Flags & Beams,(eighth or sixteenth notes)
-----------------------------------------------
Much more than this'
it started from auh
simple kiss
on a day I will never
forget
pleasing and teasing
fun
we had just begun
our romance
one that comes off the page
lights camera action
the premire attraction
something the world
'wants to see
me and my leading lady
are having our first baby
the congradulations
to she and me
---------------------------------------------
( a shift in trimph and power)
THE TRUMPETS STARTS AUH PLAYING!
------------------------------------------
I'm the what
in her thoughts
the beganning part
denotes
a cherished rtogetherness
one adorned
and one to reminces
baby how's about that kiss
been waiting all day
it's on me tonight
tell the chef
to get it right
darling oh what ah night
me and you
thats right
by the way you look out sight
time for romancing
------------------------------------------
the color section
------------------------------------------
catch auh groove
cut uauh rug
click my fingers
enjoy the hug
what's the mastro thinking of
oh what auh night
for dancing
Thoughts of a glass as half empty
will make some feel they are denied.
The missing part suggests a loss
that aches the way they feel inside.
Conversely, though, to think half full
denotes that they are getting some.
The word and mind as one will work
to render each an inverse sum.
The word like empty strikes a nerve-
helps a pessimist to crash-dive.
But full conveys to satisfy-
to make the optimist high-five!
The Main Theme For
" Subject To The Movie"
--------------------------
The Orchestration
--------------------------
I once believed love would
keep us together
we'd go through whatever
our desire not to be apart
I characterized, the reason why
it was cool to say I love you
that feeling we share
the one no one would dare
to come between just
cause I love you
Everytime we kiss goodbye
I never doubt the reason why
cause your the top
you're the best
that I must confess
it's love I guess
When I lose my concentration
or get losed in conversation
I step away to ask
what do she want me to say
That passionate behavior
is the kind that'll save yah
when you loss your concentration
or lose you way.
what then to say ah
what denotes the point of our
existence
i don't know when
I can't remember how
I just know it's a special thing
we have together
Spring, as the first rays fall on frozen ground
The dew glistening in the early morning sun
And below ground the green curl begins
As heat from the astronomers source
Penetrates the distant land
The budding fern begins her journey
Long fallen autumnal foliage
Settled over winter under snow
Degraded now, brings new life
Nurture the ground, replenishing
Restoring natures balance to the soil
For new life to spring as the seasons forge ahead
The summer showers to moisten and some
The thirsts of long sun-soaked days
Restoring, verdant and texture as fronds unfurl
To sway in autumnal breezes, as earth cools
Damp in the air denotes the coming fall
Mists lay on meadows as nights draw in
Finally the green fades, dried and darker
Winter wind flurries and rustles the tendrils
All visible growth now returning to earth
Yet as the winter rages, snow and ice
Below the soil the fern she waits, patiently
Until the sun once more penetrates the soil in spring.
Just a kiss , beloved iowa , kiss you on your lips
Meaningfully, fully denotes, I love you witness

Written words by James Edward Lee Sr 2026
I may not
like it
Most
au contraire
But writing
it true
Your right
to share
Our language
different
Our thoughts
opposed
Yet both
defined
By what
we know
Each word
denotes
What pain
would hide
Unto
ourselves
The meaning
thrives
With couplets
foreign
And quatrains
skewed
Our Muses
strangers
Respect
— on view
**
Inception
Tomorrow freshly baited
— the future reborn
**
The Beury Building
Art deco
majestic
she waits
in the dust
Broad and Erie’s
‘Grande Olde Dame’
her memory
in trust
Of ancient
glories
from the past
stripped down to the bone
Set to rise
with fate reprised
where boyhood visions
— grow

"I wanted you to see what real courage is, instead of getting the idea that courage is a man with a gun in his hand." — Harper Lee, To Kill a Mockingbird
"I wanted you to see what real courage is,
instead of getting the idea that courage is a man with a gun in his hand."
Courage is not always displayed by using your fist
Nor a weapon, as you will come to understand
It is said that true courage is being willing
to take the path that you believe in,
to be true to yourself and lead a life that's fulfilling
when all others take the easy way to follow the crowd.
Violence often denotes cowardice
Always stand up for the underdog by speaking out loud.
There's no debate. Don’t retaliate
If she makes you so mad, uses all the patience you had,
Dear son - Walk the other way!
If she hits you first , so your anger will burst,
If she blocks you, so you can’t leave, please believe,
My manly son – walk the other way !!!
Sometimes it takes more courage to do nothing and walk away.
There within it takes real courage than with a weapon in hand to stay.
Today’s anniversary marks twenty four years,
of the Nine-Eleven Attack that was given to fears.
As a bell denotes the dead,
each name will be read.
On a day in history that was awash with tears.
