The Immortal Live Unnoticed

As gently as snowflakes from the sky,
The autumn leaves do fall to the ground
The flutter in the breeze and come to rest
But they fall not with a single sound.

Once they were lively,young and green,
But unseen,unknown they began to fade
Now they lie,an admired sight,
A carpet of soft enchanting jade.

Piano Blues

Drift away into daydreams,
As the mellow harmonies sound
Whispering like a mountain spring
Lilting as the piper's song.
Soul-stirring as an opera,
Soft as the raindrops fall.
Drift away into daydreams,
As the mellow harmonies sound
And let it whisk you away..

The Coward and the Hero

She stood at the edge of an abyss,
Her face tear-stained,her mind full
Of trifling troubles and petty worries-
Loving parents and a good home she had,
Yet the iron chains of self-pity and
Selfishness gripped her mind,
Blocking out all sanity.
Escapade for herself,but leaving behind
A lifetime of sorrow and grief.
Taking a deep breath she jumped,
Not realising...
The mountains that behind her stood,
The sun that before her shone.

She stood at the edge of an abyss,
Her face tear-stained,her clothes in rags,
A father lost in war,a mother ailing,
Her yound mind scarred with wounds,
Yet acceptance,determination and
Courage reaffirmed her faith
Taking a deep breath she turned around
To admire...
The mountains that behind her stood,
The sun that before her shone.
