CANDY
IN MY DREAM
A
sweet apple pie
a gingerbread cake
the bubble-gum I chewed
did not all seem fake
All
the candy in the world
was right at my reach
the school house stood there
right on Myrtle Beach
My
friends were just pouring
I was Queen of the hill
it was storybook heaven
it all seemed so real!
But
at the touch of a shoulder
I saw the light of day
and all of my sweet things
just faded away
Why
did candy in my dream
melt away in the sky?
I wanted just one taste
of that sweet apple pie
Oh,
I think it will be there
awaiting my snore...and
all the candy in the world
will be mine once more
DOUBLE
JEOPARDY
It
is not wise to cry
over the same thing twice
The world can be mean...uncaring...
and cold as ice
It
can feel zero below in the midst of
May
yes, freezing cold on a hot summer
day!
But one shouldn't cry
over the same thing twice
There
is hatred, jealousy and greed all over the
place
It's constantly spreading like a darn rat
race!
Brothers and sisters are destroying their
brains
while praising their lives on smoking
cocaine
Mothers
and fathers are constantly worried
thinking their child may have to be
buried
Beautiful marriages are broken down
from rumors spread all over
town
Give
it a good one when the pain first hit
then when it's out it's time to quit
Don't look back five or ten years
later
to finger the pain that made you hate
her
It
is not wise to cry
over the same thing twice
WHISPERS
IN MY FOOTSTEPS
So
far away but close you stand
I'm drowning in your touch
Like meatballs in my pasta sauce
You're into me as much
As
Whispers In My Footsteps
Knows every move to make
Whispers all the cravings
And shows me how to bake
Those
Whispers In My Footsteps
Get closer all the time
I feel them when I'm in my car
They pay the toll booth dimes
While
strolling up my driveway
I'm opening my mail
I feel them here beside me
They moved that rusty nail
So
far away but close you are
I'm drowning in your love
I feel your arms around me
While putting on my gloves
In
the mist of darkness
They tell me not to fear
And all those stones before me
Are not more than I can bear
Whispers
In My Footsteps
Take me through the night
When I awake for goodness sake
I've won another fight!
THIS
VOW
This
ole cabin still cozy and warm
This ole man with the ole Southern
charm
Shall hold his woman from the blinding
snow
As she travels the distance, no matter how
slow
They
cherished each other as much as they
could
They'll continue to love and always they
should
When troubles are near, this will be
how
They'll weather the storm by reading this
vow:
You
will comfort each other when the storm is
near
As holding on tight will ease all fear
Keep each other sacred in heart
Fight the obstacles that hold you
apart
You're
never to forget the online
conversations
that led you to this offline
destination
Here you are both glowed-eyed with
glee
Have traveled the distance, the miles are
now free
Two
years earlier your reach was so far
Now side by side you're touching a
star
Fate was the key that opened the door
Door's still open, your love can now
pour
This
ole cabin still cozy and warm
This same man with the same Southern
charm
Held his woman from the blinding snow
She traveled the distance no matter how
slow
They
cherished each other as much as they
could
They continue to love and always they
should
So if troubles are near, this will be
how
You weather the storm by reading this
vow:
Understanding
and Trust and always Respect
Will keep you together and always in
check
Communication's the thing that has gotten
you started
If this is lost, you're broken
hearted
Emotional
Support is sometimes needed
a big strong hug will easily feed it
So if troubles are near, this will be
how
You weather the storm by reading this
vow
CHAUVINIST
Hey,
Hey, the ballgame's today
Let's get the guys
do away with the wives
Hey, Hey, the ballgame's today!
What
do ya mean
We're stayin here...so we can watch
and help you cheer
When Johnson makes the pass
and Cuttingham taps the azz
Hey, Hey, let us stay!
No
way, you ladies got's to go
Get out! go somewhere
Here's something to sew
Go do your nails
over at Gail's
Hey, Hey, go away!
You
know nothing of this
We are the Boys...you are Miss
This is our thing
our unity ring
So be gone!
The game is on!
Don't
be ruined by comments they possess
We know we're human
but are treated as less
Think about the display
while setting your wig
and see the example of
The Male Chauvinist ...
ELEVATIONS
It
doesn't matter if I
fall or rise...
Because experience
has taught me to be wise
There's
not much doubt in my mind
that whatever life throws my way
I will deal with it
Evaluate
Seek a Solution
and be fine....
As
within myself
I walked this generation
Of a different time!
THE
MIND'S EYE
In
the minds' eye there's something true
It's carved with gold and sometimes
blue
We harvest feelings in this fine place
Like growing flowers in a lovely
vase
In
the minds' eye there's something bold
That grabs emotions and takes control
This place is warm, has lots of Love
it beats the devil with a gentle
dove
The
minds' eye rates high on the chart
As this special place
Holds the Beautiful Heart!
