From the ancient mists of time
where dwelt the sages way,
the bard of all bards plied his rhymes
that took our breath away.
His words the brush on paper canvas
painted tales in august hues:
of Eden's sweet green innocence, alas
with blood-red guilt we came to lose.
But heaven intervened and sure
with message from above,
that deep within us lies the cure,
in faith and hope and love.
where dwelt the sages way ♪ ♫
♪ ♫ the bard of all bards plied his rhymes
that took our breath away ♪ ♫....

CRANK IT UP, DUDE! THANKS FOR THE LYRICS Rattus old man; I think I am lovin' this electric guitar...I also think it would be a great instrument to take on our excursion to the MOON with our friends! What do you think, old thing? I look rather young and fabulous, don't I? TEA RAT
This was marvelous..to marvelous for words...:)))
I do not know my dearest how to heal the pains of the outside world, but I do know that to live my life to the fullest is to do it WITHIN OURS, TOGETHER, for there, are found daily joys. Moi
that was fun .. thx for the inspiration! Great Sunday to you and yours in Him for rest, sir.
Jg.
Ruben, Ruben, I've been thinking...isn't there a song that goes something like that? Anyway, Iv'e been thinking how wonderfully entertaining you are. I always love your posts. Thanks for visiting and I love the 60s too!
xo, Bonnie
So sweet! What a gorgeous cooperation between Anita and you, love it!
Oh Ruben! Now this is my kind of poetry and song... Loved it, and
Anita's illustrations are wonderful.. You have made my day..
fondly,

God bless you rock and roll rats! May his favor pour down on you today!
I've been missing the beat over here. I better get with it and tell Len about this. He may want to join you and bring some ACDC along or Leonard Skynard,Journey or something to do with bad to the bone...
Martina said, "gorgeous cooperation". And I have to AGREE with her. Though I also think that it is sort of spooky (in a nice way :) how the two of you seem to live and bounce around in the same wave length...true kindred spirits, soul-mates. Love your Rattus and Tea Rat antics....the cat must really be away.
Cool!
Oh, and Ruben, thanks for dropping by earlier on and leaving a lovely comment in my green and white garden.
Too cute for words! Love it!! We're doing well. Coming out of wedding mode.

never read the other silly stuff that i do!
