Random Encounters
Random encounters…
Chance meetings
Life changers
Unexpected greetings
Interrupters of life
Uncaring guests
Random encounters
At their very best
Devices of change
Creators of strife
Random encounters are…
The spice of life

Happy Encounters
Love songs of earth
And fields made
Flowers of new morning birth
Sky tinctures that never fade
A heart of a beating secret
Full of love to you
Nothing in its ways to regret
From inside colors true
Love songs coming by
Every dream of oceans wide
The azures space and sky
In cloudlets drifting and glide
Every thought that comes to be
From hope we know
The world of songs playfully
Like dawn of dewdrops glow
Love songs in each new go
That gives life a new meaning
Every day's ordinary show
From roads of its enduring greening
Spinning slowly on and on
With flowers on the sideways
Past dreams that never are done
In their many shading's lays
Happy encounters
In every step and way
Happy encounters
In gladness you give away
Moments to remember always
Happy encounters
To share and to take
Happy encounters
To enjoy and to awake
With gladness for every day
Moments to remember always
*(Poem to my song, Happy Encounters)

You Could Meet Somebody
(chorus)
You could meet somebody, you never know
From brief encounters habits grow
Into giant oaks that hide the sun
Life in the shadows ain't no fun
It's easy getting up there
Never think of coming down
Not hard to say 'i want you'
When you're floating on a cloud
But you know that lonely feeling
When nothing's going right
'cause it's only the beginning
Of a cold and sleepless night
(chorus)
You could meet somebody, you never know
From brief encounters habits grow
Into giant oaks that hide the sun
Your only chance is to turn and run
It's harder getting up there
And it's painful coming down
And now you can't see clearly
Beneath the thunder cloud
And the loneliness gets longer
When nothing's going right
And things ain't getting any better
With another sleepless night
(chorus)
You could meet somebody, you never know
From brief encounters habits grow
Into giant oaks that hide the sun
Your only chance is to turn and run

The Cat II
Mice waltz down my throat
and birdhouse birds fly headfirst down-
More would but for this tell-tale bell
with which I'm collar-bound:
Forewarned, they scattersqueal
scurry downstairs to their comfy lairs.
Remember, I'm a cat.
Nothing to do about that.
Exhausting my nine ends
I'll straightaway ascend 'way up to kitty heaven
(a biggish sort of alley)
chockabloc filled with my old friends.
Cream me, kipper me, even
tax me with inoculations
You doing that
I may occasionally, occasionally,
(if the mood befalls me)
catch a rat.

A Variation on a Triolet
And an acrostic
Rumanian Thoughts
Out of such encounters bounds felicitous infinity:
Neat breasts, nice smile, piled dark hair, spirit, blithe and lithe agility-
Kindness of souls in the rise and fall of skin’s familiarity-
O sly the wit engend’ring such illicit ripe infinity,
Hot close-fit rhythms, glitt’ring liquid-eyed amiability.
An intricate virginity? - femininity! Virility!
O Joys, soothed sighs, sweet fountains, softly grinding blest agility
High into such encounters thrusts an intimate infinity.

Cigarettes and Me
It's really strange to me, I fault the companies
Tobacco companies, Big Cancer
For their inefficiency. All my life
I never smoked a cigarette, not a single one
Nor even a sweet toke - in that respect
Hash cookies did for me, once and decisively.
My Mum smoked occasionally, sort of socially
But Dad, he never did, though he was in the war
I wonder what he did for comfort
To relieve anxiety and pain, when members of his crew
Disappeared without a word and were not seen again.
I must have had a rather stress-free life, how come
They failed to hook me, reel me in at school
No ciggies in the playground. Why? At college
I was mildly into alcohol. That didn't last too long
It was travel, close encounters with the continent
Called Africa that made me wild and high.
I ended up with Big C anyway
But I'm not coughing out my guts at least
Unlike the original Marlborough men
With damaged lungs, cancer of throat and tongue
I managed to escape all that, fell through the cracks
Neither macho nor gay, bohemian, sophisticate
And now it's so much easier. Every place you go
'No Smoking' signs proliferate. For me at least
They do not come too late.

The more sorrow one encounters, the more joy one can contain.

No one that encounters prosperity does not also encounter danger.

My Heart
Thinking of you every second, since you remind me of the one I loved
Truly did love you, with the feelings of my true heart
Every minute, every second I am thinking of you
Only you come in my dreams and in my thoughts
Cannot say anything more to you
Love you so deeply and you are the one I am trying to think of, even in this darkness
Very well I do know that you are not mine anymore
Still when I think of someone, who is beautiful and truly sexy
Only reflection which comes to my mind is of you
Even though sometimes in my opinion I start to reject you
As you thought I was the one who was going to hurt you
Every minute, I am thinking
Sometimes, the feeling is bitter and occasionally sweet
It is only you, whom I loved so much
My heart knows, that you are seeing someone else now
Only you, come into my heart, sometimes I just want to cry
Occasionally, I even want to laugh and love you
My heart knows you, even though you failed in knowing me.

Brief encounters can result in long relationships.
I Wanna Talk About Me !
Uh huh, thats right
We talk about your work, how your boss is a jerk,
We talk about your church and your head when it hurts.
We talk about the troubles youve been havin wit your brother
bout your daddy and your mother and your crazy ex-lover.
We talk about your friends and the places that youve been,
We talk about your skin and the dimples on your chin.
The polish on your toes and the run in your hose,
And God knows were gonna talk about your clothes.
You know talkin about you makes me smile, but every once in a while,
I wanna talk about me, I wanna talk about i
Wanna talk about number 1 oh my, me, my,
What I think, what I like, what I know, what I want, what I see.
I like talkin about you, you, you, you usually, but occasionally
I wanna talk about me! (me, me, me,) I wanna talk about me-e-e. (me, me, me)
We talk about your dreams and we talk about your schemes,
Your high school team and your moisturizer cream.
We talk about your nana up in muntzi, indiana,
We talk about your grandma down in alabama.
We talk about your guys of every shape and size,
The ones that you despize and the ones you idolize.
We talk about your heart, bout your brains and your smarts,
And your medical charts and when you start.
You know talkin about you makes me grin, but every now and then,
I wanna talk about me, I wanna talk about i,
Wanna talk about number 1 oh my, me, my.
What I think, what I like, what I know, what I want, what I see.
I like talkin about you, you, you, you usually, but occasionally
I wanna talk about me! (me, me, me,) I wanna talk about me-e-e (me, me, me)
(I wanna talk about me) mmmm me, me, me, me, me
(I wanna talk about me) mmmm me, me, me, me, me
You, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you,
I wanna talk about me!
I wanna talk about me, I wanna talk about i,
Wanna talk about number 1 oh my, me, my.
What I think, what I like, what I know, what I want, what I see,
Oh I like talkin about you, you, you, you usually, but occasionally,
I wanna talk about me! (me, me, me) I wanna talk about me-e-e
I wanna talk about me! (me, me, me) no me-e-e! (me, me, me)
