Independence For Billy Boy

Independence for Billy Boy - Mitro

We started the journey at midnight
battling straight on right through the night
a colossal effort at freedom
figuring out
this is wrong this is right
I know that I am creative
I know what I think
that I am                               
but can anyone tell me 
please edify                                                         
did I hear the mew of a lamb
a lamb that mews in the face of the danger
the danger that comes from within
when every one fears they don't matter
when in fact everyone most certainly can
if they turn their face from such darkness
and give in and revolve to the light
then the world will turn much brighter
and the planet will blaze with the light
-Mitro

Rise Up Rise Up Schrodingers Cat

Schrodingers Cat - Mitro

Rise up rise up oh mighty ones
and let us see your souls
for what is still inside you
is only left for fools
take up the stuff
take up the leaves
and let me go away
away away to beauty land
to play another day
rise up rise up
oh loyal friend
and let me soothe your soul                
for you are such a treasure
with you what need of gold
take me to the mountains
let me roam the plains
for tomorrow is forgotten
when we know of names
 rise up rise up oh mighty ones
and I'll let you take the charge
of balancing and golden rings
and things I know not of
-Mitro

Trees With Eyes That See Me

 Trees With Eyes That See Me - Mitro

The house is surrounded by  good guys
people masquerading quite plainly as trees
each object is filled with a person
so only good guys apply for work please
and take me along to the river
for a ride that is filled not with angst
of visions of crocodiles floating
and waters overflowing the bank
let me look to the sky at the sunshine
and the warmth of the sun on my skin
and let me travel back to my childhood
where everything in my life
is innocence once again.
-Mitro

Creation

Creation - Mitro

As fishes talk in silken voice
gentle animals cavort
and the boat glides through the water with little help from me
- Mitro

Cross

Cross - Mitro

Oh golden star in Heaven
reach down and see your son
and cast the beauty of your vision

 into the shape of one

Oh golden Father in Heaven

look down and see your son

and cast the beauty of your vision

 into the shape of one

Ode to My Best Friend Patty Lou

Friend - Mitro

She
glides on the ocean
of limitless life
as she seeks and she wanders
through  every delight
beautiful sunset
beautiful breeze
beautiful Patty                                     
she do what she please
oceans of sunshine
shine on her face
raptures of heaven
foreshadow her space
delectation
mirrors her soul
oceans of kindness
cascade over her
-Mitro

The Room is Filled With Angels

Angel Too -  Mitro

The room is filled with angels
everyone who cares
the room a glow with their energy
people from ceiling to stairs
so blessings to my mothers and blessings to my dads
and to all my brothers and sisters
I'm very glad I had
for some day we will be angels
and this poem will be for us
and we will rock and roll on the ocean
holding others in our trust 
-Mitro
