Best Dio Poems
There Are A Thousand Treasures Of Kings
Worth More, Than All The Wealth, There Could Be !
Some Say, It’s In A Kingdom Of Dreams
Others Say, It’s As Real As You & Me
The Legend Says, There’s A Kingdom Of Love
In A Kingdom, Far Away & Above
Kings-Treasures, To Be Claimed By The Best
Those Worthy Of Courage, To Quest
& So, This Is Where I’ll Start, My Friend,
Tho’, This Isn’t Where The Real Tale Begins
You See, There Was A Merry Band Of Adventurers
Who Went On A Quest, As Treasure-Gatherers
There Was Moses, The Freedom-Circle-Rider
Stayed His Course, Like An Eagle-Glider
There Was Goff, The Monk Of Sky and Trees
His Visions Of Life, Were As Open As Doors With Keys
There Was Kendricks, The Keeper Of ‘Interesting’ Tracks
& Marty, Of The Hale & Hearty & Power-Pen Pack
There Was Adell of Deep Wells … & Dio, The Devoted
& Dame Brown Of Mountain-Ground, So Sweetly-Noted
There Was An Irish Lass, O’Leary Of Laughter
& The Golden Daughter Of Grace & Audrey Of Gifted-Banter
& Devonshire, The Dove & Highlander Of Heather-Cove
Of First To Join Search: For Soup & Treasure-Trove
Of Course, We Have A Prince Of Passion Land
& Ismael, A Dream-Merchant From His Own Island
The Prince, Paints Of Pleasures; The Islander Speaks of Treasures
Both Know Of Biggest Royal Cache That We Could Ever Measure !
There Came Tim, The Archer Of The Wit-Forest
& A Determined Mother with Son, The Lady Doris
Maid Adams, Who Teaches How To Keep Cold Away
& The Lightning-Voice Of Linda Marie, Keeps Wolves At-Bay
There Is Sir Lamoureu of Sir Lancelot's Order
He Wields Words In Articulate Axes & Armor
And To Those Who Dare Say Chivalry Is Dead ...
Is Because -The Sonnets of Sir Lamoureu, They Have Not Read
& The Legendary Language That Sir Lamoureu Pledge
Then There's Lady Linda, A Chatelaine & A Poet Destroyer
But She Only Versus The Verses of The Vanity Voyeurers
Her Skill With Quill Accurately Quite Accords
As Proof of Pens Being Mightier Than Swords
We Have A Pretty Elf Known As Anne Lise Andresen
Her Piquant Topics of Poetry Makes Her Our Taliesin
And We Have Our Very Own Kind Maid Merryman
She Transports Adventures Better Than A Ferryman
Part 1 of 2
When I was a child I waited for Your call
How could You do this to me
We stood by the phone but You were busy
How could I have thought You heard
The youngness wasn't enough
You were too disconnected to answer
Unaware we dialed You again and again
The others waited too and starved
I believed in Your love
The Omnipotence fragmented
For you Brother
The signal was one ring and I should ring back
But the Power said disconnected
I tried You again but the voice said no
The number you have reached is not in service
So I checked the number and again it said clear
Those tears turned into a river and we saw You sail by
You were needed at the church and the glory
Two children stayed and together was no matter
Dancing we made new games and prayer
Oh Dio
Am older now and the prayer
My brother is gone cause he took a cab
Their was no fare
He doesn't wait now but I still
I hear him in the night
I see him in strangers and glances
Begging You I wait as before
The toys help with those moments and dialing
Your phone rings off the hook
God help us all
Sodom and Gomorrah...genesis 19;24
Pompeii...August 24 , a d 79....
1859...the great solar flare struck....telegraph offices reported set ablaze across the face of the globe.....
Am I a man of faith?
Am I a man of facts?
By this believing...
And seeing with my own eyes, for what that is worth to one legally blind.
Aye....
Several years ago near hit with a solar flare...setting the earth back to the days of the British sir...Mr Newton if it had contacted....
Do I believe the words of christ?
Do I consider myself totally dependent on solo christi..
Dio willing , aye...
Christianity has become more horizontal hold
Less vertical hold...
Atheists? Well they get in a fix or right and say o good Lord..
As though he is a mere expression...
I have never forgotten our love
And I will never forget it until I die
Many years of sorrow have passed
But the wound in my heart has never healed
Remember the many kisses we exchanged
Remember all the tears we shed
The burning kisses and the scalding tears
That to the depths of the sea have gone
I have not forgotten this love
How could you have forgotten it?
A love that bound us like a chain
A chain that can never be broken
You still return to me in my dreams at night
Before my eyes I see you every day
How many sweet nights we passed together
How cruel the destiny that has betrayed us.
No peace shall it find in the presence of God
This infamous cruel destiny that betrayed us
Infamous - cruel and heartless
That separated us for all eternity
What remains is just your picture for remembrance
I never grow weary of gazing upon it
I kiss it, I bathe it with my tears, I hold it to my heart
And weep for the sad ending of our love.

