you when the sun goes down? You're so far away from me. So far away from me, I just can't see, I'm tired of being in love  and being all alone, I'm tired of making out on the telephone, because you're far away from me. I get so tired  when I have to explain, see you've been in the sun  and I've been in the rain.

  If you ever plan to motor west, take the highway that's the best, get your kicks on Route 66. It winds from Chicago to L. A , more than many miles all the way, get your kicks on Route 66. It goes to St. Louis,  down to Missouri, Oklahoma City  looks so pretty, if you get hip to this kind of trip, get your kicks on Route 66.
