Poem for a Thursday Challenge (everybody gonna shine)

My Music Love 

My music love is not the kind
of today.  Rather much older
Rolling Stones and Beatles I find
Oldies radio played bolder

Youth to thirty-five jive to beat 
Video goes with--they have need
Eagles, Janis Joplin, my treat 
Our marriage, a "Proud Mary" theme 
 _ _ _

"(We)* thumbed that diesel down
Me and Bobby McGee..."
into New Orleans town
We'll shine you wait and see 

*(note) Janis and me
 _ _ _
