When One Soul Was In Both Our Thoughts

When one soul was in both our thoughts,
we were together at the bright blue ocean,
where you joyously did swim,
gave me a passionate kiss, where we did embrace,
while only the same things inspired us both;
the heaven was a kind of cobalt blue,
together we did kneel, we did pray,
together we trusted on the power of God
while we were in love with each other.

Against the dark blue of irises the sky has but a pale hue (Persian quatrain)

(After C. Louis Leipoldt)

Against the dark blue of irises the sky has but a pale hue
in times of war blood flows to the earth as it is due
and the pain and suffering that sacrifice brings
is quite dim against that left by words that are untrue.

[Reference: "Teen die blou van jakarandas is die blou van die lug maar bleek" (Against the blue of jacarandas the blue of the sky is bleak) by C. Louis Leipoldt.]

Ocean Blue

Well you took me home
And you took me back
But deep down inside
The feeling just died and i
Couldnt see why
From indigo to royal blue
I travel far but no one will do
Anytime, anyplace
Every shape every face
Brings memories of you
Blue to be blue
To be blue
Ocean blue
Blue to be blue
To be blue
Ocean blue - ocean blue
Fair weather friends might drift away
When summer ends and skies burn grey
So I walk to the ocean
Pilot these shores
Just thinking of you
Its time we kissed the clouds goodbye
From now on its strictly blue sky
Come rain and shine
The outlook is still fine
Im thinking of you
Blue to be blue
To be blue
Ocean blue
Blue to be blue
To be blue
Ocean blue - ocean blue
Blue to be blue
To be blue
Ocean blue, ocean blue
Ocean blue, ocean blue
Ocean blue, ocean blue
Ocean blue, ocean ocean
Ocean, ocean
Blue to be blue
To be blue
Ocean blue
Blue to be blue
To be blue
Ocean blue - ocean blue
I stand at the head of the queue
Theres mutinys every crew
Wishin and wonderin bout you
Ocean blue

What kind of Man is this?

What kind of Man is this?
To embrace this world with a kiss
and show to us the love of God.
What kind of Man is this?

What kind of man is this?
That betrayed You with a kiss
the Son of Man he sent to die.
What kind of man is this?

How can a man do this?
To betray You with a kiss
and sell his soul for silver coins.
What kind of man is this?

What kind of world is mine?
That condemns this Man so fine
and nails Him to a cross of wood.
What kind of world is mine?

What kind of Man is He?
Who gave His life for me
upon that cross of Calvary.
What kind of Man is He?

What kind of man are you?
To do the things you do
and turn your back upon His love.
What kind of man are you?

What kind of man am I?
That I could watch Him die
and remain unmoved by His cry.
What kind of man am I?

Oh Lord I now can see
that You have died for me
and gave Your life a sacrifice
on the Cross of Calvary.

My Lord may I tell you this?
That I've been moved by Your kiss
and come to kneel before Your cross.
My Lord may I tell you this?

Forgive me Lord I cry
that for me You had to die.
It was the only way to save
such a sinful wretch as I.

That blue sea...

The waves are splashing against the cloud mountains
I stop and listen as I take a drink from life's fountain.

The clouds roll in on me so heavily
I feel the rains presence as I hear to the roaring sea.

That blue sea that takes you in and washes you away
To somewhere you may or may not want to stay.

That blue sea that you look in for answers
that blue ocean that questions your questions

or gives you an answer within a question
That blue sea that leaves your thoughts

within its deep blue content.
That feeling it gives leaving you absent...

of what could happen as that blue sea waves.
Washing away the thoughts and emotion you felt

That blue sea that your secrets swim within
That blue sea you float in continuously

That blue sea of reality.

where the dolphins are swimming
while the sunlight is dimming.

as they swim across the blue open sea...
you realize the dolphin that you are meant to be.

Morning Glories

Let Leipoldt write about violets
which are in the field,
I have my own flower
or weed that I adore
and it’s Sunspots
that grows out of the good earth.

You can call it a pest
or a weed,
but I am nuts about the heavenly blue
full of blue flowers that creep everywhere
and push twines out in all directions

Purple cardinal climbers
that climb up everywhere
and after the rain
burst out in all directions
stays a beautiful flower to me.

