Music in Mind… Thanks to My Fan
Flip on a fan
and in its breeze
vague Beach Boys harmonies
No lyrics, simply voices
floating through my mind
Open a window
and birdsong reigns
with backup vocals
from faraway sirens
in my stream of consciousness
Is it the meds?
Hallucinations?
No worries here; they are
benevolent offspring of
my inner sanctum of melody
Don’t switch off that fan, honey
It’s singing my song…

How good it is to hear laughter and music wherever you are and wherever you look. Isn’t life great!

For the love of the Beach Boys! ‘Surfing USA’ lingers on in memory! One of the many catchy tunes. Yes,even without lyrics, humming it is itself ecstatic. Thanks for the memory Amy!

I hear music EVERYWHERE. The bell of the elevator. Car horns. Can I sing harmony with that?

For awhile we had so many fans going it got on my last nerve but for you seems a different melodious point of view.

You make me think of Little Richard, who said he used to lie in bed at night & listen to the train going by & wrote his music to its rhythmic sounds…
