Poetry

Poetry is the magic germinating out of the miracle of life

Songs of Spheres

This would be the 24th Collection of All the Songs

 
Sing Me Colours

Hold me soft and hold me tight
Kiss me fire and burn my flame
Keep me close so that I can be
Send me dreams in sunshine green

Hold me open and keep me close
Touch me pearl and put me high
Fathom my deep with starry touch
Take me sky-bound in dreams' wings

Touch me soft and bring me down
Give me life and heat me up
Bring my valley scream for life
Send me rhythm in sunshine green

Hold me close and keep me warm
Keep the winter out of my site
Be my spring and bring me summer
Keep me burning in autumn's luminous fire

Let me be a life's little magic
Let me bring you passionate bloom
Keep me slow and keep me fast
Sing me colours sing your soul's metaphors

Songs can Only Be

It will not be, will not be
What you lack in your dream
If your heart froze in fears' grab
It will not be, will not be

Songs can only be when one is
Brave enough to dive in and grab
The notes out of the depth of life

It will not be, will not be
What you lack to see or sing
If your reach and retract in continuum
It will not be, will not be

Songs can only be when one is
Brave enough to dive in and grab
The notes out of the depth of life

It will not be, will not be
What you fail to mould and make
If you fail to grab the falling stars
It will not be, will not be

Songs can only be when one is
Brave enough to dive in and grab
The notes out of the depth of life

It will not be, will not be
The world will not swing
The days will not fly if you fail to dream
It will not be, will not be

Songs can only be when one is
Brave enough to dive in and grab
The notes out of the depth of life

My Baby Love

My baby love grows like a wave
She plays my heart like a harp
She plays my heart like a harp
She plays my heart like a harp

My baby love comes and goes
She leaves her smiles in perfumed air
She plays my heart like a harp
She plays my heart like a harp

My baby love tenders silky clouds in clear blue sky
That's made of my dreams' magic spell
She plays my heart like a harp
She plays my heart like a harp

Everyday I Plant a Dream

Everyday I plant a dream
And every day I live
Everyday I dream and live
Everyday I live everyday I live
Everyday I plant a dream
Everyday I live everyday I live

Everyday live the life
Everyday I breathe
Everyday I take the road
And ride on the back of the wind
Everyday I plant a dream
Everyday I live everyday I live

Everyday I feel the bliss
Everyday I thank
Everyday I deny being dead in a box
Everyday I find my life opened in a smile
Everyday I plant a dream
Everyday I live everyday I live

You Can't Get Me Down

You can't get be down
Nor can you break me up
I stand steely and treelike
Always spreading up and down
You can't get me down
You can't get me down

You can't get me boxed in
Nor can you zooed me up
I move like wind and sing like waves
Always living up and down
You can't get me down
You can't get me down

You can't tear me up
Nor can you shove me off
I float like a living leaf
Always riding on wings' motion
You can't get me down
You can't get me down

Let Go

Let go let it go let it go let go
Let go and breath, let go
Let go and see the world still goes round
Let go let it go let it go let go

The stone bag crushing your shoulders
Pushing you down to the ground
Just let go let it go let it go let go
Let go let it go let it go let go

Let go and breath you are in the air
Flying on your arms carrying no stones
Just let go and the world still goes round
Let go let it go let it go let go

Honey Money Bunny

I have no money to buy any honey
Or a honeybee or even a little pony
I said to my once upon a time honey
And she said: my bunny sweet bunny

Honey, since you have no money
I have no honey to bunny you with
So goodbye my honey-moneyless bunny!
So goodbye my sunny donney-bunny!

Goodbye my honey-moneyless-bunny
I will sing to a sackful of moneyed
Solid honey now that you are gone
For I need money to secure honey

So here I am singing honeyed money
Song that is somber and surely sour
For I have no money to buy any honey
And I have therefore no honey or bunny

Make Sure You Stay There

I play my silence that lives on the piano keys
And think of you in the metaphors of silence
And wishes form and fall in the deepest of well
Making noises and echoes without any call back

I play my mind's empty slate black and blank
And I think of you in the metaphors of forming out
And I wish to hear your speak and stop my heart
Making silk with my breath and rising dreams

I play alone with the touch of the distance between
You and I that shimmers as a mirage well away
I carry on playing my empty heart of further calls
Making noises of dreams that won't make to be notes

I wish I could play myself off fully forwarded to a stop
Where I can no longer wish to play or sing anything
But place a cork of silence in my mute mouth and say:
Orpheus go to Euridice and make sure you stay there!

