Doh   Doh Doh  …. Oh…..oh….oh
              starts to sing in tone low.
               Ray Ray Ray …..ay…….ay……ay
              Cute flute in tune to play.
              Me …Me.. Me..eee …eee …eee 
              Third note in gay and glee.
               Fourth note Fah next has come
               Charm jumps, throbs to beat drum.
               Soh soh ..oh..…tone is proud.
               Tone turns high to be loud.
               Sixth note Lah fine and free
               Next turn of high pitch Tee. 
               Doh Ray Me Fah Soh and
              Lah, then Tee form full band. 
             Soft sweet song through flute blown.
               Notes up-down to be flown.
               Songs soothe in grief and joy.   
               Song birds sing in great ploy.
               In heart,mind, song to roll.
                Song stays in core of soul.

Premium Member Boom-Dee-Adda

Boom-dee-adda, boom-dee-adda, ziss-boom-bah
Halleluiah, hip-hooray and do-re-me-fah-lah

Betcha can't guess why my spirits are flying high
My uncle left me scads of dough, a happy dude am I

Let me see, what to do with all my new found cash
A villa on the Riviera, each night a different bash

Or what about a condo in the centre of Manhattan
Frequent all the trendy spots in tails, top hat and satin

Find a gal with a luscious bod to curl up all my toes
Money talks, I might get lucky Heaven surely knows

Keep your knickers on said one of my very good friends
Is this the way you really want this lurid tale to end

Why not give it all to the needy coz at the end of the day
You'll feel like a million bucks, and this is what you'll say

Boom-dee-adda, boom-dee-adda, ziss-boom-bah
Halleluiah, hip-hooray and do-re-me-fah-lah

Children Sing to Rhyme

Contest by Eve Roper

Divine Song

Sing a song,
To woo you all night long.

The singer enrapturing and beautiful,
Sending her love for song.

To her audience,
Man to adore and so much more.

The serpent in the garden of Eden,
Temptation beyond compare.

Carefully sending her tonic soh fah,
Disguised as a contemporary song.

All night long the song is heard, 
Like the beautiful nightingale and song bird.

Caressing  the wind like a warm summer breeze,
God's love disguised yet heard, a divinity.

Cries and screams cuz mah uncle just got shot down
Aint no happy  times no moe

Cuz our family is broken apart because of violence
These days, I’m not scared, I just fear fah mah life
Juz wonderin if I could make it 2 be sum lucky man’s wife


Premium Member Where Is My Brothers Rakhi

Little tradition based on folk art and literature
Now surpasses the elite tradition in Vedas
Fah lah lah lah where dowries are often given back. 
Where the Raksha Bandhan festival originated
Now celebrated on Full Moon day of Shravana

Sisters express devotion to their brothers
Their sworn protectors for life 
Fah lah lah lah a festival steeped in tradition. 
By placing shoots of barley on their heads
or tying tassel plums of thread on their wrists

Domestic priests of Kishan Garhi utter a blessing
For which they are rewarded with cash
Fah lah lah lah Where is my brother’s rakhi? 
Sisters are brought back to village of origin for ceremony
They can honor a voluntary kin if they have no brothers

Premium Member The Chakra's Solfege

The root of my core
The Strong Tones open door
the color blood Red
DOH see doh C said

The sacred Orange globe
The Buddhists robe
The juicy fruit of life A Hopeful tone
RAY Re veiled D. said.

The bell E the bore within Me
The sunny Yellow bright
The Calm Tone of light
The belle E says ME

The forest Green Heart
The Desolate Tone deep
Without the growth of love
F ears and repeats I say FAH.

The boldness of Blue
The Bright Tone of man
Voice of the blessed throughout the land
G od’s sound SOH I say.

Intuition is primed by mans third eye.
The Sad Tone reveals what we feel.
LAH say we as Purple we see.
A say I as I close my third eye.

Conduit of He above rescue me
Crowned at birth with Lavenders worth
The Piercing TEE Tones passes 
B e is all He asks......

Poifect

Being quite circumspect,
I've come to suspect
I'm far from perfect.
But with all due respect,
I humbly reject
Any who would inspect
Then collect 
And correct
All aspects
Of my defects.
Except,
I expect
Those who can also accept
Please pardon my dialect - 
They's fah from poifect

Premium Member Our Seventieth Birthday

My twin and I celebrated our birthday together.
Fah Lah Lah Lah Lah. whoppee dee dee! 
We have not done this for around thirty years or so
And it was marvelous, believe me! 

We have to figure out how to act our age now.
Or maybe not? I am not sure whether I can anyhow.
Today was marvelous – a giant wow!
A terrific day to turn seventy, our birthday!

We cackled like witches, and played like girls.
Laughed about nothing at all, and yet everything.
I am so glad she came to see me, it was terrific.
Being this age now has a kick and a zing.

Premium Member Built Three Houses

Built our first house with lots of blahs
Many blacks and whites, no fah—lah-lahs.
My husband had a lot to say,
He rather insisted on his way.

Our second house had a bit more color.
Got my preferences in one way or another.
We had been married a bit longer then.
It was more comfortable to argue with him.

We have built three houses together now.
He has learned there will be a lot less ow,
And he will have a lot more fun each day
If he steps back and lets me have my way.

Premium Member Christmas Time

Christmas time oh, fah lah, fah lah.
Everyone loves it lah dee dah, lah dee dah.
Except those who are planning suicide today.
It’s more prevalent than you think in December so gay.

Sure, some people think it’s all Jesus Santa and stuff.
They are the ones who have not been planning their demise in a huff.
Can you reach these do-inners, talk them out of their dour sad ways?
I doubt it quite nicely, but let’s forget about them on these wintery days.

Let’s happy up Santa, and put Lord Jesus way high up on the shelf.
Scoot him next to the reindeer and the not-so-hidden stupid grinning elf.
Let’s forget about the sadness, the badness, the mean and the grim.
We have a glitzy Christmas tree to decorate with holiday trim.

Premium Member fancy dancy rooster cha cha cha

Fancy dancy rooster with a cha cha cha
Strumped up like a prancy peacock, with a fah lah lah
Suit jacket was custom made by Dior himself, of course.
Daisies on the lapel are much too much said the horse.

The barnyard was messy with manure and stuff.
Fancy dancy rooster got splashed, stalked off in a huff.
Acts like a male peacock too, a peahen said.
The hens agreed that everything went straight to his head.
