American Skies

   Have you ever seen so many wonders ?

Snowy Mount McKinley under the Alaska skies

Mount Saint Elias, majestic Rocky Mountains 

Wildcat Mountain of White County in Georgia

and all those grandiose skies above them

from British Columbia to New Mexico, so different

and as far as the Oregon and Idaho skies

Utah and Arizona skies as well, rainbow alike

mirroring nature as if the world were Amazonia only

a wishful thinking but yes, just stand for nature !!

   Babe, my babe, you're my glory, glory of love

Have a great ride, our dreams must come true

rock the day, rock the night, shoot for stars

We're furious and fast with a need for speed

with a need for love even more, our glorious love

Ride, ride fast across our beloved America

and love me tender, my babe, oh, glory of love !!

   We're camping for a while in Grand Canyon

at the side of the Colorado River in Arizona

Nights are splashed with shimmering stars

days showing skies playing a heavenly music

to the tunes of Chopin's polonaises and waltzes

Skies differ from the very blue to rainbow alike

constantly on the move, slower or faster, rhythmic

Numerous hawks adding to this their own music

and of course we ourselves, in our spasms of love

which fly up the sky like those hawks are doing

   Babe, my babe, you're my glory, glory of love

Have a great ride, our dreams must come true

rock the day, rock the night, shoot for stars

We're furious and fast with a need for speed

with a need for love even more, our glorious love

Ride, ride fast across our beloved America

and love me tender, my babe, oh, glory of love !!

   We're leaving yet for another long ride

through vast spaces of American land

as always under the magic and magnetic skies

with all their splendid repertoire of music

from Chopin to Beethoven's Appassionata

from a country music to a modern pop & rock

Days are a ride, nights are passionate love

Join us whoever you are and as a reward

you shall join the stars on the nightly sky

as yet another star, perhaps the brightest one

   Babe, my babe, you're my glory, glory of love

Have a great ride, our dreams must come true

rock the day, rock the night, shoot for stars

We're furious and fast with a need for speed

with a need for love even more, our glorious love

Ride, ride fast across our beloved America

and love me tender, my babe, oh, glory of love !!

   Traveling all the way from fabulous California 

to magic New Jersey perhaps, we don't care

bathing' lovingly in the Sun on the way

with our car speeding on the speedway

under American skies tributing Stars and Stripes 

from Idaho via Nebraska to the Florida's skies

Sleeping yet under the great Oklahoma skies

and the Mississippi skies, catching stars

staying overnight under so many other skies

Finally arriving in Miami, basked in the Sun

   Babe, my babe, you're my glory, glory of love

Have a great ride, our dreams must come true

rock the day, rock the night, shoot for stars

We're furious and fast with a need for speed

with a need for love even more, our glorious love

Ride, ride fast across our beloved America

and love me tender, my babe, oh, glory of love !!

 

Children of Universe

   A handsome man with a blond shag and a hat in his hands

kneeled in a chapel alongside a busy highway

He looked at enormous image of the Holly Virgin

and having her as a witness he prayed aloud

fervently, with dampened eyes and a drop of tear

expressing his outmost love to a woman he seemed to have lost

Images of all the good times he had with her

swirled through his mind like fast moving winds

   ‘ I am your hunter of stars, no red lights can stop me

a hunter catching most beautiful, youthful stars

and placing them on a starry necklace, a symbol of love

to shine on your neck looking like that of a ballet swan

a necklace with the emerald alike sparkling cosmic rays

being a symphony of all love we have expressed so far

a theatrical play Romeo and Juliet alike, full of drama

a heavenly comedy as much, with plentiful of carefree laugh

   You are my virgin of all times I am falling for

rising like a phoenix any time I think of you

towards the Nevada skies high above the Silver State 

disappearing then somewhere there among stars

I am a hunter of stars indeed, my darling, raging on fire

and I shall find you one day and won’t let you go

even if I had to fly through the fiery starry balls

and into the abyss alike Black Hole, risking entrapment

   We are children of the Universe, you and me, forever

you a woman, me a man, longing to each other

Perhaps you are gone for now, you my Big Bang

but I don’t believe a second you won’t come back

and I shall see you back coming to me with a lightning

cos we are destined to each other, sooner or later

I believe it and I pray for it, here in this Chapel of God

here, before Face of Our Lady, the most holly of all

   It is a quiet calm after the thunderstorm right now

and only rain is sipping still, sounding a beat of music

to the Beethoven's Appassionata in Ohio skies

and I was just dancing in the rain knowing you shall watch

before I came into this Chapel of God to pray

No, there shall never be rivers in the wasteland

but phosphorescent harvest for both of us

cos we are children of Universe in the glory of love

   Yes, I am a hunter of the stars for you, my darling

on my starship to the very ends of the Universe

seeking you till I shall find you, with a thunder

gifting you with a necklace and rings of stars, diamond alike

lettin' the nights and days roll like in a ballet musical

The Phantoms of the Ghost shall return to their caves, indeed 

Oh, hallelujah, hallelujah, sing the chorus of angels

sing the elegy of a man loving a woman most dear to his heart !!

