the color poem

gray snougers lie in heavy sessions
with yellow pigs playing in mud
i lie on my back in my black swimming pool
thinking of an magenta clay pot
i sing the blues, while you chime away on the crimson piano
that is dancing one ice
color is the name of my game
aqua fingernails scratches copper skyscrapers
letting them know that it is time to
you have powderblueparanoia looking over your back every 5 minutes
you are greenjealous and live with white anxieties
you can stay there if you like because you have black fear
you are afraid of electric blue love
it just might make you do something that you really want to
in your color rainbow



sweet, sunny day

sweet, sweet sunny day
and the kids are out to play
i just want to say
that i love you
in each and every day

Sweet, Sweet sunny day
and the birds are singing
and the winds are blowing
soft rhythms of life
i just wanna let you know
that i can't let you go

sweet, sweet sunny day
you are my sunshine
my strong tower of strength
to lean on
when the winds are blowing
and i want to let go

sunshine, stay with me
always and keep me smiling
on this sweet, sweet sunny day!



she stands

she stands...proud, gifted and strong
against all foreign winds

she stands...proud, gifted and strong
and plans her future diligently

she stands...strong with love in her heart
and strength in her soul
she cannot be fooled

she stands...against all that is against her
rises, and rises. 
she still rises to the occasion

she stands...and will not give up
never giving up her love for herself
and for mankind



sweet Spirit
(an ode to dee)

in the morn' i see your
sweet smile
and in the eve i hear
your beautiful laughter
even in the distance 
i can see your smiling face
and i can feel your warmth
in the cold, cold night
in the night i can feel
your sweet, sweet warm air!
you are beneath my wings
and i can fly so high
as i feel your sweet, sweet spirit



out of the darkness

climbing out of the darkness i felt a heavy rock
float off my shoulders
the bright light lifts my soul, my spirit
walking in the streets, i breath the sweetness of the air
the aroma of the flowers shape a w i d e
smile on my face
i am smiling because i am finally out, out, of the darkness
i felt so smothered by the dense, smoky feeling of the darkness
out in the clear, clean air I am
now i am in the clear shining world



Soar

above and beyond
the harsh winds of life are raging
in the heart love grows and soars

above and beyond
the madness of the city
the madness of life
in the heart grows
strength and compassion
and soar

soar and rise
above like the dove
above like the raven
above and above

i will soar
i will rise
beyond heights unknown



i miss you

in the daylight
when the sun comes up
and i hear the birds sing
i miss you

at midnight
when the sun goes down
and i hear my heartbeat alone
i miss you

when i hold my pillow tight
and although everything's alright
i miss you

at noon
when people are smiling and laughing
together with those they love
i miss you

when summer comes
and i feel the breeze caress me
i miss you

my heart is your heart
my love is your love
my pain is your pain
and my fear is your fear

when we are apart
i miss you



soul set free part ii

u have always been to me
something sweet
something strong, indeed
you make me strong
i know i don't always say
how i feel cause i am always scared
not knowing how you really feel

u have always been to me
so strong, so important in my life
didn't know how to say
thank you

setting me free from my demons seemed so simple
it's apart of your charm
did you know that you touched me so
deep down in my soul?
i can't forget the unconditional love
you showed me

setting me free
is a thing you did
but did not see
cause i always try to hide 
away from you
the way i really feel
about things that are blue

setting me free
has given me a new lease on life
and i can't take credit for all that

it was your love
it was your support
that gave me room to love, grow and change

and for that i will always say
love, thanks for being my
friend



songstress

when the song comes
she sings
when the pain comes
she hollows in the wind
when the joy comes
she sings like a bird
so sweetly
so deeply
when the happiness she fades
she runs away
with songs in the wind
with lyrics that explain
the pain and joy
bitterness within
she sings
her rhythms are smooth
her rhythms are wild and sweet
she is the beat of music
her heart exposed



make me high

you make me high
you make me high, so high
like a kite
and you make me feel like
i'm soaring high in the winds
pretty brown eyes

you make me high
pretty brown eyes
as you smile that bright smile
and butterflies zoom, and bloom
in my stomach
