The santa's bringing me some candies and cake,
I'll eat candies and cake without mistake!
The santa's bringing me some candies and cake,
I'll eat candies and cake without mistake!
The santa's flying through the snow in his sleigh,
And he sees me there and says "hey".
I asked him can I fly with him in the air
He said yes with all respect and care.
The santa's bringing me some candies and cake,
I'll eat candies and cake without mistake!
The santa's bringing me some candies and cake,
I'll eat candies and cake without mistake!
While playing with his white beard and hair
I flew with Santa in the air
The Santa gave me cake and toy
And said me to be a good boy
The santa's bringing me some candies and cake,
I'll eat candies and cake without mistake!
The santa's bringing me some candies and cake,
I'll eat candies and cake without mistake!

POEM " FROM DUST TO DIAMOND " by martin gedge
With Heart and soul insight a goal a rookie breaking camp
of brawn and steel and sex appeal a chance to light the lamp
so hard and tough and rough enough will separate the few
for the fire inside will often ride the pride that's drives you through
to swing and swerve of every curve you reach the dusty plate
with eyes in tune they will balloon at a fast alarming rate
so you must choose in seconds flat when bat will meet the ball
with every base that you will chase leads to a curtain call
and win or lose the cheers and boos you never get undone
so loud and proud the waving crowd each time you score a run
will have your back each time you crack a shot beyond the fence
for stars ignite into the night in light of heaven sense
and over time and dollar sign will press upon your grit
the golden glove will rise above the chew and all the spit
what's true in heart you are apart the fortune and the fame
but never let or to forget the love to play the game
with all respect as fans select a hall into the shrine
you shake the dust and all the rust and let your diamond shine...

To the Lord I cast my net
I pray he will not forget
To protect or check on the things
I may be unwilling to accept
I hope he will direct and teach me
How to connect with all things, I have chosen to neglect
With all respect, Lord I am here to collect and learn
How to reflect on the people I disrespect
Because I was greedy and upset.

I once met a drunken man there
Under the shade of the calabash tree
With a gourd of wine downed to the lees.
He said to me when I came up:
See, see my friend, I tell you
From that yonder village I come
I observe there are just two cowards living.
The first is so peaceful he avoids
A fight with the evils that go on
And so evil took over the land
With no resistance and exiled him from home.
The second very aggressive, I tell you
Fights the helpless and common man
And fears the powerful
Who subjects and exploits him.
And I asked him which he prefers.
None, none, he said and hiccupped
Holding up his wine gourd.
I am so disappointed with these things
So I take four quarts each day
To be mindless of it all.
Then sir, I said, with all respect
You observed two cowards
But I surely have met a third coward!

Henna tree is still in a long thirsty.

I hear your invocations,
I saw it falling from the sky.

To death.
To heaven.

With all respect to the Beatles classic, behold my Bardish version of 'Yellow Submarine'
O’er the hill whence yelped was I
bode a fellow flote for gain
mark’d we of discourses thence
yonder country of sunken ships
Put to sea beyond yon sun
happenstanced ‘pon waters green
stayed for ’ere neath briny there
within ochre sunken ship
Refrain :
Bide we all neath yon ochre sunken ship
ochre sunken ship, ochre sunken ship
bide we all neath yon ochre sunken ship
ochre sunken ship, ochre sunken ship
‘ere beside stay’d inwards all
and more company ne’er afar
‘ere the Minstrels playeth on
within ochre sunken ship
repeat refrain to fade ...

A LIFE SO TIDE
OF A WORRIED HEART
SHOULD MY LIFE BE A FAIRYTALE
I SPOKEN HIS DREAM WAS FRAUGHT
WAKING UP TO HIS WILDERNESS DREAM
WHAT I HAVE BEEN TO HIM,
HIS TAUGHT NOT SEEN OF ME
WITH HIS WONDERING EYE,
LEFT MY HEART ALONE
FOR HIS THOUGHTS,
I WOULD NOT CONSIDERED
UNTIL TIME PAST,
AND HOPE FOR THE LAST,
MY LONELY WORLD REST IN HATH
WITH ALL RESPECT THAT PASSED BY
I CARE NOT TO PERISH IN HIS THOUGHTS

I heard a subtle sound from outer stairs
That interrupted peacefulness in house.
I asked myself, what was that noise my ears
Have hearkened to, perhaps it was a mouse?
Although my curiosity aroused
My cautiousness in check I ventured from
My study most perplexed, and than I paused
Because my heart was beating like a drum.
Anticipating what I feared the least
A mouse was not the cause of noise I heard
Nor any grievous, carnivorous beast
Not even Allen Poe’s foreboding bird.
I played a joke on you with all respect
Now the question: what thought you the culprit?
