Another one of those questions one's!

Aint it hard to be YOU, aint it soo hard? If I asked you to write one line on a card, explain who you are? how would you take it? how far? One line to quantify you?, Would it be?, I'm me and I'm glad that I'm not you? Or, I wish I was YOU, thats what I want to be!,,Wow, that could be true, depending on what you see?
decisions you make, paths you take, life will be ultimately lead you where you have to be! So?,,,,,,,,, do you want to be you?,,,,,,,,,, or do you want to be me?

Another day

So the wind chill factor is -5 but I'll stay alive, this doorway is cold but I have cardboard boxes to fold, I can be ok, I can be alright, I know I'll get through another night, and tomorrow will be another day,,, and I hope, maybe better, somewhere for me to stay!

?????????

So we walk in different fields, don't know how it feels, for me to be you, or you to be me, we just cant see, and our blindness creates that void, was it you? or me that lied?, human things, problem brings, spirits show, high and low, our insanity, our creativity, and it always ends the same, because we decided to play this game, and we take it to the high, to feel the wonder,, and fly, then we drop into the abyss, and its all over!,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, what did we miss?

Who? What?

So will I write a poem with no reflection, nothing that will give any direction?

The wind blows loud and shrill outside, the doors they creak, the windows rattle about to break, but yet I feel serene, I dont care about life or where I've been, I'm just wondering WAS there a big bang?, hmmmmmmm,, we all came to be,,, was it a big bang?, hmm or a gang bang?, our Alien creation,, our distant relation?
Were they just bored and decided to create,???,Found this world, decided it was not too late, to recreate,,? Who knows?, are we part alien?,, hmmm or are we just apart?
The greatest minds have never come back, so, there's something that we lack, smart beings?,,, and nothing else, it's all about nothing,, because nothing makes sense!

Music From The Winds

Meditating on solid ground,
Rising slowly towards the clouds,
A place to speak with no sound,
Music from the wind won't let you down,-

Echoes of a long-lost past,
What is forever never seems to last,
The tomorrow that never seems to come,
Music from the wind you and I are one,-

A mystery, yet to be found,
Silent words of love heard too loud,
Up. down, and all around,
As we travel twice the speed of sound,-

A failure to some,
Winner born to lose,
To the end of time,
Music from the wind sings the blues,-

Music from the heart,
And from the wind,
When all else fails,
Only, we; left to exists,-
--Music from the winds,-

About this poem:
This one I wrote was back in 9-18-1997. Like many songs I write, it all started out by fooling around on the guitar. I combined this with both slow and moderate tempo strum and fingerpicking.

irish words

I've been asked to write about Ireland, well, what can I say?, it's wonderful, filled with beauty and charm, tis true, we've got Guinness and something more, that we just can't ignore, we have Presidents come from the USA , no no let me rephrase, we SENT Presidents to the USA should I say, and they always come back to thank us, just like Barack(?????), Ronald came, so did John, (F Kennedy), Clinton and Bush, seems like when they get elected they are in a rush, to come back home, see the old sod, we give them the nod, well done, my son, and we tell them, remember you are Irish, remember who you are, take it to the limit, take it far!!!

Loving all!

The simplicity of love , can be, lost in diversity,, love can't sustain the reality, of life,,,love is benign, the idea,, show it anything it cant understand and it dies, love is fickle, love is nothing, love is real,, love is love,,, its what we feel., right or wrong,,
