It’s as easy as A B C

When I’m struggling to see All the happiness you bring Best harness that energy Then focus it solely on me Let’s see if I can make it easy When you know the notes to sing You can sing most anything It’s like A B C and do re mi Do you get what that means

Radiance ~ #poem

I’ll never tire watching the blooms, or listening to the moon. I’m a constant admirer  inhaling sweet perfumes  while dancing to its tunes. Together they inspire cheerfully brighten my room to chase away gloom and doom.

1 of 250k, again 🌵🌞🌴

Contributing to a multi million dollar event Without any regrets as the line up represents “The Weekend” living smug and content I’ve resigned from pitching, but I’ll spy tents A little less frequent, but up and coming quick As the fans predict with their supportive picks Over 9 days nearly a billion dollars is made

Tool, groove

Do you use Touch ID Fail to look at the people In volatile city streets Who have the courtesy To greet another human being When was the last time You asked yourself Or somebody else for that matter A mad-hatter fact of anticipation For the automatic response Cause you could care not Do you use

Gobble-gobble! 💃🦃

Turn it up ~ 👂🎶🎧 Tanka #Poem

Life is a struggle There will always be trouble Sometimes, it doubles Put your iPod on shuffle Until that noise is muffled

A Familiar Melody – #Tanka

I look and listen For all that I’ve been missing In your attentions That speaks so eloquently and comforts soft parts of me

Happy Mother’s Day

Wishing all of the dedicated mothers and the nurturing women (and men) who help take care of the children and know it takes a village, a peaceful and relaxing day!  

Breathe In Love, Happy V-Day!

Let us give and take Remember, it’s an exchange There’s only one way To love not hate, everyday United we’ll find a way

Merry Christmas

The presents are all wrapped It comes and goes in a flash Freeze it in a frame, so it lasts Remember to enjoy and laugh You can always take stuff back *** Live in the holy spirit of giving Let go of the heavy misgivings Tis the season for love, forgiving Lighten up to joyous beginnings

Gratitude

I’m thankful for each breath that averts death With good health dealt by a spiritual wealth A warm and cozy bed, the roof over my head The Sandman’s conveyances off to dreamland Food that feeds a mouth the words to speak Loud music played easing all troubles away A safe hand to hold as all

Chasing the Dream – Competition/Collaboration

Written by: Kelly Lewis Performed by: John Akers (my nephew & Rock Star) When you can’t wait any longer to figure it out Or for someone else to show you around Cause all you have is right here and now You don’t know how, but make that vow Keep chasing the dream Of who you’re meant to

Our Legacy

Forlorn is the spirit that does not have a home Within a beating heart of another to call its own Seeking permanent shelter the weary soul roams Through emotional turmoil heightened by alone Personal endeavors that drive strangers together Divine powers intercede to raise an eternal dynasty Creating strong family bonds that endure forever Values

Hard Summer

Get out of my way Today is the big party We’re off to a rave It’s gonna be electric, Hot and dubbed up crazy -Tanka

Boom Boom Boom!

Plastic bag clouds float by revealing a clear, bright blue sky. The sun now shines in your eyes lighting up the night. Elevated and accelerated soaring like a bottle rocket; moves so quick one might think I had firecrackers in my pocket. Light the spinning flower to see colors bloom. Have a Happy, Safe and

Sunday Tunage

It’s been awhile since I played Sunday’s Tunage here, and it’s a sunny afternoon with plenty to be thankful for and sing about. Lord, I’ve got to keep on moving Lord, I’ve got to get on down Lord, I’ve got to keep on moving…  

Music

Sounds Move me I play them Repeatedly Creating new and lasting memories To carry me through tragedy and grief Sweet melodies Release my Tensions Free   ~Tetractys   I’d like to thank Mindlovemisery’s Menagerie for introducing this new poetry form through a challenge!  There’s something for everyone, so go visit their site for inspiration.

Sunday Tunage

Have a great week!

Red, Red Wine

Oh how you make me feel fine Relaxed without a single care One could boldly dare, at times  Under burgundy stimulus Floating through the universe It’s hard to control impulses  Wanting to right every wrong Determining best intentions While loudly singing anthem songs Eventually, she will go to sleep Falling silent through the night After

Have You Been to The Neighborhood?

No? Well it’s not too late and now is the perfect time as many talented artists are being showcased together in the Season ending award series. It’s the kind of place where all sorts of talent and magic are performed.   I was lucky and wandered into The Neighborhood in 2014, and then was personally invited

Cosmic Musicology: If You’re Happy And You Know It

Okay it’s been a while since I’ve set it to shuffle and played Cosmic Musicology with Steve and I’m mostly happy, so here we go. What makes me laugh? Heresy, Nine Inch Nails Comments: Never trust “heresy” it’s worse than ASSuming. What makes me cry? Breathe Me, Sia Comments: The lyrics of this tune are submerged

The Wizard

Bright shimmering lights Cast from high in the sky While taking in the sights Guess what it was I spied Without any warning The Wizard walked by It was a great morning I believed I could fly “Never talking Just keeps walking Spreading his magic” Always at my side Bracing my spirit Pushing my strides

Darkness Into Light

The extended version to accompany my earlier post, Candle of Hope.

Undead

White on white translucent black capes Back on the rack Bela lugosi’s dead The bats have left the bell tower The victims have been bled Red velvet lines the black box Bela lugosi’s dead Undead undead undead The virginal brides file past his tomb Strewn with time’s dead flowers Bereft in deathly bloom Alone in
