The Red Eyed Stranger El Alborotado

Written By:
Traducir Al Spaniel'
A.K.A El Alborotado
-----------------------------------
To support all of this emotion
to take everything in stride
to up lift to and to encourage
put all that doubt and envy aside
how can go on saying
when so many want me o fail
hold my head up and keep on stibing
hoping one day I would prevail
Keep me grooving to the music
gone darling do your thang
breakfast was so delicious
Darling you treat me like a King
about yesterday I apologize
but don't keep doing that sorta thing

Your Ole man
started hushing
stopped talking when I came around
he get up when I started sitting
acting like he didn't want me around
 his actions both subtle and overt
had an impact on everything
made me feel like ah fifth wheel
put a dark cloud on everything
got mad and started cussin
that's not a nice or respectful thing
got in the way of our performance
putting a damper on everything
now I'm ah red eyed stranger
a tear drop fell in my beer
all that cussin and fussin
is such annoyance
it put's ah damper on everything

Premium Member LOVE LYRICAL a Devotion Series Poem for Us

Play only love songs
For tonight’s starshine hours,
   with  its winking 
Constellations all
Hailed
And wished upon 

To make this night completely
Ours  ~
   and keep love’s longing
Lasting  
Here within us
Near
   enough to
Touch
Smiles
  
While our wooing words turn into
    gifts of kisses 
Re-living our first embraces
    with  hearts pulsing
Music

       Now
Freely composing itself 
     for our time yet to come 
Living in a choral harmony
    with love’s true verses
Coursing rivers
Amidst the patient rythms of
Lasting 
Eternity…

Ode to the Jodhpur Sky

O Jodhpur sky, vast and wide,
You sparkled late in starry light.
Your silence so deep, 
Made my longing heart yield with ease.

Pink and purple in the vesper,
Yellow-orange at dusk, so tender.
You guide and embrace my texture,
My soul wrapped tight in your rapture.

I declare my love to you, 
My lips await your touch so true! 
My hands & height - so small, so slight, 
Will you accept my love, my light? 

You stayed with me forever, 
You rained when I cried, 
You turned dry when I ached, 
Is it pity or your love infinite? 

I fear to leave - will you miss me? 
Or will I lose you and Jodhpur's key? 
Will you hide and forget me so fast, 
Without a tear, as I fade to the past.


Waxing Lyrical

I love her easy smile
Am mesermerized by her beauty
She has the gentleness of a Gazzel
The grace of a Girraffe browsing 
Upon the majestic accacias of the Savana
Her voice makes Fairies jelous in the nether world
Her's is a love the Angels and Jinn alike crave for
She has that tantalizing quality her Kind are famed for
When am with her all mine good moods ignite in love
I stare at the laptopscreen thinking only of her beauty
Her love leaves my innards all mellow and wanting more
When with her it's as though time grows wings and flees
It's with her I chose to make mine life revolve around
Till eternity as we hold hands and walk meadows of Genna

Pop! I hear lyrics!

My thoughts turned to Poetry

Heartstring

Drum beats
         Sunrises
                 Dancing dusky clouds
In tune with blues

In leafy garden
            To the hills of yearning
                      Never ending song
Sounds undying

Flowing rivers
            Flying doves
                      Flowery forest
                                   Primordial Eden
                                             Your smile
                                   Your eyes
                      Your silhouette

‘Till dawn
       Covers the night
                   Moonlight
                          Crystal Sea
                                 Reflections
                                      Your beauty
                                 From deep within
                           Your honesty
         And simplicity
My heart’s felicity

Till I dream of you
           Without fantasy
                         This heartstring
                                          Melody
                                     Harmony
                         Play intimately

Lyrical Journey of a Lover through Taiwan-II

When you spread your arms wide with a smile so bright, 
No words are needed, our souls are in flight. 
Let's watch as the birds soar over Green Island's charm, 
Flying carefree through nature's loving arms. 
Who knows, we may even catch sight from afar, 
Of the brave souls who found refuge there, like a guiding star.

When the scorching southern sun leaves you thirsty and drained,
I will become Keelung's cooling, reviving misty rain,
Showering you with a refreshing, gentle downpour,
Perhaps stealing a slow, passionate dance under Jiufen Falls once more.

If you are the rich weaver of our passionate tales,
I will be the lasting book that carefully chronicles its details,
Lovingly stitching every memory, to cherish and unveil,
Our epic tale is etched, a bond that can never fail.

Premium Member lyrical accessories

punctuation walks
on eggshells
when
words like
               water
                       falls
flow into nothingness,
soaked in syrupy syllables
behind veiled vowels

assonance is the twin of 
consonance as
         a e i o u
are an
unfinished bridge
without connection
of consonants
weaved together
in visible
unspoken actions
woven without words
just like rhythmic meter 
of thunder with lightning

like a lost refrain in a poem
assembled with enjambment 
metaphorical reflections of a
reflective metaphor portray a
m i r a g e less sincere than silence

value blossoms
when the body adopts
a gospel language
where speech
is unnecessary
unless expressed
through true
dialects of conduct
without the use of
lyrical accessories.

Faithful Lyrical Voyage

Faith directs our steps,
While we go into the deep darkness where doubts could lurk.
A lighthouse shining through the darkest nights,
An energy source for our hearts' delights.

When problems arise, a soothing voice says, 
"Believe in dreams; they come true."
It extends its grace with open arms,
And gives us the courage to find our niche.

Faith breathes the gift of life into us,
During times of struggle and leaps of hope.
It uses vivid colors to portray the sky,
An unseen story tapestry.

Let faith be our everlasting symbol, 
And let our hearts align like the stars they are.
Faith guides us to the light of God 
Through difficulties endured and distance traveled.

with its wax and wane cycle

Lyrical Sea

These words swim inside my head
Submerged in thought
Emotions flow
Like waves, one after the other
Should I capture them in a bottle
Or release them
Lost in the caves of consideration
As I drift off into oblivion
Confined in my lyrical sea

Lyrical Ways

I have strategies
in my soul and
I'm ready
to enter the
scene...

these 
procedures
taught me the nature...
and the elements:

The rain taught me the
wet kiss...

the wind taught me the
softly hugging...

the sun taught how
 to warm hearts...

Lyrical Love

Country not so much. 
But I appreciate it still.
Rock & Roll will never die.
It has big shoes to fill.

Hip hop comes with energy.
Makes me want to dance.
I listen to music every time,
I get the chance.

If I make sense of the words,
The lyrics I can get.
I also download Rap songs,
with stories I don't want to forget.

Metal music is pure power.
Some lyrics full of rage.
But they put on an epic show,
when they are on that stage.

Such emotion poured into
every word of my favorite songs.
If I had to live without music.
I wouldn't live for long.

I don't just listen to the sound.
The lyrics are really what I see.
I know the words to every song,
if it made an impression on me.

Music makes me think,
Music makes me feel.
Music is the only thing,
that helps my pain to heal.

To each and every performer.
Thank you for your words and sound.
I always buy pit tickets.
When my favorite artists come to town.

Premium Member Lyrical Solace

Tonight I just need to hear those words; 
Please calm me with your lyrical 
arrangement that provides me solace; 

A beautiful rhythm brings solace 
within the tone you give your words; 
Such an artist each phrase so lyrical; 

Punctuated with a smile that’s lyrical 
radiating sunshine and solace; 
Whimsical warm composure of words; 

Your words are my lyrical solace.
