For Eva

For Eva


To my Goddess, my Femme Fatale,
My Idol, my Love.
You are in my heart forever Eva;
I love you like I love the green stuff.


So don’t give me a hug please, just a loving smile.
We can’t get too close or you might notice and run a mile.


I want my friend Eva for life, for Eva.
So take my peace, love and empathy,
For when I am not with ya.


Gather round, gather round; come and see.
Perfection, Natural Beauty, True Empathy.
The Human Diary, I could always confide in.
Do you have a twin sister?  
She could be the woman of my dreams.


She sings like an angel,
She flies high like a butterfly.
She needs to change…nothing.  She is fine!
So much love to Eva and the woman I saw today.
She was worth a second look, but I didn’t catch her name.


Thank you Eva for everything and wow!
When I die please sing me a song,
You are most worthy of taking a bow.
Let them see what I see,
When I see you sing.
Acapella, there is none better;
So light one up, but please don’t forget me.

Dear God:

Re Eva Cassidy

Been waiting/wanting to write you for a long time
About Eva Cassidy.

Had to let the anger settle,
Had to find the write words.

Many months have past, perhaps years,
Since I stumbled across the voice of this angel,
Memorial Day, it seems like the write time to
Try once more.

But my anger has not settled, it has trebled,
It has risen and is unquantifiable, irrevocable,
a line crossed, a feud, that can never now be amicably settled.

I have a retinue of good curses, experienced friends,
Looking to meet up with you, who understand that
Blessings and curses, for full effect, should be rarely used,
Especially inside a funereal poem honoring the truly great.

But for Eva, there's no question, you dude,
Got a fleet of F bombs coming your way,
When the children have gone to bed.

When Eva sings "Imagine,"
The purity of voice, miraculous,
I know you were afraid
And so took her young,
Lest her voice raise a generation of questioners.

Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today...

Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to **** or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace...


You got the power,
You make mistakes,
We all gotta die sometime,
But you better not take the special ones too early,
Or I may stop writing to you, and then,
What ya gonna do? Who will comfort me?
Eva will, that's who,
When we walk together in Fields of Gold...
