No tears, I will not allow any tears tonight,
For tonight you are going to be the Queen of Night,
I demand no tears, my girl;
For everywhere you are, happiness doth twirl.
Please do not cry, you looked so sad,
I would much rather almost have you mad,
I cannot stand to see you cry, oh my Mother dear!
But if you do I will transform them into a jade instead of a tear.
Bless you, my girl, my sweetheart dear,
Do not ever shed a tear,
My dear girl, do not cry, I always love you;
Do not ever even feel blue.
Please let me do something for you,
I'll write some poems and give you a hug or two,
Because you deserve all the love I can give;
And if I am the cause, I beg you to me forgive.

I love you, Mommy!

The workday's done, I want to have some fun
I long to be footloose and fancy free
I tune in to Pandora and do a little dance
If you could glance my way, you might think my free style's strange
I  swear I won't do the chicken dance, I hope the chicken is free range
I wish I could dance in the 80's style like in Footloose, no matter what I will smile
I wonder if you would like to walk a mile in my shoes. as the music sweeps me away
and seems to take me to another time and another place
