Step to the left
Step to the right
No music is heard
Except that inside
Step to the left
Step to the right
In mutual embrace
Twin loves aligned
Step to the left

`You Are`
Written by: Nicole Vallery
You are the smile on my face, the glimmer in my eye
You are my one, my only, my Pumpkin Pie
You are my Best Friend, I pray never my foe
You are the one . . .

Upon distant battlefields
In lands few shall ever know
They give their all
Today as those
Who have marched before
To defend an oath
A solemn sacred promise
Written in eloquence
At the birth . . .

I still have
The sunflower you gave to me
Once upon that cool
Late summer day
We walked down the lane
Your hand in mine
Tree shrouded by gentle branches
Arching over us as though
In protective . . .

The form of a cherubic face
In this treacherous world - my host;
Triumphs over my agony with all grace.
I'm so lucky to be among a . . .

After rapping twice and one time more
Illuminating glow through the looking glass
Wavy vision sighted from the past
Covered porch of romantic lore
Lost thoughts of either . . .

Once-loved relic of dancing feet,
New styles invade your elegant halls.
Though all around is blasting noise
One classic room devotes itself inward.

There was a lass of ignoble birth
Did not let it quantify her worth
From dusk to dawn to she toiled mightily
To enrich her life with steadfast vitality
No more a caring person to be found . . .

I looked for you along the river wide
Among the trees so tall
To the heavens they seemed to reach
So to take you into their arms so strong
I looked for you in the endless hills . . .

I wish you well from now 'til when
What glorious greeting from pale blue sky
Go out, go out, now don't be shy
Go greet the waxing day so bold
Be free . . .

The promotional colored handbills

It's flying by
Slowly
Day by day
The little girl
The little boy
Grew and flew away
It's flown by
So quickly
Year by year
It seemed just yesterday
One blink of the eye
And it's all . . .

Of happiness reflected in innocent smiles
She was a poet
A magician with words so plain
The rival of . . .

to a pale disk, deep down the dim
tunnel of night. "Don't go." Still moon
peters out. A pitcher-glass, full

I stir the aromatic dream
