Rock and Roll Beat

A poem inspired by songs with rock and roll in the title

By Rasma RaistersPublished about a year ago 1 min read

What are these thoughts on my mind?

Like grasping fingers

Holding on tight

Music with a beat

Somewhere from long ago

In my memory

Feet longing to stray

And do a dance step or two

What are these thoughts on my mind?

Wanting to put on my blue suede shoes.

*

Put on a rock and roll tune

While my feet tap

And a smile bright and sappy

What are these thoughts on my mind?

Old-fashioned rock and roll music

I long for the melodies

That come to me

On the breeze

Blowing through the trees

Give me rock and roll music

Inspire me

All those years of growing up

To that rock and roll beat

Nothing inspires

Like the rock and roll masters

Tunes that never grow old

And never go out of style

It's gotta be rock and roll music

If you want to dance with me

Give me that rock and roll beat

Fill my mind with songs that are neat

Just gotta be rock and roll music

To inspire me

Get me on the floor

Out the door

Smiling listening to rock and roll
