Nothing like the spirit of youth
  Determined to get at the truth
So headstrong to right every wrong
  Into the world they charge headlong...

Who is the Boss - Same old song?

I'll yield since you're very headstrong

        It'll be quite a blow

        But just so you know

It'll end in us both being wrong!...

Standing strong,
All day Long,
Staying headstrong,
Playing along.
Finding where you belong,
Creating a theme song,
Singing all day long,
Standing strong,
Right where you belong....

Hazy headstrong Henry hesitated to hide his hilarity
Hindering his healthy hopeful humanitarian habits
Helping to enhance Harry Hippo who hastened
Heartfelt harmony hearing headstrong Henry...

The words come as brothers,
  their sister a song

With mother a feeling,
  and father headstrong

Relation internal,
  all melding as one

Each needing the other,
 —a lyrical sum

The duck plunged under water
but unable to endure
the headstrong falcon followed him
beneath the meekly sewer

While falcon’s feathers all were soaked
Duck rose in the air
and mocked the bird of prey
who was drowning there....

Cowardess
                 Closed Eyes
          Hidding Behind Masks
         Fears Enclose the Mind
Make You Believe Almost Anything
         Face Your Darkest Fears
               Open Your Eyes
           Staying Headstrong
                     Bravery...

Do Not Turn
Away from me now
When love is new and thrilling.
Nevermore, passion's flame flares untamed--
Hearts blindly lead the willing
Journey--unsurpassed.
CAUTION burns!

Plain 
Child 
Headstrong
Great talent 
In art and music 
Has keen intelligence, vivid imagination 
Orphaned in childhood; forced to reside with her aunt Reed 
Who abused and spurned her. She eventually became a teacher, then a governess

Torpid fields of woe
A voice drones like an endless day
What have you come here to mourn ?
Unwrap your plans
Swirl like mirth
Between sunsets and Waterfalls
journeying headstrong
through gateways swirl 
as your pulse surges
To touch the earth
feel the birth
of an untouched mile...

Mulish pic-headed Lex was headstrong
Could never admit a mistake or being any way wrong
Opinionated, stubborn, and inflexible too
We set him up with our mean unbending Auntie Lulu.
She cast a spell, and turned nasty Lex immediately around.
A more compliant, agreeable man, cannot now be found....

The pavement is her catwalk
She is headstrong and proud
A beauty who demands attention
And turns heads in  a crowd.

Dressed to kill 
And  sure to thrill
An exhibitionist
Struts her stuff
In alluring attire
That says
You can look but you can't touch.

Green scissors that never cut a thing,
seen always as outside of the box;
Gene gave me this vivacious vision 
keen to lean towards unorthodox;

Wrong side of the road is where I live,
along with others who share my smile;
Headstrong creatives we’re colorful;
Lifelong punch of the tenth percentile....

You can’t admit wrong 
And always blame me
Act as though strong 
when clearly weak 
Rage and shout 
childishly
Create the scenes 
disrupt the peace 
Paranoid 
think you’re headstrong 
Easily annoyed 
turn red and strop 
No one can tell you you’re the problem 
You’re emotional hell that doesn’t stop...

I am today, what yesterday wrought
what the day brings in, what my soul has bought
the spirit that leaves as the day grows strong
what's left in shadows from yesterday's song

I am right now, what tomorrow brings
without the luster, without the dreams
headstrong tolerance, disposition wasted 
from bittersweet memories that I once tasted...

Draft thee, Oh fated courage read as go
that headstrong empathy must not confound
wait out the dormancy's entail, be slow
as cold the Winter's stalling, ounce by ounce!

That silent purge so white the fields of snow
as underneath man knows the ground's extent
the seasons bustle, advocate not stow
cold thrives on nature's retrogressed relent!...

Did forever simply feel like too long?
In your heart, was there a fleeting song?
Visions of doubt, felt so very wrong!
Over, she said – it’s over and you’re not strong.
Reflecting on your marriage, can’t we just get along?
Could you have been different, kinder, not so headstrong?
When you see her there – it is where you feel like you belong!

There is hope for humanity;
we need to learn to get along
and move past the insanity
of doing what we know is wrong.
We left our caves;
then enchained slaves.

Our fate's fueled by vanity;
argumentative and headstrong
we're stewards of profanity
and can't tolerate trust for long.
It all sounds strange;
but we can change....

Under the hot lights I roam
Defined by forming instincts
The pursuit of avalanche grows
Wayward through each fountain head

Every hand in making memory its guise
When full tooth explosions hit stone
And escape serpentine rhythm 

Laughing ruthlessly upon city towers
The house and headstrong mistress
Killing movement with skill
Leaving red murmurs crawling...

The person in question
  not yet man
  no longer boy
  strong, but quite shy
    poised on the precipice
    of destiny

A river had caught him unawares
  he with half a paddle
  head full of hope
  belly knotted in fear
    watching deep waters rush along
    now unsure; then headstrong

To cross it he must
A crisis of trust
Midst the Wind's cruel gusts...
