On Greek Stage Renaissance
What do I wish for my wild heart?
In this trail is the finest art.
That is why I am almost there
With Lydian lyre and lore, or more
Cher sings her effectuated soul,
Discerning hearts excite the whole.

In Commissioning Frescoes for His Library, a Renaissance Churchman Drives a Hard Bargain
The Cardinal requires Ser Bernardino,
as high contracting party to the tasks,
to paint ten histories in damasceno,
in gold, vermilion: also asks
that other pleasing colours be employed,
the whole to be so handsome, beautiful
and lively, as will fill the present void
with fantasies. He should be dutiful
and diligent, and supervise the

Renaissance Man
He was a servant's son, young and proud
But expressed his opinions out loud
By the will of the King
He braved the guillotine
So now he heads off into the crowd

And yet I did not ask for it
I even gave it up
To this first love
To this unforgettable love

Renaissance Architecture
I've done bad, I'm full of guilt.
I deserve punishment to the hilt.
You've every reason - sure, you've got 'em.
So, whack me soundly on my bottom,
but please, oh please, don't give me a lecture
on Renaissance architecture.

Rainy Renaissance
I go to the fair
and I see many crafts
My brother didn't really care
It started to rain I thought we needed rafts
Then came the thunder
And the women in dresses
started to shudder
everyone (finally) restless
(Well everyone but me)
I take off my shoes
All the women procrastinating
And I played in the puddles like I had nothing

Our Renaissance
His affections past and present left such an impression.
After the first fated losses, I knew I needed him again.
I reached out to him so our renaissance can help me carry on.

Love Needs A Renaissance
How did we get here you ask, well...
Daddy used to preach look both ways before you cross the street
Because history is known to spend the block
And after I watched Jerome get shot in the daytime while kids were playing, Mrs. Johnson was gardening, and my two friends were sitting with me yelling to the

Renaissance
Metro Cardigan
with a slim fit.
Be in your thinking mature.
Hero of the day.
Atlantic Starr
Moving steadily besides the still waters.
May goodness follow me.
Ensemble Cymbalta.
Skyscrapers on top of cloud atlas,
Vanilla sky fools delight of a purple sky.
Rotating around the earth's axis.
Now let's end it on a good good note.

renaissance-LIGHTS
Temperate challenges core valued
Sparks flames of light
Brightly springs forth sunbeams de blooms
Raging sparks of light surface sparks spikes
Of brilliant shines so, renaissance
Heart harden is set like stone
Amongst the diamonds alone

Renaissance Fair Turkey Legs
Kansas City’s Renaissance Fair is fun; you can dress steampunk
Go as Peter Pan, Alice in Wonderland, or a Victorian Queen.
You can be a knight of the Round Table or King Arthur
It is embraced by several factions of people in Kansas City
Each year it gets bigger and more outrageously fun than the year before
The only thing

Renaissance
Tender are the hearts that flows
beating vibrantly the love that flows
through the Soul's
heart resonates mirror images
seen through the eyes the glass is clear
to see inside the soul so in everyday and in every way
I have substance to say, as I pray
I relinquish myself and embrace the blessings
