What Fascinates MeI'm intrigued by what there may be
'neath great depths of ocean and sea
Treasures lost from life's history
A mystery A mystery
What's buried under ocean sands
Pirate's plunder and wedding bands
I dream of...

What Fascinates Me More than anything Nature fascinates me
Men living in close proximity to nature, I love to see
So I ramble into the city’s far outskirts
Watching ordinary people in commonplace pursuits
Imbibing much from the life of the peasantry
Whom none can beat in life’s lessons elementary
How they interact...

What Fascinates MeWhat happens when we die? I really want to know!
I’m getting up in age and am ready for the show!
Religious fundamentalists say things won’t be good
for souls unbaptized or for those not living as they should.
I went to church when younger and followed rules as...

What Fascinates Me- On Seeing a Tiny DoorWho would answer if I knocked?
A little gnome in stripey socks.
Would he call out, “ Who dares to knock.”?
Or sic on me his pet blue fox.
Would it be a lonely hobbit
wearing cobbled boots he wears by habit
and a cobwebbed hat of furry rabbit
Sipping mead from...

What Fascinates MePlease say thank you~don't be rude
Ever sit and watch people feud
Over the hills and valleys to
People say crazy things that make me come unglued
Laughing until I am blue
Even some I think belong in the zoo

What Fascinates Me
Colors, amber, tangerine
Gold and hues of deep scarlet
Rustling in the quiet prayers
Of those who hear His breath
In the silence of a moment
Whispering Autumn magic
Melodies of gentle squirrels
Preparing for the winter
Charming birds in gilded coats
Praising the creator with chirps
Chortling songs, melodies
Lingering on the crisp air
Wonders alive,...

What Fascinates MeI’m mesmerized by the ocean.
Whether it’s almost silent and still
or thunderous and in turbulent motion,
I’m in awe and cannot get my fill.
The majesty of so vast a creation
overshadows each sight and sound
around me. During contemplation,
all else simply fades into...

What Fascinates MeMy fascination excels each time
sun descends, giving Earth a kiss.
There is no poetry, not a Rhyme
to tell of my reaction to bliss.
Sun leaves a trailing, lest we forget
her majesty, as dusk circles nigh.
Her colors that glow--a special set
dazzle even the wandering eye.
From butterscotch to apricot...

What Fascinates MeThey say Napoleon at his death
had a half inch object in his neck.
He often claimed he had been abducted
By strange men in a strange looking object.
I sometimes wish they would take me too.
Although I'm not much good past fifty two.
Seemingly it's our eggs they're after.
As...

What Fascinates Me
What fascinates me
is we fail to see
truth before our eyes
and bliss beats that rise.
Objects we behold,
around our mind rolled,
are present in space,
manifest by grace.
Before we exhale,
to again inhale,
there’s a pregnant pause,
of this dream world’s cause.
What fascinates me
is we fail to see
that we’re breathed by God,
yet...

What Fascinates MeI stand in awe of courageous women
Brave women who have broken out
Thrown off the shackles of domination
Said there is more to life, I deserve it
Who speak passionately without fear
And are willing to die for a just cause.
I stand in awe of thoughtful women
Who raise their...

What Fascinates MeHow cool to sway naïves unaware,
Cooler still, a man of ken fair,
Even a wall were I persist,
Not one— a half-wit puffed with air!
How pundits are plagued with spite’s tide,
Powerful with over-spilling pride,
Green horns nigh uninitiated,
Vexed, my verses had once decried.
One may from...

What Fascinates MeThis music that is playing on this bus
Is robust, cheerful and energetic.
African beat if there ever was,
To give the journey a touch of magic.
It brings pep into my African foot,...
Like I could stand and start moving
And start people wondering what's afoot
That an adult man could...