It all looks mad

Between you and I
The whole world spreads
A flowing silk of space
Played by the spring wind

An invisible butterfly
That flies by and comes back
To lighten the waves
Between you and I

Between you and I
The dreams spread and speak
Silent songs float away
Played by crazy a time

Between you and I
There are so many things
So much space and illusions
No matter how we look it all looks mad

The Horse on the Field

The horse on the field
The grass is green
And the spring is out and spread
Mount up and ride towards the horizon's call
The horse on the field

The horse on the field
On motion's rhythm and go
The wind on your face, hair sings the air
Ride on towards the horizon's call
The horse on the field

The horse on the field
The horse on the go on the field
The motion-marvel lights
On your face and eyes
Carrying aqua-dreams of pain
The horse on the field

The horse on the field
Ride on towards the horizon's call
The horse on its best on the speed
The music made of dusts, air and waves
Ride on towards the horizon's call
The horse on the field

Winter's song

What a beautiful windy winter's day!
What a thrilling tireless play!

The bushes dance in a daze
While the wind combs through their hair

The bare trees full dried up fruits
Dance a wakening dream

The wind is waving its wand
To stir the spring up and wake

What a beautiful windy winter's day
Lacking of ice and snow still glows

What a thrilling tireless play
To shake off winter's skin

What a rejubination! What a jubilation!
To prepare spring to springing up

What a beautiful windy winter's day!
What a rejubination! What a jubilation!

The Good Bye Song

It was the most inopportune time
To say goodbye, my darling
I couldn't not say goodbye
My darling you did not kiss me good bye

Life is too short that we know
But ours was made shorter
Even there was no time
To say goodbye my darling
I did not say goodbye
My darling you did not kiss me goodbye

In the most inopportune time
I had to depart my darling
My heart is bleeding
Yours is aching in pain
But you have our dreams with you
Oh my darling you have my dreams with you
And I defy to say goodbye
My darling you did not kiss me goodbye

Take me high take me deep
Take me high take me deep

Hold me hold me
Hold me baby
Hold me tight hold me hard
Hold me tight hold me hard

Touch me baby kiss me kiss me
Take me baby take me high
Bring me magic bring me shine
Kiss me baby kiss me fire kiss me silk

This Call of Mine

This call of mine is like the call of wind
It calls your name as the air forms waves
It comes and goes in silent serene a course

This call of mine is like the call of lights
It calls you as photons build their form
And it comes and goes like silent flight

This call of mine is like the call of buds
It calls you as the buds form flowers light
And it is, has been and out noticed or not

The Lone Lark Song

Cut up these words
Curl up your hair
And say: stuff this
And go out for a walk

Throw up this lot
And say: get off bucks and bonds
And go find a lone lark in the park
And be a friend to his tune and sing

Kick this stone in inside you
And say: be dust and nothing more
And go make some music with the sand
That speaks to your palms a moving tickly song

A Tree a Dee

If I call this tree a Dee and Dee next door as Ree
Nothing's gonna change but you and I enriched
With something about changing things and rules

Rules that tell us to say that a tree is a standing statue
But when I call her Dee the tree comes to life and sings
In the wind she dances and in the lights she forms arts

And at the night she lays eggs of notes and dreams
And Dee being called Ree knows how to make her body
To form a poem rising high to heaven's reach blooming

And here I call eem the way I feel about you and I
And the pond a puddle and the puddle a window
Give you this to make that out of a beat of your heart

Sing this song and call the tree a Dee and Dee Ree
Break this day and hay out a chick all yellow and soft
Make her go and cluck in the sun and sow some eem
