Mother with Holy Child
Cross the wilderness wild
Joseph on to proclaim
Census calling their name
Carry through the sand
Savior of all the land
Arrive at Bethlehem near
Find no vacancy here
Yonder stable is there
For the manger shall bare
Soon the bells will ring
Jesus Christ is King

She thougth he looked good in black. He preferred white, that was him.
Gray, it appeared, was a good compromise, charcoal every now and then.
He liked to read science books, love stories were more her style.
And so they settled on watching teevee, movies every once in a while.
He like to disco, bright flashing lights, you feel the bass in your bones.
She preferred ballet, toe shoes and tights. Where was this compromise going?
Won't you waltz with me baby tonight, 'cause the rhythm we're finding is three quarters time,
And the song keeps on playing, and bodies are ;'swaying, all I am saying is I'm
Gonna waltz with you baby tonight.
Thai was her favorite cuisine, his favorite was Mexican.
Most k long walks on the beach sounded just perfect to her.
Up in the mountains appealed more to him, so they never went much anywhere.
He liked it sultry, like sex standing up, she liked to keep it discrete
Where, in their eye, could they find compromise? Where could their two minds meet?
Won't you waltz with me baby tonight, 'cause the rhythm we're finding is three quarters time,
And the song keeps on playing, and bodies are ;'swaying, all I am saying is I'm
Gonna waltz with you baby tonight.

In a tiny hotel room in New York City
I got in my head to go overseas
I needed to see if Erin was as pretty
As all the songs would make you believe
I left the hot of North Carolina
That spring was pushing 100 degrees
I don’t think I’ve ever seen anything finer
Than Ireland’s coast looming out of the sea
And as the plane was touching down
Though the clouds were all around
Still I could see the fabulous green
And hares on the runway
In old Dublin town
To Wicklow we travelled in search of lost kin
On that front we had no great luck
We met fine people at each little inn
From Carlow all the way down to Cork
And as we roved over to the west shore
To Dingle and Galway and many towns more
Always enchanted by the luminous green
And sheep stopping traffic
Near the vast Cliffs of Moher
‘Twas the perfect way to finally go
To the land that kept calling me in
And don’t think I shall ever forget
all sights that I saw or the people I met
And the white hares all hopping as my plane touched down
In the grass on the runway in old Dublin town.

Crackers for Christmas
Can I interest you in a swing set
Can I interest you in a new ball
Maybe you can find some things that
You might like at the Four Seasons Mall
Or wherever the elves have been shopping this year
To help Santa fill up his sack
He wants to fill you with holiday cheer
But all that you’ll ask for is crackers
We’ve been so excited for our first toddler Christmas
But all she’ll let us buy for her is Wheat Thins and Triscuits
Can I interest you in a cheddar
Can I interest you in a gruyere
Maybe you’d like to sample some feta
Maybe you’d like a grape juice to pair
Or whatever a sommelier would recommend
We place at the top of your stack
Of teetering, tottering, seemingly endlessly
Growing assortment of crackers
We’ve been so excited for our first toddler Christmas
But all she’ll let us buy for her are cheese, wine, and Triscuits
Some day we’ll teach you that Christmas is less about
Getting your favorite stuff
Crackers are wonderful, no one denies it
But Christmas is more about love
We’ve been so excited for our first toddler Christmas
Where in exchange for crackers, we get
Tiny toddler kisses
We’ve been so excited for our first toddler Christmas
And all we’d ever ask of her are tiny toddler kisses
And big toddler kisses
Big, juicy, wet toddler kisses

She was restless
So insecure
She said “I couldn’t do that
I’ve never done that before”
Had her head in the clouds,
And her eyes on the door
Always silently hoping
She could be something much more
What are you waiting for
Go, go
You could imagine
The worst that could happen, but
You’ll never know until you
Go, go
Take a deep breath
Make that first step
Learn to believe in yourself and—go
She was walking
Uncharted road
Couldn’t be any farther
From everything she’d ever known
Yeah, she was lonely
Yeah, the rain poured down
But that “used to be” whispering
Voice was screaming out loud
Don’t you turn back around
Go, go
Don’t just imagine
The worst that could happen, cause
You’ll never know until you
Go, go
Take a deep breath
Make that first step
Learn to believe in yourself and—go

Wasn’t always easy, baby
But loving you ain’t hard
Look at the memories we’ve made
From this love of ours
And even if we took it back
Back to the start
I know we’d keep loving on
What we got’s forever strong
Every kiss every cry
I’d do it all over with you
Every dance every fight
I’d do it all over with you
Start it all over again
By the side of my very best friend
I know I would
If I could
Do it over
Do it all over with you
Who knows bout tmrw
If it ended tonight
I could truly say
I spent everyday
Loving the love of my life

On the morning your train
Made its way
Heard your steps on the stone
Felt the sting felt the numb
Felt the cold
Like the pain was my own
Did you hear it, the moan
Of the dove?
Did you notice the frost
In the blessings
of all that you’ve found
Did you sense what you’d lost?
spring roses
faded so soon
pray that we’ve lived
‘Fore we died
Flamed out, you’re
Shooting the moon
Don’t say that you never tried
Where the embers of fires
Long gone cold
linger on in the sky
There remains still
The memories of smoke
Gives no truth to the lie
Saw your name in the
Registry once
Hope your still say your prayers
I imagine you still stay up late
children sleeping upstairs
spring roses
faded so soon
pray that we’ve lived
‘Fore we died
Flamed out, you’re
Shooting the moon
Don’t say that you never tried
Let’s just say that the
Stars had their plans
Let’s just say that we knew
Let’s just say that we
Reached out our hands
some bright heaven’s not for you

A Minor Waltz
Kissed your love away
burn yesterday
Hand sublime, and then
...heal her love
Stormy interplay,
your whisper lay...at the end
Drawn to heaven's light,
invoked a dove
Kissing dew, the sun at home
Scintillant shine
Upon winging where we roam
With a sigh, we intertwine
In the gloaming light
Lost in empty eyes
Sewn in love
My dear won't you stay today
In wreaths of dew
A bloodless scene
To the country flew
Seas of wintergreen, lost in love
Quiet back, in the singing ice
Comes as no surprise
In this paradise
We're alone
In the coldest stream
Commit blushing bride
Float away
Where your roses died
Sweet mist fall upon the site
Where my dearest cried
Please chase away the light
Wild ways and countryside
Verdant lands, they're lit with gold
Like your endless soul
I've set free
To my full control

Meatless
Going meatless
Means you're eating beef less than you are right now
Meatless
Going meatless
Spare the prod, spare the cow
Can I eat fish? Whadda' you think?
Can I eat pig? What about the gelatin?
Chicken, eggs- what comes first?
Nom-nom: feedin' ya' face
Meatless
Going meatless
Means you're eating meat less than you are right now
Holy, Holy, Holy Cow
Meatless...
How do you make a Whopper without a cow? = Impossible
