Moonlight, Magnolias and Jasmine ( lyrical poetry)
There's a rising moon above the magnolias, Jasmine scent filtering through the air,
Carried on a Summer breeze, among tall pine trees, sure do wish that I was there.
Special time down in Georgia, precious memories, a southern boy can truly share.
Crickets and frogs chirping, night birds sing, no finer music, can only be as rare.
Refrain:
A guitar plays a Summer serenade, and for every note and chord that is made,
Fireflies blink in time, every good reason, is a rhyme, in moonlit night's parade.
Now a golden moon over the river, old blues giver, seems to cast its magic spell,
Guitar man strumming all he can, singing in the news, chords ringing mighty well.
Wild cat prowls, now stalking, River birds are walking, all along the sandy shore,
Big fish a jumping, grey cranes trumpeting, a hoot owls call seems to ask for more.
A guitar's playing its Summer serenade, for every note and chord that is made,
Fireflies blink in time, every good reason has a rhyme, in a moonlit night parade.
What a pleasure. this Summer night, beneath the sky, so brilliant, so bright,
Old man in the moon, pouring his beams on with a spoon, shinning just right.
A rich melody, casting its sounds with clarity, pleasantly sooths the inner soul,
As this down home pot pouri, being all that it can be, its true beauty to unfold.
A guitar playing its Summer serenade and .for every note and chord that's made,
Fireflies blink in time, every good reason, a rhyme, in this moonlit night parade.
This special time down in Georgia land, bringing precious memories all so grand,
Just look and listen, if you've never been there, missing, then you'll understand,
White magnolia blossoms, aromatic bliss, on your face, kiss, in the month of June,
Round orb in the sky, pleases the eye, you can be there, by and by, to be in tune.
Refrain:
A guitar playing its summer serenade, and for every note and chord that's made,
Fireflies blink in time, every good reason, a rhyme, in this moonlit night parade.
My moon light, Magnolias, and Jasmine serenade.