   I am your painter and a photographer with a silver beard

portraying all your angelic charms with my heart

as if you were a woman with a harp and a trumpet in your hand

a violin, a saxophone and a synthesizer at your side 

sending sweetest ever music of angelic dimensions

through the masterful 3D canvas of the sky

and catching on the way all the sensual tastes of any witnesses

sending us plentiful kisses and wishes of the best

   Come, come back to me, shine like angel you are

shatter me, put me on fire, let me dance the way you love

cos we are really destined to each other, a ballet of love

and you shall realize it sooner or later, our ballet of life

You had ascended thunderously like a fiery phoenix 

and you shall descend triumphantly like a phoenix

Together again for all times to come, my darling 

cos we are children of Universe, united in sweet love ‘

   A tear dropped yet again from his dampened eyes

which he closed momentarily to suppress his emotions

He felt someone came up and kneeled next to him

It felt as if a whirlwind of mysterious air danced a tango

the tango of love he used to dance with the woman he loved

He opened his eyes and could not believe what he saw

his beloved woman alike Holly Virgin was kneeling side by side

and looked at him lovingly, knowing she came home

   They kissed passionately each other in a way lovers do

said farewell to Saint Mary in the chapel, the holiest of all

and holding each other heartily entwined in their arms

went outside to a red colored, fiery Lamborghini

They got in and drove up the highway towards Rocky Mountains

and the Colorado skies embracing the mountains

They, the hunters of stars, woven of their love

They, the children of Universe, finally united in love

Final Reckoning

   ' It seems I'm rising to paradise on shiny days

but at nights I'm falling down cruel eye of abyss

Days are beautiful, I'm enjoying the best of life

nights are awful, I'm screaming in a horror house

Why? I completely don't understand why

please explain this to me, my dear enchanter '

   She was sitting on a bench in a crowded park

overlooking a splendid, man made lake

with purely white swans having their daily joys

Next to her sat older woman, a gypsy

with cards in her hands, a cigarette in her mouth

being busy in predicting a fate of her customer

   Unlike the older woman in fancy clothes

the younger one was most pretty, modern dressed

with a face radiating rays of youthfulness

and her body, Aphrodite alike, radiating the same

The younger woman seemed to be concerned

unsure of what her fate shall be, a nervous Nellie

   ' My dear young lady, your life right now

is more like a sweet calm before a storm

Expect turbulent times to come quite soon

ruthless thunderstorms following thunderstorms

Your love one and your friends shall be gone

You shall be left alone, a cactus on the prairie '

   The young woman thanked the gypsy woman

stood up and went away, her mind on fire

She wandered for hours, crying inwardly 

The Central Park seemed to have lost its lustre

All spirits gone, all dreams burnt to ashes

her soul on the verge of being gone as well

   She was a lonely woman among happy faces

lost in her inner despair, no purpose of life anymore

but then she remembered a thinker she once met

He said then: ' The final reckoning is what you want '

She smiled to herself, looked at people around

Light of happiness was back with her in all of its shine

Falling into Abyss

   Falling down into the depth of abyss

no chance to survive, no point of return

Falling down as if my soul left me for good

yet I feel her within me, bouncing forth and back

desperately seeking the way out of this doom

Falling down the abyss, with my eyes wide open

   Catch me angels, catch me demons

catch me whoever you are

You shall be my sweet savior

for all times to come, be sure of it !!

I shall rock your days, rock your nights

to the tunes of House and Techno

   Look what's happening with me

my face is a cry of unspeakable horror 

as in the Scream by Edvard Munch 

a real mask of approaching death

one which Phantom of the Ghost

would be jealous of, trying to steal it

   Catch me angels, catch me demons

catch me whoever you are

You shall be my sweet savior

for all times to come, be sure of it !!

I shall rock your days, rock your nights

to the tunes of House and Techno

   Deep there in that abyss, still falling down

no chance of redemption whatsoever

Look now closer and see my soul

escaping in a sparkling way from my body

although still connected with umbilical cord 

No, I shall not let her go, never ever !!

   Catch me angels, catch me demons

catch me whoever you are

You shall be my sweet savior

for all times to come, be sure of it !!