Come Along To The Place I Love

Come along to the place I love,
near the ocean and sparkling clear rivers
that is lovely as paradise
or a place in one’s dreams.

Let us float in the blue lagoon,
go beneath the waterfall,
feel all of the water’s kisses
while desire rises like the golden moon.

Then let us embrace each other,
while your naked skin clings onto mine
and I experience your gentle loveliness
as we continually get closer

to the very edge of the abyss,
let us be caring and totally careless
with every kind of tender caress
with water splattering over passionate hot flesh.

Let us intertwine
and meet in the centre core
of the body’s heat
while around us the waters hiss

let this be much more than just lust,
and a kind of bliss
when we kiss and kiss,
while stars sparkles above us.

It Must Have Been At The End Of January

It must have been at the end of January
when the sun hanged high at seven in the afternoon,
when we walked together on the beach
and just before we kissed my eye caught a ship in the distance

Suddenly the ship disappeared
in beyond the blue ocean
but it was white and red
and the sun shone cobalt-blue in a bright sky.

That day has disappeared into oblivion
with the remembrance that constantly dwindles
and even that blonde girl I have forgotten,
even the expression on her face,

how lovely she had been,
how her lips felt and tasted,
even the hue of her eyes
I cannot bring back to my thoughts

and that woman has long been married,
with maybe a string of children
but I keep remembering that ship
as it rocks up and down on the waves.

Blue Sea

The clouds roll in on me so heavily
I feel the rains presence as I listen to the roaring sea.
That blue sea that takes you in and washes you away
To somewhere you may or may not want to stay.
That blue sea that you look in for answers
that blue sea that questions your questions
or gives you an answer only with question backwards
That blue sea that leaves your thoughts
within its deep blue content.
That feeling it gives leaving you absent...
of what could happen as that blue sea waves.
Washing away the thoughts and emotiond you felt
Yes Im talking hurt and pain.
That blue sea that your secrets swim within
That blue sea oyu float in continuously again and again.
That blue sea, that blue sea
That blue sea is reality.

Angelic Blue

I remember your frolics on the beach in your cavorting blue
Jumping to the heavens to touch the great wide blue
I could see your hair spring against the buoyant blue
Yet I remember best your eyes breathtakingly angelic blue

I remember your strokes against the currents of the ocean blue
Blending with the waves as you swim to the horizon blue
Then there you were to my gorging eyes in your delicately placed synthetic blue
Yet I was obsessed by your eyes tantalizingly angelic blue

I remember your smile against God's murals painted blue
As we journeyed through the continents from the Indian to the Pacific blue
Thanking the gods that merged our destinies blessed with a sapphire blue
With engraved memories of my first gaze at your eyes mesmerizingly angelic blue

I remember your toenails in their veneers glazed blue
And the shoes that followed the contours in their sporting blue
I see our evening jogs as we scan the coastline in its cascades of blue
As I glance a million times at your eyes mere perfection in angelic blue

I remember the tears that flowed during your fleeting blues
In your moments of trials and grief with your handkerchief ominously blue
I apologize for neglecting you even for a second in your teary blue
Hoping your moist getaways will soon re-embrace their glorious angelic blue

I remember the day I held your hand as sweat trickled pass your gown peroxide blue
As we gazed at our delicate creation picture-perfection of her maternal blue
We would see her grow to embrace our worlds in our paradise by the ocean blue
Even then mom you are still the winner in your eyes eternally angelic blue

I could see us in our glory years down by the Indian ocean blue
Staring at the ocean and stars in circadian motions of nature's blue
When I close my eyes I would only need you to sustain me in my heavenly blue
Your eyes my love….gaze at me for an eternity through your portals angelic blue

Powerless Surprised And Blinded

The cold winter wind cries like a child
when the black ripe spreads with devastation
as if it will find no comfort anywhere
while nature acts without mercy,
cries like a girl that has lost love
when tears glitter bright in drops of dew
as a bird is without a nest, without a companion,
there is even a yearning in the cobalt blue.

