by Daniel Brouse

What is it I see?
Sparkle
Twinkle
Sincerity

You let
Me in sight
… camera on my moves
Dreamt it’d always be
Someone like you
A passionate soul
Wanting to view
Eternity

You’re the kind
One loves

What is it I see?
Smiles
Eyes
Shear beauty

Will you always be
As adorable
As the night
We met?

Lord, please let
Me never to forget

Don’t let me be…
Escort me?
“Hugs, kisses… I love you.”
I love you, too.

A song inspired by this conversation….

Daniel Brouse asked Edie Weinstein:
What do you think?

Edie Weinstein replied:
About what?

Daniel Brouse responded:
Ha! The world?

Edie Weinstein shines the light:
I think it is a place of divine delight in which we get to create our own vision and live it out. I think we are each responsible for healing it and illuminating the dark places. I love being here. OR were you looking for an answer a bit more mundane? ?

Daniel Brouse:
Perfect! Too bad more people don’t know… heaven is here.

LYRICS
Imagine this…
While having conversation
With Miss Bliss
Somehow we
Miss the bliss
… miss the realization
We’re soakin’ in
Happiness

Heaven on Earth
From our most
Recent birth
No lyin’
We’ve reached Zion
The Promised Land
In our hand
If we could…
But only
Understand

by Daniel Brouse

Humans
Create fate
Humans
Create dates

Human’s fate
Set their date

At any rate
There’s no debate
Our state…
Irate

We’ve gone mad
Off our rocker
All more than a tad
Beyond rational

Create hate?
Participate
Via voyeur
Then begin
The citizen
If we fall folly
To our
Un-natural nation

The gravity
Of no passivity
Leaves no pity

Create hate?
Participate
Via voyeur

Or, didn’t we know
Or, didn’t we NO

For us it is
A dismal prognosis

DOA RIP

Pray love gets the best of me.

Music And Lyrics

E
E / D / A / E

If the whole goal
Is to be on top
Then, it all depends
On where the top is…
My bottom
Could be
Your lid

If the whole goal
Is to try to stop
Then, it all depends
On having a heart…

My goal
Could be
Your start
Sometimes
It’s hard
To tell apart

bookmark_borderThe Break Up Song

by Daniel Brouse

Intro:
For those of you
With a broken heart
My heart
Goes out
To you

[crunch]

Even when it’s feeling
Like the pain
Will drive me insane
I’m not left reeling
In a downward spiral
Toward the abyss

You fix
What’s amiss

My knee is headed East
My foot West
Needless to say,
Not the best.
Of course,
It could be much worse
Without you
Inside my head.

Helping fix
What’s a mess
Making the pain
Less

My knee is headed East
My foot West
Obviously,
Not the best.
But…at least,
Not broken hearted.
In fact,
You’ve started,
To heal
From heel
To head

The feeling headed
In a reciprocal
Circle

bookmark_borderJust Is (Of Peace)

by Daniel Brouse
Inspired by Insanity Humanity (Ain’t That the Truth!)
and the Rev. LeRoy Montana

A pound of bricks
A pound of feathers
Those in the throws of sticks
And, stones
Thrown from their thrones

Flesh and bones?
Nothing weathers
That matters

Is it fine
In this time
When, “What is that?”
Is that what is
Makes you wonder
How the others live

Perhaps, not that far away
A day
When what is just
Just is

More than chance
That justice
Someday will sway
The balance

PART II

When, “What is that?”
Is that what is
Makes you wonder
How the others live

When what is just
Just is

Justice
Someday will sway
The balance

How will I weigh?

A pound of bricks
A pound of feathers
Those in the throws of sticks
And, stones
The one that weathers
Thrown from their thrones
The one that matters
Is not me

Without we
I just am
Without you
Too
Two alones

A family
Better we’d be
Better by far
We already are
Together we way
Together we weigh
Together we may
Without fail
The Scale
Just is
Justice

by Honey Bane and Daniel Brouse

Sweet Dreams, Honey.

“You too,
may angels abound,
and be your personal surround sound,
while you dream on their chorus of feathered down souls…
Then rise and reclaim your life as the sun shines,
let the shadows be lifted,
and be blessed ever gifted,
it is always the first day,
of the rest of your life
🙂 nite x”

A good night kiss,
Coming true,
Of a wish,
Peeking through,
The veil,
Unsowing seems.

