I like rainy days and Ibsen plays and lonesome lullabies
Long walks and funny talks and folks that don't tell lies
I like hound dogs and yule logs and films that make me cry
Crescent moons and show tunes and monarch butterflies
I like sunsets and Mookie Betts and Rome before the fall
Short naps and ginger snaps and pickup basketball
I like hay bales and mountain trails and comfy old shoes
Warm smiles and sundials and women just like you
I got nothing planned
So take my hand
And let's talk about you
Maybe, you and me
Can find something to do
by Richard W. Bray

Happy and laffy
And healthy and whole
Vibrant and lovely
In body and soul
Jump on my shoulders
I'll lift up your world
The best of creation
A kindhearted girl
I'll be your servant
I'll be your clown
Don't ever stop laughing
Don't ever get down
Jump on my shoulders
I'll lift up your world
The best of creation
A kindhearted girl
Horrors and hopeless
Life gets so cold
Warm up my world
With a hand I can hold
Jump on my shoulders
I'll lift up your world
The best of creation
A kindhearted girl

The good thing was I knew
I wasn't good enough for you
As your love for me grew
There was nothing left to do
I crawled away from your skirt
My digression was overt
Digging deeper in the dirt
I could never stop your hurt
The good thing was I knew
I could never love you true
I didn't have the will to stop
Until our love was on top
Now I'm a silly stupid fool
And my carelessness was cruel
The good thing was I knew
I wasn't good enough for you

Bless God that we catch faint glimpses of his brighter Paradise from occasional Heavens here.
–Emily Dickinson
Her, a bed, a book and me
I kissed her goodnight
And then I put her to sleep
Her, a bed, a book and me
On occasional nights
Doggie makes three
Her, a bed, a book and me
An extraordinary poem–
McCarthy's Suttree
Her, a bed, a book and me
A universe of love
And eternity
Her, a bed, a book and me
The greatest pleasures
Are actually free
by Richard W. Bray

I told you I was poor
But you don't want my money
I told you I'm a maniac
You said I'm really funny
I told I was old
You said you think I'm wise
I told I was ugly
You said you like my eyes
I told you I was boring
You said boring's underrated
I told you I was crazy
You said I'm complicated
My jalopy broke down
You said we could bike it
I told you I'm a pervert
You said that's how you like it
I told you I was dumber
Than a box full of wood
You said that deep inside
You know I'm really good
I try to scare you off
Cuz I'm fragile and I break
I could never handle
Another heartache
Nothing seems to work
You're impossible to shake

Like a princess and a peon
Like a duchess and a pawn
They all look at me and you
They don't know what's going on
Like an ocean and puddle
Like a mountain and a hill
Everybody sees the difference
And their angry hearts get ill
Nobody understands
No one else could ever see
What you ever found attractive
In lowly lonesome little me
If you wanna spend your time
With such an ordinary guy
Fortune smiled in my direction
Don't make no sense to wonder why
by Richard W. Bray

Earth's the right place for love:
I don't know where it's likely to go better.
–Robert Frost
Got my feet on the ground
Looking at the stars
Crazy billionaires
Wanna fly away to Mars
Got my feet on the ground
Staring life in the face
Got oodles of compassion
For the human race
Got my feet on the ground
The body is the mind
No more wasted days
With my head in my behind
Got my feet on the ground
Got my head in the game
A flower is a flower
By any other name
Got my feet on the ground
Got my eye on you
Wubba dubba dubba
Woopty doopty do

Laughter like a desert spring
Perfection like a flower
Smile like a meteor
Shelter like a tree
Spirit like a forest
Brilliance like a star
Endurance like a mountain
Mystery like the sea
Refreshment like a rainstorm
Compassion like the sun
Beauty like a gemstone
Out of reach for me
by Richard W. Bray
