Every Little Mood I’m In

Every Little Mood I’m In

Every little mood I'm in
colors every place I've been.

Spilling paint and splashing tints
imagination's subtle hints

of what fortunes soon will come
pretending that it's already done.

Tomorrows will all be like yesterday
painted in the very same way.

On they'll go and on and on
drudging on as they've begun,

and hope bleeds out like runny ink,
and I won't notice unless I think.

The paint for tomorrow is in my hand
the canvas white, clear on it's stand.

The colors will be fresh, the picture new.
It might be green, or pink, or blue.

Welcome

Welcome

If you like to dance or fly,
take a seat by my side.
If you like to dream or play,
Come. Open up your ears today.

I have caught a story
that's itching to be free.
I have caught a story,
so now, it belongs to me!

Maybe it is magic
or maybe it's really true.
How do you catch a story?
Well, that is up to you.

Do you have a pocket?
a hat? or sock or shoe?
If you're in your pjs, then,
your ears will have to do!
