1) wood dragon

Mexico City

is calling

her music

as steamy as her jungles

where did it take you?

2) takes me home

where my heart should be

wanderlust

drives me hard

out on the road where I live

out where I find love

3)Kerouac

been quite a journey

the sax man

has mellowed

but his song pours out like sweat

we're soaking it up

4) this journey

will continue to

uncover

new stories

I will listen for new songs

and give them my voice

5) a road trip

don't count the miles

count the words

write them down

roll down the window and sing

don't stop for anything

 

1) In to win

I play for her heart to win

my price to pay is heavy

but I am in for the win

2) In to win

do not tell me it is a sin

to pay this price for her heart

this I will pay for the win

3 In to win

let this foolish game begin

open the door to your heart

for we both play to win

4 In to win

let us celebrate with kin

family and friends to adore

for we all play for the win

 

 

another day

can say the heat

is beating him

down. shimmering

waves sing sleepy 

songs. he's snoring.

 

 

a rising star

goes far tonight

its light I see

will be arching

marking midnight

then fights back sleep

that creeps away

a day begins

 

I grow tired of traffic and noise

and of silence that annoys

where are the songs that rejoice?

 

it was cast away

forlorn hope of one's escape

a ninja star's life

 

 

in the ocean

ashen-faced men

will ken their lives

the knives of fate

abate mercy

 

weather-beaten

huntsmen of York

uncork bottles

damsels serve them

mayhem ensues

 

I dropped a coin in the wishing well

wondering if a dime could come true

its the thing to do when thoughts are about you

and honestly what more can I do?

 

they told me to follow my dream

to see where it would lead

so I followed it down a stream

where many a heart did bleed

and nothing is ever as it seems

in places where the moonlight gleams
