In a small town nestled in Tennessee's embrace, Lived a man named Roger, with a wild, free grace. A rebel and a dreamer, a hippie at heart, With a spirit so vibrant, he played his own part. With a big heart that welcomed all souls in his way, He spread...

“Blood in the sacred Valley”- Blood on us We came as tourists, hearts so wide, With sandalwood and faith as guide; To Pahalgam, where rivers sing, We brought no sword, we wore no ring. Just saffron threads and folded hands, A hope to touch our sacred lands; But prayers were drowned by bullets’ cry, And mountains watched our children die. They struck from...

Ventura Highway dreams beneath the sun, A Horse with No Name, the journey's begun. Sandman's coming, whispers in the breeze, Riverside where childhood found its ease. Sister Golden Hair, a sunlit, soft refrain, Daisy Jane, a memory in the rain. Tin Man searched with longing in his eyes, Lonely People reaching for the skies. You Can Do Magic, a spell the music cast, Hollywood,...

From Hanover's heart, a thunder rolled, A scorpion's sting, a story told. Through decades vast, their music soared, A legacy in rock forever stored. Rudolf Schenker, the steady hand, Whose riffs ignited every land. His Flying V, a lightning strike, That fueled the passion day and night. Klaus Meine's voice, a soaring cry, That reached for heavens, way up high. A power ballad's tender grace, Or...

A hunter of expressive words, am I especially those which I came to know inspire, uplift, or honor God, then try directing how they flow to tell and show. From a young age, words were a magic way I shared my inner thoughts on a blank page. Then, over time, this urge increased to say God's spirit seemed to guide me to...

Reluctantly I sat abusing Some old and sad familiar musing That for some reason kept refusing To lie quietly A thought that in a moment read Was understood and put to bed But now prancing once more round my head O daring memory Why must thee wallow on the tongue Barren tree with fruit unsprung Tormenting, tempting songs unsung In endless reverie So oft times I've thought...

Mid Autumn, Saturday 6.30am and daybreak is slowly climbing over the back fence. Frank O'Hara's poetry is still echoing in my head from reading it last night as I cook breakfast of bacon and eggs. Later I walk up the street to the chemist to get my blood pressure pills and as I walk, compile arguments against Postmodernism and recognise that the notion...

From desert winds to ocean spray, A harmony that lit the way. Three voices blended soft and clear, A sound that soothed the listening ear. Dewey Bunnell with words that flowed, Of horses wild and paths untrod. His melodies, a gentle breeze, Rustling through the sunlit trees. Gerry Beckley with chords so bright, That painted landscapes in the light. His soaring vocals pure and true, Reflecting...

You say you love me now But wait until I can't get sleep, cause my elbow is in pain And all I can do is sit and brave it out Wait until I need that quick drive to the hospital When I'm in pain I barely speak And my face turns into the despair I keep inward When all I care...

I am the sunrise the spark of creation the breath of nature the whisper of twilight the rustling of leaves the touch of rainfall the drums of thunder the colour of rainbows the kiss of moonbeams the spring of compassion the voice of love ...