When drought devours the last grain,
when lines of dust hang red-brown full of seeds
that only blows away in the rough stormy wind,
then there is no power in all your deeds,
it is even if God is leaving you alone
while you want to cling on to His hand,
it feels if nowhere you can succeed,
there is even a yearning in the cobalt blue,

people become powerless surprised and blinded,
while they see birds comfortless on wires,
they feel as if God does not love them,
they notice despair in their wives;
there is harassment, a type of hatred
that wants to fold around every heart with darkness,
destiny strikes fatally, secretly accurate,
there is even a yearning in the cobalt blue.

Im In A Blue, Blue Mood

(orbison-melson)
Conway twitty also did a version of this with roy singing background vocals
Im in a blue blue mood
Now that youre gone away
Im in a blue blue mood
Its been a lonesome day
Im in a blue blue mood
I miss your caress
I reach out to hold you
But youre not there
Its just my blue blue mood.
Maybe, someday, yeah love will come
And stay, and things will turn
How bright, oh oh oh but for tonight
Im in a blue blue mood.
Im in a blue blue mood
Im in a blue blue mood
Im in a blue blue mood.

Kiss Me Everything! ! !

Kiss me heart and said i'love you.
Kiss me from warm your eyes rays and said all better.
Kiss me from your sweet lips i'was everything.

Kiss me from your desire was embrace by you.i'was passing yearning fogs.
Kiss me with your soft face the angel gave peace on my heart.
Kiss me the rainbow gave the colour to illustrate my dreams.

Kiss me my blue clouds will lie down all tired i'to you.
Kiss me the green leaves penetrating freshness bellows of the heart and mind.

Kiss me the wind-the blowing wind continued the long breath in the life.
Kiss me the wave of the birds wings in the branch, stamped the love and the spirit.

Kiss me the flower and was kissed by me again went through the sun and the rain.
Kiss me the river gave my warm regards to the ocean.

Kiss me the nature said to my heart sweetheart.
I kissed him through all
the life breath in the world.

Heaven Is

Heaven is a woman
Dressed in blue
And heaven is knowing
Someone who is in love with you
Heaven is a television
Left on all day
And heaven is making love
And then running away
Heaven is
Heaven is
Heaven is believing
What your eyes dont see
And heaven is christy canyon
Falling in love with me
Heaven in waking up
To be a millionaire
And heaven is spending the whole next day
Just walking on air
Heaven is
Heaven is
Heaven is
Heaven is
All these things you say and do
It doesnt mean that much to you
But all these things you said to me
The memories wont set me free
Heaven is a dream
When it wont come true
And heaven is the sky
When its always blue
Heaven is the girl
With short black hair
And heaven is a woman
With enough to spare
Heaven is
Heaven is
Heaven is
Heaven is
Heaven is
And heaven is taking a holiday
And heaven is having you here to stay
And heaven is never ever saying sorry
And heaven is as easy as abc
And heaven is your eyes when theyre always blue
And heaven is just right here with you
Heaven is
Heaven is
Heaven is

Roses Are Red Violets Are Blue

Roses are red 
Violets are blue
I've never found someone as patient
As you

Roses are red
Violets are blue
If you get lost
Then I'll look for you

Roses are red 
Violets are blue
You know I'm always sorry
When I hurt you

Roses are red 
Violets are blue
If I could 
Id turn back to when i first kissed you

Roses are red
Violets are blue
If you don't believe me
Then what else can I do 

Roses are red 
Violets are blue
Baby no one knows me 
As much as you

Roses are red 
Violets are blue
Believe I'll do anything
To get next to you

Roses are red 
Violets are blue
Tell me you still love me 
And I'll run to you 

Roses are red 
Violets are blue
You might not know
But I love you 

Roses are red
Violets are blue
The stars shine bright
But not as bright as you do 

Roses are red
Violets are blue 
If I could pick anyone
I would pick you

Roses are red 
Violets are blue
The first day I saw you 
That's when I knew

Roses are red 
Violets are blue
No one will ever love you
As much as I do 

Roses are red violets are blue 
Even if you get me mad 
I'll still be in love with you 

Roses are red 
Violets are blue
My heart skips a beat 
When I'm laying next to you

Roses are red 
Violets are blue 
If you love me 
Then show me that that love is true

Deep Blue

When sunshine is not enough
To make me feel bright
Its got me suffering in the darkness
Thats so easy come by on the road-side
Of one loong life-time
Its got me deep blue
You know Im deep blue
When you stand there, watch tired bodies
Full of sickness and pain
To show you just how helpless you really are
When you get down to the truth
It hurts me
Its got me deep blue
You know Im deep blue
When I think of the life Im living
Pray God help me; give me your light
So I can love you and understand
This repetition that keeps me here
Feeling deep blue
Its got me deep blue
You know Im deep blue

i am ' LIFE SERIES #3

'i am ' heaven
' i am' life at its birth
'i am ' a soft gentle kiss
placed upon your lips.

