Nobody is going to tell you what to do
What to say
You go and find your own way
There will be those who put you down
Don't listen
Don't make a sound
Make sure you stand your own ground
Nobody
Nobody  
Should put anybody down
Nobody
Nobody
Nobody
Song idea and lyrics?

You can accept
Be grateful
You cannot expect anything in this world
Regardless of the relationship or source
The reasons don't matter
Be gracious
Walk away with your head held high
Let go and move forward

Selfless never selfish
Just not in my DNA
Cruelty and self absorption sicken me
It surrounds us
Nail salons with claws surrounded with those I run from
They sit on thrones of their own creation
Good for you if you like that
Escaping to Nature and Beauty
With a lens or a pen
Refuse to give up  
Museums,Zoos,live shows,and travel for me
The Prince and Princess bergade not for me
Listen to words and music they just hear
Refuse to be a joiner
So the loner reappears
Just like that
Maddy 5d
Hear when you listened
In one ear and out the other
What is being said and happening around you or anyone for that matter
Must not and should not afffect your health and well being
Dealing with it and moving on
Shut it off
Tune it out
But continue being the.kind and caring human being you are and always have been
Take care of yourself before it does a number on you like it did a number on me

You
Barely knew you
Very tall blue-eyed guy
You called to see where I was
Missed classes due to an accident
That twenty year old girl in your class
You didn't have to call but you did
You drove me home from grad school
You didn't have to do that but you did
We talked til one am after a full day's work and  grad school
class
You invited me to meet your parents and placed a diamond ring on my finger
October is forty-five years married and still in love
And loving
You are magic and love you more than 1320 poems will ever express
You

Cascading
Flowing
Tiny Pools
Horrible storms
Droplets
In joy
In Sorrow
Not enough tissues
Lovely Linen hankies
On his collar
On his shoulder
In my hair
Everywhere
Tears

A white shepherd with one blue eye and one brown eye
Greeted me at a high÷end shop
We played with his flannel doll until I had to leave
The dog looked so sad
So I returned with a small golden retriever toy
After the scent check ,the dog took it and snuggled next to it on
the pillow on the hardwood flooring
If there is a heaven,a dear departed love said Hello.
Sorry sweet doggie had to go home.
Daddy,hope it was you.
Daddy passed August 23 1973 when I was 14.
He was 45.
