FIGHTING THE CLOUDS

FIGHTING THE CLOUDS

A Poem by Robert Robbie Lord Dudley

when the day is done

when the night comes on

for love sake pull up downhill underfoot on petals

each other sweetly a drummer and a dreamer

 

as-liken i never did this before the glance onward

after we gone over at the point been taken 

i want something different

in my soul pressing myself

 

fighting the clouds

seeing all the little stars fly

each are burning bright

in the sky

 

through the long long

dark dark road go

through the short short

dark dark path stop

 

if that is the case brings focus for you anyhow for me

now we're close

now we're close

now we're almost home though i swum blind

 

as-liken a bird in the grass

in the sunshine free hanging on

by some ways in that's my last one to a clearer day

jaded tired through fightin' alone as-liken a shiny button

 

a-dangling humbled hopeful thinking moving

in need of repairing and how i dare to do it myself

by some ways far-out as spoken

and in an uneasy silence and it was getting so because

 

it goes on and will incline straight up 

to decline although the clippings are for you to see

are lagging behind everso of back and beyond to paste

to clearly show, oh, there-on wasn't improving much

 

through the high high 

dark dark road go

through the low low

dark dark path stop

 

as-liken a tree in the field

leaning over, reaching down

what a beautiful, foolish

thing to see, to climb, to think

 

we will find for everything's going cold 

through balancing without embracing 

as we were all for all twice soaring and falling 

i there-in the haste wanted it 

 

another cup of delight

another cup of coffee

in these experiences growing

brung me swung me soaring and falling

 

across the great waters of love is roaring

at sight bestows of a tear drop

to do nothing now after much ado

in tiny boats of flowers flung

 

when the day is done

when the night comes on

for love sake pull up downhill underfoot on petals

each other sweetly a drummer and a dreamer

 

through the long long

dark dark road go

through the short short

dark dark path stop
