made a beautiful silky bow collar,for his little skinny neck
so me and you can go for a walk,
sneeked out the gate walking around to the front
all the kids were amazed,dancing skipping for joy,
they all wanted a pet duck,thinking to myself make a fortune selling ducks
i never laughed so much,in fact my sides were splitting,
the kids actually thought he was funny
wabbling along with his color bow,he was a comical site quacking
they loved him,shouting can we get a pet duck,my plan is working,
squeuling with joy and glee
then the woman i was with at the time
cried and moaned,created a whole scene,
gave out to me,saying all the neighbours are chatting
yeah chatting about you,ha ha i laughed driving her totally insane,
saying i was mad in the head,i dont really care what the say,
buying a kid a duck for his birthday'poor little duck shes disowning you,
so you dont want the duck,i said to her
it was all your idea in the first place sure the young fellow cried for the duck,i might of know i would get blamed,i knew someone giving away a duck
i happened to mentions a duck,you oked it
you and the kids,past tense the scorpion who struck bitten on the back
who gave me bad blood
ill give them something to talk about
the only reason they had dogs and cat,they bite
i have a duck so what,my pet duck,are they afraid of the duck
i gave him to my father,she panicked afraid of gossip ha ha
i was the first in the area to have a pet duck haha
more than could be said for some
sure they copy everyone else,im different,i dont care
all kids loved him,a pity about her
my father still has him years later
hes getting old and grey
dad looks after him like royalty
he follows around after him like a dog
this is the story of my pet
now my dad and the duck
hes the happiest duck alive

Sorry to wake you at such an
early hour, but I stepped outside
my spaceship to repair a leaky
hose and I severed my lifeline on
a sharp edge.
Now I'm just floating 200 miles above
the earth. It's a spaceship I threw together
in my garage made of trash cans; a bunch
of propane bottles, and whatever I could
scrounge up at the hardware store.
My mother-in-law wanted me to take her
for a spin around the Milky Way so I
strapped her in a blasted off immediately.
You can understand my enthusiasm.
Now she's holding up a sign in the lil
round porthole window. It reads: 'I told
ya I'd get even!' She even drew a lil smiley
face..Now, that' cold.lol.
Please send help.

Good bye old friend,
seems I have much to say,
now that you are gone
we won't meet for tea today...
I told you to walk
I told you to run,
Much did we discuss
the Jesus was the chosen One...
You always denied
that God does exist,
many times I cried
and at you I shook my fist...
Now that you are gone
to the energy of the afterlife,
like an old remembered song
you defined all the strife...
But you were a good friend
always a phone call away,
you would lend your last dollar
to the last hour you would stay...
Thank you old friend,
wish i could say much more,
you were loyal to the bitter end
what more could a friend ask for...

You my love
sleep deeply within
dancing upon clouds
blowing warmly
blushing red
sweet pink
cotton candy kisses
innermost desire
without lips
fluttering passion
breathtakingly beautiful
Chambers of
the heart open
to lay
with you my love
blossoms one
regal flower
within a petaled bed
touching this dream
adorable paradiso
softly caressing deeply
gently warming
sweeping feelings
Singing lovingly
music of the soul
bouncing emotions echoes
deeply in the heart
floating butterflies inside
rising to a higher place
feelings explode golden
loving you darling
takes my breath away
Branches envelope...
Love develops..
As we wrap our stems
music begins,
sound of
'Heavenly Delight'
embraces the cold
bitterness of night!

Lady, come and lay your head beside me
let us share with the moon this secret idyll
see the shooting star carve sky with promise
as silvery light caresses soothing us
Lady, come closer share with me the night
lay in my arms and give me your essence
wrap me up in the heat of your passion
love me til that little death overcomes
Lady, as you lie glistening in moon light
still quivering with aftermaths of love
sated though I am the sight of you stirs
with your hair tangled and in disarray
Lady, love me again the night's still young
let us dance once more love's passionate dance
as the moon beams play and twinkle at us
too soon night becomes day and we depart

Hugging!
I never hugged a rock!
I never hugged a Tree!
But Baby, When I hugged you!
What it did to me!
I think you felt it’s warmth!
That wonderful feeling that’s meant for two!
Especially given from me!
Hugging my special you!

All my sad regrets,
I held firmly in both hands,
My heart felt lighter,
As I approached the cliff edge,
And released them to the wind !

your love so strong
my lonely world disappeared
with you I'm so blessed...
you radiate with joy
your strength very potent
you're salt of the earth...
you are a pillar
of what's good and what is right
my world filled with love...
I knelt and I prayed
dark storms disappeared fast
beautiful light shone..
great old wine I drank
slept in your gentle arms
And the church bells rang...

Tell me
you love me
stay with me...
Tell me
there is nothing
I could ever do
to lose your love...
My love
may this kind of love
protect me
Until I die
even after death...
Tell me
you are stronger
than any depression
Braver
than any loneliness
be my other soul to cling to....

It so happens the other day,
I ran into Pain,
I said "Hello how are you my friend?",
"I'm so happy to see you again!",
"God how long has it been?",
"Wow how long has it been?",
But I was talking to Pain,
She said "Are you talking to me?",
"I don't even know your name.",
Looked at me in disdain,
Then she turned and walked away,
Turned and walked away,
I ran into pain...,
The other day,
I was talking to Pain...
