The autumn day is beautiful and sweet,
and the sounds of nature ring loud and sharp;
I stand listening to a lone bird song.
His tweets, chirps and twirls an echoing song,
I am in awe of his melody sweet;
and then, the wind answers in whispers sharp.
Somewhere, a tree branch breaks with a crack sharp,
disturbing tranquility of this song;
I love nature and the hidden sounds sweet.
Let this sweet, sharp, song ever drift and float.
golden dawn spans bright
larks soar up high with sweet songs~
spirit of the air
larks fly in high skies
yet build their nests on low grounds~
lesson of meekness.
Inspired by a scene from a movie.
I've loved you forever

I've loved you forever
Even before we met
There was the promise of you
An energy and intention
The Universe
Conspired to make you mine
Fate and Destiny
Serendipity entwined
The Angels knew
Walking beside our hearts
Showed our souls
We could never be apart
Throughout the eons
Throughout our lifetimes
We met again and again
Getting our story right
This is the one
Where it all goes right for us
You and me, baby
We're echoing in the dust
Starlight and Stardust
Forever changed through time
Our atoms are incredible
Magic and mystery aligned
Oh, I've loved you, darling
My sweetheart and my muse
I'll love you forevermore
Our hearts beat together in truth

Welcome Lord Jesus for being my best friend
Trusting in you Yeshua is easy
I Love you JayBird like today is so great
Yeshua I love Her still even though her and are oceans apart
from a different world oceans apart in many ways
Thank you Jesus for creating my family and friends
Thank you Lord Jesus for all this world you have made
I feel sad for all the lost cause I was lost most of my life
Baptized as a baby perhaps I was never lost just confused
Yeshua Please pray for my brother Danny he has lots of demons always attacking him
Please Lord let us all know your love
Agape Love for all creation bless Israel ben david for he needs you
Do not forget Israel your land
Also Bless Czechia and Ireland and America and Iran and Lebanon and syria
bless the people of the world who are harmed by rulers and priciplalites
I know I am not perfect and JayBird I care about them all
Bless especially those I love and God you know me I love all your creation
even if they may be in rebelion I pray they repent and turn to You Yah for You alone are Lord Yeshua
The timeless, touchless song of you
this melody and flowing that you are
comes everytime I reach to catch
the strains of love, and see you opening up
blossomsweet
flowerbright
lilypure
in the light and release you find
as slowly you yield yourself
completely to the love and freedom waiting
in the heart of God for you
and in your own precious self;
and here's the reward that's given to me:
like Auden in his journey toward Atlantis,
to be grateful even to glimpse you in a poetic vision
because you, darling soul, are the gift
waiting to be opened by the fingers
of quickening time, only to reveal the beauty you've always promised
in smiles and sighs and virgin hope, and every way you touch the heart.
No wonder the morning and all of us so completely, deeply, and happily love you.

About you I was wrong
Instead of a sweet song
~ You gave me the gong
As I appear today
don't know if Summerland is far away!
Would you regret to stay...
and ease a lonely man's pain?
Is love to feel this way?
Then I am not the same
Let not my heart to stray
and leave this beautiful game!
But if I said too much
beg you forgive my touch
Let us sing our days away!
As I appear today
don't know if Summerland is far away!
Would you regret to stay...
and ease a lonely man's pain?
But if I said too much
beg you forgive my touch
Let us sing our days away!
Even if loving you were deemed offence,
Then let me forever rot in a jail.
In your love’s ocean, far my heart will sail,
And there I will scale any mighty fence.
At that time, nothing again will make sense;
So long as your love remains without fail,
And you ensure that true love will prevail,
Only then will our deep amour commence.
So long as what you return is true love,
I'll brave the darkest seas and still sray strong.
My love will sing aloud your sweetest song,
Then over all things you shall rise above.
All others for your sake I will forsake;
I just hope loving you won’t turn out wrong!
Whispers the sandman
sleep is nigh
Tuck away your day
one last kiss, then bye
Dim the lights
breathe a deep sigh
Now let me sing you
a soft lullaby
If I could write a story song
Our loves’ beginning, told in time
In beautiful, eventful words
Perhaps a Sonnet of a rhyme
If I could write of younger days
Of unexpected rendezvous
Of fate’s design or destiny
I’d write of how I first met you
There’d be no Taxis, Chances Are
No Auld Lang Synes, no Lyin’ Eyes
There only would be tears of joy
For having lived love’s sweet surprise
If I could write a story song
Then every word could fill a page
For love needs only thought to live
And thought defies all time and age
And so my story would portray
The fortune of love’s wondrous gift
Of one remembered summer night
Of wandered hearts, no more to drift
Fly in Haiku's wings
Drink the past's nectar sweet
Lisping songs it bring.
As a baby we love hearing a sweet lullaby song,
as teens along comes rock n roll with a gong.
As I did mature,
my music went on a grand tour.
Loving to dance all night doing the waltz,
then a bubble bath with lavender salts.
When down and out,
the old blues lets me breakout.
"life is a song" to be sung,
just open your mouth and wiggle your tongue.
Beautiful lady,
Youre lovely and unique,
Like Beauty,
Like Beauty,
that you seek,
In Nature,
In jazz cafes,
Upon palm kissed shores,
Beautiful lady,
Youre lovely and unique,
Like Beauty,
Like Beauty,
That you seek,
Gazing at the waves,
At the lavendar sunsets,
At evenings roses,
and midnight moons,
Beautiful lady,
Your love,
Grows sweet,
In the gardens,
In the vineyards,
In the moonlight,
Beautiful lady,
Your Beauty,
Lovely and unique,
Caresses sweet,
Within your soul,
Within the starry nights
Reynaldo Casison
Robin

Tonight I saw a robin
Sitting in a tree
Singing his heart out
Sharing his feelings
Totally entranced
I listened to him
He was so cheerful
Delighting in his freedom
Such a beautiful robin
Singing his song
It's the best way
To end the day gone
Nature's perfection
Each day for us to find
Thank you dearest robin
For your blessing sublime

She wears her clothes awful tight
the boys look with pure delight
She's petite and very sweet
she's the girl you got to meet
Sweet Thing...Kiss me
Sweet thing you talk too much
Sweet thing a little out of touch
Sweet thing making me think such and such
Sweet thing...Kiss me
The way she walks the way she talks
The way she wiles with that smile
The way she looks got me hook
The way she moves she got the groves
Sweet thing...Kiss me
She's nobody's fool, got her rules
She plays it cool, got you schooled
Baby baby such a tease
Sweet thing...Please Please Please
Sweet thing you talk too much
Sweet thing a little out of touch
Sweet thing make me think such and such
Sweet thing...Kiss me
