Mi-tunes are emotional

Bob Dylan makes me angry
Santana makes me sigh
Neil Young’s songs inspire me
Puccini makes me cry
Cohen’s words are magical
Vaughan Williams’s lark a gem
Nina Simone tugged my heartstrings
The Bonzo’s remember them?
America’s Sister Goldenhair
Mike Oldfield’s Ommadawn
The Moodies flew me into space
Donovan as you were born
Van the Man when he was young
Satchmo getting mellow
Be Good Tanyas heavenly
Springsteen that raucous fellow
The Four Tops when I met you
Miserere when my father died
Free for wailing guitar riffs
Arlo when I lied
So mi-tunes are emotional
Each one a fractured track
I could have lived another life
Without ever looking back
