Jamaica Train
You could turn Pom around 360° and he would be lost
So it made great sense to book tickets and go and take New York
Fly on a jet plane
On to a great quest
To land of opportunity
Above the clouds
In clear blue skies
Through turbulences
Ear busting pressure
Landing gear down
An the wheels touch the ground
Jamaica train
Never ending loop
Connection line
To the nerve system of the city
Jamaica train!
Find that station
Now catch the tube to
Destination

In Search of Sonny

In search of Sonny
In search of Sonny
In search of that free guitar as saxophone
Really making the effort, going through
Piles and piles of wax
Sonny must have guided the way
Being there in a spirit
Cause the steady flow of second hands
Graciously gave out Material and Mann
Only wanting a pittance in reward
In search of Sonny
In search of the melody master
And his words on improvisation
Still ringing out clear and true
Like that slide whistle
And the duets with Linda
Never easy on you
That earnestness shines through
In search of Sonny
I bet you never would have called
Your playing skronk
In all its melodiness
And beauty
And the horn like lines
Exquisite as a sunrise
New morning handing out
A love supreme

Oceanville, Brownsville
Long walk from Oceanville, Brownsville to Brooklyn bridge
Fulton avenue changing ever so slightly on the way
Amazing variety of churches
Reverends and their sons
Welcoming to join their community
In between you can get your hair and nails done
Or hang around in small stores
Got your coffee, got your cigarettes
Lottery tickets, snacks and delicatess
Slow change, but looky, looky yonder
Bakery and book store
Come out of the blue
Steady rise on the ladder

Falling Rain
Sweet gently falling rain
Sea of umbrellas
Popped up like mushrooms
Changing the pace
To those who start running
And those who drop to a
Leisurely loose walk
Sweet gently falling rain
Filling out the subway stations
Buskers take heed of the moment
And fill the tunnels with sounds
Sustaining like a cathedral echo
Almost like mist
Way too light to be a shower
You feel it more
Like a breath of the ocean
A touch of moisture on your skin
As soon as it is there
It is gone
Sweet gently falling rain
Some seek shelter from the park
Others relish on the fresh smell it brings
In this tender spring afternoon
One can almost feel the grass grow

No Loitering

No Loitering
Up and down the schoolyard
The romp and stomp of small feet
Steady beat of the bass drum
Thunder and ligtning snare shots
Cascade bouncing on the city walls
Apartments and city blocks
Street lights flicker
Urging you to hurry up
Get on with your crossing
Make it swift if you catch my drift
No loitering on the yard
No loitering on the mind

Pass it on/Melting Pot
Melting pot
it takes all kinds
And there surely is room for all
Every nationality hanging on
Proudly to their roots
And heritage is passed on
Pass it on
From father to son
Nurture that eternal line
Invisible and hard to break
Still some manage to escape
Do the unexpected
Break the tools and come out a winner
Melting pot
hungry and needy
Well oiled machine
So very human
On an eternal search
Still right here - right now
Pass it on
The core of humanity
We are all one,
And one is all
Building up bridges
And they are there
To cross
One is all,
And all is one

Stained Glass Window
Get a photograph
A nice clean shot
Moment frozen in time
Or series of snap shots
In a specific time frame
Immortalizing a moment
Something worth preserving
Kind of a document
Small detail might do
Or full blown panorama scene
Through a stained glass window
Changing the scenery
Soft and surreal
Altering the time
Not quite stopping
But a beautiful slow-motion
Stopping the commotion
Muting the sound
