Averagely sad
Averagely mad
A little bit joy
A little bit loud
A little bit coy
Often proud
Not outstanding
Not witty
Not always pretty
Or open handed
Unless you are blessed
Or cursed to be the worst
But for us, for the rest
We are humanity
Despite of our insanity
We do our best
We’ll get through
................................
We always do

Where are you
Dreamers under the sun
Miss you, love you every one
Artists painting endless panoplies
Scribblers scribbling in their beds
From the depths of imagination
Stories awakening in their heads
Poets’ pens poised to flow
Rhymers growing wings to creation
Eager to take flight, ready to go
The rivers of time move on
Until words and pictures are inked
Every one of these
Redeemers, fantasy givers
All beauty becomes linked
Poems and stories are gifts
Here to relieve the monotony
Of the considered norm, lifts
Pathways to the soul, endless rivers
To keep us sane, make us whole
Where are you
Dreamers under the sun
Miss you........
Love you every one

Going back to the beginning
A loser has to be winning
Just one time
Monetary matters not my shout
Truth be told all I want is out
To be feeling fine
Backwards going forwards to convey
Today is progressing in a better way
If I really go back
I fear I might lack
Insight and experience
Couldn’t take interference
Though tossed and windblown
I know that I have grown
Going back to the beginning
I'm the winner this time

*****
Feeling fine

Let me be your rock of ages
I’m old enough you see
I’m craggy like that cleft
Not much of me left
Still have my personality
Ego well preserved
So much of me is wrong
Yet you give me more
More than I deserve
Within this old wreck
Is a growing respect
For the things you do
Let me look after you
Shelter you from harm
After years of neglect
Let me be for you
What you are for me
Your rock of ages

Step into the garden of love
Leave your ego at the door
You don’t need it anymore
A blessed sweet release
Step into the garden of love
After all these years
Dry your tears
*****
Find your peace

Don’t tell me that we can’t
Don’t tell me that we shouldn’t
Don’t tell me we won’t fly
I won’t deceive you, I will try
Don’t tell me that we couldn’t
Let me be anything I choose
If you put me down
Soon I won’t be around
Once the cord is broken
The words you have spoken
Means we both will lose
Please don’t let us go
I want to let you know
You’re my man
Don’t say we can’t
We shouldn’t or we shan’t
Say we can

Gambling
On you
I’m at home
Not alone
Yet lonely
I crash
This is rash
Not funny
For love
Not money
For shame
This isn’t right
Phone?
Text too?
Can’t do it
If only......
Still I try
Again?
Why?
Gambling on you
Gets me by



I
