My Imagination
If I could step from cloud to cloud as they slowly cross the blue sky
If I could be an invisible giant standing up there so high
Sometimes there would be a shower or two for I would surely cry
Looking down below at a world on display
I'm sure I would be amazed
Sometimes it's my imagination that helps me have a wonderful day
There I would be with eagles and see a hawk when it starts to dive
Maybe if I tilt my ear angels I could hear
Sometimes it's my imagination that helps me be alive
I would reach out one hand to the moon
The other towards the sun
No one would see an invisible giant just out having fun
If I could be an invisible giant standing up there so high
Sometimes there would be a shower or two for I would surely cry
Looking down below at a world on display
I'm sure I would be amazed
Sometimes it's my imagination that helps me have a wonderful day
There I would be with eagles and see a hawk when it starts to dive
Maybe if I tilt my ear angels I could hear
Sometimes it's my imagination that helps me be alive
I would reach out one hand to the moon
The other towards the sun
No one would see an invisible giant just out having fun

Post CommentThe Hobby
All the rich men say
I think I'll plow my hobby garden today
Then I'll clean and wax my hobby 57 Chevrolet
We'll drink champagne
And play cards a lot
While out sailing on our hobby yacht
I wouldn't want anyone's feelings to be hurt
So I'll show up to shake hands on Sunday
At my hobby church
Then we'll make reservations at our hobby restaurant
We're so humble and modest
Our hobbies always look so nonchalant
We'll always be know as man and wife
Though we're not married to each other
Cause it's easier to be married to a hobby life

Post CommentSoft And Mellow
When the wind blows again
Yes when the summer wind begins to blow
I will sing a love song for you
Soft and mellow
When the summer sun rises in the early morning skies
And you open up your eyes
And while your head lays gently on your pillow
I'll sing a love song for you soft and mellow
Later on in the day we will steal away
For a walk in the emerald green meadow
Mother nature will hum along I just know
As I sing a love song for you soft and mellow
Yes when the summer wind begins to blow
I will sing a love song for you
Soft and mellow
When the summer sun rises in the early morning skies
And you open up your eyes
And while your head lays gently on your pillow
I'll sing a love song for you soft and mellow
Later on in the day we will steal away
For a walk in the emerald green meadow
Mother nature will hum along I just know
As I sing a love song for you soft and mellow

Post CommentThe Cowboy
My mind is racing my mind is torn
I lie here waiting for the morning sunlight to be my alarm
The firmness of the ground is a cowboy's bed
I pour another cup of coffee my eyes are still red
It's been a few days since I left that town
Wondering if I will ever settle down
But I must be like the roving wind
My destiny might be around another bend
Riden' and ropen'
Driving cattle to and fro
Drifting and dreaming
As the days keep trying to make me old
Get along little doggie going down the chisholm trail
A cowboy is always lonely he never gets any mail
There's a mighty lot of cattle to drive to and fro
Drifting and dreaming as the days keep trying to make me old
I lie here waiting for the morning sunlight to be my alarm
The firmness of the ground is a cowboy's bed
I pour another cup of coffee my eyes are still red
It's been a few days since I left that town
Wondering if I will ever settle down
But I must be like the roving wind
My destiny might be around another bend
Riden' and ropen'
Driving cattle to and fro
Drifting and dreaming
As the days keep trying to make me old
Get along little doggie going down the chisholm trail
A cowboy is always lonely he never gets any mail
There's a mighty lot of cattle to drive to and fro
Drifting and dreaming as the days keep trying to make me old

online today!Daydreaming!
Alone, being alone, colourful visions,
deep in my mind,
Eyelids flicker in wonderment, from what my
eyes have seen,
Yet those dreams of mine are lost
in time when I awake,
And though I try to recite for to remember the night,
my dreams are gone forever.

