My Mind Always Turning
My mind is like a jet,
ideas I have, hidden away,
not thought of yet.
My mind keeps going, going, fast as a train,
only at rest stops, do I wait
my thoughts, are simple and plain,
of poetry, do I love
sitting down at my desk,
floating along, like a dove
to survive, and to live,
the words shall flow
and to the world, I will give

Baseball cards so many
Baseball cards, oh so many,
i had two, three, and four,
of each one, i had,
the trouble is, there gone for evermore
I had the rookies of Mantle, Mays,
really i did, honest i did
where are they now
well, they went their ways
Started collecting again in seventy-four,
once again, oh so many,
this time, i will keep, and start a store.

A Message To Your Heart
Can i send a message to your heart,
from my heart to yours,
soon it will depart
There is no charge,
only for you to be there,
and i for you, my love,
how i love you dear
Together hand in hand,
we will be together
of our troubles we'll make a stand
Can i send a message to your heart,
from life to death
until that day we'll depart.

Pickpocket
Light-Fingered Louie
was at it again
this morning.
Wished he would
have a real job,
and not be,
a pickpocket
type of person.
Sometimes he leaves
me alone he goes
shoplifting instead.
Here he comes again
wished I could tell
him to get his,
hand out of my
pocket, my master

Old Age
My mind is alive
and turning,
but my bones
are frozen
still.
Resting so peacefully
here in bed,
can't move
so relaxed.
Time to arise,
things to do,
places to go,
but my bones
are frozen
still.
Dreams keep coming,
oh so quiet,

Creative Mind
So gentle and warm
is the creative mind,
tender is the heart
for a creative mind.
You bring down the
love from heaven
with your creative mind
and thoughts from within.
A gift you have sharing
your inner feelings,
from your heart,
so the world can see,
the love you have
for the beauty of
things you see
through your eyes only.

The moth hound
Of a coon hound
you have heard
there's plenty around
i have found
a very strange dog
who's nothing, but a moth hound
when ever, you see
he sees a moth near by
the moth trys to flee,
it isn't no match
as my dog goes after the moth,
and makes a wonderful catch
he eats it all the way
and chews and swallows
he looks at me, now he wants to play

Long hair dogs
Summer time is terrible
for dogs with long hair,
it makes them, very unbearable
they get to the point, they don't even care
Dogs with long hair
suffer more and long
they sometimes get cross as a bear,
and they can't wait, for fall to come on
Their so quite and still,
so hard is it,
for them to go up a hill
when bath time comes, they don't mind a bit

Blizzard of 2006
Snow, Snow, and More Snow,
when will you stop!
Of the flakes you do drop.
The Blizzard of 2006,
so much snow has fell,
many people stranded and in a fix
Here in Denver, stuck in traffic,
slipping and sliding, oh so slick,
if i have a wreck, how tragic.
Closed highways, people stranded,
this is on storm, not to forget,
finally at home, here we have landed.
