Little Words

When you are gone,
there is nor bloom nor leaf,
Nor singing sea at night,
nor silver birds;
And I can only stare,
and shape my grief
In little words.

~ Dorothy Parker

born to be happy

was loved and knew how to love

with a heart of gold

Poem:

.

here’s hoping that your every day is a Sunday
giving your Higher Power a day to rest
having gratitude for each and every day
doing His will makes it the best

accepting life without a worry
always trying to do the next right thing
do it now so later you won’t have to hurry
please don’t cry over the broken shoe string

begin each day with an attitude of gratitude
best to know that you have a choice
better to be seen than being viewed
show your love by using a happy voice

don’t pay Peter by what from Paul you rob
always the choice, happiness is an inside job

Mind*blowing

.

“When you make music

or write or create,

it’s really your job

to have mind-blowing,

irresponsible, condomless sex

with whatever idea it is

you’re writing about at the time.”

develop a show
bring the talent together
write a song and dance

plan to awe the audience
end it with a sing along

Poem:

.

what are you thinking of
what are you dreaming of
are you thinking about others
your siblings from other mothers

or are your thoughts always about you
maybe your are a Swift wanna be yahoo
does your mind seek motivation
or do you have a fixation with lachrymation*

poor me, poor me, pour me a drink
or would you be happier dressed in pink
isn’t it wonderful that we have choices
devils and angels, each with their own voices

today, do the next right thing
the choice that will make everyone sing   

     hallelujah                                  (a happy song)
