To be a surrealist means barring from your mind all remembrance of what you have seen, and being always on the lookout for what has never been.

Act Of Rememberence
Arms of steel, hair of gold
Royal blue eyes, with a rebel soul
You scared me, you still do
But I loved you
More than you ever knew
This is my act of remembrance
My act of remembrance
Doctor's face, said the time had come
I stood up, and began to run
My boy's voice, called your name
You roared back and the silence came
This is my act of remembrance
My act of remembrance
Drove my car, to your street
Hoped a ghost, I would meet
Well that ghost, he's moved on
But his anger, Dad is it gone?
Is the pain gone, is it all gone?
This is my act of remembrance
My act of remembrance
This is my act of remembrance

Girl
All the moneys on your hip now
Need to take another trip down
Protect all mothers for they lay in the path
I can deal with the lovers
Always dealt with dreams
But Ive never known what reality means
Cause youre the sweetest thing
Ive waited for
I feel so good about you
You are always on my lookout
Sing what you are all about
Just think, youve got the power
Girl, youve got the power
Lay me down to the right side
Tie me up till it feels fine
You know the uses and youve no compromise
Put it down with the two time
I always know when it feels right
I will if you will, Im just taking my time
Cause youre the sweetest thing
Ive waited for
I feel so good about you
You are always on my lookout
Sing what you are all about
Just think, youve got the power
Girl, youve got the power
Cause youre the sweetest thing
Ive waited for
I feel so good about you
You are always on my lookout
Sing what you are all about
Just think, youve got the power
Girl, youve got the power
You are always on my lookout
Sing what you are all about
Just think, youve got the power
Girl, youve got the power

The Remembrance Of The Good
THE remembrance of the Good
Keep us ever glad in mood.
The remembrance of the Fair
Makes a mortal rapture share.
The remembrance of one's Love
Blest Is, if it constant prove.
The remembrance of the One
Is the greatest joy that's known.

Remembrance of God
Please remember God as much as you can
So that God remembers you
And keeps you safe and sound
Remembrance of God
Will merge your mind with that of God
And He will give you power to show miracles
Remembrance of God
Will take you to the paradise
And make you a friend of God
Remembrance of God
Will facilitate acquiring knowledge
And make your life smooth as silk

Remembrance Day
For our king and our country and the promise of glory
We came from kingston and brighton to fight on the front line
Just lads from the farms and boys from the cities
Not meant to be soldiers we lay in the trenches
Wed face the fighting with a smile - or so we said
If only we had known what danger lay ahead
The sky turned to grey as we went into battle
On the fields of europe young men were fallin
Ill be back for you someday - it wont be long
If I can just hold on til this bloody war is over
The guns will be silent on remembrance day
Therell be no more fighting on remembrance day
By october of 18 cambrai had fallen
Soon the war would be over and wed be returnin
Dont forget me while Im gone far away
Well it wont be long till Im back there in your arms again
One day soon - I dont know when
You know well all be free and the bells of peace will ring again
The time will come for you and me
Well be goin home when this bloody war is ended
The guns will be silent on remembrance day
Well all say a prayer on remembrance day
On remembrance day - say a little prayer
On remembrance day
Well the guns will be silent
Therell be no more fighting
Oh well lay down our weapons
On remembrance day

Lookout Joe
A hip drag queen and a side-walkin street wheeler,
Comin down the avenue.
Theyre all your friends, youll come to love em
Theres a load of em waitin for you.
Lookout joe, youre comin home.
Old times were good times,
Old times were good times.
Remember millie from down in philly?
She took my brain and forgot my name.
The woman you were with was about the same
She took your money and left town.
Lookout joe, youre comin home.
Old times were good times,
Old times were good times.
Glory hallelujah!
Will I lay my burden down?
Singin on the streets around:
Look at that crazy clown.
Remember bill from up on the hill?
A cadillac put a hole in his arm.
But old bill, hes up there still,
Havin a ball rollin to the bottom.
Lookout joe, youre comin home.
Old times were good times,
Old times were good times.

