difficult to define
she's a one of a kind
beautiful lady
as a matter of fact
her power to attract
makes most men crazy
engaging and alluring
she's anything but boring
she' a one of kind
special lady
that certain something
a perfect mention
that why she's my
special lady
a sense of elegance
a delighting attractive smile
she's a sweet kinda lady
magnetic charm
who's side are you on
step back Mister
that's my Lady
she came with me
she's leaving with me
to you that might sound crazy
she's one of a kind
I was blessed to find
such a magnificent Lady

Music by Musicains
From; "This Time Next Year -Our Anniversary"
Don’t let anyone tell you
they can explain music
Inside the melody
— words fall short
(Dreamsleep: August, 2024)
I don't know what
that means
Science is a tool to skew the world,
in form its weakness shows
To measure, rate, and catalog,
what in essence stays unknown
I’m not against its formulas,
but the philosophy it breeds
Its laws to serve and fertilize
—a deeper planted seed
(Tolentine Hall: February, 2021)
Inferable, unknowable,
all senses on fire
Beyond contradiction,
sans myriad liars
Its vision unstated,
true knowledge unfeigned
Born into our souls
—its silence to reign
(Villanova Pennsylvania: April, 2019)
Can't quite put my finger
on the actual ingredients,
but I know it's you by
the flavorful residue.
Sometimes I cannot
hear everything you say
but I'm in tune with
your mouthful of subtle
affirmations
All of your yeses
has me attentively listening
As if my ears were stethoscopes
and I was prescribed
to give your heart hope.
I listen although
I do not know your definition
I can still use you
in every one of my
sentences
Visually, your framed
as my foundation
for the crown I was
meant to wear
Some call it bling
but I say you've been
roots that lead
to a golden oasis
I akin you to the sun
Your scent rivals
summer flowers
I can close my eyes
and know just where I am
as if the junction between
your thighs were a field of clover
And there was no need
to search further,
but dive right on in
You see I know you
without knowing knowing you
because I am
always dreaming about
the description of you
Described as I am.
you ask what the future will bring -
you ask if you'll find happiness -
you ask where does contentment lie -
you ask who knows these questions asked -
you want the roads end to be seen -
you want the curves of path envisioned -
you want full knowing of in between -
you want to know your human condition -
je ne sais - je ne sais,
is all i can utter in reply
i do not know - i just don't know
we'll get answers maybe by-and-by
we will not treasure lifes' portends
if we know just how the story ends
