plays a sad tune underneath a
watery moon or

Was in a canoe when it sank,
Her fur and diamonds got lost
In the watery impost,
As she dog-paddled her way to the bank.

Oh my gosh!
Utter bosh...
Waves swash,
Watery slosh,
Simply awash,

Don't josh!

Premium Member Life Goes On

Something must die
So we can live.
Weither from the sky,
Or the ground,
Or from a watery place.
From a field,
From a tree,
Something must die
For you and me.

The normal

Will the sane

of feverish faces
watery flames

the mangled

those are new casualties
but
not the only casualties
in old towns

Do Be Buried At a Deep Depth

Do Be Buried At A Deep Depth

What they would hear before death, 
There will be one last dying breath,
And each wave,
Over watery grave
Do have me buried at a deep depth.

Sugar Cane Fields

Sweet sugar cane,
So sweet and juicy
Well, it just makes
Your mouth,
So watery, inside
Harvest bounty from 
The Savannah fields
Sweet sap running
Down their long 
Slender green spines

Complete Again

To wander through  Yorkshire dales
Or wend in watery wooded Wales
Lean into wind of  lowland moors
Or eagle watch on Highland tors
To find my selves again agrin 
In druid sweet perfection fin
