Mishmash Squish-Squash
Mishmash, squish-squash,Dancers dancing, diners posh,People singing, playing drums,Words a plenty, others hum. Tired limbs, feet sore,Not aware of what’s in store.Rainbows ending, lies a plenty,Faith in God, they ain’t got any. True love forsake,Trust in God they will not take.Having fun, so what’s at stake?Sincerity they truly fake. Time’s short, don’t snort,Mocking God is not … Continue reading Mishmash Squish-Squash

Join in the bands, and raise your hands,And stand your ground, and take … Continue reading ‘Tis The Season

No purpose or directionSeems to be found.Just existing,Putting in their time. Sleep, awake, eat, play.What you going to do today?Same old, same old.Not much new. Same old patternsCome into … Continue reading It’s Sad
