SMILES costs nothing...LAUGHTER is free 😄 . . Make someone SMILE today. . . PS - On a noisy street, this lovely lad beckoned for me to take his picture.

To the man with which we watch

As he sits there reminiscing of times that once were

Remembering his youth and years that have passed

Contemplating on how the world should be and how it is

Reading a novel of long ago to the inspirations of himself

The thoughts that strike him are plain and clear

Thinking why no one else can see the same

What has happened in the short times passed?

Loss of strength

Barely keeping one eye open

Only if he could conjure the will to lift himself from the chained chair to once again feel like a man, Not a discarded doll with too much mileage and not enough to go

While musing his thoughts, slowly drifting off to the golden slumber

Sleeping away his life, too soon to realize what will come to be

A lost soul in the children’s eyes

The innocence of what will come is now lost as the realization of every time must end

As the sun blisters away the paint from the chair and the fabric beneath slowly fades away

He still sits there losing consciousness of what is around

The head slowly rises to catch a glimpse of the life he lives

Then once more gently sinking down, down to the point of no return

Like gasping for air for a man that cannot swim

Up and down like a roller coaster more dips than raises

With his worn out leather boots and his faded jeans

Tethered and torn

Show some resemblance of the life he once lived

But no more shall he run like the wind

Fly like the birds

Free as his youth

And the hair which is upon his head has thinned to a whisper and lost colour and distinction

The face that has seen so much

Kissed so many woman

Loved so many people

Eaten so much junk

Seen so much filth

Is withering away, the father figure can’t answer the call

The ideas of a cruel less free world, with a perfect utopia has long passed

For the strength that binds he has also passed the date of any use

Free-to-all he sometimes cried from the lips of his empty mouth

But no more for the environment he’ll sing

No more for the street march he’ll walk

No more for the move forward action and thoughts that now elude his mind

Still the wind cries his name

The reply will be empty and with no sound for it’s a dying shame

The garden that grows and was once nurtured from his weary hands

Gently drifts back into the soil from which it came

The plants die of thirst of knowledge and wisdom

The trees too, suffocate by malnutrition of his beautiful ideas

Fascinating and mystic

The only thing that grows within is the looming death or is it the lump of regret

Only one thing is certain which is the pending doom of no existence

Only in thoughts

Remembering him for ‘what he was and not what he is’ they moan,

But only time will tell who the real friends and who are just fake and tacky

Hiding behind their shadows, only to fear him, but not out of resentment

But fear of his ideas and his principles that mean so much to him

Pill boxes of things of all sorts that are piled on top of each other

A never ending cycle, pain goes, take one

The pain comes back, take another

What happened to not becoming like the previous?

But it happens inevitably; to anyone who carries such a sickness

The doctors don’t mind what they hand out as long as it keeps him away from the ward

And keeps you satisfied to the point of delusion

Alternative Universe

Why shalt we be calm?

Express our opinion as it may

The closing of doors

And nothing to say

Repression of words

Wide mouths do they close

Seeking words of wisdom

Like a barbed thorny rose

Life as we know it

Maybe gone

Where will we go?

When the light is last shone

Alternative universe

Taking all the words away

Alternative universe

Leading easy people astray

Touched by reality

People they do cringe

Playing their life by cards

To complain and whinge

Sick fantasies, what’s unreal?

How do they tell?

Being cursed, cheated and damned

Only to be selled

Alternative universe

Ridiculed and lost

Alternative universe

Surely at what cost

Business people they do laugh

At what is not theirs

Staring blankly at the wall

Who has not to care

Blind they walk

Even without a sound

Pictures they move towards them

Leaping up from the ground

Alternative universe

Deaf and blind

Alternative universe

Only the human mind

Addicted to Pugs

Their greasy hair

Their stumpy legs

Looks like they have found rotten eggs

Their belly’s fat

Their teeth grind

More pug pups would blow your mind

And you don’t mind

If they're not fat

They’ll need a fix

They’ll need a pat

Late at night

You always dream

Pugs in your bed

Snorting I see

You know you like them alive or stuffed…………oh Yeah

It’s pretty obvious to me

You can’t get enough

You know you got to face it

You’re addicted to pugs

Flat faces, snotty nosed

Stubby legs, boggled eyes

Cream or black and colour skin

There’s no kind you haven’t seen

You planned a trip to Sydney

Just to see more pugs for me

I understand you must of thought

I can’t deny, they have a cute snort

You know you like them alive or stuffed……………oh Yeah

It’s pretty obvious to me

You can’t get enough

You know you got to face it

You’re addicted to pugs

Calling Through the Wind

As the story goes

The river will flow

And the mountains will stay still

The trees will sway

And the children will play

And the winter will bring its chill

Well the women will dance

And the men take their stance

High above the hill

The stars get brighter

And the moon gets higher

And the wolves get ready to kill

For she’s calling...

Calling through the wind

The Orchestra of War

The race it has no limits

As it rides off into the distance

The horsemen take their stance

As they take their final glance

As the bullet rips through the pane of glass

As they draw their flashing swords

As it comes closer to the war

They speak their final words

Then pushed into the herd

And then the whistle blows

The orchestra of war

No majors and no sevenths

Just the dark and gloomy minors

For the chords will wreak their vengeance

It’s the orchestra of war

Gallop into no-where

For the last big final push

Sacrifice for what cause

Blood pumping of the rush

And then the ending chord has now begun

Flickering through existence

Life is now short

For when it is all over

The children will be taught

To take their number and stand in line

The orchestra in the back

Are playing a sorrowful tune

While the men are screaming their own sad song

As the symbols crash and boom

And then there was silence over there

The orchestra of war

It’s dark and evil chord

As they play they also sin

While they die they also grin

It’s the orchestra of war

As the last few notes are played

And the orchestra is nearly done

The bugles playing that long ‘last post’

As the last long race has run

The pitch black colour fills the sky

If the darkness could have a sound

It would be quite, nearly without a noise

A slight shriek, an eerie twist

A hum then poise

As the orchestra fades away into the night

The bass player had dreams and left

The clarinet had ambitions too

The string section all got conscripted

And the horns joined them too

And the rest die with-in a plane

The orchestra is still there

The instruments can never play

The musicians have all gone and died

So the music has no-where to stay

The end of the orchestra of war

The orchestra of war

No majors and no sevenths

Just the dark and gloomy minors

For the chords will wreak their vengeance

It’s the orchestra of war

So my darling of darlings, whom which I sleep next to in my bed of dreams, that I mesmerize my entirety over. For when she is in a place of slumber her heart desires only the purist of thoughts, through billowing smoke and clouds of mist the wild horses of her mind run wild through the elusive imagination she has and wants to be there to caress his body with an innocent touch.
