A PARODY OF BIRDS

Can you imagine a sky of purple cream of yellow?
A flock of swell gather to east and west
Dancing on small feet they claim prevail of light plunder
Seemingly small dainty refine they cascade symphony of
notes of gigantic water flow
Skipping aside the red stripe that reflect lines of go and from
Whispers of sounds of a parody of birds sing melodiously sublime
Rainfall of sweet water taste of chocolate delight
Tip toeing they pranced amidst the sweetest delight of chocolate delight
Grasping vines sinewy twined chocolate they combined swings of bellows
they call
Can you imagine a parody of birds shouting "hello" we are here sky of
cream
Twisting turning on tiny wing feet they danced merrily loud
Applause Applause thundered clouds of choo choo
A parody of birds flying sideways relaxed eyes of strawberry
Blinking lashes of railroad long Maggie said "wow"
Flying swift low they caressed cheeks of feather
Giggling, rolling, jumping she accepted sweet loves kisses of all

Felicia and the Oz

Twirling and whirling purple winds mix large and small

Felicia tumbled head feet head with umbrella clock in hand

Clashing down softer bird fly she descend

Eyes of lavender brown looked awed grandiose

Paradise of new flavor swept the air

Cherries great red blue yellow bounced on rivers of purple

Click clack down the road of yellow happy smile road

Skipping merrily she bounced on feet of air

Cow of talk she spoke of language of many

Felicia Felicia Mary the cow prattle merrily deep

Where goes the Oz of Great Divine future of land return

North North direct the bovine loudly and happily cry

Once a time of here there Princess Aurora lute flute played

Kingdom of lavish swells of white clouds bloomed air of sweet

Blue green red swirls of flowing lands dwell

Dwell dwell a seer of great known of capricious lay

Unicorns of plenty neigh play of great gallop of blooms of flowers bitter sweet

The Mouse and Lion tugged tugged ankle deep in traps of many

Felicia charmed eyes swirling of deep amaze

Follow me swirl fingers of light flowed crookedly grasp

Seer seer of white castle ice of formed crest

Journeys long fierced of babes of gentle bumps of edgedness

Paths of three before crave wind of time

Choose choose of which path crave heart of stone

Eyes closed finger paused middle of palm of head

Reveal reveal truth of seek by many of righteous and wrong

Middle middle crow the hand of future time spent

Opening opening slow as a sand in a pebble the door creeped and wailed

Moving slow as the spindle Felicia Mouse Lion proceeded forth tick toc

Webs of age draped and walked the corridor narrow swift

Light bright sun pain of blue yellow combined weld before

World of ice black sight betray the light

Far far deep of recess revolve spin the crest of Castle Air

Spinning wildly wind rushing West and North sight of clear

walking on spun webs of spider

Felicia blew her hand seven behold sun crest moon of orange appear door to fly appear

Felicia Mouse Lion capulated from door to Castle Air

Entering dark shadows of large they creeped below

Blind weary hunger they proceeded further within sad of turn

Who goes behind wall spoke gruff

Felicia Mouse Lion cried the trio loudly trumpet

Reason Reason awake me slumber of repose deep

Lost Lost hungry sad lonely cried all trio

Summon Summon me who tell grant way of home free

Mary the Cow prattle quick brittle relayed tale of true of relentless blue

Oz the Seer reached found of blast fire

Adventures adventures have found embroiled deep relay Oz of growl deep tunnel of curiosity

We trio fought wind of pain swirl of deep combine our name

Sword of word games that deal death or nay clamor swift of maybe

Revolving crash crushing walls we fought back to back saying sesame close sesame close

Yelling howling a blue green maybe hill road we commence a steady pace to spider trail

Here we be stumbling with plea crowing of help resounding echoes chasms

Great tales of feat accomplish brave heart of small

Great Oz say close eyes of big small six and tilt light of heart and say home home home

Awash in clearest of bluest light of wide clouds came thought of swirl of universe emersed

Spinning head over hills they tumbled great begins of universe beginning

Back back time wheel churn churn ever flow they begin to say home home home we be back where we start a play and not a day

Sighing sighing content content of everyday Felicia Mouse Lion fell prostate on ground of calm

Home home they never wish to leave again again again and will bless day day day ever more

