The Stars Are Bleeding
​
​
The houses line the street
That parallels the creek
Brick and stone and wood
Within folks go about
Their lives, though some without
Family or food
​
An arch stands in a field
Beneath its partial shield
A worn flag suspends
Like countless ribbons sits
The yellow grass in this
Park for veterans
​
Three sacred colors shine
With setting sun behind
Patriotic show
The stars appear to bleed
From solar red, and feed
Faded stripes below
​
Throughout this struggling town
Dead soldiers can be found
On signs that adorn
Street lights with their faces
So no one erases
Loved ones who are mourned
​
Who sent them off to die?
And maybe tell us why
Things here haven’t changed
Of others, we are scared
The only things we share
Are sadness and pain

Here comes a man with the sun in his eyes

Been burned to the crisp

Been thrown to the side

Here comes a man with the sun in his eyes

3:09 minutes of immediate state of mind transformational lifting upwards
here's a segment :
Dragonfly out in the sun, you know what I mean, don't you know
Butterflies all havin' fun, you know what I mean
Sleep in peace when day is done, that's what I mean
And this old world is a new world
And a bold world
For me
For me
Stars when you shine
You know how I feel
Scent of the pine
You know how I feel
Oh, freedom is mine
And I know how I feel
It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life
It's a new dawn - by Michael Buble'
DONAVAN sings
"HurdyGurdy Man"
here's a segment :
Thrown like a star in my vast sleep
I opened my eyes to take a peek
To find that I was by the sea
Gazing with tranquility
'Twas then when the Hurdy Gurdy Man
Came singing songs of love
Then when the Hurdy Gurdy Man
Came singing songs of love
Histories of ages past
Unenlightened shadows cast
Down through all eternity
The crying of humanity
'Tis then when the Hurdy Gurdy Man
Comes singing songs of love
Then when the Hurdy Gurdy Man
Comes singing songs of love - by Donavan
