How about one my grandpa used to sing.

Last night as I lay on my pillow...
Last night as I lay on my bed...
I slept with my feet out the window...
Next morning my neighbors were dead.

Were dead
Were dead
Next morning my neighbors were dead were dead.

Were dead
Were dead
Next morning my neighbors were dead.

Relax the mind and feel,
identify fake from the real.
Friends may come,
and friends may go.
But the keys to your life,
are those truths that you know.
And the process of learning to heal......

"Mientras subía y subía, el globo lloraba al ver que se le escapaba el niño".


"While it rose and rose, the globe cried al to see that escaped him itself the boy".

Take my hand my stubborn child
Don't look back at the past.
Remind yourself to look ahead
As life goes flying past.
Those darkened ghosts
they slow us down, and weight us with their pain.
Learn to let go, bid them adieu.
And learn to love again.

Timeless thoughts in a vacuum.
Caged savior faire.
Black curtains in the white room.
It's one hundred degrees in there.

I am sweeping the hall way.
I hear something through the door.
Perhaps by the end of day,
Loneliness won't rule anymore.

[Eskarpin]

Breath in and breath out
An ocean within, a song for the soul
Whispers louder than any sound
Make us be and one with time
Breathe to the rhythm of life
Ease this slow burning, this strife

I liked this.

[Eskarpin]

... A tear,
a hand,
a look,
a smile,
a word,
a lie,
a tear.......

...thanks Eskarpin...I liked yours too!

Rain on me
Drizzle light and cold, quenching skin and soul
Rain on me
Like a force never before, watch me stand the scour
Or just love me
Let me soar, eternal evermore

Like a rabbit in a cage I wonder.
Hiding under hay from rolling thunder.

Soon without you I will fall down.
Though stories never killled the clown.

If there is something you know, please,
Too weak to stand I'm on my knees.

I will nestle down with memories,
And change the color of the seas.

In praise of...the Elephant...lol

I wish I had your trunk, lined deep with knowledge
I wish I had your tusk, for Jim to hold and sway
I wish I had your eyes, serene amidst chaos
I wish I had your gait, unhurried and firm on its way
I wish I had your ears, listening to words wise
Not the least your tail, to swat those pesky flies away

My nose is shiny
sore and red
i have a cold
i'm off to bed.............lol

Crammed against a brick wall,
Pinned there by a truck.
There's only two ways out, left or right.
I may remain there stuck.
Left is beconing but theres a catch,
I made a promise to right.
But right is too busy to help me loose
and I'm really stuck there tight.
Left could really help me, but I have an afinity for right.
Left would be the easy way,
but right would be the right.
I may give left a chance to help,
knowing that right would if she could.
But once I've exited stage left,
Stage right is gone for good.
