Judy, Joni, And Joan Poem by Sonny Rainshine

Judy, Joni, And Joan

Rating: 5.0


Judy, Joni, and Joan,
the balladeers of sixties folk,
the minstrels of protest:
where are you; where did you go?

Aren’t you a little old
to be sneaking joints
in smoky cellars
in Greenwich Village now?

Come out, come out;
there’s work to do.
Sing us out
of the funk.

Tell us about magic dragons
and tragic heroes;
Inscribe our anguish
in clefs and notes and,
most of all…

sing something pretty.
