My friends

In the quiet of my heart,
there my friends are.
In the turbulence of my mind,
there my friends are.
In the pain and tribulation of my life,
there my friends are.
In the joy and laughter of the moment,
there my friends are.

Night

Good night cruel world I wish to sleep,

To walk through billows at my feet.

Good night cruel world I wish to sing,

To sway to chords that echoes ring.

Good night cruel world I wish dance,

To feel embrace to know romance.

Good night cruel world I close my eye,

To nod my head and touch the sky.

Smiles

I have decided I like to smile...
Though the world scoffs at me and reaches to remove it.
I have decided I like to smile...
Though I walk among the frowns of other choices.
I have decided I like to smile...
As it lifts my heart and makes my soul take flight.
I have decided I like to smile...
As I believe it just might be contagious.
I have decided I like to smile...

Morning silliness is leaking out

There once was a girl from Seattle,
who found herself up a creek with no paddle.
With a nod and a sigh,
She said in reply,
Girls from Seattle DON'T rattle!
