HBTY

Crystal teal flows in the light
Which emanates from your soul of sight
Flushed is the glow that rests on your cheeks
That brightens me up with a smile that speaks

Clever and kind all packed into one
While doing it right you’re never undone
You always take time for those in need
Never been a better friend indeed

I forever celebrate the moment we met
Utopic memories I shall never forget
I call my home where ever you are
Beside me forever even when you’re far

So I treasure the day on which you were born
Dedicated to you, so I’ve sworn
Pledging my love for all time and more
Happy Birthday to the one I adore

Greatest Generation

We watch the movies but have no clue
The heroic battles they fought through
We think of France like a destination
Ignorant of our grandparents dedication


On this day the 6th of June
The kids are out of school at noon
But the greatest teens of yesteryears
Crawled ashore with blood and tears


Most have passed, having given their all
Long before we started to crawl
So let's not forget their sacrifice
Because just for you, they paid the price

Rein on Reich

Lines them up and paints their arm
Say it's so they do no harm
Stokes the flames of fear and hate
Rein him in and not too late

Waves the flag and we all march
Down the street and through the arch
Fakes the truth and sells the lie
Squeeze us all and then comply

Rolling back the hands of time
Change our rights must be a crime
Make it great as if it's not
Remove the blemish on the spot

Where this leads I do not know
Ride the boat and nav the flow
Line them up and watch the strike
Before we blend into the Reich
