SONG POEM #5

Please forgive me Lord, for I know not what I do! This one is kinda bad, my performance I mean. I did one take love it or leave it. I am really trying to stay true to some of the Song Poem rules of thumb: Don't ever do more than one take, and don't spend too long on any one song! But I don't have hundreds of poems rolling in either. Oh well, the beauty of these tunes is their total rawness, and total lack of commercial appeal! The words here are great though, thanks to Trademark G. over at The Evolution Control Committee, an ode to a librarian love of his past.

"From Aardvark to Zythum" Poem By TradeMark G.

I remember the day
When I first did lay
My eyes on your spectacled face
Topped with blond curls
Reading Funk & Wagnall's
At the library of Orsonville Place

I felt my jaw drop
As you looked up
Some word beginning with I
And I said "S'cuse me,
How 'bout you 'n' me
Look up something beginning with You."

When I think of your love
A to Z's not enough
I love you from Aardvark to Zythum!
Aardvark, my love!
Zythum, my love!
I love you from Aardvark to Zythum!

Now I love U
And U love I
But I and U aren't enough!
Not I to U,
But A to Z -
And even THAT'S not enough!

When I think of our love
A to Z's not enough
I love you from Aardvark to Zythum!
Aardvark, my love!
Zythum, my love!
I love you from Aardvark to Zythum!

Thank you Trademark G.!