I shall rock your days, rock your nights

to the tunes of House and Techno

   Falling, falling and still falling down

blackness gives way to a splendid redness

It's like blood on the dance floor

except that there is not any floor

but only never ending depth of abyss

thrillingly deep in my mind and my soul

   Catch me angels, catch me demons

catch me whoever you are

You shall be my sweet savior

for all times to come, be sure of it !!

I shall rock your days, rock your nights

to the tunes of House and Techno

 

Gone with the wind

   It's soul to soul, a message filled with love

no need to send it by post, my dearest babe

cos you are my only love greater than life

never to be forgotten, my Shakespearean drama 

   Do you remember all those sweet nights

under the heavenly canvas woven with stars

shimmering us to the rhythm of a music

the music of love, as great as that of Mozart 

   Do you remember all those fresh mornings 

when we had woken up to the symphony

the symphony of love from all those sunrises

every time with yet another palette of hues

   Do you remember all those warm evenings

when we held each other heartily in our arms

and kissed passionately to the very tunes

of the cosmic philharmonic of the sunsets

   Do you remember all those times together

round the clock and round the year upon year

when we were entwined in eternal love

and immune from all the dramas of the world

   One day the stars crashed on Earth violently

although still there on the heavenly canvas

and you were nowhere to be seen around

gone with the wind, never again to be seen

Seven Heavens

   Look at the lonely man at the seaside

standing in the waters of the Pacific Ocean

with hands brought up to the high sky

singing an elegy to a woman he loves

   ' Oh, darling, you were my Seven Heavens

at home, on our beloved planet Earth

and in the far away infinite Universe

   You were my shining royal celestial dome

a pearl as sparkling as the Sun's rays

beaming at us from the very blue sky

   You were my twilight rays at dawn and dusk

streaming through gaps in celestial clouds

and forming aureole crowning your head

   You were a celestial sphere of outmost beauty

with air scattering blue sunlight through

bathing us both in our love's adventures

   You were my only love greater than life

which one day disappeared behind the stars

far too far for me to reach you for now '

   The man stopped singing and dropping a tear

he threw himself into the ocean waves

seeming to be hard like asphalt of a street

Nothing could be seen for a long while

as only rhythmic symphony of the ocean waves

Glory of Love

   A man was standing on the shore of Pacific waters

at San Pablo Bay, one of the Californian bays

with its most picturesque Golden Gate and the bridge

He was splashed by the warm rays of Sun

and cried out, with hands up towards the sky

   A woman was standing in the Pacific waters

at one of the New Zealand bays of Wellington

It was the Oriental Bay at the heart of the City

She was also splashed by the warm Sun's rays

and cried out too, with hands up towards the sky

   Strangely, their words were perfectly the same

out of their souls connected to each other

despite living at both ends of the vast Pacific

Although separated from each other so much

sounding the same, a sign of their hearts tuned in

   ' The Pacific waters separate us crudely

us, the lovers greater than life, my darling !!

What else must we give away

to be no longer split by this fate ?

Why must we suffer and for how long yet ?

Oh, glory of love, you must be ours !! '

   Both, the man and the woman, great lovers

threw themselves into the waters of Pacific

They swam a hundred meters, perhaps twice as much

but then had to make turnaround feeling too tired

and swim back to the shore, feeling losers somehow

   Once back on the golden sand of a beach

he threw himself, unaware she did the same

onto the warm Californian Bay's sand

while she hid her face in the golden sand

of the splendid Oriental Bay of Wellington

   And then a miracle from the sky did happen

   ' I love you and I shall never give you up '

she heard a message brought by the winds

This time she was completely unaware

her lover received the same message from her

   Both were then sitting long hours at their bays

close to each other despite being separated

by ten thousands of kilometers of vast Pacific

the monarch on its own, kingdom of Poseidon himself

allowing its currents to be used for true lovers

   They felt assured this time they shall meet

perhaps in not so a distant future from now on

and shall be able to to extract fruits of love at will

and choke pleasantly at will with plentiful of love

one which shall become their most welcome home 

most cherished as well called their only Glory of Love

 

Eye of Tiger, Eye of Lion

   We are lovers, children of the Universe

shooting for the stars and catching them

bringing them home and letting them shine 

for us while we love each other tenderly

in most fiery way one could ever imagine

   Oh, babe, I am your eye of tiger, loving you

I am your eye of a lion, caring for you

I am your eye of eagle, singing for you

I am your eye of giraffe, watching for you

Oh, my babe, stay with me, love me tender

dance to the tunes of House and Techno !!

