Always The Romantic - Hopefully!

Will I always find elation in the byways of your smile
And let my lips linger on your shoulder after ending a weary mile?
Will your honey always excite me, will I bring our backs to dew
And write romance letters to you my love always anon anew?

My wish is that we will always do it, our limbs will always twine
That we’ll linger often like that and your heart will be ever mine.
I hope I’ll still taste sweet to you when time has charged its due
And I’ll romance you day and night, and we’ll do what lovers do.

So if I sometimes falter and of your ways seem weary
Remember I will always love you for ever and sincerely.
I hope to linger comfortably on your byways for awhile
But always find my way home to the enchantment of your smile.

Look Through Any Windows

Look through any windows, yeah
What do you see?
Smiling faces all around
Rushing through the busy town
Where do they go?
Moving on their way
Walking down the highways and the byways
Where do they go?
Moving on their way
Are people with their shy ways and their sly ways
You can see the little children all around
You can see the little ladies in their gowns
When you look through any windows, yeah
Any time a day
See the drivers on the roads
Button down their heavy loads
Where do they go?
Moving on their way
A-driving down the highways and the byways
Where do they go?

Look through any window, yeah
What do you see
Smiling faces all around
Rushing through the busy town
Where do they go
Moving on their way
Walkin' down the highways and the byways
Where do they go
Moving on their way
People with their shy ways, and their sly ways
Oh, You can see the little children all around
Oh, You can see the little ladies in their gowns, when you
Look through any window, yeah
Any time of day
See the drivers on the roads
Button down their heavy loads

Chain Gang Medley

Chain Gang - Written by - Sam Cooke
He Don't Love You - Written by - J. Butler, C. Mayfield & C. Carter
Searchin' - Written by - Jerry Leiber & Mike Stoller
That's the sound of the men working on the chain gang
That's the sound of the men working on the chain gang
All day long they work so hard till the sun is goin' down
Working on the highways and byways and wearin', wearin' a frown
Hear them moanin' their lives away
Then you hear somebody say
That's the sound of the men working on the chain gang
That's the sound of the men working on the chain gang
He don't love you, like I love you
If he did he wouldn't break your heart
He don't love you, like I love you
He's trying to tear us apart
Gonna find her, I'm gonna find her, I'm gonna find her
Oh, if I have to climb a mountain, you know I will
And if I have to swim a river, you know I will
And I might find her hidin' up on Blueberry Hill
How am I gonna find her, child, you know I will

Why

Why
did I like
the highways
and the byways
with their
cheap
lodgings
so very much?
I liked
to look out
through
the frosted
windows
from
the heated
rooms.

(8-25-'97)

Victory Waved

What Became
Became Of...
The Broken Hearted?

lost souls
broken souls
derelict ruins

littered
crushed
lives life's

derelict hard
indented pitted
byways

choices made
lives saved
victory waved

OK, Let Ursus Major Speak!

Every time I read something
by a guy named Hemingway
I marvel at his taciturnity!

He says it all in little space
while others go on and on
like that Irish guy from Dublin!

As a second generation grizzly,
I favor William Faulkner who wrote
about Mississippi folkways!

Of course the guy who takes the cake
was a man who knew the trails
and byways of real wilderness - Jack London!

The Abrupt Leave

As I stare out my office window
I ponder when I should leave
The row of pines
Along the autobahn like speedway

Cars fly by
Raceway on my mind
Baseball, backyard picnics
A memory

I want to travel
New highways and byways
To see my new friend
We'll meet half-way
Where our hearts will mend

Just a few days
To get away
Solace for me
With my new pal

Zimri

I am walking through the wilderness of love and,
I have three days journey on this mission;
But like the tent of Yael full of milk,
The earth shook and the mountains quaked.

Give ear to my poems oh Kings,
Give ear to my poems oh Queens,
Give ear to my poems oh Princes,
Give ear to my poems oh Princesses,
Give ear to my poems oh Nations,
For i am walking along the byways of love;
But Zimri is my heart's desire.
