Moonlight's Bright Tonight, Part 1

Moonlight’s bright tonight.
Let’s go outside and play
In the fields of the village.
Morning’s far away.

Still crisp air holds its breath
In silence as we watch
Moonlit shadows creeping west,
Forever out of reach.

We try to chase the shadows
Running through the trees,
Standing tall like rocket ships
Against the lonely seas.

Come along and run with me,
The fields await our gaze.
There lay mysteries

Let Me Invite You Lord

With the mountains with the stones
Let me invite you Lord (Allah)
At the dawns with the birds
Let me invite you Lord

At the deep of water with the fishes
At the deserts with the roes
As a dervish by your name
Let me invite you Lord

At the sky by Jesus
At the montane by Moses
With the baton at my palm
Let me

Petit Fours Etiquette- The Soupbone Crooners

When asked what there names were
one responded quickly and spoke with a very heavy voice
saying his stage name was "Rink rasher"
and his partners was " Fresh Meat"
he shook my hand and began a conversation:
while his partner stood silent with a frown on his face.
I was try to bring him into the conversation asking questions often

The Invite

My husband had a invite
he told me just today
and he's going away for one night
and it's a dress-up 'play away'

He's really looking forward
to the 'play away'  day
and not just straight-forward
as he dresses up to 'play'

Now a large crowd is going
but i'm too ill to go as well
and they're  all 'playing' to pose
and your

An Invite isn't a Gesture to Change me

If I invite you into my home, please do not show up with the floor plan and Pinterest boards of your ideas to decorate it as you see fit. 
I like the plants I have hung up and the rainbow catchers hung in the window. They bring in growth and sunshine. 
And before you forget,

So why not invite hope to stay.

Premium MemberCome, I Invite You to Suckle

Sea, I stand upon your shore with the rising of the sun 
as sanguine shades of dawn blend with an amber sky
Long before the overture of the human race has begun
I walk barefoot on the sand; to moonlight wave goodbye

When Ra lifts his heavy eyelids and wipes away the sleep
his light is softly reflected in

Premium MemberIn the labyrinth of the evening, I invite you to lose ourselves in the scent of tea

In the labyrinth of the evening, I invite you to lose ourselves in the scent of tea.
Today, love, you are my queen, and I - your humble procession,
Here, a throne made of dreams' foam is laid out for you,
Come, step out from the dream and allow love to bloom into reality.
Let the tea dance with

Premium MemberThe Mystery of Time When True Love Invite

The mystery of time when true love invite
The promise of full blooms response to the light
The way of an eagle soaring in flight
The joy of a blind man receiving his sight

The skill of a poet’s poem recite
The mystery of time when true love invite
The way that day turns into night
The romance a candle creates burning

Invite

You only came because you need,
It was never about us, it was never about me,
But in the wake of that need, it opened my eyes,
Because sometimes we don't realize our own needs in this life,
We reach out not knowing the outcome of who we invited to the table,
We had no idea that that person would

Premium MemberWhy Did He Invite Her To the Movies

Midge the Mouse could tell that her date was not into her
He was busy slurping down all the butter off their popcorn
She wondered why did he invite me, the sneaky little cur.
Because my Uncle Zeke is the owner of Movie Galaxy in Big Horn?

They got a discount on the popcorn, he only had to pay

Absent Friend

They dusted me down after twenty years.
Come to my birthday, have a few beers.
We missed you so much my dear friend.
Sorry about the invites we failed to send.

I was a best mate, sometimes a big sap.
Your finest cue, the liver and bacon rap.
Giggling about nothing entering a camp.
Stuck behind a wheelchair climbing a ramp.

The

Premium MemberLets Invite Everybody

Do you want to play?
Oh, yes! Indeed!
Let’s dance and twirl and make loud steps.
Let’s invite the boy with the wheels.
Okay.
Let's invite the white girl who has freckles
Okay.
Let's invite the kid whose hair is beaded and braided.
Okay.
Let’s invite EVERYBODY!
Okay.
At six, they include everybody.
They invite everybody.
They love everybody.
Unless they have been taught differently.
These lucky children have not
