Songs on Saturday ~ Rain

By jackcollier7 on August 17, 2019 | 2 Comments

some people feel the rain, others just get wet

England, this green and pleasant land, where it rains a lot.

Different from the parts of America, where it’s dusty and hot.

Clouds came floating unbidden into my life, not to carry the life-giving rain, but to hide the beautiful rainbow of love.

Please listen responsibly.

singing in the rain is not my thing

I couldn’t carry a tune in a bucket

the beautiful pain of longing

~

man is nothing without love

but love hurts, love is pain

rainbows only follow the rain

dawn’s ephemeral early light

only follows the dark of night

wanting, needing, bringing

the beautiful pain of longing

let her go, release the dove

Relationships are more important than egos

By jackcollier7 on November 30, 2015 | 3 Comments

Apologising does not always mean that you’re wrong and the other person is right. It just means that you value your relationship more than your ego.

P1020149

Never ruin an apology with an excuse. ~ Benjamin Franklin

P1020117

An apology is the superglue of life, it can fix just about anything. ~ Lynn Johnstone

P1030609

Right actions in the future are the best apologies for bad actions in the past. ~ Tryon Edwards

P1030482

I’ve looked at clouds from both sides now, from up and down and still somehow, it’s cloud illusions I recall, I really don’t know clouds at all. Joni Mitchell

Rainbow3

Be thou the rainbow in the storms of life. The evening beam that smiles the clouds away, and tints of tomorrow with prophetic ray. ~ Lord Byron

the magic miracle of a double rainbow

Pure White Light Disassembled

~

Violet, indigo, blue, green, yellow, orange, red

Can’t go to school

staying home in bed

~

Every Good Boy Deserves Favour

It’s chicken pox

and I have a fever

~

Mensa, mensae, mensae, mensam…,

I must be ill

Mom called me ‘poorly lamb’

~

The square on the hypotenuse…,

Doctor’s coming soon

I hope for happy news

It’s nice outside today

I want to go and play

~

Je suis, vous etes, il est, elle est, ils sont…,

Mom’s wise to that

back door is locked

~

Amo, amas, amat, amamus, amatis, amant

So I want to go and play

and Mom says I can’t

Oh well, I’ll just stay here and chant

~

I hate conjugating Latin verbs
