    With Eyes Wide Open

    With eyes wide open,
    She came into this world,
    With eyes wide open,
    That little baby girl.
    With eyes wide open.
    She had to see it all.
    She wouldn’t miss a thing,
    Though she was oh so small.
    With wonder in everything,
    She embraced this world with eyes wide open!
    With eyes wide open. . .


    With eyes wide open,
    On his new wife,
    With eyes wide open,
    He vowed his life.
    With eyes wide open.
    He knew that life was rough,
    So many did not last.
    But he was tough,
    And could forgive the past.
    He wanted to share his life with eyes wide open!
    With eyes wide open. . .


    With eyes wide open,
    And steps unafraid,
    With eyes wide open,
    And strength that will not fade.
    With eyes wide open.
    I see beyond this place,
    Where there is no skin,
    Where there is no race.
    I see beauty within,
    When I look for something more with eyes wide open!
    With eyes wide open. . .


    With eyes wide open,
    Walking hand in hand,
    With eyes wide open,
    We will make our stand.
    With eyes wide open.
    Singing Amazing Grace,
    Come what may,
    One day we’ll see Your face.
    All else will fade away,
    With awe we’ll meet eternity with eyes wide open!
    With eyes wide open. . . Ohhh, yeah!
    With eyes wide open. . .

    He found himself grinning down at her exasperated expression. "You have problems with authority."
    She tossed her head, her eyes sparkling with mischief. Waves of dark hair spilled around her face and down her shoulders. "Fortunately, I don't acknowledge anyone as an authority, so there's no problem whatsoever."

    Midnight's Prayer

    Now I lay me down to sleep,
    Please Lord, let it not be deep.
    I fear this burning in my leg.
    Let me survive this night, I beg.

    For this tiny thing, should it move,
    Would my mortality then prove.
    Should it reach my heart or lung,
    That would be my last song sung.

    But if the brain it did breach,
    It'd steal life, limb, or speech.
    I'm too young for this thing they say.
    But it didn't hear, or just came anyway.

    I suffer the shot, take the pill,
    So please Lord, don't let it kill.
    Let me rest, Dear God, sleep just a bit.
    Guard my soul, but please don't take it.

    Default To Break The Heart Of A Bard's Best Friend

    To Break The Heart Of A Bard's Best Friend


    To break the heart of a bard's best friend,
    Will earn you shame that will never end!
    Such a horrible unchivalrous end,
    To break the heart of a bard's best friend!

    If knight you'd be, on bended knee, sworn unto the crown;
    Or soldier man, rattan in hand, happily unbound;
    Or be your sport, a different sort, artisan or clown;
    Stay ye true. Words can't undo; deceit will bring you down.
    A Lady's heart, such a precious part, now shattered on the ground.
    And a cheating knave, who can't behave, for no shelter will be found.

    To break the heart of a bard's best friend,
    Will earn you shame that will never end!
    Such a horrible unchivalrous end,
    To break the heart of a bard's best friend!

    No realm is free, of minstrelsy, my song I will not hide.
    Word of your deeds, like wild seeds, will spread far and wide.
    And many songs, listing your wrongs, I'll share at fireside.
    While you might pose, the Lady knows, the truth you'd not confide.
    So hide your face, go in disgrace, your sight I'll not abide.
    And no reprieve, will I leave, for a cheater who has lied.

    To break the heart of a bard's best friend,
    Will earn you shame that will never end!
    Such a horrible unchivalrous end,
    To break the heart of a bard's best friend!

    Son of Talonvale, will you bewail, at this cruel twist of fate?
    Your silence bought, and actions wrought, these words that I state.
    Your shame is earned, the Lady burned, just a passing lust to sate?
    You foolish man, you'll understand, even be it way too late.
    That the bard's best friend, you should not offend, nor cheat when you date.
    I'll bring you fame, and spread your name, in shame that won't abate.

    To break the heart of a bard's best friend,
    Will earn you shame that will never end!
    Such a horrible unchivalrous end,
    To break the heart of a bard's best friend!

    Dyeing For Fun



    Fill the pots, light the fires,
    As you mind fills with color desires.
    A woolen quilt for my bed,
    A fairytale you’ll affix with thread.

    Gather the plants, mordant the cloths.
    Close the screens to keep out the moths.
    That was done, finished the night before.
    Is it enough? Better mordant more.

