The whimsical ways of a wondering weasel
Have perplexed all those who know him
His indifference abounds
As he runs all around
In the forest
Where parents abhor him
But the lace-ladened lady
Who visits these woods
Believes that his antics are awesome
From that which is pure
A lighthearted cure
For the rest who refuse to blossom
So, if in the woods of magical beings
Where clear eyes can see what’s before them
Praise Him high above
For sharing His love
Through a creature
Who we know adores Him
As I lay here drowning in my sorrows
And I wonder why my dreams did not come true
I reflect upon my yesterdays – not tomorrows
Because the greatest gift I had in life – was you
Oh, the cliff that I was on was so much higher
So much higher than I had ever dreamed
And this fall from grace has shattered me to pieces
Now I lie here in a broken hearted stream
Calypso, what a flower
Held on tight for seven years
Poor Odysseus, laud the hours
Island bound
A trail of tears
Ebbed the tidings
Sing-song liar
Poseidon’s rage
Condemned the seas
Ino’s veil
Ensures the rescue
And finds Odysseus
Homebound and free
To the brokenhearted
No words can heal
Time will nurture their wounds
Those beautiful blue eyes
Oh, how they draw me
Into the arms
Of the woman who knows me
A heart filled with love
How precious and brave
To love one as me
Once broken, now saved
Who would have known
When we were much younger
In each other we’d find
Relief for our hunger
When I buy the farm
I don’t want to barter
No wrangling around
Or worse, a non-starter
I just hope to go
And join those before me
Hang out with my dad
And Jesus, he knows me
See uncles and aunts
Grandparents and cousins
Meet all the relatives
Angel’s wings buzzin’
And big fluffy clouds
All under my feet
Smiles all around
Yeah, what a retreat
One that will last
From now to infinity
Yes, that’s what I want
Peace and serenity
Don’t count me in
I’m leaving again
Your horses are dragging me down
Like clouded sun rays
You ruin my days
I don’t want to see you around
But the only way out
And away from your pout
Is for me to go back out to sea
Where the air is much fresher
Without you and your pressure
Just horizons that beckon to me
