If I Could Write A Love Song

    If I could write a love song
I’d try to keep it short and sweet
But I’d have to mention
Just how we came to meet

If I could write a love song
I’d mention my still weak knees
I’d have to give credit to the Moon
And the nature of the birds and bees

If I could write a love song
I’d probably speak of Jupiter and Mars
I’d mention Venus, Saturn and really the
Universe and the magic of the Stars

If I could write a love song
I’d try to explain my inability to speak
I’d blame the power of your spell and I’d
Try to Describe your openness and mystique

If I could write a love song
I’d say how we’ve never fallen in defeat
I’m afraid the song would be never ending
And therefore never be complete

I couldn’t forget the Angels and Jesus
And how right came from wrong
A difficult task to say the least but
Only If I Could Write A Love Song

I dedicate this to my wife
She’s an Angel and my gift from God!!!

Why did I always have a fold
        In my Mad magazine?
Because Al's irreverent art work
        just had to be seen.

Go to school, don't play the fool.
    Before you know it, you may be a poet.

When you were bold Sir Lancelot
and I was a lady fair
we cast our fortune to the wind
and love was free as air

When you were old Sir Lancelot
and I was a lady fair
I never thought there would come a time
when you would not be there

When you were gone Sir Lancelot
I missed you being near
you left a sad and grieving maid
your lonely Guinevere

Hear the dripping branches sing
when the icy breath of winter
melts to kiss the waiting lips of spring

Early morning rain
washes any weekend traces
from coffee scented Monday faces
