Under The Moon lite Skies
From the moment I closed my eyes
I am taken back to another place another place
A place with a special memory,
Where you and I vowed to love each other eternally.
Sharing long walks under the
Moonlit skies ,
And wishing on a falling star before it was out of sight.
We’d plan our future

On The Sea of Love
LOVE can conquer all, they say
EVIL cannot prevail
LIFE is sweet when lived this way
FILL, with wind, the sail
LIFT me from this darkness, the darkness where I drown...
TILL, floating, burdens fall from me, none can weigh down.
LITE and free, oh let it be, where 'ere love can be found.

Lite Brite and Connecting the Dots
When I gaze up at the evening sky (by the way I think everybody should)
I’m often reminded of my younger days…back in my childhood.
Back when I played with my Lite Brite…for often I would sigh…when I saw the constellations I created…back when I controlled the sky.
And I wonder if ancient astrologers gazing up into the

The Lite-Bulb Blinked
Oh!
the lite-bulb
blinked
it did
I felt it
but what was it
and where is it now

Lite My Pyre
If you wanted my beating heart
You should’ve treated it right from the start
Yet you set me on fire
cause you hate yourself
Watched my burning pyre
As you berate yourself
Now my carcass smolders
In the ashes of
What sickens me to call our love
It gives me glee to see
It blow away in the wind
As if it

Star Lite
Some people are up to no good
And seldom behave like they should
When in Tinseltown
They let their hair down
Knowing starlets like Holly would

A Lite-Pink Band In the Sky
A lite-pink band in the sky
midst powdery baby-blue
I thought to myself, 'But why?'
Does it herald the birth of a girl
cared for by five loving brothers
Or perhaps it's a cotton-candy twirl
Could it foretell an early flamingo season
one where the brightly colored birds
Flock up north here where it's still freezin'
Or maybe

In the Lite of Time
One day when the yoke of sentiment
Is broken and burnt to ashes our minds
The mind of morality will question us with The lengths of our destruction rather than our Achievements in our society
One day when the image of corruption is
Made shadow less in our society then
We will stand to doubt our past in

Galaxy Lite-Brite
She takes the stars up in the sky
And connects their dots at night
Like a giant Etch A Sketch
Her own Galaxy Lite-Brite
Using neon highlighter
All the colors she can find
Drawing close the Cosmos
She closes both her eyes
Adding a bit of the abstract
She changes hands from left to right
On this giant Etch A Sketch
Her own Galaxy

Lite-Brite
Not just a plastic peg
You reflect the light below
Born into a guiding template
Cast members for the show
We play until our light burns out
Game rules as old as time
Look within and find the source
A true self paradigm

Summers Night Lite Sky's
Summer sky's have never seem so dark
I think I'm tearing us apart
My past is to deep to keep us hear
Listing to the birds chirp as the sun rise
Seeing the moon fade away and hide
with me suffocated in your arms
Wrapped so tight around me it is my only security
Because if I am not lying
