Child of the Mystic Mountain

As I walk down Mystic trail,
Mountain calls me unto shadow.

For in the darkness light shadows break,
In these specks a smell of sulpher looms.

And there upon a twisted old stump I sence it,
A magic stronger than ever I felt before.

There it was before me teasing my sight ,
And driving cobwebs into my mind.

Sweeping the fog from sight,
A vision appeared to me this night.

Child of the Mytic Wood,
Gaurdian of Time and Space.

Our minds became as one,
For within this space and time .

We became one,
As one unto thee other.

Pumpkin Eyes

Looking at my garden fair, All had grown so ausome there, I had to grow a special treat, Never knew it would be neat, A pumpkin big and grand, Show to others by my hand, Special treated soil, A working I did toil. To raise myself a ausome beast, For others eyes upon to feast, But carried away on friday night, A spell I took from Bantors blight, A curse I now had placed right here, Upon my pumpkin grand and dear, For on Saturdays and moonlit nights, This pumpkins is a scary site, For if you look into it's eyes, So soon then you do realize, Now from the mortal plane you've gone, Your spirit stuck to carry on, For in the pumpkin your spirit rest, To scare all others , So do your best.

Friends

Friendships across the great divide,
Nothing kept from others hide.
For others hunger for a friend,
Upon they know it can depend.
But without a true and heartfelt plan,
This friendship here cannot stand.
With false pretence and thoughtless mind,
Seek something that they cannot find.
Of hatefullness of race and creed,
This very hour there is need.
To reach thru time from this here space,
Make new friends from anyplace.
To me right here your all my friends,
My journey starts and will not end.
Until we meet either here or there,
I'm glad I had the time to share.
To make this world a better place,
And put a smile upon your face.

DREADFUL JACK

The bleached white bones of Jack St. Clair,
Are buried beneath the basement stair.
Encased inside a small black box,
With sixteen gold and silver locks.
So why was death his dreaded fate,
In London castle 1808.
At Pony tavern in his care,
He murdered all who ventured there.
And caught he was upon his land,
With all their blood upon his hands.
So hung till dead then chopped up twice,
He now had paid the final price.
Then bleached white bones placed in a box,
And sealed forever with sixteen locks.
Then buried beneath the basement stair,
to keep his soul forever there.

My Heavenly Friends

Angels with me all the time,
This I ask you as I rhyme
Take my toils from this day,
Sooth my soul and wash away
Troubled memories in my thought,
Inside this vessel they now are not
Keep my spirit shinning bright,
As you guide from morn till night.

BANTORS CURSE

BANTORS CURSE

Mr. Bantors heartless gloom
Gut wrenching fear in every room
Not many could handle to spend the night
Most would flea due to the fright
Upon the walls come see and look
Chains with razor blades and hooks
Castrate zombies reach for meat
Knowing your their tasty treat
Mr. Bantor spiked your ale
You try to flea and to no avail
Your fear is as it's up most high
Thinking your about to die
Close your eyes and fear the worst
This insane Mr. Bantor curse
Then your realize this horrid fright
Cursed to live this every night
So come and join me, have some wine
Upon your corpse we all shall dine.

GHOST OF THE VIETNAM MEMORIAL

I can see you standing there,
Looking as you do not care
And what about you do no know,
As your feelings inside grow
I see the wonder in your eyes,
As you begin to realize
Trying to put yourself at rest,
The pounding heart inside your chest
Who is this now that you do see,
For you are looking now at me
What has brought you to my sight,
For I'm a spirit here tonight
I lead you to the marbled wall,
For you to share with one and all
And now you know me from my sight,
I saved you and others on that night
with bombs a blasting everywhere,
I showed to all that I did care
Share the memories no matter the cost,
So all that we did will never be lost
For all my brothers upon this wall,
We died for country one and all.
