DAY 60 - Hot Night Small Town 1964

HOT NIGHT SMALL TOWN 1964


I remember a crazy wild
summer night in my hometown,
air heavy with the smell
of June roses and burning rubber,
speeding down a lonesome
two-lane highway,
cigarette smoke stinging
his steel blue eyes, me
blowing bubblegum-bubbles,
white lines flying past
faster than falling in love
when you're seventeen.



Notes:
I confess that I tend to get stuck in the 60s.
I love the music, and I love my memories.
At the time, it was hard finding my way.
But looking back, it all seems sweet and lovely.
Pipeline by The Chantays, 1963
