Steve Hackett at The Waterside

We sloshed through deep puddles

to find waterside

4 bars lots of people

A warm place to hide

Steve Hackett and friends

And a stage   Full of light

the artistry blending with

colours,  the height

of imaginative candour

Unendingly we
were immersed in their aura

And, passionately

Festooned  by  their magic
as  responses grew

a great buzz of  cheer
It truly worked  through

attitudes changed

mannerisms  too

rambunctious it took us

to places so new

the wisdom of knowing

the sound bar of fate

crescendo’s of interleaved

melodic gait.

heads nodding gyrations

song choices galore

the whine, the upheaval

the far away shore

the first book of Genesis

rocked in our veins

brutally calling

through the vast lanes

of darkness, the song choices

rabid and long

a soul staring bashfully

nothing felt wrong

the searing the endearing

we all did belong

light, clearly solving

revolving demanding

searching with spirit

unequivocally bonding

packed to the rafters

the curtain descended

their strength and their

fortitude duly expended

.

Demanding our afters

our heroes  in key
an ensemble  befitting

The  soul to fly free

all the emotion

the waves of devotion

the want of the free.

just to be.
