Mokeeta, Mokeeta; the soft winds are calling;
Oh where are you sleeping? Oh where can you be?
I miss you MOKEETA, when twilight is falling-
Oh why then so SILENT? Oh why then so far?
I miss you MOKEETA, Oh where can you be?
Far in the twilight your brown hair is gleaming-
I see your bright eyes in a faraway [...]

I weave for you, again,
No “sillysong”….
Of sunsets in the WEST-
Or……drifting sky……
Or TWILIGHT HOURS, from forgotten days-
or how the PRAIRIE wind…..goes singing by!
I will not pause an hour again to build
A castle….in the far dim land of DREAM-
Or how the wind flows ever whispering by-
Or bright with GOLDEN LEAVES
THE OLD TREES LEAN!
I think there is an [...]

There are no castles in this world,
Like once we built in Spain!
And never again the soft wind blows-
Adown the shady lane!
An Angel helped me write these lines-
She is always here with me!
Im sending HER to you today,
In a dreamers poetry!
I tell her “fly away out WEST!”
“Across the prairies wide-
And help a heart to find her [...]

The song of love is a sad song-
I followed the trail and I know-
The song of lvoe is an old song-
And we lost it long ago!
The song of love is a bright song-
Tho bound in pain and woe-
The song of love is a dear old song-
FROM THE DAYS OF LONG AGO!
Say Darling Say-
When I am [...]

O tree of trees, neath skies of blue
I once was glad and young with you!
And now at last you sing to me,
Of all the years, that used to be!
a tree who slowly, softly weaves,
The “Songs of Summer” through her leaves!
A tree who bends, as winds go by
And autumn sunsets paint the sky!
A tree who marks, [...]

If you have a heart for dreaming-
That somehow seems to care!
Then follow me down the pathway-
In the summer twilight there-
If you have a heart for dreaming-
Wherever the Fairies play-
Then follow me into the shadow
Of this old house today!
Of all the beautiful pictures
That hand on memories wall-
The one of the autumn twilight
Seems to be best of [...]

If we could trade away our “lost tomorrows”
And win with them the “Years that used to be”-
The young girl, with the brown eyes’
By the table…..the whispering winds in Spring-
That sang to me!
The crimson tinted clouds of Early Morning-
The summerdays so softly laid to rest!
The rustling corn, the night,
With twiight falling-
Of all these days, which do [...]

Soft Melody!

She gave me her dream!
I gave her mine!
We had these dreams dear-

Old Sam Bass was another “bad-man”-
There was othing else to do-
When he stood up, he didn’t care a damn
That HE WOULD SHOOT THE RANGERS DOWN,
AND, RUN THE BOYS IN BLUE!
He used to follow the race tracks-
You would always see him there-
An he had one good Pal, and true,
THEY CALLED HER THE DENTON MARE!
They were a [...]

Here is one to “old man dreams”
that we just wrote today, Grandpa
And I and the “Guardian Angel”…….
Dreams, Old Dreams, is a funny old man-
For you never, never can tell0
Which of his dreams, when the night time comes,
HE…..IS BRINGING TO YOU……TO SELL!
It may be a dream, of the “Hellava” time
When Herrman crossed the divide-
Then…durried home….tho no [...]
