In the poetic confessions of my heart; I become filled with love and hope. Although I begin to type other words, a song begins to play in my mind. I ignore it at first, but eventually it consumes my thoughts. I don’t know the song well, but a chorus keeps playing over and over, “just an old fashioned love song”. I have to find it and when I do, I begin to laugh….
Just an old fashioned love song
Playin’ on the radio
And wrapped around the music
Is the sound of someone
Promising they’ll never go
Just an old fashioned love song
Comin’ down in three part harmony
One I’m sure they wrote for you and me *
I am enamored of the “old fashioned love song” written for me long ago.
* Lyrics by Three Dog Night, Old Fashioned Love Song
