A Martian came to us from up in the skies
far away traveler in a heavenly disguise
he looks just like us and much to our surprise
he thinks like us too, musical-wise
always fun to meet with him
fun as much to share greetings with him
a welcome friend who's presence heals and mends
with smart words and kind way to encourage
all of his guitar playing friends
where he got all those talents only heaven knows
we're sure glad that he has them
our favorite Martian, so apropos
when he smiles his eyes twinkle and he wrinkles his nose
if you want him to laugh just tickle his toes
of all the places he could go
the planet earth is where he chose
one for the money two for the shows
with eyes that twinkle and a wrinkled nose
a tickle a laugh, we're not wearing any clothes
who loves you Martian
your Fender Lounge Forum Bros :D

That Martian thing can really sing,
Not outa space . . . but, outa sight.
I know if he or it were here,
He'd thumbs up you
For what you write :mrgreen:

Lets run, lets run, to the beach I say
down to the silvery waters edge
we'll kick off our shoes and roll up oor troos
and scream "FECK" it should've been warmer by noo

That's really good
where there's driftwood
across the land where there is sand
slipping 'neath the water
that's home to the otter,
and crabs, and such;
but, so much debris that strangles life
with plastics and oil
and chems that spoil
the things we love.
Yet, we'll trudge on until it's gone
for generations still to come.

For generations still to come
I fear its only gonna get worse
Shorelines twinkling and glowing
With Fukushima shoreline dust
Sea creatures turning to mush
Mutating into feck knows what
The land of the rising sun
Has fecked generations to come

And then we have the super tanks
With black gold Alberta sold
To BC banks along the coast
Throughout the isles amongst the smiles
Of rich oil barons and oil slicked herons
With baby Orcas, other whales
amongst the wrecks.
When all is done
We all get "fecked". :cry:

Lord, my life has been a miracle
every moment really wonderful
each and every day in each and every way
you showed a way to be humble and thankful
for the way that your love shown
through all of the shades of grey
shown through and brightened my path my way
I've not ever felt the need to ask for more
you gave me confidence and clear intent yes that is for sure
but this one thing I ask of you, it's because I can't do this without you
Lord, I need a do-over, just one more miracle
to go back in time with the ones that I love
back to the best of times back to the finest of times
with those loved ones of mine
to show them that I really love them
to show them I really care, yes
Lord, I need a do-over, just one more miracle
just this one, just this one miracle more

PS: To quote my favorite Australian poet maroonandgreysweater, "I'll finish this later" lol.
there is a tune and a couple of verses for this. :D 8)

I feel the ground beneath my feet
though I can not truly feel
looking up to darkened sky's
I see only the brightest shining stars
through the dusky haze of the city

I have a Strat, and keys, and drums.
I fret the neck and do the strums.
Arpeggios, ratamacues, bending, and chords,
Pedals, wah wahs, loopers, and cords
That plug into instruments, mixers, and amps
For all you Gypsys, Thieves, and Tramps

Excellent FSB !

I thought of this rhyme with a FB friend in mind. A jazz singer whose voice I like. She is very cool people over all.
The tune for this is very heavy metal to counterpoint the korny lyric's lol :

1st verse

You've got this feeling, just trust your heart
I wouldn't lie, I want you too
you can't believe, you'd ever get this far
right now I tell you boy, it's true

(refrain)
You don't believe
you should believe
believer

2nd verse

It is your call, just you callin' me
taste of your love, just what I need
don't fall in love boy, I want you to stand
stand up and be my lover, man

(refrain)
You don't believe
you're what I need
believer

(I need an editor :oops: )

Thanks, for your kind words SBLS. I truly liked your believer concept, and the heavy metal association would be an interesting twist for sure. Very kewl. 8)

I cant stop feeling sad today
a very close friend has passed away
it wasn't supposed to happen
a simple procedure the doctors did say
pre-op post-op then home in one day
something unexpected during his prep
and to critical care his body was swept
and there he stayed four days until the end
the doctors couldn't explain it
an autopsy they said
we'll look and find the reason
now that your dear friend is dead
I said a prayer this morning
when I heard the saddest news
dear lord keep his soul up there with you
not down here with the ones that set him free too early
the hospital of fools

I'm so sorry, Rollie. My deepest sympathies. I know how much it hurts to lose people. Let me know if I can be of help somehow. Send me a PM if you need someone to talk to.
