A million lovers lines, unread on clever napkins
The only kisses felt when a wiped face happens
When I think of you, with tears streaming down my face
It's because no one in this life or the next could ever take your place
When a picture of you is all that, I have to remember
How sweet your cheek feels and where my hand used to surrender
They say you're in a better place now
I find it hard to believe and don't see how
And so came a time, when humanity
finally understood the meaning of life
Why we are here
How creation started
When it will come to an end
What happens when we die
Who is the one true God
Whoa!! Who is the one true God
Who is it, tell me
Is it not evident, reading the above

spreading full feathers
like the resurrected sunshine ~
shroud around singing
pots full of water
search soft drink bottles around ~
create new stories
the sun goes to rest
moon enters gates of the sky ~
shrink within their wings

There are people that are clever,
And sorry, but some that are 'never'.
That is, just cause you have a pen,
Doesn't make talent your best friend.
You can wish and dream and hope for 'able',
Spending hours at the table.
Dashing this and daunting that,
When in reality, your work is crap!
It doesn't mean no-one cares,
Or that life for you isn't fair.
It's just that God gifts a few,
And the rest of us don't have a clue.

At the Bottom's dropped out.
I'll write to you
the end of the story.
The only one i know.
Sundown on a field of dandelions.
No step closer to rapture,
I smiled with no hurry
when i found myself here,
at the bottom's dropped out.
It never rests.
not even when it's over.
Like stale conversation
without bread nor water.
A river martin's graceful flight.
My smile came easy
when i saw you here
at the bottom's dropped out.
Lampblack spills on a white canvas,
like a clock running out of time.
The mood a smile brings on,
it never has to die.
Dustup Old Frisian theological nonsense.
The clouds burst with meaning
at the bottom's dropped out.
Like a sun spot on the Sun
Life stands still
as seasons change.
It’s not worth winding up the long rewind
of a slippery slope
towards yesterday’s face another time.
Let's have last seen each other here
At the bottom's dropped out.
A Clever Endeavor
There are things which we did endeavor,
In such a way that was cute and clever;
In life did live,
Attention to God give;
We should also love Him forever and ever.
Jim Horn
Life is a learning process
Each day a useful test
But some people, you’ll agree
They are born with a degree
Of self delusion
They’re the ones who know it best.

If I were a clever man,
who knew the ways of all,
it might help me along the way,
and save me from a fall.
If really clever, I would be
perfect in every way,
I wouldn’t have to take advice,
from others every day.
I‘d be the very, very best.
my knowledge would shine through,
then everyone would be my friend,
and ask me, what to do.
If I were wise I’d share with all,
some of the things I know,
then friends would look at me in awe,
and follow where I go.
You’ve come this far, so what d’ya think,
is this the one you’d love,
a clever ****, who knows it all,
and feels one step above?
I’m glad I’m not a clever man,
I love to seek advice,
for vanity’s the quickest way
to lose one’s friends for life.
I know, that I know nothing
of the things that make one smart,
but with friends, and love, and kindness,
I’ve found comfort in my heart.

How clever the fly
To buzz and sit
And watch the world go by
From the window sunlit.
Making its space
With a thump and a whack
Through the dust it can taste
A delicious snack.
How clever the fly
To sit in the sun.
On the sill it will die
When the day is done.
I feel empty as a flat
But you lift me with your might
And I can find solace in that
You make me see the light
No matter how I feel
Will never lose my way
I will always take the wheel
And never go astray
Confusing as I am
Your understanding is amazing
Even when I ham
All I hear from you is praising
If I lose the path
You're sure to point the way
Never with a wrath
You're good what can I say
I love you more than ever
Amen from in my heart
I might not be that clever
But you know we'll never part
It does not take much guessing
I'm religious to the core
You can count this as a blessing
No need to tell you more
You always were so clever in how you lived your life,
How you joked and laughed and smiled, and how you dealt with strife,
You had the perfect answer when the time was right,
And you always found a way to win every single fight.
You always were so clever but you missed the biggest part.
You think that life is nothing more than showing that you're smart,
When really life is all about being loved forever.
And now that you are alone I bet you don"t feel so clever.
We make motions, to fight lack of resistance,
That are recognized by only ourselves.
- Motion noticed - We're still certain of our stance
So to the depths of emotion our fight delves.
Forever and a day, plus an hour or two
Led to hollow war waged out of control.
- Isn't all we need - a couple or a few
For a mist of lies and deceit to slowly roll?
Follow me down to the ragged, shallow
Explosion-torn landscape we live in.
While there we'll find corpses to hallow,
Or those dying quickly, wasted and thin.
But Cleverer, Or More Clever still,
Is the addition of your friendship,
- When your love is this powerful. -
Frighteningly harsh, like stinging whip.
You've never been closer than the here and now.
But while I advance, you move farther away.
I'll take what I can't and give back the "how;"
Let short-lived loneliness bring what it may.