Cloudy Days Storm the Gate

Seeming wide free the lash break the wall
Renew my strength
I been down this road of storm of lash
Road of pain and sorrows know I have found
I been down this road before
Life of cruel and disdain welcome I it have I found
Sorrows tree of white reflect the pain of gain
I been down this road before
Many a times a trouble seen is not what you think
I been down this road before
Seeming of great wall of pain this young one found
Old young the great willows bend and bow
I been down this road before
Trouble of now and yesterday of sad happy ugly
Pain of raw renown
I been down this road before
Knowledge of gain of renown of fame
Fortune negate world view
Lost found regain christening of games lies truth of release
I been down this road before
Pathetic world sin saint of crown of thorns
Walking steadily narrow path of straight line divide
I been down this road before
Amusement fatigue disgust of blue rays of ignore
Clear pain of no regard of yesterday tomorrow
I been down this road before
Success tribute riches poorness gallop side to side
Men boys women girls morals or not great small
I been down this road before
Arrogance of today is fallow of shadows of leaf grows
Grant of sadness happy of yet a aqua night
I been down this road before
Division of night day seemingly great tribute of Lord's divine
Troubling ignorance of riches too many spaced apart
I been down this road before
Fame acclaim afford much but a hunter's glen sparkle true
Society of the rich regrets poor origins of lack of space
I been down this road before
Pity rules the head thought revolve plenty look
Bought paid of a beggar's purse they seek sought found
I been down this road before
Storm the gate and it looks cloudy forms thick rich and regrets not
I thought the road of pain enlightens and suffers the fast bright
I been down this road before

A Facet of Freedom

Always remember that freedom is not always free
But tomorrow is granted to us all to strive on
That today is never a failing but a gift to the world
I have a dream that we will all achieve the gift of this
New America.

False Dilemma

Closing eyes of weary
Hand bricked at head a split
Questions of why fallacy abound wildly
Clutch Clutch mind blowed with false dilemma
Beg the question flash repeatedly
Stop Stop my mind explodes on this slippery slope of dung
Body paused heaving back churned in cross
To rationalize thrills minds aplenty
Fallacy becomes the rich content bath of deceit
Irrevelant closed eyes of weary clash colors blue red haze
False dilemma needed soon clasp heart of true
Heart of true misery soul gain a few necessary plays
False dilemma closed the one who plays true sweet

Josephina Felicia and Coat of Colors

Wardrobe of the rainbow clothe her God
Skin of brown she portray all to the world
Love cherish spoil her not
Teach her the way of modesty's plot
Short of stature big in thought
Saved by God's grace and mercy she portray the world
She say strengthen me Lord strengthen me for my enemies are many
and my world has crashed apart
Looking forlorn sad hurt misery's love she walked alone
She say strengthen me Lord strengthen me for my enemies are many
and few
Compelled to be who she claim to her Lord she walked the halls of misery
Solo until the Lord say I will combine
Guardian small stature say Josephina Felicia all I am
In thought deed I crumble thrones of kingdoms in your name
Mercy compassion be still bequeath my heart
Guiled fooled used portray eyes of brown clear ice
God's champion I rant rave righteous fire embrace flames of
faith trust love universe
Whatever his will be my life to understand clear his love abound me near
Mountains storms whirlwind his will tremble still break down prayers knee
Love my people yet understand contrary is the birch that hang around
Listen not a first but soon the shadows of deceit fall from eyes knowledge known
Josephina Felicia look left right stepped past free self from all who serve a God not true
Care not for the spite malice jealousy envy that follow tracks of effort
My Lord My Lord can I live self in world of few lovers of you
Many hate left thy care and yet still my heart hurt for the ones soft love of thee only sin relay
Still your mercy repudiation of them lighten sorrow in spirit and soul
See my plight My God many enemies knash at me yet they fall side by side
No one should know the pain and hear their sorrow within a soul of compassion
Step by step their folly close up to them clear hard and soon natural selection bequeath them all
Steady God says all is not lost with the eye of the needle
Keep thy mind mine says the Lord and within shall miracles be made upon
Josephina Felicia your faith has healed thee and without ceased my love abound
Love of eye twinkle bring forth good and mercy rainbow no longer out but within thy sweet soul steady
