Ghetto Cries

Listen  to voices from ghettos

dry coarse tones

The isolated trying to get there

Where not anyone knows

A child born in misery

seeking toys

in high class trash

searching joy

Mothers trying to survive

from the ghetto’s cry

A place she loves

  a run-down area

discriminated

by society

She survives In the way she must

as she listens

 afar the ghetto’s  cry

Musical Muse ~Ask

 Ask the wind

If he’s seen me again

Hugging  hearts

Knowing it’s the end

Ask the moon

How I spend my hours

Searching for you

Covered with red flowers.

Ask the shore

If I visit once more

Where we met

Our oars ashore

Ask my heart

When can I start

To live once more

When love is apart

Ask me my love

how I really care

When all is dark

And your not there anywhere.

New Muse (pain) Soul Speech

Oh my lonesome soul

Where thy travel tonight

You shall know I was born

with ecstasy of sunlight skies…

Oh my lonesome soul

The thirst of lost love

Has invaded

Shadow in my heart

Oh my lonesome soul

May I speak of the love

I cherish

With care

Oh lonesome soul

born in starlight skies

dwell  on my lonely despair

  heart of brick

Oh my lonesome soul

Bring forth the courage

Of the one suffering

Whom loses faith in thee…