O Vera Ammore Non Si Scorda Mai
Numaggio mai scurdate e chesta ammore
E nummo scorde chiu' sino che' more
Sono passati tant'anni di dolore
E num si e' chiuse chiu' sta chiaga o core
Ricordi quanti vase ce simmo date
Ricordi quante lacrimo chiagnute
Vase e fuoche e lacrime cucente
Che tutte a funne o mare sene' so ghiute
Io non meso' scordate a chesta ammore
Tu comme tu putive mai scurda'
E' stato nammore troppo incatenato
Catene che nun si ponne mai spezza'
Mi viene ancora nsuonno tutte e' notte
Ti vego o iotnre nante all'uocchi miei
Quante nuttate doce avimmo passate
E penza e distino nfame che cia' tradute
Nun'anna trava' pace nanzi a dio
Chella nfama ca ci fece o trarimento
Nfame e scelleratee senza core
Ci fece sparte a nuie etermamente
Me' remase o ritratto tuoi pe ricordo
Nun me stancasso mai du guarda'
O' vase o' bagne e lacrime mo strengo o' core
E chigane a fine triste e checsta ammore.
By Giuseppe Pasquale Liguori and Robert James Liguori
1960 and the world was changing
A time for living and rearranging
Baseball in the school yard with a sponge ball and a fist
Donnie Brooks sang Mission Bell and Chubby did The Twist
Bobbie sox and ponytails, school dances were so much fun
Johnny Preston’s Running Bear. I loved the theme from Peter Gunn
A young senator from Boston was in the presidential race
Marty sang El Paso and there was a theme from A Summer Place
Mr. Custer and Alley Oop were fun songs to listen to
While Elvis said It’s Now or Never and also Stuck on You
Ford came out with the Edsel. Remember the unsinkable Molly Brown.
Everybody’s Somebody’s Fool even Cathy’s Clown
We had air raid warnings and marbles in our pockets
Movies in the park and Cape Canaveral shooting rockets
Gable and Monroe in the Misfits, Perry Mason on TV
And the Drifters were singing Save the Last Dance for Me.
There was a draft to serve our country and we were always ready
A time for holding hands and a time for going steady
Kirk Douglas was Spartacus and Burt was Elmer Gantry
Pies were made from scratch and there were apples in the pantry
Larry Hall sang Sandy and Bobby Rydell wailed Wild One
O Dio Mio From Annette. She and Frankie had so much fun
Lonely Blue Boy by Conway Twitty and Bobby’s Beyond the Sea
Duane twanged Because they’re Young and the Everly’s Let it be Me
Those days are precious memories that I hope will never fade
The world was so much kinder then and I was in eighth grade.

See how Christmas fete on earth
Indians will walk to the mass
Enjoy curries and sweets enmass
Australians hang wreaths girthed
Here Santa gives rest to reindeer
Changes dress for less ”hot” with cheer.
Chinese light streets and stores with mirth
Santa is called “Shen Dan Lao Ren”
In shops only the grottos plain.
Yule logs burned in French hearth
With food left, the logs burn all night
In case Jesus comes in the night.
Russians fast till first star rebirths
Then break fast with Kutia eating
For good luck throw some up ceiling.
Ways and approach differ on earth
Call him Christ, Gud, Gott, dieu,dio, God
Ishwar, Allah, he’s the same lord.
See how Christmas fete on earth
Australians hang wreathes girthed
Chinese light streets and stores with mirth
Yule logs burned in French hearth
Russians fast till first star rebirths
Ways and approach differ on earth

