  1. This one of mine is about madness written with a whimsical touch.

     

    THE DREAM I ONCE HAD

     

    O ‘twas a Starry and Nightly Sight

     

    Boo or grr or ha or ah ha!

    Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!

    La, la, la, la, la!

    Da, da, da, da, da!

    And ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!”

    Then once more.

    Boo or grr or ha or ah ha!

    Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!

    La, la, la, la, la!

    Da, da, da, da, da!

    And ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!

    Then ta da!

    Tick tock, tick tock…

    O ‘twas a starry and

    Nightly sight.

     

    O ‘twas a Man like a Clock

     

    O Fool! Fool! Fool!

    I will ridicule a fool!

    Fool! Fool! Fool!

    It’s you who

    Broke this bloke.

    My glass is cracked,

    My numbers

    Not so black,

    And my hands

    Won’t go back!

    They spin all

    Around in craze,

    I’m madder with age,

    Crazier than a

    Thousandth page!

    Cobweb on my face

    And a spider’s long legs!

    Fool! Fool! Fool!

    I will ridicule a fool!

    Fool! Fool! Fool!

    What goes ding,

    What goes dong,

    What goes

    Ding and dong

    The hour strikes

    Twelve in the light!

    Yet it’s night!

    What goes ah ha!

    Now goes blah!

    Who goes nah!

    I’m not at awe!

    FOOL! FOOL! FOOL!

    I‘ve been

    Here nevermore

    And it will be evermore.

    FOOL! FOOL! FOOL!

    I will remind

    I’m a grandfather clock

    Who has lived his life

    With a topper hat

    Flaming at the top

    As smoke gets hazy.

    I have a rustic grain

    And all the

    Grandmother clocks

    Stop and look,

    Now I am amazing!

    A big fat crack

    In the glass!

    How mad!

    You must

    Have been lazy!

    How sad!

    FOOL! FOOL! FOOL!

    I’m berserk,

    Read the time again!

    You mistook!

    FOOL! FOOL! FOOL!

    Now I’m mad as time!

    All the time

    Going around!

    I say to myself!

    FOOL! FOOL! FOOL!

    I will ridicule a fool!

    FOOL! FOOL! FOOL!

     

    O ‘twas a Golden Pocket Watch

     

    Once upon a time

    In the night

    In a dreamy state

    There was,

    “Listen well!

    Listen well!

    Listen well!

    A golden pocket watch

    Repeated over and over

    Like a heart.

    Listen well!

    Listen well!

    Listen well!

    And listen well!

    You have been ornery

    I have a better story.

    At the tingle of

    It is mad, mad, mad,

    Mad, mad, mad. 

    Go to sleep my friend

    Nonsense is a godsend.

    Listen well! Listen well!

    Listen well,

    Well, well, well, well, well.

    My honest madness

    Forever pans,

    Pans, pans,

    Pans, pans, pans!

    Once upon a time

    In the night

    In a dreamy state

    There was,

    A tick tock and tick!

    It was the sound of a

    Golden watch!

    Tick tock,

    Tick tock and tick!

    Listen well!

    Listen well!

    Listen well, well,

    Well, well, well, well!

    My honest madness

    Forever pans,

    Pans, pans,

    Pans, pans, pans!

    “My name is

    Tick and Tock

    As it is written

    On my face!”

    All you can ever hear!

    Once upon a time

    In the night

    In a dreamy state

    There was,

    A tick tock and tick!

    It was the sound of a

    Golden watch!

    The time stopped

    And unheard,

    Reappeared.

  2. Nice words!  I noticed the spelling error in stanza three! Vissions should be visions. Usually I'm the one with all the punctuation and grammar issues, how dare you lol.

    1st track would not play for me, but this 2nd  one was no laffytaffy. I expected a simple accoustic guitar and heard an awesome intro, complimenting percussion, and a great canvas for some lyrics. Nice work!

    Thanks, the first one is an instrumental also. Thanks for listening to it! I've never owned an acoustic guitar, but I have owned an acoustic bass guitar! haha.

  4. MERRY CHRISTMAS! This cult it's alive, it's alive, it's alive!

    Well hello there. I'm not much into science and politics so much so I didn't understand your response to well to be honest, I don't like to be a liar acting as if I knew what you were saying. Anyways my vocab is not up there with yours also! 😎 I tend to stay away from politics because its driving everyone to hate each other, just like science I think.😭 Here is where I'm coming from. I believe in Christian philosophy.😇 There doesn't have to be a but if you are correct! Eh? I don't want to sound like I know everything because the Holy Bible says you will not know everything while on Earth. There is a book! I mean if a person is Christian or whatever you choose to believe you get different viewpoints concerning reality and how you feel about it, what you decide to do about it and it just goes on that someone suffering might say why me and get totally different answers. Eh, my two cents of knowledge!

  5. That was a good poem! I enjoyed it though I'm late to respond.

    Here is one of mine.

    Once Late at Night

    In the deep hour of delight

    In the blackness I seen

    A wee bit of white.

    All over in the sky

    I found my eye

    Attentive on the glory of God

    I saw chapter nineteen

    And verse one

    Out of the book of Psalm.

    It was one starry world,

    The universe long,

    Long and long

    Like life is everlasting goes

    On, on and on.

    I saw God when I looked

    On a starry night I was hooked.

    Open your eyes into

    The light in the night,

    Keep your eyes awake children

    Use your hearts

    Look out at all the stars

    With your eyes leaping away.

    The stars have been spread

    Like what I have read

    Then may we be seen tonight,

    I'll see me in the starlight.
