...Norah Lynn was ten years old, and dreamed of being a ballet dancer;
Like cherry blossoms, fluttering in breeze, whispering with no answer.

She lived with her parents and sister, Phoebe, i...

Those Summer Nights

...You know, I think Norah Jones
might sit on my shoulder sometimes.
The lady with the simplest songs, whispers genie melodies.
and she tunes decisions-                                               ...

Life Study

...norah jones 
writhes and moans
while making love

then quickly dresses
because time presses
there

as mother and wife
where

Simple Simon

...My one true love was Simon,
Simple, they called him,
But one day he went to the faire
And met Norah Pieman.

Oh, that girl was clever
She enticed Simon with her wares
And stole him plum away f...

Hairy Norah the Elephant

...Hairy Nora reads the Torah from daybreak until dusk.
She’s got four different colored legs, but not a single tusk.
There’s a birdie sitting on her back that moves and sways like Elvis,
Her ears ar...

For Norah

...You shiver my ora 
With brightness that skins 
your colors love
Excitement to write and fight
Betrayal and break ups 
I never dream of might
You fiddle and blush my dimples
Shorten my nights

Norah's Song

...I turned your picture to the wall
 Saying I wouldn't need you
It makes no difference to me now
You've ruined me, I took the fall

Saying I wouldn't need you
Was just my way to say goodbye

An Alphabet of Talent

...Fred Astaire was king of tap
Biggie Smalls was huge in rap
Carson (Johnny)ruled TV
Dylan’s songs are poetry
Elvis made the girls all swoon
Frank Sinatra loved to croon
Greta Garbo hid from sight

Christmas Memories

...Vegetarian mom making
Turkey and ham
Trying to please everyone

And veggie burgers
On the “George Foreman” Grill

I Waited For the Sun

...I waited ‘til I saw the sun, 
The sun just slipped a note below my door                                                          
No warm arrival, as before, 
The fragile light of empty air, and c...

Bed

...Bed

Plump down on the bed,
My head, heavier than before,
Follows my body,
Contently onto the bed.

My arms spread like a crucifix,
A groan escapes my lungs,
the blood-red sheets,
crushed on my bed.

With Tears That Fall

...“You may say that I’m a dreamer”,
With such presumption in my youth
Beyond school age, yet hardly saged
I hoped to use my wits to change the world…
I dreamed I would…I dreamed I could…

I decla...

  Held by angels and given wings
  To fly this world ephemeral 
  Every breath a miracle

My Great Escape

...Sittin' here, feelin' uneasy
Not at all sleepy
Sweet sounds of Norah Jones
Tickle my ear drums
I find refuge in the blues
This is not NEWS
to the people who love me
If this is a crime
