A Lifetime Too Late Is Somewhere Over the Rainbow

POETIC LYRICS BY THOMAS LAM HSI (ANDRESS)
Dedicated to Renata 'Ronnie' Kanani & Danielle McCarthy (I hope!)
If a lifetime is too late...then...MAYBE...THAT-LIFE...WELL?!?!
You know..."Somewhere Over The Rainbow"...Just Might Be A Silly Song!
There was a Movie, "Where Have All The Gods Gone?"
And I wonder...YES...where have all MY GODS GONE?
A Destiny Delivered Late...really is...Late...and maybe...TOO LATE!
There is really...only one thing...THAT REALLY MATTERS...THAT'S LOVE!
JUST LOVE...REALLY...IT'S JUST LOVE!
Every baby...every little boy...every little girl...every teenage boy or girl...
Every working stiff...of every kind...every retiree...EVEN...THE GODS...
NEED LOVE!
From carrot juice in wax cups...to your first bath...in the kitchen sink...
A cookie in your hand...and your laughing parents...at your first steps...
Is a Destiny That Starts Out Right...but SOMEWHERE OVER THAT RAINBOW
ARE BLACK CLOUDS...that await!
Do you remember...that first pulled pony-tail...that first unmanly cry?
SOMEWHERE OVER THE RAINBOW...the blue-birds...and...THE HAWKS
DO FLY!
A Destiny Delivered Late...really is...Late...and maybe...TOO LATE!
They say, "That a match made in heaven...is heavenly"...well...
DID YOU CHECK THE DIVORCE RATE?
They say that..."Love is a universal principle"...and I'd like to believe it!
Because when...Her Heart Died...I Cried...and then My Heart Died!
And I would like to say..."Will YOU believe for ME and for US?"
Love is something...and someone...TO HOPE FOR...AND TO DREAM ABOUT!
"Somewhere over the Rainbow"...can be the most beautiful song...
But that depends...!
Do blue-birds fly...and do the stars in heaven shine...but DIE?
Lovers in the rainfall...IN PARIS...is something that I'd love to see...
FOR MYSELF...AND FOR HER (or for him...as it may be)!
(TO BE CONTINUED)