TIME AND GRACE
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
time and grace intertwine
time gives us moments
grace restores and bestows
time unfurls
seconds dance
minutes waltz with hours
time marches forward
days turn into years
never rewinds
time beguiles
always alludes
denotes impermanence
grace guides
illuminates life’s labyrinths
makes us whole
grace whispers
moves with elegance
ballet in motion
grace soothes
flows like river
brings purpose and ease
time and grace a duo
subtle yet profound
transcendent and unbound
Never still the mind of God.' continual motion
Growth of purpose' rythem of love, making..'
man and woman' comes from above.' Growth of grass
Errosion of cliffs.' Waves upon oceons work
To shift..Grit in oyster, kernel growth.' Denotes
Wisdom and tears..Indeed; my oath.! Wind that moves
Emotions to change; sadness to elation such
A range.. Snail or Eagle slow or fleet Earth and
Universe.' Of all such I speak..Can you feel the
Intended.? Do you reach? Do you yearn? Are
You commited? Such is helpful. If of God
You would learn.' satan apes God even as he dies
A burned out relic with rhetorical lies.' Who
Offers most often (that which you have!) yet to
Rob is his intention...I'll call his odds.' May I
Talk the Truth.? For it brings him down.' His
Is a tawdrey glory..His is the volatile crown
Dry as paper..If i may.? He readied he is basted and he will climb in the tray..Be seperate from him.' Always seek the Lord by
The way of His waters upon His holy shores
Travel through the ' red sea ' turn not aside.'
The Great God of all motion.' Intends to take
Him, HIs bride.!
Its dark, so dark my surrounds are quiet..Yet the
Dawn advances.' So; so silent.' My spirit my mind
Conjects on time, on hours passing.. and new years
Chimes' minutes become decades...No way to reverse'
The church of England denotes on 'net zero?' I think
Religion.. Is it a curse? Always waiting for some rigid form
They are never any different, lovers of a frigid norm.'
As the west advances to inanity, in the east is much
Division, Russia now is capitailist; i see, yet China still in communisam' sometimes they claim they are partners?
The whole worlds on the boil..Oh the light of dawn.! I
Must away into the morn; of my new turmoil."
That's the Venice door showered with beauty!
Where loneliness is daily on duty,
By its side, a small pool just sailed two boats,
The occupants are most probably ghosts,
If they're humans, they must be real cuties.
First I saw of this was in Djibouti,
But that was left decrepit and sooty,
So, for elegance that beauty denotes;
That's the Venice door!
The decorations are made quite pretty,
It's like from a last century movie,
Flowers even near the pool that boat floats,
It's the clean surrounding that makes wealth gloats,
Stamps of opulence colors it pretty,
That's the Venice door!
The wounded sigh of a father,
Tells his concern for his child
Whose actions seem stupid and wild.
The wounded sigh of a teacher,
Reflects his worry for his pupil
His progress, if he can’t quadruple.
The wounded sigh of a wife,
Shows her anxiety for her better half
As she senses a threat for her marriage graph.
The wounded sigh of a doctor,
Denotes his apprehension for his sick person
Whose health does progressively worsen.
The wounded sigh of an emperor,
Is the sign of bother for the safety of his nation
As he sees his warriors’ gradual elimination.
The wounded sigh of an environmentalist,
Is the signal of his distress against pollution
And his search for the ways of its solution.
The wounded sigh of a peace lover,
Is the symbol of his hostility towards wars
As they destroy the lives of crores.
In the house of commons, in Canada there's a problem' well
Your Damien; yes' he got wordy, and the speaker.?? He got nerdy.?
A word that denotes mis-truth; apparently not there; in use.?
In that place, it is a no no.' I never thought it would be so?
Controversial and affronting, in the place of egalat'e where
They even praised; that nazi.?? I thought it a misnomer; yet
No chance.? And like some loner, the M P who held to his
Reasons?? got denied access; for a season.' I think he took
One for the people? so i'll shout this from the steeples.'
His action served even the street, of liberals' he got booted
By the snooty, in the service of true unity, i reason that
Canadians of every type, should value Damien.' If you
See him out just greet him..In the greatness of the season
Take the chance, shake his hand; denying this dis-reason.'
(And the liar.? You know what? My history says.. Forgot! )
Ohh
All hail the
Halo
Central to our universe
Once luminous transparent bright
Described as the color purple star
Prophecy denotes one coming day
Will gracefully descend
Fom the heavens and saintly sky
Above our sleepy heads
We dream and pray to up at night
To spirit us and our souls away
When we ourselves one day eventually die
To a higher plain and state of consciousness
Transported on the wings of flying angels
Beckoning welcoming us towards the light
Like we perceived and believed to be the
Halo
We prayed and wished upon awaited
