My Lord
My Lord...
My Lord, this day...
You are sweet-smelling,
like the first roses in spring,
and still...
the very cold of winter air
that bites and delights
remains.
The sun rising in the east...
a light to shine against the world,
to give warmth and life
another chance.
A miracle in the heavens
as is the sky itself...

Annette
A morning coincidence, to school we laughed and skipped -
A cloud that drifted through the sky, from my mind it slipped.
For many years and then forever, I would forget
That happy race with the breezy, carefree Annette.
Sleepwalking through my life, I was ready to awake,
Never much a part of it, but ready

Remember Annette Funicello
Annette Funicello started out as a Disney Mouseketeer
We kids loved her totally, she was everything we wanted.
Starring in Babes in Toyland made her even more popular.
I was nine when her Hawaiian paper dolls came out.
Man, there was nothing better than that.
Until she began starring in beach movies with Frankie Avalon.

In Remembrance of Annette Funicello
In Remembrance of Annette Funicello
By Elton Camp

Still, I sat in front of the black and white set
The Mickey Mouse Club was my favorite show
But Annette’s is the only name I recall, though
She and others sang the program’s theme song
Sort of made me feel like, with them I

Annette Funicello
Annette Funicello sang so mellow
Charming many a good fellow
And then would smile
With so much style
They'd all want to kiss her "Hello!"

Annette, do I ever have
a cameo in your dreams?
Is it memorable enough
you question what it means?
Cuz you have a lead role
in my incomplete script;
my imagination wont let you die
and it wont let me live.
You were the sanity
in a line-up of disorders –
a nation of autonomy
between tumultuous borders.
I was a horoscope;
I was a forecast –
unpredictable day

Your Journey, This Is For My Cousin Annette.
You're going on a journey
through the most of turbulent seas,
you're longing for calm waters,
you're wanting pain at ease.
The storm feels so foreboding,
you may think this fights your own
but your family sails beside you,
so don't ever feel alone.
For every cloud that lingers
and the darkness in it's fall,
God will bring again the sunshine
and lead you safely back
