Captain Miller : The First Black Tiger

In the shadowed dawn of distant days,
Where echoes whispered of lost ways,
There stood a name, etched deep in lore,
Captain Miller, amidst the roar.

A soldier forged from fire and flame,
Bound to cause, beyond mere name,
With eyes that held grief and pride,
For lands and lives, for those who died.

Steel and sorrow marked his path,
Through broken fields, through

Premium MemberMessy Miller Mania

Righteous cleaning crusade clashes,
Make sure that your mania matches.
All must serve at our behest!
In this unbound purging quest.

Others' motives be assumed,
Adverse dispositions doomed.
Blame, demands, uncaring halts,
Justified by end results.

Premium MemberLittle Mary Miller

One sunny day little Mary Miller
Picked up a mottled green caterpillar,
Which became a monster moth. 
One fine morn her dad grew wroth:
Her moth laid eggs in his denture filler.

Premium MemberGlenn Miller and Tommy Dorsey

Was just a young'un in the big band era
But it seems just like yesterday
Listening to Glenn Miller and Tommy Dorsey
Still love it right to this day

Miller's Modernaires, and Dorsey's Pied Pipers
With their smooth harmonic blend
Chattanooga Choo-Choo and The Trolley Song
Brought me so much pleasure no end

Guess I was influenced by my older sisters
Was not even

Miller Far Thriller and Cellar

That's the trouble with her Miller:
Lots of fancy for fine killer,
Yeah not Real Life - The safe thriller
But it's no Decent Time filler,
Millers remembrance of thriller
The time wise neighbour turns tiller
And one they 've got in James Bila,
In the past fond of Godzilla,
Now in their church a strong pillar...

"Oh! Why had I accepted Miller
For thriller

Premium MemberAn American Thought - Title By Steve Miller

Do you know why we celebrate Memorial Day,
Or are you just glad to have the day off work or school?
Do you think of the soldiers that have passed away
To give you the freedom to drink a beer and play pool?

Memorial Day is a day to remember,
A day set aside to think of our country’s past.
It’s

Premium MemberA Voice No One Heard - Title By Steve Miller

Being your daughter has been an incredible gift.
You and Dad have given me such a wonderful life.
I know that, before me, your lives seemed to be adrift,
But, because of you, I am a mother and a wife.

You both raised me with nothing but happiness and love
And now I get to pass on that warmth to

Premium MemberI've Lived My Entire Life In the Dark - Title By Steve Miller

I’ve lived my entire life in the dark
Never knowing what was around the bend.
My future would always seem pretty stark.
I never knew on whom I could depend.

My life was very different from yours,
That I can absolutely guarantee.
I never saw anything but closed doors.
But please don’t ever take pity on me.

Early on, I would try to

Premium MemberFor Someone Else, Not Me - Title By Steve Miller

Your hair moves in the wind like the ocean waves.
Your eyes sparkle like two shining stars in the sky.
Your smile can light up the deepest, darkest caves.
Your voice can comfort a baby who wants to cry.

These are a few of the things that I think about,
When sitting alone in the dark and quiet night.
You’ll be

Premium MemberThe Void You Leave Behind Will Become My Constant Companion - Title By Steve Miller

You’re always my first thought when I wake up each day,
Whether times are rough, or they seem like paradise.
When I need it most, you always know what to say
And you always bless me with wonderful advice.

But, I don’t know what I will do after you’re gone.
That first day will be different from the others.
Just know

Premium MemberThe Circle of Life: Looking For Answers - Title By Steve Miller

I still don't fully understand why I'm even here.
I haven't found that "purpose" that others talk about.
I analyze my life at the end of every year,
Only to discover another year of mental drought.

I live my life day after day and week after week,
Waiting for a sign to tell me that what I do is right.
All

Premium MemberThe Darkness Of Tragedy Came With A Gift - Title By Steve Miller - Version 2 Ending

From the very beginning, I knew it was you.
I knew that it was you whom I'd been waiting for.
You stole my heart, and there was nothing I could do.
You, forever, changed my life and opened other doors.

I never dreamed that I could love someone so much.
I never dreamed that, deep down, I could feel this

Premium MemberThe Day I Found Myself - Title By Steve Miller

The beauty around me is so hard to explain,
With the endless fields of snow and high snowy peaks.
How could emotions of the artist have been contained
While creating all of this in less than a week?

My emotions change constantly as I ponder
About what kind of patience it takes to create
Such a place that makes one’s mind

Premium MemberInspiration - Title By Steve Miller

Watching you, I learned what it meant to really teach,
And I loved your class with all of my heart.
You showed me that all of my goals are within my reach.
In my everyday life, you still play a small part.

I think of you often, and of the things that you taught me.
It’s hard to believe that
