Let Me Blow Away
Your Cobwebs of
Obstinancy


With your curious acquiescence,
I press my mouth to your
offered ear --

and, gently blow.

Thank you, you reply.
I now know that I need
to reciprocate.

And, so, you do...

Now, where am I?

Loving Soul

All your loving,
Gone fishing in
The universe

All your loving,
Gone floating
In my head

All I need
Is a loving thought,
And that thought
Would be you

All your loving,
Gone swimming
Through the universe

All your loving,
Gone floating
Through my soul

All I need
Is a loving soul,
And that soul
Would be you

Protected Heritage (pirates)

Walk the sea
With footsteps
You can't see

As a pirate you can be
But you can't find a way
Without eyes to see
The sea of love underneath thee

So the crusts of sand
Would be left alone
On a crowded beach
Underneath the sea of love
Underneath thee

As a pirate I can be

When I walk the sea
With footsteps behind me
That I cannot see

Look in front of thee!

Aye Captain..

The course won't split here
There's only a fusion of good beer
And mates in good cheer

Walk the sea
With footsteps
You can see

As the mates are greeting ye..

Golden Earring

Brenda Lee is spinning
Into a new sunrise
She keeps the colors
In the depths of her soul
She falls into the corners
Of Love when speaking the language
But she learns it by heart

She learns to listen to the silence
And discover the truth

Why do we need weapons against love?
She asks herself..

The Sun found her golden heart..

And she spins into a new morn',
Welcoming the golden honey,
That is waiting to receive
The first drops of tea

No weapons, formed against love,
Shall prosper, the Lord spoke

She found peace
And so did the Sun.

Oh Jessie

Oh Jessie, where are you now my baby?
Seems like you've been cooling in the Sun
And warming the far away oceans..

Oh my Jessie, where are you now my baby?
Seems like the skies been searching you
And found the answer within..

Oh my Jessie, I've been loving you a long time
My Jessie, you've to come to me
And stay happy for a while to be..

Oh Jessie, stay a pirate to be..
Sail the oceans and rivers
From the land where it never rains..

Oh my Jessie, stay close to me
And fight the loneliness to be..

Somewhere, somehow My Jessie..

Early Hours

Let's see tomorrow
And what the sunshine brings
How 'bout some sweetness
In the early hours?
Come along in our dreams of white

Come see tomorrow
In the early hours
How 'bout some happiness
When the mind is clear

Let's see tomorrow
And what the sunshine brings
How 'bout some sweetness
In the early hours?

Go along, walking in the rain
Come see, the early hours
Come along in our dreams of white

Come see tomorrow
On the BBC radio
Saved by the Universe
And the day goes on..
And the night goes on..

Till we see tomorrow
And what the sunshine brings
How 'bout some happiness?
How 'bout tomorrow?

In the early hours
How 'bout some sweetness?
In the early hours..

Stay With Me

Johnny, I"m only dancing
I'll keep on dancing
Till you come home

Johnny, I'm only singing
I'll keep on singing
All night long

Oh, you're so far away from me,
Why won't you come home?

Johnny, why won't you speak to me?
I'll keep on waiting till I hear that call

Johnny, why won't you see me?
I'll keep on moving 'till I reach you there

(interlude)

Oh, you're so far away from me
Why won't you come home?

I'll fly like a bird
Over the Rocky Mountains

Oh Johnny, that's the way to reach you
In your far away land
In your far away land

Well Johnny, now you know my story
I hope you'll think of me
I hope you think of me

(interlude)

Oh, you're so far away from me
Why won't you come home?

I will follow the eagle
Over the Rocky Mountains

My Johnny,
Stay with me
Stay with me
Won't you stay with me..

Wasted And Wounded

Wasted and wounded,
Erased by life

Watch them fall to the floor
While they go back for more

They cannot stop
They want the power
They cannot stop
They want your flower

Wasted and wounded
Erased by sin
The girl stand in line,
Treated like kettle

They cannot stop
They want it all
They cannot stop
They want you to fall

The girls are crying,
Misused and battered
By their only leaders,
Who are not there at all

The children are crying
For their future, so lost

They cannot stop
They want destruction
They cannot stop
They hate evolution

Wasted and wounded
Erased by love
Watch them fall to the floor
As they go back for more

They cannot stop
NO NO
They cannot stop..

My complete sentiments, Julie. The poets of the USA are rising to the occasion. The following link might have to
be rerouted into the Politics thread (your call).

Are We Being Given a Lesson?


Is the Lord
employing irony,
to teach the world
a lesson?

