Run Girl Run
Run, Girl, Run
She was just eleven, small and spry,
Her father said, “You’re due, oh my…”
A spanking, harsh, the kind she knew,
But this time she thought, “Not today, not you.”
He called her brothers, big and loud,
“Go catch your sister—make me proud!”
She took off running, barefoot and wild,
With twenty meters head start, a desperate child.
The boys gave

The Moon Shone Brightly - Potd
Lilac lavender leaves fluttered ethereally
over the smooth sea of the placid lake.
A shimmer of light shone over the calm waves,
as they rolled silently and collectively
towards the sandy shore now lit
by the rising of the amber full moon.
Wave after wave composed
a lyrical enchanting melody
played by the rising orb.
The leaves formed fragrant shapes
emulating the grandness of

Way To Success God Had Shone
Way To Success God Had Shone
Instead of being bare to the bone,
And also by myself and left alone;
Bothered being;
Not worth seeing;
Wish way to success God had shone.

A Star Shone Bright
A star shone bright in Eastern sky
two thousand years ago
as angels sang their hymns on high
to let the whole world know.
They sang their praise, their greeting bring
as bells in heaven start to ring
They sang their praise…

Now Heaven Shone
At eighteen,
I thought that I could write my way to heaven
I’d waltz right in, announce my name, and sit
down on its throne
At twenty-five,
I sat in jail to rot in isolation
my freedom gone, my will deformed,
but worst of all alone
At thirty-five,

Sunshine Shone On Masseurs
Cage the rage you envisage
At the slightest intervention
Your mood swing fails to assuage
When folly in full bloom springs into action
To boost the small ego that looms large
In response to the uncontrolled wrath
Your short fuse unleashes in a rage
Whose momentum galumphs onto the path
Littered with glass shards
Reaped from bad blood to your head
Reeled off when

The Heavens Cheerfully Shone
The heavens cheerfully shone
As the sea was completely torn
Love was perfectly shown
But dreamers have sadly gone
Only the surface has been known

The Light Still Shone In Her Eyes
I lie back and think of her
Wishing my days were younger still
And the light that shone
In her eyes still did so for me
Do you think of her decision
That she made to go when
You wanted her to stay forever
The years have passed slowly
But I remember her still
And the way she looked
At me when the

The Day the Sun Shone
It was one of those days
Summery haze
Little girls and boys out to play
It was the day the sun shone
It was one of those days
Lovers gaze
All the grown ups smiling
It was the day the sun shone
It was one of those days
Bluebells and Waves
Shining glory
It was the day the sun shone
It was just one of those lazy

Suddenly the Light Shone
Awoke by the coldness of the night
there it is nothing to be seen
you are alone in a rescue life boat
temperatures falling cold’s really keen
Can’t remember much how it happened
the cruise ship must have became a wreck
thankfully at least I am still alive
nothing more to do but look for a speck
It must be night as it’s

The Stars Have Shone, From Times Beginning
Sheathed in holsters from fire to ice,
holding burning through the freezing oceans,
and freezing through the blazing skies.
The pain I have felt, from these scars,
these past horrors, from the beginning
these are my stars,
my freezing oceans and burning skies,
and I let them shine with you,
I let them shine with

All of My Prayers Have Shone True
Blissful light, truest love,
fiery warmth all stemming
from the healing, I get from you.
Ripping lies, tripping highs, missing ties,
these are here to give me truth peace
and closing my loose ends,
my loose ends all tied up in one loop,
locking back up, turning to,
and starting each day with you.
Call
