Man Enough To Be Your Baby

Woke up
               Wanted to cry a rain
                              After a cloudy mind
                                      Found the time
                                                    To stake a claim
                                                             On a forecasted brainstorm
I heard the winds just a singing
    So suddenly 
                  A lovely prison song
                                   While I smiled
                                              Proud to be in the custody
                                                          Of my woman's arms
                                                                Cradeled and eased
                                                                    In her sleepless breeze
Slumbered
                     In the sheer comfort
                                                   Of she
                                                          It's just got to be man!
I believe it
   That this right here
            Is the strongest weakness
                 Known to anything 
                                That has had
                                              The priveledge
                                     Of breathing
                                           Frankly I'm just
                                                        Speaking of
That greater love that knows how to prevail
     That in which way after you've fell
The goodness keeps you on falling
          Dig what I'm talking?  Maybe.................
