Daughter of Spring



Rising up from frozen winter ash

Dancing leap upon soft green grass

She shakes off the cold winters of yesteryear

Sweet dear

So kind of you to visit

Please stay awhile

Play among rainbow butterflies

In the cool deep green forest shrubs

Surround Her

Sweet Clara

Dear sweet daughter of spring

Golden hair wildly waving in wind

Dancing and singing ringing in Spring

A new season begins

This day, hear her joy & warmth

Wrap your arms & love this day

Warm light filters through new leaves overhead

Smiling brightly in new spring sun

Rays of light wash her face

Spring has begun!

Once, Fluttering clumsy jump starts and stops

Now graceful rhythm to her dance

Sunshine smiles on her face

her freckled nose from sun’s sweet kisses

Nobody misses old man winter

Lay him down to dance on his grave

Sweet Princess

We love you dearly

Please, Oh Sweet stay awhile

Have a cup o' tea

Let us drink in this new spring together,


Daughter of Spring

The Imperial Dream Machine (No Dream Escape)



Royal Blue; A royal blue dream of you
Featuring: The Imperial Dream Machine
Providing more wishes and dreams then you ever did see
White plastic noise, broken toys
The choking sounds of time & rust
The changing tune of disease Mistrust
Imperial Dream Machine
Royal blue, these dreams of you
The space between these empty sheets;
Grey bars & white waste
No Dream Escape
The Imperial Dream Machine
Imperial Chills
The Imperial Chill Inside
Why ask Why?
No dream escape
Royal Pain
A blue, frozen, silent chase
Frozen steps, slow-motion-still
Leaves fall, faces turn
All roads lead to nowhere.
And Faces still.
No Dream Escape
It is an imperial dream quake
Dreams break
Golden seam rips apart
In the space between
A stillness newly awakens
A Forlorn Sorrow Cry
Why ask why?
Torture devices clamp in place
No Dream Escape
The Imperial Dream Machine
Provides more wishes and dreams
Then you ever did see.

No dreams escape.
