Short Big Name Poems

Who is the big winner of the game.
We watch to see who is the big name.
The truth can’t be denied,
that no matter the tide,
the half time commercial gets the fame.

it was a time soul shine
in the getto they would blow
the sounds that still around
some of love
give you a love to think of
some game fame
that has history claim
still a big name
the music still has love tear
those
GOLDEN DOOWOO YEARS...

Please, fancy not stone field:
It assures none crop yield. 
From death won't one shield,
When guns one's killers wield...

Only a big name yield:
"A Landlord" owners wield 
And causeless questions field 
From the press that lands shield!

Then, choose between crop yield 
And mere names that lands wield:
From those of a stone field 
I shan't fail to self shield...

Lockdown
They plan for it
For my own good
Lockdown
Hand on the handle
Key turning
Lockdown
Scent of that woman
“Layla” in my ears
Lockdown
Closing of the door
Such a sad sound
Lockdown
Somewhere between heaven and hell
Knees creaking
Lockdown
Can’t lie
Play the blues for me
Lockdown
Can’t come over
Don’t need a big name
Lockdown
Just play the blues
The thrill isn’t gone...

Stephen

Stephen is my youngest grandson, so far.
Terrific little newborn that sleeps well
Even though he is the youngest, Stephen (III) in the family, he gets the “Big Name”! 
Practically perfect in every way… (As Mary Poppins might say!)  Oh, He is perfect.
He is growing bigger and stronger by leaps and bounds. 
Everyday he brings happiness to the family.
Now, we are watching him grow into his personality.
