Take Me to Xanadu
O, take me there, where mystical realms of starlight glisten
Pearlescent tapestries, indulgent in ethereal aura of Venus,
Emboldening me in celestial embrace, swept in your love,

When elatedly I speak, to quest amorous, of flirtatious eyes,
Greeting your smile,...

Morning - RedondillaThe morning sky fills heaven azure bright,
and shining eye doth peek to show from height.
Earth's hymnal's opened wide for choral strains,
creation's chorus trolls the sweet refrains.
Birds warble tunes unscored from post and trees,

The cattle lowing softly need their feed,

misgivings of wretchedness,
I harbor jealousy at young whip smart kids,
