A Case of the Blues

Some days we have the blues from our
heads and way down to our shoes. O 
YES, we are convinced we will lose when
we get a real case of the blues. Our lives
once worth plenty to us, now feels like they
aren't worth a penny and we may want
to die, to take our own lives,

O please listen to me. You see everything
you think and feel is phony and O so full
of lies. YES I know all about a lowdown
hard case of the blues. Everything I'd think 
was covered with stink, and everything I'd
feel was a perfect imitation of hell, cause 
 you see it hurt me more that I could Bear.

But while I sang them lowdown hard case
blues, I heard a small voice inside of me
say, "I know you're so blue you are hot pink
and purple but I want you to know the truth.
There are O so many Good Things and YES
Good Times waiting for you. Yeah I know, 
O YES I DO KNOW, but if I gave it a go
you can do it, too.

I Wish I Could Fly

How wonderful it would be to ride
the thermals and feel the warmth
of the sun on my back. O how I 
wish I could fly like a bird in the
sky; fly higher and higher and 
see the world I live in below me.

When I dream of flying way up
in the sky, I wonder if my dream
is real, if my dream world is O
so very real. All I know is  my
senses tell me my flying is very 
real, and it feels O so good to
fly way up there in the sky.

Perhaps our inner desire to
fly is a metaphor for our lives.
Maybe that's because flying
is like freedom. with no restraints
and for a time we feel no stress
or worries. Just the freedom of
flying and O so real to me.

He  Or She

Who Has the Gold

Makes The Rules

After a few games of hand ball we went
to his office. On the wall was the saying
"He/she who has the gold makes the
 rules." That is true in O so many ways
 He or she who has the gold  is the
 boss where people work, and the more 
gold he or she has, the more power
he or she has.

Those who have the gold pay for the 
election campaigns of those who run
our government.  Some finance both
people running for office, but they always
gain influence, and YES they shape the
future of our country and YES even
our lives.

The he's and she's who have the gold 
closed our factories and sent our jobs
overseas, along with just as many high
paying jobs. They got rich and millions
of Americans lost their jobs. He or she  
who has the gold is winning and our
work force is losing.

As for me. I think it time for all us
to start voting so things will change.
Otherwise O so may will live in 
poverty.

Family Fun

We have many things to do and
some are O so busy at work, long
hours so that we may have
success. There are also hobbies
and so many things that need us
so many organization that 
depend on us.

But here is my question, "Is 
anything more important than
our families." Once we've lost
contact with our soul mates
and our children. It O so hard
to get them back again and soon
they begin to draw away from us.

I know all about that because there
was a time when I worked 65 to 80
hours a weekwith my work. But the I 
discovered that true succces and
the treasure that is best is my family.
I found out how much  I was missing.
 So important, my family.

Is This

American Eagle

We all see our country in many
different ways, like my folk art
painting of an American eagle.
It is the symbol of our country.
about our land and the freedom
it offers all of us. But YES we
don't all see our country the same.

We argue and debate our nations
progress of the lack of it. We all
have different expectations about
what our nation should do for us;
depending on our politics and which
side of the fence that we live on, a fence
that divides us into our interest groups,
and our amount of status and wealth.

But there is a bigger question that 
requires our decisions, about what
we will stand up and talk about, and 
take the actions to insure our freedom.
Our responsibility as citizens or the
apathy of too many will paint a 
picture of the American eagle.

But as you see, my painting is not
really about what I want to see.
As for me. I want a beautiful
American Eagle.

Unicorns

Some people say that unicorns never 
existed, that unicorns come from 
legends and myths.  As for me I say
"They didn't life back then when
unicorns and dragons lived among us."
YES I believe that there were also
dragons of many kinds and colors.

They say that unicorns come from
our childhood needs to have magic.
But as for me, this creature, so 
beautiful lived among us. Perhaps
they left us to live in another
dimension because they grew tired
of living with men and women.

Who knows what foolish humans
did to them. We know the dragons
left because we were killing them.
Human beings often destroy life
forms that are much more than
them and O so different.

We killed of the Neanderthals and
yet they were no threat to us. You
only have to see their cave paintings
to appreciate who they were. I wonder
if we humans will ever learn. Maybe
someday we will stop killing other
living beings.
