ROSE COLORED GLASSES
ROSE-COLORED GLASSES
“When you think about a show that you used to watch as a kid or as a teenager, you look at it through sort of rose-colored glasses…”Jordana Brewster

In memory’s soft glow,
the TV screen flickers alive,
time stretches like taffy,
the theme song lingers, a melody
transporting me through the portal of childhood.
The laughter of a

Colored Stones
Colored Stones
Topaz to yellow
Piano to daffodils
Emeralds to green
Tall grass is standing
Sapphire to blue
Mountains are sereal
Topaz and sapphire makes emerald
What is your favorite colored stone?
To wear around your neck?
Expensive pleasures
Many stones to choose from
Dwell into evanescence
Glimmering stones are captivating
Amber to orange

In a corner of the world, under an ink-colored sky, where the earth breathes of old and longing
In a corner of the world, under an ink-colored sky, where the earth breathes of old and longing,
Lies the country once called Romania, under the shadow of a silent and ruthless siege,
The cloud of darkness slowly descends, a siege as old as the name it bears,
An art of siege that knows no end, stretching its

Crying
Fix the damn house
She done
Paid to me
Ain’t gonna happen
When rent come?
Please don’t drag the pope across the
Carpet irish boy
Nana
He lying
Born military
Gonna die military?
Email a senator
Rejected by electricity
Suffer disgust
While Americans die
In poverty
Free speech from there
Doesn’t eclipse
Guarantee of unapproachable
Red tape
She’s sold
In the molded
Masochists lens
Her told
Isn’t the curious benign
On the frame
Her busty leers
Can she blame
Back inside her encyclopedia

Rose Colored Glasses
I like it when you place me
Up above on a pedestal
I like how you say my name
Even my nickname with love
I like how you chase me
With persistence until I catch you
And flood your face
With lacy licorice kisses
I like your gentle voice
When you ask why I
Haven’t called at all
That days

Rosy Granny Magic Glasses
I walked along route 58
There was Mumbai dreams and Harbor Freight
A hippie guy sold sunglasses from a stall
One had a rosy tint, I paid 5 dollars, that was all.
There was a warning label with it, I threw it away
Who needs all the fine print, what could it possibly say?
I looked at the traffic, it was

The Truth
Truth isnt what you think today
truth will be true tomorrow too
Truth isnt just what you feel
Its what happened, the facts, the data...
Interpreted truth is our own reality..
Our "rose colored glasses" on life
Psychiatry calls it our "filter" that we interpret the world through...
I dont know how to explain the truth in any simpler terms
To those that

Through Rose Colored Glasses
I wake at the ascension of a golden dawn
to meditate on early morning's mystique
To the amber shoreline, I'm always drawn
It's serenity and tranquility that I seek
How calm the lake's water without a ripple
On a sheet of glass, is my mirrored reflection
I seek its tranquil comfort as a babe, a nipple
To me, this is a moment

Stand under the bon-bon colored umbrella and watch the lizard rise from the ashes
A girl who's incredibly shy,
But if she opens up, she's like a bon-bon,
So colorful and exciting,
Her friends help her fly,
Another young lass,
Who will let you stand under her umbrella,
When your feeling down or lost,
But watch out for her sass,
Again another lady, yes,
Who needs encouraging and support,
Her friends stand behind her and say;
You will never be

blue colored glasses
I had heard of rose-colored glasses
But this old man was sitting in the middle of flowers
Wearing blue-colored glasses
As rosy as any hippie I had met
He only sees the good in people
Flowers adore him
They pop out of the earth and surround him
Wherever he goes
He has an ambiance few others have
I stared at the old crone
Disbelieving her
