Street Painting Festival

Street Painting Festival was a great success,

painted mermaid scene at castle I did express,

that Melodie’s birthday party ended swell,

Razel was hiding in scene

no one could tell.

Tons of people passing by,

sun shining brightly in the sky.

My back and shoulders did get burned,

spray sunscreen every 90 min. hrs I did learn,

friends brought me water for concerned.

Lake Worth Herald

The Lake Worth Herald records events in Lake Worth town
Mark Easton works hard making sure Lake Worth Herald paper gets out.
It's Wednesday afternoon and the printing press is running
all of Mark's stories are real life, serious and also funny.
The Lake Worth Library had an article on me
with UniCandle unicorn and doll Melodie.
It was November 2006 and I was on
Lake Worth Herald's cover page
sitting on birthday chair where
children celebrate their age.
Lake Worth Herald is printing
my new poetry book
-the one you are reading-
soon also on the Nook.
Mark was gracious and helped get my book right
he is friendly and easy to work with editing my book
to make it out of sight!
For it has a glow in the dark cover
it is different not like any other.
Thanks Mark for your kindness in working with me

Writer Damon Runyon

Shirley Temple launched her career,
with Littlest Miss Marker,
making her Best Star of the Year.
Damon Runyon wrote this story,
It was a drama, not very gory.
Damon wrote “Guys and Dolls”
which is a Broadway musical,
Manhattan’s Hell’s Kitchen named after him
named Runyon’s Way to this day.
He named his mobster friend Otto, Regret,
A horse player who used to bet.
now Regret is in Shirley Temple’s hit.
Later, Otto ended up getting killed,
Damon did damage control,
Damon wrote “Otto would have been effective as
a bodyguard as a child aged two year old.
Damon died at 66, he had throat
cancer the year was 1946.
History’s first telethon of the nation,
washosted Milton Berle for

Teenage Runaway

TEENAGE RUNAWAY
I get a call on my home phone,

It is Mary asking me to come along.

She says to meet her

at the bowling alley,

She’s pregnant and really needs me.

I hop on a bus with bag for one,

not realizing my adventure had just begun.

We stayed in an abandoned

building that very night,

We went through the

Tiny Mountain

The year was 1972
Tiny Mountain had a lot to do.
He volunteered to be in the Vietnam War,
He was only 17 years young,
his adventure had just begun.
He rescued 600 Marines who where Prisoner’s of War,
He was a brave soul for the war took it’s toll.
He shot 18 “ canons on a US Battleship,
to scare the Vietnamese to give up without a quip.
The Vietnamese waved their white flags and
let his ship come to shore,
to get the rest of the Prisoner’s of War.
There was a lot of tunnels underground,
Tiny Mountain didn’t go, he left without a sound.
He was too big to rescue POW under there,
there was cities with stores everywhere.
Like the subway system in NYC,
it was totally different not glittery.
Now Tiny Mountain made it back,
he made it without an attack.

Stylish Debra Ann

Debra Ann with her stylish green hat,
knows how to dress, I can tell you that.
Debra Ann is a real friend that understands,
she is the Big Sis I never had-she is sweet I am glad,
glad we met that one sunny day,
at Mother Earth’s Coffee shop
back by the tables with owner Patte’.
Debra was a friend that made sure I was feed,
she bought me groceries and didn’t care how much she spent.
We have fun dancing at the Cottage Sunday nights,
we dance up a storm dancing to the beat just right.
She makes me smile just seeing her,
she calls me Sunshine and I brighten her world.
You make me smile also Debra Ann,
remember Bible Study where we laughed and laughed?
We ate pizza, it was funny luckily we never got gas!
One day we will sale my coloring books at the fair,
it will be a fun memory to share.
Thanks Anna for being a Big Sis and a friend,
You bring you sunshine again and again!

Scam Reader

Who are you to tell me what tomorrow will bring

acting like you’re the next best thing.

Reading your tarot cards and interpreted by a fool,

she purposely said wrong things which where cruel.

Speaking French and acting you speak English no,

that’s ____ I think you should know.

Half of what you said wasn’t even true,

starting off with a contradiction how stupid of you.

Now if you were a true psychic you wouldn’t need your cards,

you could give me a reading in the dark.

Common Language

Common Language
The common language of Earth and galaxies everywhere,
is Soul Language, which sentient beings all do share.
Share their thoughts about conflict and strife,
bring back “peace” and end killing of life.
Life of course cannot die,
but can be needs to be respected, cherished and not denied.
Like Peter of Galilee,
was speaking Soul Language to 1,000 people times 3.
They all knew what he had said,
Pilgrims followed the teachings in which they were lead,
and became followers of The Way,
teachings for daily living of Jesus on that Pentecost Sunday.
Now nations of Earth can speak from a common ground,
hear the purist voice in the purist form without a sound.
Soul language has the presence of the divine,
it’s wisdom is used in Soul Language all the time.
Soul language can heal the conflict of the nations
Of Earth, make had a new world view in it’s rebirth.

Saw Cher On A Tour Bus

Saw Cher On A Tour Bus
On a bus I did ride,
I was traveling down Las Vegas Blvd in the night.
Many people I did see,
they all looked happily back at me.
I did surprisingly see a nun,
then I looked up and saw a security guard with a gun.
The bus did stop and the wheels did squeak,
I saw the profile of Cher the singer’s left sparkling cheek.
She was quite hidden for she had on a headdress,
colorful feathers that shaped into a crest.
She was on her way to her own concert this time,
with her entourage patiently waiting outside,
I realize I was on Cher’s tour bus with nowhere to hide!
Click, click the cameras went,
I snuck off the bus to Cher’s concert event.
It was at the Las Vegas Caesars Palace,
it was all lit up like nighttime in Dallas.
I thought no way in all my days,
I would see Cher before she got on stage.