A Dash of Lemon
Champagne and extravagance
world of Fitzgerald
lights up the driveway
a party in full swing
dressed for the evening
history might fall
your way tonight
my friend
like tossed cards
in the pool
we float on
chance
all yesterdays
abandoned
for the electric present
of the opera singer's
immaculate note
carried over the lawn
as women dissolve
behind the blinds
a shuttered world
of Maserati and Saint Laurent
leather bound
Afghan hound
silver chains
string quartet
and for you Sir
simply a dash of lemon
"In his blue gardens men and girls came and went like moths among the whisperings and the champagne and the stars" F. Scott Fitzgerald

About this poem:
Watched Gatsby recently, DiCaprio did a good job
Rain drops !
The raindrops battering the windowpane!
The loneliness escalating my heart's pain !
I pace! I pose ! I wonder !
Lightening ripping through the dark clouds that thunder!
Wish he was nearby peeping through the windows across the avenue
A glimpse is all I long for to give my lonesome heart a clue!
“He’s here, he's here," my heart would whisper!
Wish he was next to me in my room so cold, so poor!
The looks in his eyes, the locks of his hair and his smiling face!
No one I marvel more THAN him for an engaging gaze!
His enchanting voice, his magical touch would have me deeply induced!
Forever I would have myself locked in his arms warmly embraced!
The loneliness escalating my heart's pain !
I pace! I pose ! I wonder !
Lightening ripping through the dark clouds that thunder!
Wish he was nearby peeping through the windows across the avenue
A glimpse is all I long for to give my lonesome heart a clue!
“He’s here, he's here," my heart would whisper!
Wish he was next to me in my room so cold, so poor!
The looks in his eyes, the locks of his hair and his smiling face!
No one I marvel more THAN him for an engaging gaze!
His enchanting voice, his magical touch would have me deeply induced!
Forever I would have myself locked in his arms warmly embraced!

online today!Reconciliation
Reconciliation happens
When we become friends
Differentiation when we
Be different and distinct
Literalization is truth
Just give me the facts
Decommunization is just
Tearing down the walls
Renormalisation is had
Conforming to peace
Extemporisation leads to
Performing without plan
Miscommunication fails us
Refusing to be clear
Idealization splitting
One good and one bad
Reconciliation happens
When we become friends
When we become friends
Differentiation when we
Be different and distinct
Literalization is truth
Just give me the facts
Decommunization is just
Tearing down the walls
Renormalisation is had
Conforming to peace
Extemporisation leads to
Performing without plan
Miscommunication fails us
Refusing to be clear
Idealization splitting
One good and one bad
Reconciliation happens
When we become friends

online today!For the "?" Poets
Lost among the algorithms;
Is some verse profound;
Buried in archival pages;-
That you may not yet have found.
Some profiles deleted;
(By members who have gone);
Now Endlessly repeated;
By the algorithms song.
Hark the unknown Poets!
In this sea of cyberspace;
(The question marks don't show it);
But the words retain their grace.
Much, this verse is excellent;
(Though they have sought not fame);
And some poets, - they don't care;
If they leave behind a name.
Next time, you are stopping by;
Just spare a thought or two;
For those fine unknown Poets;
Who wrote just for me and you.

About this poem:
Dedicated to ALL the poets; who are now designated by a "?" (instead of a username), here on CS....
Heaven
Heaven
It is a place we all want to go
I asked a priest once
When I die is it a long trip toward the bright light of heaven?
He said no
When you die it will be revealed to you
What you could not see, you will see
But
You have to remember
Heaven is not a place
It is God
I think of this conversation from time to time
Who is my heaven?
Who are the people who have made me happy?
I think if we can do that
Bring happiness to the people we meet
We can be angels on earth
And be heaven for others
It is a place we all want to go
I asked a priest once
When I die is it a long trip toward the bright light of heaven?
He said no
When you die it will be revealed to you
What you could not see, you will see
But
You have to remember
Heaven is not a place
It is God
I think of this conversation from time to time
Who is my heaven?
Who are the people who have made me happy?
I think if we can do that
Bring happiness to the people we meet
We can be angels on earth
And be heaven for others

About this poem:
Warrant's song Heaven was a song I sang for karaoke last night, it got a standing ovation, as it is a hopeful song. The album it comes from has one of my favorite, a fat rich man with money for hair coming out behind his ears, gold and silver rings on each hand, and a cigar made out of a dollar bill.Poems entered on these pages are copyrighted by the authors who entered them.
