Underneath the pain In a Country by your side Underneath the suffering That so many sleep to hide Underneath the tremors There’s no Mother for a child Underneath the rubble Is what’s left of broken smiles Underneath the bridge Is a man without a home Underneath the moonlight There’s a child who cries alone Underneath [...]

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 [...]

When I was young, there was a song-”when I leave The World Behind”- I’ll leave the sunshine, for the summer- I’ll leave the tree tops, for the breeze, I’ll leave the moon above, for those in love- When I leave the world, behind! I’ll leave the moonlight, for the dreamers, I’ll leave the great ships [...]

Then the little dog looked up at me- And his eyes were soft and dim…. “And did he remember Annabel Lee? “And did she remember him?” There is no song so dear to me- Till lifes last tale is told- and over her tomb, the silver moon Turns all her beams, to gold! Was there [...]

Someday, you will read Edgar Allan Poe’s, “Annable Lee” as I did long ago. For many and many a year ago- In a kingdom, by the sea…… A lonely poet wrote a song, And called it “Annabel Lee”……. They call him “The-Haunted-Poet” now…. “And the stars were as bright as her eyes!” And the valley [...]

MY HEART……is not in the City; With its crowds moveing where no one knows- It is out in the hills of the PRAIRIE: With their strong SWEEPING WINDS- And their SNOWS! Its out where the stacks of the harvest Once stood in the trail of the “Boo”- Who came humming along with his PITCHFORK; And….stayed [...]

He put his arms around her- It made the poor girl sick; Was is true? what her Pa said? That “he was a-damn-poor-stick?” HE PUT HIS ARMS AROUND HER; She was far away from HOME- She told him “I NEARLY FROZE TO DEATH!” In……my little bed… alone. He put his arms around her- But that [...]

I met her down beside a moonlit river; We built a Home of Dreams, and happy days; We did not say GOODBYE, and leave forever, Our LOVE SONG still is there, in the Autumn Leaves! When summers gold hangs on the tree- She comes back through the moonlight, to me; And far on the tide, [...]

“It was many and many a year ago….. In a Kingdom By The Sea!” These words bring back the long ago- And the days of “Annabel Lee”! Then the little dog looks up at me- And his eyes are soft and dim- “And did He remember “Annabel Lee?” “And did she remember him?” There is [...]

While he pondered, NEARLY NAPPING, SUDDENLY he heard a tapping- Like a “B” girl lightly rapping- Rapping on his chamber door- While the moonlight climbed the curtain- ‘Tis the wind…. and nothing more! Long into that darkness peering- Ohh what was it he was fearing? While he dreamed the dreams, no Mortal Ever DARED to [...]
