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 the remnants
Children played without a fear
Underneath the blanket
An infant clings to life [...]

I wish I could fly like a kite
And go far beyond
To where the sky gives the land a bite
With nothing else around
I wish to be amidst green mountains
And rivers that sing a flute
Away from all the din and tension
With just nature absolute
I wish to sit gazing day long
Across the deep blue oceans
As the gulls and [...]

Is she waiting in the snowfall of an unseen distant plateau,
That still lives today on Christmas cards all packed up now? Is that so?
Would the lamps that light the pathways put a glow upon her face?
Are these images of fantasies all gone without a trace?
Is she staring from the window of a house, with fascination,
And [...]

What lies beneath your flaws?
Your lies or your laws?
And what is your lie?
Is it everything that you try?
And what is your law?
The things that you tried and saw.
Then is there any way to go,
And hide from these lies and laws?
‘Cause they aren’t the virtue, they are my foe,
And they stab me with the blades [...]

Fortunate
Have you ever considered?
How fortunate you are
To gaze at the sky
And see a star,
And say to yourself
I wonder how many there are?
To walk through a garden
And smell the rose.
Skip through dewy grass
In your bare feet and toes
Before the sun arose?
Take long walks on
A crisp fall day.
Build a snowman
On a cold wintry night
Giving him eyes of [...]

I hear a heartfelt sob deep within my soul,
It touches me in such a way, yet for why I don’t really know
I pondered on the reason why this sound has come to me
As I think of all that had past and worry of what is to be
My mother the earth weeps for all that has [...]

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 [...]

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, [...]
