Best Leon Poems


This Masqurade - a Leon Russell Tribute

Ivory pieces transcending space and time
where the words just got in the way
lost inside the smoke of just another day

A song for you deep from a sensitive mind
reaching for a reaction for actions done wrong
forgiveness sung for a special friend of mine

When the dew drops no longer shine for me
and a hard rain begins to fall
they'll be no visitors after midnight
but I'll still be calling your name 

We were all alone and I was 
singing this song only for you!!

LEON, MY KING, HIS KING
IRIS, HIS QUEEN, HIS *****
I LOVE LEON
LEON IS MY KING
I WOULD DIE FOR HIM
HE WOULD KILL ME FROM WITHIN
I WOULDN'T DARE LOVE ANOTHER
LEON IS ALL I NEED
HE WOULD KILL ME SLOWLY
IF I LEFT FOR ANOTHER
I HAVE LEON THEREFORE
I HAVE LIFE
THANKS LEON FOR LOVING ME
NO THANKS FOR THIS LIFE

Leon & Gayle - Fifty Years

Now we mark a big occasion
The “Golden Wedding Anniversary“
Of George and Sally, or to you 
“Leon and Gayle”
now here’s their tale ...

Gayle was a city of Moffett girl,
Leon a shy Allentown farm boy.
Opposites attracted,
And the result was just pure joy.

They raised cat, dogs, horses, cows, 
Vegetables, flowers, bugs and all kinds of toys.
they also managed very well
To raise three girls and two boys.

Chris was the first,
Then Susie and Sandie followed suit.
Next was Randy and Justin,
All great kids to boot.

Now, ol’ Leon and Gayle
Are grandparents as well.
There’s Amber, Jason and Jonathan 
and Blake and Lexi, we think their all swell.
Step-grandparents to Maddi and Thomas
then great-grandparents to Llana as well.

They’re just outstanding people,
So charming and down to earth.
A Mom and Dad like those two?
Can’t tell you what it’s worth.

The fact is that we truly
Just love them both to pieces.
Growing up was truly fascinating,
And always lots of fun.

So to this most engaging man
And his sweetheart of a wife.
“Leon and Gayle”, 
“Sally and George”, 
“ Papa George and Grammie” 

To fifty years of bliss.
It took half of a century
For a day as fine as this!

Thank you for joining us in making 
this a Happy 50th Anniversary!

         “The Heaton Family”
  Chris & Rick, Susie & Richard,
Sandie & Patrick, Randy & Jennifer,
             Justin & Shelita,
   Amber, Llana, Jason, Jonathan,
                 Blake, Lexi,
         Madeline, & Thomas.


Leon Sings Praises

I sing praises on God youtube
For every-one to see
I sing about what God has done
And how He set me free
If you want to hear me sing
Go to this site and see
Just type in, Leon sings praises
God bless you all from me.

There Once Was a Mouse Named Leon

There once was a mouse named Leon
who always lit up in neon
he went to the park 
while it was real dark
yet, could see everything he could wee on.

Ain'T Got the Slang But You Got the Face To Play the Role Ode To Kings of Leon

Backstage and waiting
For my favorite 
Band to just show up 
Anticipation
Has got me dizzy

Heavy songs like: "Milk"
and "McFearless"
Here's my respect 
For your music;

On God, Life 
Teenage sex,
and "Tranies"

Southern
Home-grown

Kings


Inspiration Kings of Leon Somebody

Think I'm showing off
Full of bull
Never there to push when pulled
Dulled 
Looking to cull the itches
Looking to subtle the trenches
No that cant be
Not from what these eyes see
Not nobody
Correction.....
Not anyone can come between 
Nor hurricane typhoon
Rollercoaster monsoon
Even with destiny' great angst
Or fates recluse
Or judgement day' recruit
Uff spine abiphida too
The gallows n their noose
A 4 star general in an army of stampeding moose
Man my mind is open like a splinter
This unorthodoxed summer fling will survive the coldest winter
But right now I need a right hand
N that ain't the impression that's not given from off the muscle
Stay busy
Hustle 
Hard 
Hustle 
Hustle 
Yeah its all to simple
Too easy to lay down with infidelity
But not me
Get it through ur skull
PLEASE 
N help or leave it be
This mystery still intrigues me
To be seen of whether Shakespeare had it
' to be or not to be '
This sink ain't sunk so get outta the water stream......Peace

Happy Anniversary (Leon and Sue)

I'm not sure the exact date 
of your special day
but here's sending you best wishes
and wishing you every happiness
along the way
to a wonderful couple 
Leon and Sue
happy anniversary
 God bless you.


happy anniversary Leon and sue,
with love and best wishes from diane, Josh, james and leanne

Second Time's the Charm

I’ll keep this short, 
that all may know
These words I write, 
I write to show

A singer* once said of 
the trade that he plied
A poem is a person, 
stands naked and spied

A compliment given 
reflects back upon 
The giver if not 
those words were steeped on

So when you tell me 
just so, to be nice
“The stanzas you wrote 
I just had to read twice”

(I'd expect you to do so
And second that motion
Re-read it my self
Added words to this notion)

Please do a poem honor 
and read it again
Don’t let first time through 
be simply the end.


*Here's to Leon Russell!

Kings of Leon

The road in front of us falls away,
The radio static becomes a wall we nod our heads to,
And the car splutters along like cheap fireworks
Again your eyes slide off the dash onto my hands
Which are busy being nervous.
In this silence it is impossible not to feel like an uninvited guest, 
All flesh, no voice. 
I reach to touch the speakers and this rope around us
Snaps.
After two hours, three dirt roads, and one discussion of what real rock music is,
We still have an ocean in front of us

Maybe April comes early this year
Maybe winter decides to stay home
Maybe my skin becomes a lighthouse
Just maybe.

You are the last shred of lightning that connects me to the storm.

Leon Byner Has Left the Building

Leon Byner has left the building 
After 23 years of people bargaining
He was the people’s voice to be heard
And on most things he was undeterred 

I remember him spinning discs in the 60s and 70s
As a radio disc jockey so cool you see
Before shifting to talkback radio at 5AA
Where he would take on the issues for SA

So like everyone he has reached his 
final show
And today 1/12/22 it was his time to go
There will be people now taking a sigh
As South Australians we wish him well and goodbye.

Gonna Miss You (With Leon In Mind)

I wanna hear your voice one more time.
Wanna taste your lips before it's to late.
Wanna embrace you till my time's up.
I want you to stay here with me.
And hold on tight.
Don't fly away into the battle of war.
Where darkness embraces your soul.
But if you must.
Promise...
Promise me you'll return.
Promise me I'll see you when your days are up.
Tell me that you love me.
And all will be okay.
Cause I'm drowning in my tears.
Till you're back.
In my arms.