Beatrice Discerno in te come s'agona
la libertate onde 'l superno seme
da la fatal famiglia vi disclona.
Ora viatico non sia teco la speme:
d'ella s'inappassisce onne le fronde
e singule di rovi quea conceme;
Ne la tua acqua Fede si profonde,
così ora sinue ora procella,
per che 'l perdono tui no 'l reconde:
ne l'insiema tua decade s'anella
l'invisibile Patride secreto,
né per ciò singultate teco insella:
de l'universo è 'l tuo spirar decreto
e 'n esso credi da la pria baglia
né conoscesti sicce ne 'l tuo greto.
Adesso manifesti questa faglia
in che parerti vulno, sì t'inforsa,
e intra la sua piaga più dismaglia.
Disora frate d' esto ove t'assorsa,
dischiodati l'inganno ch'hai trafitto!
O, misero colui che mela intorsa!
Ma su de la tua stele non fia 'nscritto
d'alcun reptare serpeo che t'avvinse
se 'n Dio tu prieghi e non a 'l suo delitto:
dirai :" la contumacia che sospinse
a contumelia d'alto tribunale
voìco d'esso strazia e meco linse".
Parla e dimanda adesso commensale
se la divinità teco è competra,
se 'l mio invitar non è frugale.
Ioàn: Santa la tua coglienza non m'arretra,
ma per che dinastia da essa figli
così a 'l dorso mio i' la faretra:
lo strale che' n destino s'inartigli
saria diverso da la mia iacenza (lat.iacio, scagliare
onde onne direzione ubice immigli.
Or fa' mi grazia de l'audienza
dimando d'amorose fiate come
una è sorella ed altra reticenza.
Standing by my window this afternoon
I raise my glass to Venice in parting
Three days at the Venetian Lagoon
Down Rialto Bridge on a taxi we're riding.
"Buona giornata, Mademoiselle" greets
The room boy smiling, " Fiori per te"
I put the fresh bouquet on crumpled sheets
"It's masquerade ball tonight, my Lady."
"I will meet you at eight", was the letter
In awe of da Vinci's Mona Lisa
Mio Dio, I can't take my eyes off her
"We'll take our next flight to Casablanca."
He whispered with masked eyes staring at me
Tongue tied with every word my love goes on
An impression of love deep as the bluest sea
To you, my beautiful thinking, Godspeed anon.

Cuando usted lea esto
Quiero que sepas
lo mucho que significas para mí.
Me alegro que te conocí,
honrado en los hechos.
Has cambiado mi vida para mejor.
Con todos sus actos desinteresados??.
Usted dio a mí
todas tus fuerzas,
por creer en mí en todos los sentidos.
Sólo quería decirte,
lo mucho que te echo de menos día a día.
Siempre recuerdo lo mucho que te necesito,
y yo estaré aquí para ti.
No importa lo que la vida trae.
Te amo ...

hace calor esta noche, la ciudad de Los Angeles la mejor ciudad para soñar con el cielo y las estrellas y la luna llena yo quiero llenar mis venas de heroina para morir y viajar ala luna y no regresar hay días que son tan dolorosos como puedo soñar y despertar que solo fue una pesadilla y mi vida regrese como era antes con mi hijo y su padre ... se vale soñar en estas noches que me hacen recordar cuando todo lo tuve y lo perdí por mis errores que me han traído a este hotel que save de mi dolor por que siempre estoy con la tristeza y la cruz que cargo arrepiento y dolor cada día pesa mas ... pesa mas y mas déjame soñar déjame ir ala luna y no despertar jamas....
El retumbar de las costas distantes me hace dormir
Pero los hechos de la vida a veces pueden dificultar soñar
La vida me sacudió y me perdí en las olas Del Mar
Agarrame de las cintas en mi cabello
La vida me sacudió, ultra suave
Como el heavy metal que te pones
Volando a la luna otra vez
Soñando con heroína
Probablemente te dio todo
Y te quitó la vida
Te puse en un avion
Destinado a una tierra extranjera
Espero que vuelvas otra vez y tu vida la vuelvas a tener una vez más y nunca aver conocido la maldita droga que me quitó la vida Y dime que tus sueños son más que Sueños Bueno, si calor hoy tu spiritu está en el aire
Y todos tus amigos han venido a decirte adiós atu funeral
Es difícil vivir cuando absolutamente nada está claro y tus esperanzas y fe se las llevo ese tsunami que sacudiótu vida hoy solo sueños quedan con los recuerdos.... una ves más una vez más quisiera soñar para despertar que solo fue una pesadilla ....
Inspired by “Stand Up & Shout” by Ronnie James Dio
Ride Your Wishing Star
In our solar system,
the king of stars is Sun
even though this star
you cannot outrun,
find a star and make a wish.
Reach up to the sky.
Grab that star’s glow
no matter if it’s high.
Chorus:
Jump, jump, jump up.
Ride your wishing star.
Once you’ve caught a hold of it,
it will take you far.
Don’t let people tell you
what you have to do.
If you don’t desire it,
it is not for you.
Everyone has something
they are dreaming of.
What is it you REALLY want?
What is it you love?
Bridge:
Success does not come easy. Sometimes you will hear
someone say it’s easy. Only fools say that.
Make your star your stallion, and ride it without fear.
Chorus:
Jump, jump, jump up.
Ride your wishing star.
Once you’ve caught a hold of it,
it will take you far.
Repeat Chorus