'i am' your desire
burning with a passionate fire.
' i am ' the arms that hold you tight
each and every passing night.
' i am ' the beauty in your eye
' i am ' the one that sees the sky.

' i am ' all that you see and hear
' i am ' all that you fear.
'i am ' running rivers and ocean tides
' i am ' the blue in the sky.

' i am ' the animals that you eat
' i am ' the springs that wash your feet
' i am' the trees
' i am ' the earth
i give you all that is ' worth'
'i am ' LIFE.

Blue Me

Blue me, blue me
Blue is the color
That fits best on me
Im blue
Just as blue as can be
Blue me, blue me
I cry
And I die
I lie awake at night
And I question why
Must it be
I can never be free
Blue me, blue me
My heart is heavy
But its empty inside
No one to love me
Or to lay down beside
Im blue
The queen of sorrow
Wears royal blue
My luck aint changin
Is it ever goin to
Im blue, oh Im blue
Why must I wear this robe of blue misery
Blue me, blue me
Ooh
This sad old feeling
Is breakin me down
No satisfaction with these blues hangin round
Lord, Im blue
Oh, Im so blue
Why cant I shake it tell me where will this end
When will I get out of this blue rut Im in
Oh, Im blue
Looks like the blues just took a liking to me
Blue me, blue me
Blue me, blue me
Blue is the color that fits best on me
Ooooh, Im blue
Im just as blue as can be
Blue me,
Blue me

This Was The Kiss

THIS THE KISS WAS REALLY SWEET.
THIS THE KISS WAS REALLY THE DESIRE.
THIS THE KISS WAS REALLY PERFECT.

THIS THE KISS REALLY WAS FULL OF YEARNING.
THIS THE KISS REALLY WAS FULL OF THE LOVE.
THIS THE KISS REALLY ENCHANTED.

THIS THE KISS WAS REALLY PASSIONATE.
THIS THE KISS REALLY MADE ME FLY.
THIS THE KISS REALLY I'WANT TO.

THIS THE KISS KILLED NOSTALGIA.
THIS THE KISS KILLED THE DEJECTED FEELING.
THIS THE KISS ELIMINATED THE FEELING OF PAIN IN THE HEART.

THIS THE KISS REMOVED THE TEARS.
THIS THE KISS WAS FULL OF THE BLESSING FROM THE LORD.

FROM THE KISS FOR THE LOVE.
FROM THE KISS TO LOYAL.
FROM THE KISS TO PRAY.

TRULY THE KISS GAVE THE COLOUR.
TRULY THE KISS NEVER WAS BORED.
TRULY THE KISS NEVER ENDED.

The Zombie

(after C Louis Leipoldt)

His skin was pulled thin
and his face was pale like that of a skeleton
and it was in my direction that he was marching,
looking cold like gravestone he was coming on.

His eyes lacked all energy of life
and his body did not look as if build out of flesh
while his legs folded out like a clasping knife
but some energy this foul thing did possess

but it had a kind of sense and sensing
which was full of evilness
although it was walking like a sleeping thing,
but it had some kind of aloofness.

It was passing under a streetlight
and I was wondering if it did from some grave crawl?
I was stunned at its strange sight
while it looked as if searching for a brawl.

Two old people at its feet did lie
where from fear they did pass out
as they were afraid to die
and a well build man in fear at it did shout

but to the square it went on its way
and did not look at me while it was passing
while children who did in the street play
in fear at it was glancing.

In the square a crowd was gathering,
and those people wanted peace,
while veterans were speaking against war and killing
and as it did approach everything did cease.

Some women did pray and others did weep
but I wanted to know who this Zombie was?
Away from it every one tried to keep
while its eyes sparkled like glass.

One elderly man shook his head
and honoured the thing that was almost dead
and I shouted: “Who is this? ”
“It’s the president, ” he replied to my dread.
