Marching Band Blues

I fear winter's here, ain't no time to cheer,
This time of the year won't see me looking for reindeer.
18, it's my turn to show these fools how it's done,
It's time to show my little brother why I'm the #1 son.

Been marching all my life, about to leave it all behind,
So this Christmas Day Parade is my final chance to shine.
That's right, the marching band has zero time to shine.
I'm the Senior Leader so you know I'm nice on the Sax.

Rehearsing 24/7 ever since Thanksgiving.
Nursing home near 7/11 sees me marching to "Living"
"for the City" I know it's pretty odd and far from the norm,
I thought of everything except to pick up my uniform.

...Intrigued to see more?

Thank You!

Sometimes we take a step back in order to see our lives a bit clearer, Kinda like Dorian Gray listening to MJ's Man in the Mirror. It's weird, you know, when you critique your own attitude, There are always people in your life to which you owe gratitude, Those whom supported you even when you didn't deserve it, And those whom made you stronger by overcoming their observant View of your qualities and how they exaggerate the negative, Call them bullies, haters, or some other form of expletive. To give consistent blame for the good and bad, I would like to thank the following from this pen and pad: ...Intrigued to see more?

Six figure salary, where does it all go? Never in my life did I think about dough In the since of necessity to find the best of me But it's stressing me to the point of animosity ...Intrigued to see more?

Noche de Navidad by Magdelena Serna de Vargas

Noche de Navidad sueño, sombra, penumbras...  En la alcoba infantil yo le pedia,  la Pascua al Niño y en torno presentia de azules alas misterioso vuelo...  Despues dormi soñandome en el cielo... oia al Niño Dios que me decia...  Tu zapatito pons se acerca el dia ... muevete y al punto cumplire tu anhelo...  Mas estaba desnudo y no encontraba zapato que poner,  cruce un prado azul de margaritas bellas y en el aura del escarpin de la fortuna,  cogi el zapato de la media luna y el mismo Dios me lo lleno de estrellas.  -Magdalena Serna de Vargas. (I do not own the right to this poem)
