Journeys

Traveling the roads of destiny
many surprises to be found
each leading to some new beauty

Some journeys taken most blithely
for exotic places we are bound
traveling the roads of destiny

Fabulous sights from balcony
of spires and ancient battlegrounds
each leading to some new beauty

Journeys some take with ceremony
for new places we are now bound
traveling the roads of destiny

Paths reach out in disharmony
the right one has to be now found
each leading to some new beauty

Some of them full of tyranny
the awful silence of no sound
traveling the roads of destiny
each leading to some new beauty

Like A Cowboy

She was standing at the bar,doing a shot of Jack.
When I walked up she said I like your cowboy hat.
I ordered up a cold one,she said cowboy do you like to dance.
you look like a gambler,why don't you take a chance.
I saw the ring on her finger,i've been here before,
I've seen love come and go.
She led me to the dance floor,wrapped her arms around me tight.
She whispered in my ear,cowboy don't let me go.

And were just two lonely people in need of some company.
And if we fall in love it'll only be for one night.
She'll take the ring off her finger,I won't even tell her
my name.
And in the mornin' like a cowboy i'll ride off into
the sunlight.

Well as we moved together,her body close to mine,out on
that dance floor all alone.
I looked into her eye's and I could see her desire,she whispered
in my ear,cowboy take me home.

And were just two lonely people in need of some company.
And if we fall in love it'll only be for one night.
She'll take the ring off her finger,I won't even tell her
my name.
And in the mornin' like a cowboy i'll ride off into
the sunlight.

We got to her place,she led me to her bed,she said cowboy
I need you so.
And as we made love,she wrapped her arms around me tight.
She whispered in my ear,cowboy don't let me go.

'Cause were just two lonely people in need of some company.
If we fall in love it'll only be for one night.
She'll take the ring off her finger,I won't even tell her
my name.
And in the mornin' like a cowboy i'll ride off into
the sunlight.

She looked down at me,as I held her tight,she closed her
eye's and threw back her hair.
And as we moved together,she wrapped her arms around me tight.
She whispered in my ear,cowboy i'm almost there.

And were just two lonely people in need of some company.
And if we fall in love it'll only be for one night.
She'll take the ring off her finger,I won't even tell her
my name.
And in the mornin' like a cowboy i'll ride off into
the sunlight.

She fell fast asleep as I held her tight,when I got dressed
I could still smell her on my skin.
I walked out that door,into that morning sun,I knew i'd
never see her again.

And we were just two lonely people in need of some company.
No we didn't fall in love but we made love all night.
She took that ring off her finger,I never told her my name.
And this mornin' like a cowboy i'm ridin' off into
the sunlight,yeah this mornin' like a cowboy i'm ridin'
off into the sunlight.
Ride cowboy ride.

I HAVE A FEELING YOU PARENTS AIN'T LISTENING ~free

the air was sticky and smoggy that night on a Harlem highrise
the only thing that was different was a young kid with bue eyes
he was a youth in search of a peace not found at home
and so the boy with blue eyes was begotten then to roam

he wandered into a world of darkness to seek and to search
having long ago been abandoned by both school and the church
neither education nor religion could comfort him so he took to the road
heading far from the comfort of his family's hearth and abode

so there stared blazingly blue eyes on a rooftop's domain
talking to a black man who could ease the boy's pain
thirty bucks and a handshake would send him on his way
and so he returned to that rooftop every damnable day

long island had raised him but that island wasn't long enough
and middle class madness would leave him with sorrow to rebuf
day after day he'd climb those stairs whereupon the two would meet
a tall black man and a young boy with blue eyes just trying to be discreet

darkness sold his wares by the dollar and the bag
the boy with blue eyes thinking about his toe with a tag
because in Harlem death is an indeterminate threat
and a young boy with blue eyes had better pay every debt

sometimes the air was thinner with a cold winter's night weather
yet and still they dared danger while huddling close together
Harlem had been his tutor and that rooftop his incubator
and here sit i with blue eyes and a habit sixteen long years later
(c) 2011.....free cee!

About this poem:
YOU MUST KNOW THAT BESIDES ACTING THE ROLE OF A RUDE AND SELF-SERVING POET I ALSO CARE ABOUT EVERYTHING NATURE HAS MADE, ESPECIALLY KIDS WHO THINK STEPPING OVER DEAD BODIES IS COOL, AND THAT EVEN YOUR LITTLE CHILD WITH ANY COLOR EYES COULD WIND UP ON THAT ROOFTOP!

a distance

seems like in was yesterday when i hug you
you gave me a warm and happinest
i looked in to your eyes
you smiled at me

I called your name to let you know
I need you here morhethan a "wants"
The space between us should be "flowers"
You created it be a "monster"

i sang a song to tell my feeling
to tell the world i am not playing
i can keep this love alive
no matter from east to west

