A Better Mood

I don’t know what to say

Don’t know what to do

You said something to me

I said something to you

And it didn’t come out right

Here comes another chance

*

We do this dance

Forever romance

Here’s our chance to groove again

You have caught me

Let’s have coffee

We find a better mood

To always stay

**

I don’t know how to play

Don’t know what to do

You explained some things to me

And now I’m taking your cue

If we want to share delight

Here comes another chance

*

Since first glance

Forever romance

Here’s our chance to groove again

Life has taught me

Love’s never stopping

As we design a better mood

To always stay

**

A better mood to always stay

Is the mood we want in every way

Instead of feeling sad or down

Or upset and mean at what’s around 

We want to feel at least okay

Every single day

*

Mood is always flowing

If we aim for better

We will find the best

Productive and caring

Appreciating 

The rest

**

A better mood to always stay

Is the mood we take in every way

Find gratitude glad

Smile through a frown

Be less angry

at what you haven’t found

We want to feel better than okay

Every single day

*

Mood is always knowing

If we aim for better 

We learn from this quest

Tolerate tough times and

Embrace all the best

**

I don’t know any other way

But I do know what to do

You mean everything to me

So I try to shine for you

If it didn’t first come to light

Here comes another chance

*

Energies enhance

Forever romance

There’s a chance to groove always

You’ve really got me

It is not shocking

We find a better mood

To always stay

Don’t Look Down

I have my feet firmly planted

Then I get taken for granted

So hard they try to uproot me

I’m telling them

That doesn’t suit me

People look down on me

Try to make it seem

like I do nothing

Cut me down to size

While I work full time

Speaking my mind

I think that’s something

Why don’t they open their eyes?

*

So many times that I have ranted

The view they have

Grows more slanted

Calmly they ignore and mute me

I’m telling them

That can’t refute me

People look down on us

Try to make it seem

like we do nothing

Cut us down to size

While we work all the time

And speak our mind

I think that’s something

It’s not that they are blind

*

My presentation

Generalization

Not targeting anyone

For a lifetime they say

We can’t all get ahead

Well can we

As we move around the sun?

If we had understanding

A push and pull

Then hold still

And start doing way more planning

Plan how to make progress

Create together more safe spaces

Connect for all of us give and take

To cover all the bases

*

If I seem to be enchanted

Then please use it to your advantage

They do not have to shoot me

For telling them

That can recruit me

People look down on you

Try to make it seem

like you do nothing

Cut you down to size

While you work overtime

And speak your mind

I think that’s something

Life’s more fair with a shared design

A Matter of Fact

I was going through the days

Aiming for perfection

Aiming for the sky

And getting lots of that

*

Then I made a mistake

It’s hard to admit it

Hard to deny it

It’s hard to explain

As a matter of fact

*

It wasn’t really my fault

But partly I guess

Not the worst result

If we strive for the best

**

Why?  Please tell me why

Do I take it all on myself

I pick up the world on my shoulders

Then I wonder why

I’m not getting any help

They stand by with perfect reason

it’s not their work

And it might not be for their health

I say look again

What about everybody else?

**

We all live together

We should work to share the wealth

My plan is a reaction

Really a clear knee jerk

Maybe they don’t believe my stories

Or in my cause

And what it’s worth

**

I was going through the days

Aiming for resurrection

Aiming not to die

And getting close to that

*

There was no mistake

It’s hard to admit it

Hard to deny it

It’s hard to explain

As a matter of fact

*

It’s clearly not my fault

Seemed like it I guess

Not the worst result

If we strive for the best

**

Why?  Please tell me why

Do we take it all on ourselves

We pick up the world on our shoulders

Then we wonder why

No one else will help

They stand by with perfect reason

Say it’s not their work

And it’s not about our health

I say look closely 

So that everybody gels

Kindhearted

Another time

Another place

I still remember your face

*

Loving since the day we met

Never disproportionate

Because our eyes

Are filled with stars

And we wish for all the best

And then again here we are

Circling Venus and Mars

No matter

when or where we started

All signs are

we will keep going very far

And we are kindhearted

**

Here we are right now

We all share this place

I’m glad we all call this world

home-base

*

Loving since

The day we met

Tender care is our safe bet

Because our skies

Are filled with stars

And we wish for all the best

Then  for sure

Here we are

Souls stay near

Minds never far

No matter

When or where we started

All signs are

That life will flow

Either soft or hard

Better if we stay kindhearted

**

We race for this place

Then we’re all back

where we started

Moving fast is okay

If it’s done with grace

Moving slow is

Sometimes so much smarter

At the same time

Either way

We can grow that much farther

When we all learn to

Stay more

Truly openhearted 

**

This is our time

Keep up the pace

With all

the days we have to face

*

Loving since the day we met

A connection we

Won’t forget

We wear no disguise

We are the stars

And we wish for all the best

And then for real

Here we are

Earth has left the door ajar

No matter

When or where we started

All signs are

The world can’t close our minds behind bars

If we break on through

Kindhearted
