In the depths of his soul, the gentleman keeps chords of silent harmony
In the depths of his soul, the gentleman keeps chords of silent harmony,
each key a secret, a universe of sounds that will not be uttered.
He carries in his heart an orchestra of dreams that need no stage,
for true art lies in the silence between the notes, in their unplayed state.
Like a magician of silence, he

Just set me free
All I have to do
to keep loving you
is to play that game
like you always do.
You hide your love
cause you were hurt before,
so you measure our love
like a game to score.
You stood by my side
till you took me for a ride
I couldn't have imagined it so,
You told me that

Soothing Chords from Angelic Lullabies
When days reflect like the veil of nightfall,
once bright eyes, like somber stars fail to glow.
World looks so big, but your soul feels so small,
as deep sighs mimic heartbeats breathing slow.
Before the storm absorbs my spirit's hope,
I search beyond weeping shadows of clouds,
counting my blessings to help weak mind cope.
Faith always finds me when I'm

Obstreperous Vocal Chords
I am lost, my eyes wide, and my heart quivering.
My legs are paralyzed, and I have no memory.
I stroll silently, my consciousness wandering.
I am alone inside an unexplored territory.
I would wish the room to be cold and inviting.
I envy our heat vitality to come from within,
trusting that it won't be an errorless meeting.
I simply wish

Unison
All human are equal,
Sex, faith, mind, skill, treat, mood, feet;
In "Homage" state,
Where we belong, live, controlled, undisturbed
Like chords.
Stranger, are we not equal?
Odd.

Freedoms Chords
Who would lend their essence to such words
Uncrumple them ‘midst fading sense of truth
Sharpen dull edgeless rusting swords.
Shouted once from blood stained creaking boards
Muttered by those grown “long in the tooth”
Who would lend their essence to such words
Whisper calls from echoless fjords
Spur the interest of our failing youth
Sharpen dull edgeless rusting swords
Challenge them to run

Composing Songs
Which key should I put this song in?
I sing in G Ionian/major comfortably,
Likewise the relative E Aeolian/minor scale.
Plus those guitar chords are easy as sin.
I could choose a scale that’s more exotic -
D Mixolydian has the same notes and chords.
Hungarian or Roumanian minor, Spanish Gypsy.
Or another scale derived from minor harmonic.
Keep it simple – let’s

Songs That Have Harmonious Chords
Songs that have harmonious chords
uplift and woo the ones
who listen and delight in their worth,
while they are taken beyond
our beautiful planet Earth;
let all hear your song played
with a thrilling sound!
God smiles down on us and his breath
is the gentle caress of the wind;
what pleases Him is our shining faith,
let's keep on singing aloud!
Songs that

Light of My Reason
The chords of wind plays
another song of dawn
each stroke a painting
behind the clouds,
slumber in my eyes
feel of dead throat
swallowed my last lyrics
Shall I ask for an encore
for the light of my reason?
