an innocuous little ditty
just for fun
anything but witty
no brain tease
not a pun
but a word play
not too pithy
an absence of deep meaning
lines that just read easy
won't cost a nickel or a dime
or a forty or a fifty
only a moment of time
this little verse, so thrifty

ooh wee, oh gee
this deafening silence
has the most fatal tendency.
a tick then a tock
as the hands spin around
the motionless unfingered
numbered face harbinger.
wondering how high,
thoughts of just why
no movement detected
only the dance of a clock.
a clock.
doesn't contain grey matter
or convoluted electric shock.
the case is not bone
and no magnetic juice
to float in, just metal and rock.
probably were the old adage
"stone face" began it's mock.
must it be derisive?
can't it be for fun?
with so little to notice
perhaps there aren't even
ticks or tocks or
clocks to make mocks
and would a care even dare
to show itself where
this deafening silence
has the most fatal tendency.
most try transcendency.
but to go all alone,
see and hear
a tick then a tock.

tippity too
tip top canoe
Tylers, O'Reillers
Harrigans, Carews
a flippity pop
then a tappity knock
flipping forwards then backwards
and climb up to the top
tippy-toe stepping up
reaching up higher
and higher and stretching
up up then stop
and take a breath
chill, relax

"ONE MORE LIE"
It hurts so bad to see you cry.
So I'll tell just one more lie.
I haven't been out drinking.
And dancing all night long.
I've been setting in a coffee shop.
Writing you this song.
This ain't lipstick on my collar.
Or perfume that you smell.
Thease are coffee stains on this piece of paper.
Where I've been writing down these lines.
The words that you cant read were washed away.
By tears falling from my eyes.
As I tried to say. I love you.
And that it hurts to see you cry.
My darling if you love me.
You'll give me one more chance.
And let me try and prove to you.
That I'm still The man I once was.
And that I'll be true to you.
Until My dying day.
My god, it hurts , to see you cry.
Please don't ever go away.
----Danny,

"ANOTHER MEMORY"
Down at the end of an old dirt road.
Stood a little three room shack.
It had an old tin roof.
And the walls were full of cracks.
The Doors were falling off the hinges, and the screens were full of holes.
The old cook stove smoked.
And the ice box wasn't cold.
We hadn't had a block of ice for a while, so I've been told.
The ice man broke his back when his mule ran off the road.
Most all our meat was fresh killed, anyway.
We never bought much food, except maybe a little flour.
Daddy got with the money from selling his cotton.
And maybe a little syrup that he sold when the cane came in.
We had one old Mule for plowing, and Daddy had a few pigs.
Mama kept some chickens in the yard, so we had lots of eggs.
We had one old cow for milking and the butter Momma made.
Life was good The best I can remember. we dident want for much.
We got one new pair of shoes a year, but they were hand me downs.
The big boys got the new ones, and the girls, well they got none.
The girls all wore dresses that Momma sewed out of flour sacks.
The boys all wore bibbed overalls and no shirts on our backs.
When We turned 6 years old we went to school.
But we still had chores to do.
We had Fried chicken most every Sunday, and fresh baked biscuits to.
With collards and other things momma grew.
Like sweet potatoes and big sweet onions, there was always enough to go around.
That was life on the farm down in Georgia, a good life no doubt.
----Danny,

"The theater In My Mind"
I've had a story, bouncing around inside my head.
It's about a boy and his dog, and adventures that they've had.
It's about there travels from place to place, in the forests of there land.
It's about encounters with Grizzly Bears, and Mountain Lions and wolves.
It's about there rafting down mighty rivers, and swimming in ice cold lakes.
It's about there climbing tall mountain peeks, where Eagles fly.
It's about camping in lofty valleys, where Mountain Goats tread.
It's about the places, the Mighty Elk makes his bed.
It's about the migrating Salmon home to spone .
It's about the things a boy would like to do.
My God, that boy is Me, or maybe even you.
----Danny,

thought of this one from pages back, a rerun sort of:

well
what do you know
what do you hear
what do you say
just dropped in
just to see
if some one had written some words
anyway
or anyhow
for today
but alas there is news
news for today
a "hello" or "good bye"
a "how've you been" or "good day"
an "it's been so long" or "on my way"
a "missed you much" or "cheerio old friend"
no word no letter
no dot no dash
just blank page and blank space
an empty verse
yes alas
what there was so I guess
I'll just have to pass
on some words today
and perhaps then come back
to look again because
there just might be
a "you're looking good" or "see you later"
a "greetings to all" or "after while alligator"
yeah there just might be
I'll come back and see
maybe there won't
maybe there will
looking to look and see
have to wait until
a little later

a rhyme a day
keep the wolves at bay
big bad wolves
with their huff'n puff'n ways
and dangerously sharp toothy grins
with those steel-like claws
that can tear through any defense
or charade
well, just for today anyhow
scared them away
lucky, just got lucky
for a day with a rhyme
a little rhyme to save a day
now comes tomorrow
to not become the beasts fillet
hoping some one can rhyme
and save another day

"THE MANY LOVES OF A SIMPLE MAN"

The simple man has many loves
They are usually of simple things
He loves the rains that fall year round
He loves the flowers that bloom in spring
He loves The wind that blows in the fall
He loves the snow that falls in winter
He loves the moon that shins at night
He loves the stars that fill the sky
He loves a girl with a beautiful smile
He loves it when she sings
He loves the children she gave to him
He loves the joy they bring
He loves to play his guitar, on a summer's eave
He loves listening to the radio, and the Great Gildersleeve
He loves Amos and Andy, and the grand Old Opry to
He loves his brand new Chevrolett, and driving down the street
He loves going to church on Sunday, and singing in the quire
His name is Joe American, He is a very proud man
He served his Country during the war, on an island called Saipan
He earned a lot of metals that he wares upon his chest
He's like a hundred Million other guys, that live in this land
His Name Is (JOE AMERICA) and he dose what he can.

----Danny,

some one said "I'm leaving"
they're going away
to do another thing
some thing other than stay
in this place of information, conversation and fun
were they would visit
almost every day
until now when things changed
so they've decided, and gone away
was it something that was said
or a word or so we should say
did they receive a little psychic bite
when entering a Forum fray
wondering why because
missing someone brings on a bit of gray
that vague feel of loss, so
if we wrote them could we sway
just sway them to stick around
pondering, really, would they
