Lost to the Theory

You and I seemed a sure thing,
we’d been strong seven years,
had man more up than downs,
nothing wrong, it appeared.
But then you started changing,
talking empowerment,
calling our home a prison,
our kids a detriment.
Saying that a ‘strong woman,’
has no need of a man,
somehow we who loved you most
didn’t fit with your plans.

Do you know
our kids will never forgive

Melodic harmony

Georgia gentle on my mind
Willie took us on the journey home

A Duckie Song

Waddle with me in a downpour of rain
Singing in a symphonious refrain
Jumping in puddles, splashing everyone 
Simply because we will have lots of fun.

We'll fluff up our feathers, inhale fresh air
Twist and shake until we have no breath there
Because we are smarties, we have it cracked 
And expertly do a duckie class act.

One two and

I heard a song

I thought of you today when I heard a song – 
A pop star using “ima” like you used to do.
The memories flooding my mind were strong,

Despite it all I put on a smile and sang along.
Reminders of correcting your English for you.
I thought of you today when I heard a song.

A rap star’s lyrics

Bipolar Love

She says I’m so fun,
then claims that we’re done,
she says she hates me,
then wants my babies.
first she wants her man,
then says, “Go use your hand.”
She stares at my eves,
then says I’m full of lies.

The aggravation…
the resignation…
I think I’ve had enough
of her bipolar love.
Bipolar love.

She dreams of houses,
then only grouses,
wants to show me off,
then snaps, “Just

Sun and Storm Song

Triptych 8-20-25 Sponsor: John Anderson
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
sun and storm song

eerie storm warning
light swallowed by ebony
banshee ballads rise
in mantras of humid breaths
atonal whirlwinds unleashed

downbeats of thunder
lightning rakes holes in the sky
tempest dirge rumbles
curtains of raindrops descend
plainchants of torrential rain 

sun and storm collide
colors rise from light and mist
drenched in neon tears
sunbows arch in harmonies
orchestration of rainbows

Where Have All the Birds Gone

Some say the summer sun,
drove them to the jagged peaks,
where they pressed their feet in snow,
and froze, defeated, swallowed by silence.

Empty skies above,
Hollow fields below—
Who will recall their vanished songs?
Who will cradle their echoes?

Others recall their beaks filled,
with plastics from tainted fields,
like cacti bristling through sand
choking the voices that once soured.

Some saw a trembling mirage.
A

Half Baked Sinner

Well, my momma -bless her soul - she brought me up good.
She taught me all she knew and she taught me what she should,
She took me to a church and she made me knock on wood.
Still, Honey, I’m a half-baked sinner.

‘Cause I’m sittin’ here and thinkin’ that you’re look’in mighty fine.
You set my heart to

Poem is Like Music

Each word a note, a quiet song,
lines rise and fall where hearts belong.
Pauses hum as loudly as the sound,
meaning dances, turning all around.
Rhythm threads through every heartbeat
and soul and melody at last meet.

Hug the Bard Song

I wasn't truly attuned to the Bard
Who tried to show cosmic significance.
On the dark moonlit forest's stage, he starred.
His Bardic thoughts defying arrogance.

I met the night Bard while he was singing
In chorus with Oaks of the magic grove.
Sprouting with seedlings was his beginning.
Raised in the forest, his true treasure trove.

This bounty lies protected by wet

Song of a Night Bird

When sleep deserted me,
      I crawled out of my bed unseen
to delve into the crevices of the dark
with the curiosity of an explorer
    and the near comatose of a somnambulist.
I walked up and down the steep slopes of the night,
    like a night watchman,

Damn Red Cooper

Damn Red Cooper is a son of a ,
fast with a gun, trigger finger will itch,
all the folks say that he’s killed twenty men,
now he’s saying that I’ll be one of them.
Damn Red Cooper had his eye on a girl,
worked the cathouse, liked to give her a twirl,
now mad as hell that she done left

Life is war new song version

Life is war

Life is war....
we go to battle every single day,
feeling more and more like castaways,
in this ever churning sea


Oh, oh, life is war....
with each new day bringing calamity,
this world keeps messing with our sanity
till we can't take anymore


Chorus
But...love soldiers on...
together we are strong...
each battle we have won...
our love goes on and on...
Love soldiers on.


Life

Alta

When I walked in the room,
I saw no sign of you,
your shoes or your jacket new,
even your car was gone.
Called up all of our friends,
knew nothing on their ends,
no message did you send,
or note that said ‘so long.’
Called police panicking,
three days ’till your missing,
they got you on the first ring,
but would not speak to me.
Now

The Grace Of True Grace

The blessings of grace come down
to bring change deep within
so not to be what I once was
in God's grace, Christ has come in

Dimly it's hard to recollect
but to be clear on Christ alone
a great sinner am I, but praise God
my sins, my saviour did atone

God pours out His loving kindness
showing His pleasure to HIs own
for
