Looking down from somewhere up in the sky.
Mickey Mantle and Duke Snider stand by.
Below, Bronx Bombers, all in their pinstripes,
come out swinging their bats, taking their swipes.
Dem Bums have Shohei Ohtani and Betts.
Get ready, this is as good as it gets.
"Play ball", says the ump, to a lightning flash.
Big bats heard o'er the land, a thunder crash.
It starts raining as, out of the park, it flies.
Is it Mantle or Snider who cries?

I stand by my love forever
In stormy and gloomy weather
I shall be your navigator
In times of persecution and betrayal
I shall be the even handed judge
When vicissitudes of life
Strike and destabilise your emotions
I shall be the shoulder you cry on
When providence knocks and lifts you up
I shall be that smile of gratitude
That will dissipate years of
Anxiety and tribulations
I stand by my love forever

When you thought you were alone,
In the middle of the storm,
My child, you should have known,
When the coldest wind has blown,
I was there and kept you warm.
Through the mountains, through the valleys,
I hid you out of all the harm,
When you searched for worldly rallies,
I led you towards meadows and green alleys,
I carried you on my strong arm.
When you were about to fall,
When you needed hugs and love,
When you felt so weak and small,
without friends around to call,
I was watching over from above.
I will always stand by you,
I'm your Father, I won't let go,
Every day I'll help you through,
Soon, with Me, you'll start anew,
In the eternal bright, white glow.

Beloved, we stand by Valentine's shores,
we are as gentle as a turtle dove,
our dreams ever open up Heaven’s doors.
Together we do share a precious love,
as we both do lie by the starlight stream,
our love does raise us to Heaven above.
We shall ever lie beneath starlight gleam,
where our hearts shall take flight and peaceful soar,
we ever find ourselves in starlight dream.
We shall ever stand by Valentine's shore,
as we stand together in the divine,
you shall ever be the one I adore.
Divinity sings as Luna does shine,
You are now my eternal Valentine.

On World Autism Day, April 02
He does not know: why the world is unkind,
He's lost somewhere and being left behind,
To his happiness, everyone turns blind;
Complex thoughts arise in his immature mind.
He speaks with discontinuous speech,
At comprehension's threshold which can't reach;
His eyes trying to show a hidden beseech,
A cry: "Help! My Life Is Suffering Breach."
Asks: Is there any room in world for him?
Will you stand by to help him show his vim?
Road to reach Utopian World is long,
Oust his mental weakness to make him strong
So, provide him with his right, don't do wrong,
Ecstasy will spread, he'll sing happy song!

Please stand by for this important announcement
Of news you’ll most assuredly not want to miss
A newsworthy, earth-shaking pronouncement
More startling than your first unexpected kiss.
Your favorite television program is interrupted
Just when you’re about to watch Final Jeopardy,
You’d think the U.S. government was bankrupted
By the sound of the announcer’s anxious perfidy.
Instead, there’s a tennis player who’s deported
From Australia, his name you never heard before
Seems his lack of a vaccine he too openly sported
Forever, hereafter, he’ll never again be obscure.
All you wanted to know was who won Jeopardy
You had waited all day long for today’s show,
For you faithfully watch your program daily
To see the champion trivia winner’s earnings grow.

When the storms of life are raging
stand by me. When all else around me
fails, stand by me. Hold me in Your
loving arms, and keep me safe from
harm. Lord You are my comforter when
I am weary. When the dark clouds seem
to hover up above You light my way. You
help me to make it day by day. When I'm
lost You show me the way. Lord where
would I be if it had not been for You. You
give me hope, and help me through.
When the storms of life is raging You
can calm the stormy seas. Thank You
for standing by me.

I Stand By
The Reason Why
It was not me that made you cry...
As you were the one with a hard head
You the one that always said
That you had made your own bed
And I can go sleep in the shed
So whats the point of my wondering why
If I could even have tried
To change my own pigsty
To one that included you and I
As I'd rather sleep in a shed
Than to share your smelly bed
And for me to wake up every morning
As a pig no longer mourning..
So I stand by
The Reason Why
That you will never make me cry
But what about the piggies that you wanted..
As who looks after the unwanted?

When it's time for my fate
And my beauty fades
Stand by my side
Strong, on my right
Say it will be alright
The dark tunnel has light
When my strength fails
And all my successes rail
Remind me it's real
But it'll all rail
When it's that time,stand by me
And pray it rains
Over the trains
Of my chains
That keep me captive
And my soul adaptive
Faces can be deceptive
So stand by me
But there is no escape
From the bold shape
Into the shade
Of my chains
Still stand by me
I do not question
The reaction,
It's an action.
When it's that time
That my chains gleam,
My faith withers
In that cold weather
My heart yearns
And my soul earns
For you to be there
By my side
When it's that time
GOD stand by me.

I will stand by your side
No matter what we are going through
I'll your friend through thick and thin. I'll be your friend wherever we go you will always know I will be there for you. You don't know how deep my love I for you goes I Won't Give Up on you no matter how times get tough, I hold your hands when times get rough
I'll be your shoulder you can lean on. Just trust in me I will be there. Through thick and thin. I will be there I understand life is not perfect and neither are people.
My love for you is true. We will make it through
I will be there for you, when you need me no distance is too far that you can't reach me. I be there for you. I will be there for you.

Now I walk with you holding your hand
Helping you firmly on your feet to stand
Steer you upon the soft sands of the shore,
Unaware yet what life has for you in store.
Soon you’ll be walking tall with starry eyes
To spread your wings and soar to the skies,
May you dream the fanciest dreams you dare
By your side you will find I am always there.
My son, in this one thing you can be sure
My love for you most surely will endure,
You are born of my love, hope and prayer
You are, oh, the sweet fruit of my labor.
But when I find my day gets weary on its feet
The night stirs up past memories bittersweet,
And when time exacts from me its harsh wage
I wonder will you stand by me in my old age?
As you move ahead in life, this I must say
Be wary, there are also pitfalls on the way,
Always have humility as your guiding light
that you need to follow, keeping faith in sight.