   We're perpetual travelers seeking more

riding our car faster than wild winds do

speeding up on the American highway

in a spirit of freedom and love above all

we, the hunters of stars, children of love

   Oh, babe, I am your eye of tiger, loving you

I am your eye of a lion, caring for you

I am your eye of eagle, singing for you

I am your eye of giraffe, watching for you

Oh, my babe, stay with me, love me tender

dance to the tunes of House and Techno !!

   We're riding fast towards the Oregon skies

spreading over the Cascade Mountains 

in addition to the divine Pacific coastline

Stopping at Californian bays on the way

and splashing ourselves with Pacific waters

   Oh, babe, I am your eye of tiger, loving you

I am your eye of a lion, caring for you

I am your eye of eagle, singing for you

I am your eye of giraffe, watching for you

Oh, my babe, stay with me, love me tender

dance to the tunes of House and Techno !!

   So many wonders underway, all singing for us

Mount Elbert under the blue Colorado skies

Whealer Peak under rainbow alike Nevada skies

All cheering us, forming a symphony of love

for us, the travelers in love, the hunters of stars

   Oh, babe, I am your eye of tiger, loving you

I am your eye of a lion, caring for you

I am your eye of eagle, singing for you

I am your eye of giraffe, watching for you

Oh, my babe, stay with me, love me tender

dance to the tunes of House and Techno !!

 

Femme fatale

   You are my starship, I am your warrior

You are my shimmering star

I am your lover at your feet

You are my everlasting Spring

I am your babe to play with 

till the very morning hours

   Dance, dance my dear babe

dance till we have it enough

Fill me with your love, my babe

more sweet than bees honey

Dance, dance my dear babe

to the tunes of House and Techno

You're my femme fatale, I'm your man

   You are my model on a catwalk

I am your loving designer

You are my seductive vamp

in mysterious twilight shadows

I am your blood thirsty vampire

innocent, in my dreams only

   Dance, dance my dear babe

dance till we have it enough

Fill me with your love, my babe

more sweet than bees honey

Dance, dance my dear babe

to the tunes of House and Techno

You're my femme fatale, I'm your man

   You are my cosmic outer world

which I try to get to via the Black Hole

I am only your Milky Way Galaxy

longing to you feverishly, my femme fatale

Your charms and allure ensnare me 

the moonshine at a midnight hour

   Dance, dance my dear babe

dance till we have it enough

Fill me with your love, my babe

more sweet than bees honey

Dance, dance my dear babe

to the tunes of House and Techno

You're my femme fatale, I'm your man

Love

   Must I be Shakespeare to express my love

one which was greater than life

seeming to last forever, everlasting

   We had it so good, enjoying each other

friends and lovers, or lovers and friends

difficult to say what was first, or both at once

   Our love was the Sun splashing us brightly

and the shimmering stars at night

sending us kisses of love incessantly

   Our love were people smiling at us

wishing us all the goodwills of the world

and we ourselves, united in each other

   Everything was in place, rightfully and godly

rivers of honey, seas of boundless beauty

biodiversity serving us as we serving her

   But when you went away one day from me

with no goodbye, no a word of farewell

it was the end of the world for me, Romeo alike

   Stars crashed down on Earth the following night

and I was swept away by the high seas

a castaway on the ocean, in its full storm

   I was myself a bottle with a message inside

saying I love you till the end of the world

the bottle filled with the tears of my despair

Romeo & Juliet

   This is a tragic but magic story

of Romeo & Juliet, the lovers

Romeo the day, Juliet the night

The two, so different of each other

   Romeo was saying to Juliet

Goodbye my love, goodbye

His coat was brilliant, sparkling

filled with shiny and pearly rays

from the Sun, so much effervescent

sweet as honey, spicy as chilli

awarding the world with life

the gift of life, indeed

   But what was under the coat

not of his wish, not of his doing

done by the so called civilisation

on the planet he was watchful of

was something else, thrilling

gruesome, scary, of a twilight zone

ideological Sodomy and Gomorry

   Despots hanging their oponents

Islamists beheading Christian converts

women degraded on all fronts

by unwilling patriarhic systems

stoned even to gruesome death

the West being squeezed out

by barbarians of the modern times 

as much as the Roman Empire 

which was brought down, fallen down

by swords and with no mercy

This lustrous world was turning

into one of dizzying but lifeless roses

cut out unceremoniously 

   Blood was being sucked out of them

while the hideous vampires feasted

Our politicians were saying us

they wanted to save this civilisation

but what a civilisation they had in mind?

   And was it possible when Amazon rainforest

and California's Emerald Triangle

and anything else, were on fire ?

When the life bringing golden bees

were starving while fed with pesticides

of which we knew they were