A lady chancellor
of a defeated country
in World War II --

now, possibly,
hat the responsibility
of preventing,
World War III.

His lesson:
"Love your enemies. . ."

All I Do Is Walk

All I want you to do, is walk..

My feet hurt like A-Bomb,
Walking towards you, 'cause
My legs go right ahead of me..

My brain hurts a lot,
It falls down my spine,
Hit by an elephant,
It smashes the floor.

All I want you to do, is walk..

You left me another note
By the side of the road, 'cause
You won't see me in front of thee..

My brain hurts a lot,
It falls down my head,
Hit by an elephant,
It smashes the wall.

All I want you to do, is walk..

Foul play can get a small
Town going, 'cause
Every cause has an effect..

My brain hurts a lot,
It rolls down my eyes,
Hit by an elephant,
It cries like a child.

All I do, is walk,
Walk with you,
All I do, is walk..

The Story Continues

Once

Twice

Trees are covered in ice

Once

Twice

Winter has begun

Once

Twice

The ice rolls down my eyes

And melts on my lips

Where I still feel the mark

Of your lost kiss..

Once

Twice

Upon a time

The story continues

And everyone lived

Happily ever after

Once

Twice

Upon a time

Till spring began

Till winter started

All over again

Once

Twice

Forever..

This poem is addressed to my fellow US of A citizens, but all may scratch their heads...


Are We Different?


During the Great Depression,
many lost their jobs --
and, their
families.

And, yet,
they voted, a fourth time,
for a President whose healing words were,
"The only thing we have to fear, is fear, itself."

Today,
many citizens of
The United States of America
have responded for the first time --

and elected to the Presidency
a man, whose call to a fragmented country
has been for sacrifice
to be made . . .

but, only by those
who would be told to leave
the United States of America. . .
in order to make it "Great, Again."

Are many so different from their
parents and grandparents,
that they would jeopardize democracy
in order to be "Great Again"?

Guess Who I Am


I take desperate people,
who painfully trek
from frightful conditions --

and callously
rebuff their entreaties
for merciful haven.

I care not for those
who have not achieved
their rightful place in the world --

no matter how much they have achieved in their land of birth,
and have promised to continue to achieve,
both for themselves, and their hoped-for new homeland.

I don't care if my actions
reflect badly
on those I represent.

I only care for my own vision.

Times have changed,
and, the Statue of Liberty
should be removed.

Guess who I am.

A Mind Of Its Own

I swear this body
Has got a mind of its own

Begging for mercy,
Saying please baby please

Let’s be alone together
Let’s do something strong

When you’re squeezed for information,
That’s when you have to play it dumb..

I swear this body
Has got a mind of its own

The Scenario

The scenario in my mind...

Colours the world around my soul
The angels may leave
If it gets too much for them
My love is alone
But he ain’t lonely
If he ain’t with me
He will never be free
My soul gives love
But it ain’t lonely
If it ain’t with me
It will never be free

The scenario in my mind...

It feels like lead
Angels are falling on my head
Before it gets too much for them
They will never be free
Just like me
My love is alone
Just like me
He will never be free

The scenario in my mind...

Crunching for the C
With my eyes on the angels
And it gets too much for them…

Clearwater

A life less ordinary,
A love more precious
Come to the preacher in my dreams.

They ask for the diamonds of your soul,
Hidden in the voids of your heart.

A mother, over her children
A father, over his son
Come and talk to the unbelief in my eyes.

Clearwater runs over my mind
Clearwater runs over my feet
Clearwater runs in the sand,
Runs in my head.

In my lungs and out of my mouth,
In my heart and back out of my mind,
Right to the diamons of your soul.

A man and his woman,
A Sun and his planet
Give each other the warmest smile.
They ask for the picture of your soul,
Hidden in the voids of your mind.

Clearwater runs over my hair
Clearwater runs over my toes
Clearwater in the sea,
Runs into me.

Then Came You

Wintertime outside,
And in the mind.
Cold wind rushing
Through my body..

Then came you,
A ray of light
In a cold ocean of dispair.

High pressure in my head,
The ray of light reached
Its final destination..

Then came you,
A beam of love
From a far-away place,
Hitting me straight between the eyes,
Where love had found its home.

Spring had begun
For the Multiverse,
Warm air rushing
Through every void
Of my heart.

Then came you,
A sparkle of life
In the vastness of space..

Surrounding the world
With wisdom and joy,
Where peace had returned
Back home.

Then came you,
We were alone,
But not lonely..

Then came you
Then came you..
