Have you seen Grand Jupiter?
Bright Venus? 

Gilded planets, arm in arm?
Climbing down the starlit sky?
Red Mars clad in armored charm?
Tracking brave Orion?
Riding rough his chariot?
As they westward fly?

All I see is you,
Our beating hearts as one,

Such tender kisses, like bright warm sun,
Forever bound in love.
These ragged heartstrings,
Tied so tight,

Entwined in fitful flight.
Blessed by a sacred dove.

Have you heard Beethoven's symphony?
Penned brilliance, scribed, each numbered line,
With fair upward strokes, 'twas keyed in E,

Magnificent orchestra, sounds so fine.

Notes sung crystal clear,
With dazzling cadence, accompanied by pure rhyme,
Perfection to the festooned ear,

Performed in four four time.

All I see is you,

Heartfelt dream and joy,

Soft, unblemished, cunning ploy.

Building castles in the air,

Enlightened vision, sweet pure love.

Precious amour, so seldom fair,

Entranced, embraced by realms above,

Spoken words that dare to care.

Song birds singing in the wood,

Twinkling stars that shimmer, shine,

Perfect flowers blooming as they should,

Two hearts, euphoric, yours and mine,

Clear streams ripple through the dell as only water would,

Quenching thirsty wild deer, budding fruit upon the vine,

Wild nature attired in all its glory,  

Welcome sunshine, oh so fine.

All I see is you,

Your smiling eyes, so chaste,

Lips so delicate, in perfect form,

Your gleaming hair, loosed in haste,

Gentle touch so soft and warm,

Untold passions, fragrant endless kisses,

Filled with boundless charm,

Along a sunset beach we stroll, enraptured, arm in arm.

 

And so it goes! And so it goes!
Where the world stops nobody knows!
With each breath, life goes on!
With every heart beat, precious seconds gone!

Live each moment as if it were your last!
Joy and Love filling future's past!
Each dawning day, every starry night!
Our destined time, Our Creator's delight!

Like comets flying round the Sun!
Like dreams we dream, moments just begun!
Forever One, we all must give!
As Human Kind, we all must live!

Brothers and Sisters, One and all!
If One falters, we all then fall!
Pray for Strength and Pray for Good!
In Life and Love, As we all should!

No lover's passionate kiss,
No others friendly hand to hold,
No partner sharing this earthly bliss,
No warm body snuggling in this winter cold.

La Luna guards love, passion ridden,
Sweet bird song tends this broken heart,
Hermitage keeps emotions hidden,
Vast oceans arrest us, far apart.

Faith, by nature, my constant friend,
Starry constellations awaken heaven,
Compassionate patience supports never ending trend,
As wise Eros provides love's joyous leaven.

Yet behold! Amour and Aphrodite!
Winged youth, armed with bow and arrow,
Sweet lovers sharing love's chaotic flight,
While tragic endings compose the straight and narrow.

God's laughing! Do you hear him?
As Venus and Mars applaud and cheer,
Yet distant Pluto remains far and dim,
While silent Mercury orbits the Sun, void of fear.

Seek love and legend on those starlit nights,
Enchanted comets transfer myth of course,
As solar winds conjure dancing northern lights,
And Saint Valentine pierces hearts without remorse.

Oh Muse! Must I dream of Incubus?
Adapt that role of Succubus?
Succumb to words that can caress?
Portent that phrase, that golden tress?

Wild Rogue, thy cloak is rent,
Soft Lady, thy perfect kiss is bent,
Such imperfection, this dereliction,
Explore selection, life's karmic conviction.

Lo! Broken hearts lay tortured, bleeding,
While unkept promises, tempt fate, so leading,
Words you spoke, rapt in tender embrace,
Love you broke, in love's sordid place.

Your Majesty! I worshiped you!
Your heavenly voice! Your cosmic view!
At last we touched, entwined as one!
Abandoned now, my song unsung!

Sweet music! A placid lick!
Grave lyric! A slanderous tick!
Famous for thy worthsome ways!
Endowing gifts on wondrous days!

I say to you, envision this,
Bleed now, without remiss,
Let drip that honeyed dew,
From veins sliced deeply through,
Like fresh ripe melons picked by you,
Unceremoniously carved and cut in two.

Trace love careful, with simple pleasure,
Triangulate despair, with perfect measure,
Where silver hopes, so oft in dreams,
Whence golden wishes swoon, or so it seems,
Then so sudden, dashed, lost forever in most foul weather,
Fine linen torn, unmended, tossed reckless out on frosted heather.

This broken heart, burned with unkempt desire,
A tortured soul, branded by raging fire,
Emotions rampant, unyielding pain,
Grip firm, this cruel sword again,
Unleash thy blood, that keeps one whole,
Let gruesome will, take its earthly toll.

Alas! These tears that stream down this face,
Behold! Scarred sadness in this lonely place,
Desire wends, finds its sacred mark,
Life's blood streams, in this unholy dark,
Away! Away! Yet demons advance!
Feast on this sorrow, this happenstance!

Again sharp blade severs, deep and true,
Subterranean grief, so cold and blue,
Pounding heart enveloped, by this lurid fight,
Crushing anguish surrenders, to this blinded sight,
Precious life fades, eyes close without remorse,
Bled freely, death comes riding this dolor horse.

There is a man named Zoppity-bop-Bop-Bop,
Who does the hoppity-hop-hop-hop,
When Mr. Sun brightly shines,
Zoppity-B creates lyric words and rhymes,
When Mr. Moon radiantly beams,
Happy Elves shindig, with quacking monotremes,
Jigging, jiving, spiraling round red hot flames,
Zoppity-B spouts red hot names,
Mr. bop-Bop-Bop waltzes round that shadowy dell,
Playing music games, rhyming words that gel,
Beezow Doo-Doo Zoppity-bop-Bop-Bop,
Wildly jigging that hippity-hop-hop-hop,
Old Rumplestiltskin hoofs it, dances round that fiery blaze,
Conjuring cosmic wishes in that dizzy spaced-out haze,
Imagining he might spin straw to gold,
While Zoppity-B spins white hot lines, we're told.

Damn the British, for all their plight and plunder,
Damn the Americans too, for all they have rent asunder,
Nations, throughout the world destroyed,
With unrelenting war,  uncompromising thunder.

In the name of freedom, they fly their flags,
They spur their steeds, they whip their nags,
In the guise of good, they force their creeds,
With willful spite, they occupy foreign crags.
 
Leaders of honour, so they claim, 
War drums beating, they oft lay blame,
With tortuous hearts, filled with greed and sin,
They steal innocent lives, without an ounce of shame.

As ages end, their empires shall crumble,
Along the way, each king shall fumble,
Their own people desert them, peaceful folk enslaved,
Those tyrants will fail and fall, their heads shall tumble.

Damn All those nations, that cause world strife,
Damn all those armies, falsely blowing freedom's fife,
Lies and wickedness, with all their horrors,
They're damned to hell, for each stolen life.