    Add some herbs, simmer the pot.
    Don’t let that indigo get too hot.
    Onion skin yellow, henna brown,
    Gently push all the fabric down.

    Cochineal for a red with pink hue.
    Bugs all crushed, right on cue.
    Golden Rod, Osage Orange wood,
    Even more of the yellows, good!

    Madder Root, a rusty red,
    Then pluck Cosmos from their bed.
    Steaming silk, flowers small,
    Release your color, one and all.

    Dip once, or over-dye,
    Then hang in the sun to dry.
    Rinse well, and dry again,
    Admire your work with a happy grin.

    Default Druid’s Vigil


    Only a man, on a solitary path
    Walks through the night
    In total faith
    Through the forest, err he go
    From the North he enters the grove

    Sweeping the circle with his staff
    Lighting candles along the way
    Smudging as he goes
    North to east, to south, then to west
    To stand in the North and await the rest

    Out of the wood they slowly came
    By ones and twos, they go within.
    Encircling the altar
    Facing the East, they start to pray
    All through the night awaiting the first ray

    As the sky begins to brighten
    They all rejoice
    Yule has come once again
    The sun beaten the dark away
    And the light stays longer every day

    Out to the wood they slowly go
    By ones and twos they depart
    Leaving the altar
    Knowing that they have done their part
    They turn and leave with light hart

    Sweeping the circle with his staff
    Dousing candles along the way
    Smudging as he goes
    West to south, to east, then to north
    To stand and await as they go forth

    Only a man, on a solitary path
    Walks through the night
    In total faith
    Through the forest, err he go
    Into the North he exits the grove

    Baronial Border War

    Our land! Your land! Com’ on out and fight!
    Archer, fencer, soldier; Squire or knight,
    To arms! To field! Time to prove your might!

    Artisans and crafters, your creations to display.
    Wonders or blunders, bring them anyway!
    Each count, a war point may just win the day!

    To War! To War!
    Hear our battle cry!
    To War! To War!
    Fly the banners high!
    It’s time for War!
    Baronial Border War!

    So hitch up the horses. How many under the hood?
    Pack up the tents and head out to the wood.
    Come prepared to fight. Is your skeeter slayer good?

    Late night, long night, dancing in the dark,
    A drunken revel spread all through out the park.
    Come for the war, but stay for a lark!

    To War! To War!
    Hear our battle cry!
    To War! To War!
    Fly the banners high!
    It’s time for War!
    Baronial Border War!

    Roofsit

    No more blood!
    No more bruises!
    We all give,
    So no one loses.

    The abuse must end.
    The pain must stop.
    The circle be broken.
    Not another drop!

    Give a dollar,
    Give a dime.
    Give a call,
    Stop a crime.

    Every cent goes,
    To help the abused,
    Those neglected,
    And those misused.

    Call and donate,
    To the Roofsit.
    Show those kids,
    We give a s**t!

    Calling the Wind

    Blow, blow Eastern Wind
    Blow into my mind
    Remind me I’m a child again
    Release this stress, unwind

    Blow, blow Southern Wind
    Blow into my heart
    Drumbeat resound within
    Family that will never part

    Blow, blow Western Wind
    Chill me to the bone
    I’m not ready, won’t give in
    Don’t want to walk alone

    Blow, blow Northern Wind
    Blow into my soul
    Sing the songs of my kin
    Fill me, make me whole

    Blow, blow Changing Wind
    Spin me round the wheel
    The circle without end
    Now it’s time to heal

    Blow, blow Spirit Wind
    Dance through my life
    Bless me, family and friend
    Dance us beyond this strife

    (For Lew Thayer, Judy Kirk, and Teresa Mapes – You will be missed.)


    Walk On


    You walked this earth for but a while;
    A youthful heart and ready smile.
    But now you must walk on.

    You danced and you sang;
    You laughed standing in the rain.
    But now you must walk on.

    We will miss you oh so dear,
    And with all our might try to hold you near.
    But now you must walk on.

    Safe journeys my friend.
    Know that this is not the end.
    But now you must walk on.

    Peace is beyond that Western door;
    And there is rest on that distant shore.
    But now you must walk on.

    One day we’ll dance and sing,
    Laugh again like nobody’s watching.
    But now you must walk on.

    In time we all must walk on.

    ~Silverhawk