Sweet dreams,
Come alive,
Relieving strife,
Revealing… what is real.
The first day, we pray,
Of the rest of life,
Setting sail,
For New Edan,
We arrive,
To begin.
— The End

by Daniel Brouse on Thursday, January 6, 2011 at 8:11pm

Once, there were two girls
One on either side
Of understanding

The one to the right
Always in the light
Loves to sing
Brings hope to hearts

The one to the wrong
Hates song
Wallows in shadows
Blackens holes in hearts

What is life worth
What fulfills

For my time on Earth
The thrills
Of the ride
That you provide
Make the future bright

Thank God
For the allowance

Now, is once… going toward the one in the light

I used to have a “friend”.
But, canceled?
Burn the bookmark

There’s blood
In that stone
Will

Paper or stone?

Do they run deep?

I used to have a “friend”. But, canceled “plans” and getting blown off repeatedly have ended that. As I said to a real friend earlier… turn the page, close the chapter, burn the bookmark.

Raise The Dead by The Snake Handling Immortal tongue Speakers

Intro:
Bugle starts off playing Taps
While guitarist *taps* the guitar

You’re gonna raise the dead
Playing music like that

She said,
“This song’s ’bout my son”
I meant no disrespect
I heard what you said
“My son is dead”

“At that time…
… of trouble
Your people
Shall be delivered.
And many of those who sleep
In the dust of the earth
Shall awake.”

Raise the dead
May my spirit
Raise the dead
I can hear it
Raise the dead
Not just inside my head

May we shine
The brightness of the firmament
May we shine
The brightness of the fulfillment

She said,
“That’s my girl
I don’t know who you are
But, you better be special”
You said,
“That’s Daniel.”

[spoken word to bugle and Krista tapping… add pagpipe interweave Amazing Grace ]
“Those who are wise shall shine
Like the brightness of the firmament,
And those who turn many to righteousness
Like the stars forever and ever.”
And many of those who sleep
In the dust of the earth
Shall awake.”
[end spoken word]

Raise the dead
May my spirit
Raise the dead
I can hear it
Raise the dead
Not just inside my head

May we shine
The brightness of the firmament
May we shine
The brightness of the fulfillment
At this time
Your people
Shall be delivered.

A lil’ bird
Flew up to my window
As I was speeding
On my way
Oh, I dunno why
In such a rush
Not stopping
To smell
The roses
On the way

There
And, then
That day
I could see happiness
Will always
Find a way

Fly
Love will fly there
Fly

Feel like ya wanna die
Fly
Will lift you up
Lost hope… wanna sigh?
Fly

You know Roe?
FLY

Sherri Lee
You tempt me
With all that’s good

We could
Sing
We could
Dance
We could do
Most anything

With your power of touch
There ain’t much
Left to chance
You’re not a matter
Of good luck
You’re plain good

When it comes to average
Or extra ordinary
I take the stance —
You’re the latter

(more to come… went from writing this*outside* in my car
to writing *inside* the comfort of the studio as it relates to Sherri Lee being energy out in the world and Sherri Lee making people feel comfortable… warm within)

Sherri

Certainly
Brings….

All the while,
She’ll gladly do it with a smile

Brings
Many good things

“Coming from a place of sensitivity”

Clarivointcy

“Coming from a place of sensitivity”

Transparency

You can see right through me

Being a medium

Is not very average

Some

If not all living

Can be unforgiving

… even savage.

Speaking in tongues

Ghost whisperer

Shhh! Hear Her?

Ghost whisperer

Screams

From the top of his lungs

Handling snakes

Whatever it takes

To peak

Through the seams

To seek

What it means

Sometimes

You may look like a freak

When you go to speak

To the dead

However

It’s worth hearing

What is said

No one lives forever!

No one lives forever?

It takes

Trying to give away

Every Joule of energy

It takes

Trying to give away

Every jewel of energy

Extemporaneous

Stream of consciousness

The elimination of *me*

So, that I may see

Speaking in tongues

Handling snakes

Whatever it takes

Often times

You may look like a freak

When you go to speak

Exposing one’s soul

Can take a toll

Exposing one’s sole

Can take a toll
