Rain Down

Rain down on me rain down on me

In sheets of clear sweet rain

Rain down on me rain down on me

And wash away my pain

I love the rain it fills me up

With joy and laughter too

The rain it helps to clear away memories old and new 

So bring on the rain any old day

Ill look forward to the clouds

 To clear my head and tuck me in bed

Ready for a brand new day

My Mountain Home

I sit at home not at home this place is not for me…….

I long to hear the horses bay I long to hug an aspen tree……

I long for mountains big and wide I long for dusty trail…..

I long for ponil, base, and clarks I long for I-camp mail…..

I go to sleep on a queen sized bed with covers nice and warm….

But In my head Id like to sleep with sleeping bag in arm….

And when will I return to there I never will quite know…..

But in my heart I long to see my Philmont home in shunshine, rain, or snow…..

New Year

New year time once again and all throughout the land

Peace we will not let you in

War is still at hand

Never stoping wondering why the world is in despair

For humanity has failed at peace again

And loosed the monsters of beelzebub’s lair

And who are the perpetrators of this crime

The innocent may ask

But the persecuted many of history’s inglorious past.

Rainy Travels Across the Great Divide

Plop!

Plop!

Plop!

Pitter patter pitter patter

My window forms beads of liquid

Looks like I’m in for adventure

Time to trek across the great campus divide through rainy puddles

What an adventure!

Better get a coat and an umbrella

Remember the boots

Brrrr!!!!

Cold out here!

Rain flecks my face

I dont mind

Get inside

Find a window

Watch in peace

Time to return

Time to trek across the great campus divide once more

College Student Lament

I got up this morning

Strap my pack upon my back

Try to stay awake while teacher yakety yakety yaks

My mind has yet to wake

I dont know what to do

I was so asleep this morning I only wore one shoe

I went to bed so late

Now I have a test

If only I could stop a while sit down and rest

Oh well so long dear comfort

I’ll try to come back some day

From college years and trials to the beaches of Kiholo bay

A Beautiful Lie

The beautious wonder of a lie

How can I speak of it

To have your credibility resting on one small word or sentence

Your world, your life resting on a precarious perch

That one masterfully crafted phrase

In a small ammount of time it can bring you joy or destroy you

In a small ammount of time you could gain fame or infamy

I am a lier

So are you

Our lies link us

Our lies divide us

We are the same in that we lie

Some are just better than others

Earth’s Untimely Demise (Irresponsible Past)

We find ourselves at the rising tide of machinery and the setting sun of god

And when we see that day is done no longer will we trod

We will fly and zoom and twirl on machinery galore

Until we will no longer see grass or forest floor

No longer to return to nature when the old ones die

Mechanization will be our salvation this is the government’s cry

And when the day of earth’s demise finaly comes at last

To its destruction we can only look to our irresponsible past

We were only soldiers

Across that great gory battleground

through row and field and wood

while friends were sleeping safe and sound

in tents where Duren stood

a path we had to  follow

with the mighty first

to deutschland where we would swallow

the stronget and the worst

of what we saw

and what we did

those days of ‘45

when we were only soldiers

trying to stay alive

Rainy Day

Rain makes me happy while others hang their heads

Rain makes me smile when to others it brings dread

When hearing thunder rolling my face begins to grin

I love to see the lighting and the trees blow in the wind

The Problems of Annie McGee

Annie McGee has problems

They come to her from  walls

You see Annie McGee’s problems are not really there at all

Annie see what no one does

Annie hears the whispers

Annie likes to tell everyone about her 2 and 1/2 sisters

She tells of giant dragons

She tells of large lagoons

She even told me once how her maid was a baboon

Everyone tells Annie

She mustn’t tell lies

Poor little Annie can only sit and cry

But one day little Annie

Will find an answer yet

Though she may have to travel far and even to Tibet

To solve the many problems

Her mind has faced her with

Even though its plain to see that she has lost her wit