THREE PIECE PERSUITS

I AM REPULSED BY THEIR SYYLISH THREE PIECE SUITS
AND ALL THEIR BASTARDLY BUT NOT SO BRAVE PERSUITS
I HAVE UNDENIABLE DISREGARD FOR THEIR INDELICATE DEEDS
AND AM MADE TO WRETCH BY THEIR WRETCHED NEEDS

I EVADE EVERY DILLETTANTE WITH OVERBLOWN AMBITION
AND EACH UNGENLEMANLY BEING WHO'S CONTRARY TO CONTRITION
I AM MADE SICK BY THEIR SELF-CONGRATULATORY STATEMENTS AND SUCH
AND FEEL FOR EACH UNDERLING THEY HOLD IN THEIR EGOCENTRIC CLUTCH

DAYS MELT AWAY BY THE MOON'S MEANDERING
AND THOSE PEOPLE ARE NEVER MADE TO END THEIR IMPERSONAL PANDDERING
MORALLY BANKRUPT BITCHES AND BASTARDS BETHROSED TO THEIR OPULENCE AND OCCUPATION
AS THEY FLAGRANTLY IGNORE THE RAGGED LIKE ME MADE POOR BY INFLATION

THEIR CANCEROUS GREED IS EVIDENCED BY CONCERN FOR MALIGNANT GOLD
AS THEY LIVE WITH UNDISTINGUISHED DISTURBANCE BY THOSE THEY BEHOLD
THE LAST GASP OF STARS REGARD THEIR PLEAS AS INESCAPABLE AND INNOCUOUS
AND THEIR PITIFUL PLEASURES AS SIMPLY SUPERFLUOUS

SO THEY STROLL THE STREETS AS I RETRACE THEIR STEPS UPON STONE
WISHING ALL THE WHILE THEY WILL BE HARTMED IN BOTH BODY AND BONE
BECAUSE THEIR LOVE FOR FORTUNE FORETELLS THEIR DAMNABLE DISPUTES
AND THAT DEFINES MY REPULSION FOR ALL THOSE IN THREE PIECE SUITS
(C) 2011.....~free cee!~

Let’s fly to Neverland! (A Terzanelle)

Though I’m not Peterpan not Ariel or the Angel of glory
Tonight I’ll come to your dreams take you to Neverland
Where we can never grow old so come with me!

In the Neverland I will make you be the better man
We will grow wild and free, a breath-taking fantasy
Tonight I’ll come to your dreams take you to Neverland

Under the velvet sky, baby come fly with me
Open your heart spread your wings and that you can fly
We will grow wild and free, a breath-taking fantasy

Way beyond the moon if the moonlight makes you cry
Your tears of joy I’ll dry by bathing you in the sea
Open your heart spread your wings and that you can fly

I’ll make you see, my love will last for eternity
Tonight when I come to you, let’s fly to Neverland
Your tears of joy I’ll dry by bathing you in the sea

I’ll treat you as my heart, I’ll hold your hand
Though I’m not Peterpan not Ariel or the Angel of glory
Tonight when I come to you, let’s fly to Neverland
Where we can never grow old so come with me!

How can I not love someone like you?(A Terzanelle)

You are my sweet, you’re my morning dew
You’ve colored my life, you take me out of the blue
How can I not love someone like you?

When the skies are blue, you turn it beautiful
When it rains in my heart you come ease the pain
You’ve colored my life, you take me out of the blue

When you’re not around, your love will remain
When I can hardly breathe, you’ll breathe for me
When it rains in my heart, you come ease the pain

You share me the secret, the depth of love for free
You’ve opened the door, held me like no one did before
When I can hardly breathe, you’ll breathe for me

I promise myself, I won’t search for another anymore
Because of you, my life has so much meaning
You’ve opened the door, held me like no one did before

I am your princess, you’re my prince charming
You are my sweet, you’re my morning dew
Because of you, my life has so much meaning
How can I not love someone like you?

I return, I think!

Return to me, I say that a lot now
For people I love drop away as though
swallowed by the quaking of the Earth.
Even the crack of thunder peals rhe air
As each gave up an agizing, last breath.
A son, a husband and a first boy
hoiend who was a friend for 55years.
A woman of deep faith for years, I
still ask periodically, Where di they go?
Where are they? and I wonder, will they ever return as I have?

Rodeo~~~~Villanelle

It was a hot and dusty day
the crowd fidgets as it waits
bull dripping sweat in shute bay.

howdy folks the announcers say
Raging Tornado in shute awaits
it was a hot and dusty day.

Saddle slipping this and that way
only held in place by weights
bull dripping sweat in shute bay.

R.T. chews on his cud of hay
pawing the ground in anger waits
it was a hot and dusty day.

Flies out of shute now comes what may
saddle slips man evacuates
bull dripping sweat in shute bay.

Riders distract bull hold at bay
while man slides out and valuates
It was a hot and dusty day
bull dripping sweat in shute bay.
