And Then Came You

"and then came you"

I walked in circles going through motions
sights and sounds were faint and silent
and then came you
with the touch of your hand and gentle whispers
my world has changed with no turning back
with a wish upon a star and light of the moon
every moment with you is the midnight hour
yesterday is but a memory to rest
today is the time to feel
tomorrow candles light forevermore
I walked in circles going through motions
sights and sounds were faint and silent
and then came you

Songs That Remind You

A song won't let you soon forget
Those moments and memories that just will not rest
Tugging your hearts strings and keep putting you to the test
Pressing on your very soul
Until you give in and let it all take absolute control
Your dreams in the present tense by them will be stoled
Cause as of yet your future with him has to go still a bit longer untold
Time has taken and yet still continues to take more and more moments and memories that 
with him I need and want ever so much
Places in time that's slipping on by where I should have his touch
Faith is what I try so hard to keep
Tears I want no longer to weep
I can now be strong where in my life before I was week
Smiling about what he and I had is now my choice, crying from these eyes no no it will not 
seep
When I now close my eyes to sleep
I wish upon a star
That whoever he's with, oh where ever you are
I hope you remember those songs that remind you that I'm always with you and your heart 
well it's telling you there's no place that far

Premium Member O Babe What's Become of Us Edited

O.Babe 
What's become of Us

I'm saddened by the sorrow
That I no longer feel
I could wish upon a star 
But I know that isn't real
The daily life of always 
And here to there to share
Not met with meant no longer
And a sombre stand to care
We miss you in the evening 
In the twilight next to day 
Then there's that part we lose you 
In Isn't nothing new we say
So cry a tear a river widening
And wonder why it's gone 
We hear it over and over 
Like a hit me hurt me song
The longer than forever
We can reach and we can learn 
The turns we find so often 
Like the embers that don't burn
So Oh Babe I'm so sorry 
I don't miss you most of all 
I'll try to remember you always 
Like we just talked in a call
And find me in the evening 
Never grieving at not near 
The clearest we can offer to 
The loved ones we can't hear 
Is Amen and an always 
We can find find it when we try
The gone and guess is better 
Than we've done our all to cry
And truer than a sunset 
We can't see that it is clear 
Always is she was lovely in
I still miss you most my dear

Premium Member My Favorite Songs Are Disney

Disney songs uplift me.
They make me giddy.
I want to dance.
Hi Ho Hi Ho It’s off to Work We Go!

Fantasia is startling new each time I watch it.
The colors, the music, the jazz!
Disney wanted all of the songs to sound classical.
When you Wish Upon a Star……

I am a cartoonist, I know it is because of Disney.
Mickey, Minnie, Daisy, Donald, Goofy!
How much more American can you get?
A Spoonful of Sugar Makes the Medicine Go Down…

Disneyland and Disney World.
Oh, man. Who could ever get tired of Disney?
Not to even mention the princesses or
Burl Ives and the “Ugly Bug Ball”.
Disney makes me sing and dance.

Finding Happiness

Finding Happiness

When you wish upon a star
Wishes are supposed to come true
So many times I wished for happiness
Dreamed of just laughing and smiling
All for no reason
But my wishes were never answered
They just drifted off into space
Lost forever to infinity
Yet, I still had hope
After looking a lifetime
I did find a spark of hope
The secret I had been looking for
Living my life for
It was hidden in a secret place
Inside a box of chocolate chip cookies
Just one single cookie with a cold milk
Showed me complete happiness
Happiness I knew existed but could never find
All I needed to be forever happy
Would be the ninety-nine cents for a pack
But for now, I must wait
Because fate has cursed me all over again
I only have ninety-eight cents
Just my luck
Maybe after all of that I will wish upon a star
And maybe it will give me a penny
But, alas, I didn’t get that either


Premium Member Zigzagging

The mind flits left to right
Like a moth to the light
Forward and back seem so simple
Appearing as immutable principle
Doubt rears its ugly head
Then we try the opposite instead

Thinking stuck in the primal abyss
Leaping out to a false premise
Landing on a non sequitur
Sillogisms flying past in a blur
The quid pro quo one can't deny
Shows logic that we all decry
Aristotle would be exasperated
While the duplicitous are vindicated

Go through two doors at the same time
Prove it's not shorter to use a straight line
Flighty creatures that we are
When we wish upon a star
Twin deceivers are zig and zag
Truth can evade like boast and brag

Some thinkers think to bend not break
Especially with crucial issues at stake
Forever we're swerving to get so far
And that's the truth of how we are
Mostly unsure of what we know
Off zigzagging we blithely go

Premium Member The Advice He Never Gave

“I don’t like to give advice…but I will tell you what I know.” my grandpa used to say.
and much of the advice he never gave…I still carry with me today.

No one is perfect…he would say…we all make mistakes and need time to grow.
In a world that sometimes moves too fast…It’s best to take things slow.

He knew how a simple smile could change a persons day…he knew not to ridicule.
He knew people-run religions could be wonderful…and like people they could be cruel.

He knew the value of hopes and dreams…he knew how to wish upon a star.
He knew the importance of friends and family in shaping who we are.

He knew how a gentle touch…a random act of kindness can help wipe away ones tears.
He knew joy is often waiting…on the other side of fear.

He knew we should listen more to nature…he loved a good bookstore.
He knew you could love the soldiers who do the fighting…but hate that there are wars.

He knew there is more love than hate in the world…
he knew where to find joy and how to have fun.
He knew innocent people should never die at the hands of someone with a gun.

He knew our pets pass away too soon and our children grow up too fast…
two reasons, he knew, why we should make each moment last.

He knew there is beauty in everyone…he knew it is okay to cry.
He knew the power of forgiveness, compassion and acceptance…
he knew we should all give them a try.

These are just a few of the things my grandpa knew that I still carry with me today…
For a man who did not give advice…he sure had a lot to say.

New Year's Night

New Year’s night


There is a fire burning and people are drinking;
People are dancing and people are singing.
Auld lang syne, it’s another year gone,
So cherish this night, because it will soon be done.


The snow is falling all around us and many friends are merry;
So give everyone a hug and kiss those cheeks.
Come on now, feast upon the many cherries and berries;
Swig from the tankard and have yourselves some meat,
Because this is a celebration, so enjoy the feast.


Hold the one you love and greet your neighbour’s as family,
Because soon enough, you will be back at each other’s throats.
So give them your blessings and wish upon a star;
Offer everyone a piece of peace 
And see this New Year as a chance to end the feud 
And as a chance for new relationships to grow.

To be the master of my own destiny. Ruler of my future
To walk on my own hopes to nurture
 Thoughts of hopes and peace of mind
Thinking of joys that I might find
A chance to be at ease
Not just a tease
But to stand with pride
No reason to hide
From the people around
Cry without a sound
I wish upon a star
It isn't so far
That I lose sight
Get lost in the darkest night
Using hope as a light
Peering into the edge of tomorrow
No longer lost to sorrow
But lefting my head up high
I would like to fly
If but for a day
To know the right thing to say
To take away what's wrong
Been so very long
Need someone to believe
Give me some relief
Free from choices I make
Chances I take
To have sight
Live in the light
Rest from this fight
Let me see
What's to be
Face life on my own two feet
Myself I must meet
No retreat
Let me know
Help me show
My way back to  light
Out from the night
Peace of mind 
Is all I want to find
Set me free 
So I can be
Free my head
Free me from dread
To make life grand
To understand
What I must do
To myself be true
Yet my life I must start
Reawaken my heart
To have a chance
I must take a stance 
Control the negative feed
Hope is what I need
     to be freed
