Might As Well Tell A Mountain
~*Marge Tindal*~

You might as well tell a mountain
not to spill her lazy streams,
as to try to tell me not to cascade
through my not-so-impossible dreams.

You'd never chide a mountain
from preening in her splendor of green,
so why would you try to shatter
the dreaming of my dreams ?

In sunlight rays adornment,
dare you tell a mountain not to peak ?
Across the bridging of my dreams,
do not try to still my speak.

Be gone you slasher, dasher-of-hope,
I've no patience, your doubts to reprove,
for with the tiniest mustard-seed of faith,
I've many a mountain yet to move.

I have met the mountain
and stand humbly on it's peak.

EASY ON ME.. I'M JUST AN AMATEUR

It's such a clever innocence with which you show myself to me
As if you know how it feels to never be who you wanted to be