Just Sail Along!
Life is like a Sea
Make no excuse nor plea
Just be on the lookout, when you float
Waves that touch the verge of your boat
Everything will go on as per the Plan
Well, not yours nor mine
But as per the Creator of the clan
Well, that means Everything will be fine
Slower or faster, time moves on
World knows of none who has won
Destiny chooses the best story
That shall be part of History
Go on and be there where you belong
All it takes is, just sail along!

Jaan
Dear Jaan
Do you know what Jaan means?
It means a lot to me
That may be your guess!
But do you really know?
Jaan means (my) soul!
And do you know what soul is?
It is the mind-particle!
And you know what mind is?
Mind consists of mind-particle
And its glow!
And do you know what glow is?
It is the thinnest layer of mass!
The so-called empty space!
And do you know how big it is?
Mind-shine is so big although it contains
Measurable mass of tiniest matter - mind-particle
It's hard to find mind-particle's trace!
So now you see
Now it seems now and then to me
You are the closest thing to me!
As if the two of us are lost in empty space
Joining together as one
And forever having fun!

Talking To 'them
talking to 'them' has become a burden
just lately
i notice it and my mind travels along the paths
of the streams of its own consciousness
totally detached from every word that
is said...
i look at my heart and feel the running of the river
in my veins
blood flooding in the fields of my mind
i am amazed at this
opportunity of not having to need anybody
to make me think
deeply....
i rise above society now like i have new wings to fly
what they say do not affect me
how i live is my own
lookout
where i go, i go
where i intend to stay and rest and be there
i decide....
i am my own man now and i do not mind what is in store for me.
i guess, this is it.
my life, my decision
my destiny, my own action.

Death means Love means
Death means freedom
Love means pain
Which would you choose?
Death means rest peacefully
Love means restless motion
Which would be comfortable?
Death means life
love means death to the heart
Which one would you want?
Death means everlasting happiness
Love means confusion
Which would be more rich?
Death means rejoice with loved ones
Love means losing someone
Which would be better?
Death means peaceful dreams for forever
Love means fear of nightmares
Which would you perfer?

Every Living Thing Barring Mother Nature
They may be very famous people and leave their footprints in the sands of time
And their legends may live on for centuries and even outlive the poet's rhyme
But their fame won't live on forever though them the masses celebrate
For every living thing barring Mother Nature has on it set a time date.
Every living thing barring Mother Nature will eventually go into decay
And even from history's pages be lost and forgotten one day
Suppose that's what makes all things equal and whether we are buried or burn
Mother Nature is there to receive us and to her bosom we'll return.
All of my best years behind me and I've lived most of my time span
Less than two years short of sixty soon I will be an old man
Every day nearer the last day that is the end for us all
To us then it will not matter if the living our names won't recall.
Every living thing barring Mother Nature must bow to old father time
And though the achievements of some great people may outlive the great poet's rhyme
Their fame has on it a time date it has often been said before
That only herself Mother Nature will live on forever more.

The remembrance of the heart is better than the remembrance of the head.
Quatrain #382 - God is a robber and a thief of love.......
God is a robber and a thief of love Who always tries to steal our heart
being the One, in remembrance of Whom, can’t for long keep us apart.
But it is we who become so forgetful of our eternal relationship with Him
that He uses our trials and temptations as means for us to remember Him.

Aurora
Like a fairy with flowers in her hair,
I possess sweet remembrance of her.
In the coolness of the September air,
Strains of melancholic chords I do hear,
And though I might not know what,
Yet something may have changed,
For I possess sweet remembrance of her,
And the emblem of her beauty caresses my heart,
Like the fluttering of birds' wings in the cool air.
Yes, like Aurora with flowers in her hair,
I possess sweet remembrance of her,
And her fragrance follows my path.
