Twinkle Twinkle Little Star
Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
How I wonder what you are.
Up above the world so high,
Like a diamond in the sky.

When the blazing sun is gone,
When the nothing shines upon,
Then you show your little light,
Twinkle, twinkle, all the night.

Then the traveller in the dark,
Thanks you for your tiny spark,
He could not see which way to go,
If you did not twinkle so.

In the dark blue sky you keep,
And often through my curtains peep,
For you never shut your eye,
Till the sun is in the sky.

As your bright and tiny spark,
Lights the traveller in the dark.
Though I know not what you are,
Twinkle, twinkle, little star.

Twinkle, twinkle, little star.
How I wonder what you are.
Up above the world so high,
Like a diamond in the sky.

Twinkle, twinkle, little star
How I wonder what you are
How I wonder what you are

Hush Little Baby
Hush little baby, don't say a word,
Papa's gonna buy you a mocking bird.
And if that mocking bird won't sing,
Papa's gonna buy you a diamond ring.
And if that diamond ring turns brass,

You'll still be the sweetest little baby in town.
Itsy-Bitsy Spider
The itsy-bitsy spider
Climbed up the water spout.
Down came the rain
And washed the spider out.

And dried up all the rain.

Climbed up the spout again.

The sheep's in the meadow, the cows in the corn.

The Three Little Kittens, They Lost Their Mittens
The three little kittens, they lost their mittens,
And they began to cry,
"Oh, mother dear, we sadly fear,
That we have lost our mittens."
"What!   Lost your mittens, you naughty kittens!
Then you shall have no pie."
"Meow, meow, meow."
"Then you shall have no pie."

The three little kittens, they found their mittens,
And they began to cry,
"Oh, mother dear, see here, see here,
For we have found our mittens."
"Put on your mittens, you silly kittens,
And you shall have some pie."
"Purr, purr, purr,
Oh, let us have some pie."

The three little kittens put on their mittens,
And soon ate up the pie,
"Oh, mother dear, we greatly fear,
That we have soiled our mittens."
"What, soiled your mittens, you naughty kittens!"
Then they began to sigh,
"Meow, meow, meow,"
Then they began to sigh.

The three little kittens, they washed their mittens,
And hung them out to dry,
"Oh, mother dear, do you not hear,
That we have washed our mittens?"
"What, washed your mittens, then you're good kittens,
But I smell a rat close by."
"Meow, meow, meow,
We smell a rat close by."

Love Songs to Heal a Brokenheart


Love pains and heartaches- all has to go through the said emotions at some point in our lives and it is not easy. It is a struggle to cope and gradually recover from the perils of a brokenheart. Thankfully, the world is full of beautiful music and soothing melodies to help us heal fast: 

If You Walk Away by David Pomeranz
If you walked away from me today
I am sure that who you were going to
Would feel the way that I do
Baby it's you
Who fills up my life
And if you walked away from me today
Never to return until the journey
That you made had ended
I know you planned it
Just to fill up my life
Fill my life
Till now
No one's been able to show me how
To fill my life like you
You are the woman who taught me to
And if you walked away from me today
It wouldn't change a thing
I'd still be singing celebration of you
Baby you do
You fill up my life
Fill my life
Now I know
What it feels like to overflow
Until my life is through
All I'm here for is here for you
Fill my life
Now I see
What it feels like to be set free
Until my life is through
All I'm here for
Is here for you
Just for you
Only for you
Hey hey...oooo


What About Me by Kim Carnes and James Ingram
I see you here with me
I've waited all my life
For someone like you
Someone to give
My heart and soul to
I look into your eyes
Your love for me
Was such a welcome surprise
I think at last
I've found forever
But what about me
(I'll always love you)
Oh, what about me
(I'll always need you)
You were my love before
But I need so much more of you
Time after time
I feel I'm losing my mind
Or maybe this is what
Lovers must go through
It never entered my mind
We could be wasting our time
What am I gonna do
What about me
Oh, what about me
No reason to pretend
True love affairs don't
Have to come to an end
The moment we don't
Have all the answers
I nearly go insane
(Oh, I go insane)
Each and every time
I hear you whisper my name
I feel the same
When I'm around you
(But what about me)
I'll always love you
(Oh, what about me)
I'll always need you
This is so hard for me
I wanted so much to be
With you, whoa
Time after time
I feel I'm losing my mind
Or maybe this is what
Lovers must go through
It never entered my mind
We could be wasting our time
What am I gonna do
Time after time
I'm losing my mind
It never entered my mind
We could be wasting our time
But what about me




"Someone That I Used To Love" by Natalie Cole
When I wake up each morning trying to find myself
And if I'm ever the least unsure, I always remind myself
Though you're someone in this world that I'll always choose to love
From now on you're only someone that I used to love

As for me it's getting down to the last unspoken part
When you must begin to ease the pain of a broken heart
Tell me why should I even care if I have to lose your love
From now on you're only someone that I used to love
Yet it wasn't enough for you
All the love I had to give
I did my best to keep you satisfied
I guess you'll never know how much I tried, I really tried
And if ever our paths should cross again
Well, you won't find me being the one to get lost again
Once I had so much to give but you just refused my love
From now on you're only someone that I used to love
I did my best to keep you satisfied
I guess you'll never know how much I tried, I really tried
When I wake up each morning trying to find myself
And if I'm ever the least unsure, I always remind myself
Though you're someone in this world that I'll always choose to love
From now on you're only someone that I used to love
From now on you're only someone that I used to love
Though you're someone in this world that I'll always choose to love
From now on you're only someone that I used to love
From now on you're only someone that I used to love


Selected Poems by Jose Garcia Villa

POEMS BY JOSE GARCIA VILLA

God Said, “I Made a Man”

God said, “I made a man
Out of clay –
But so bright he, he spun
Himself to brightest Day
Till he was all shining gold,
And oh,
He was handsome to behold!
But in his hands held he a bow
Aimed at me who created
Him. And I said,
‘Wouldst murder me
‘Who am thy Fountainhead’
Then spoke he the man of gold:
‘I will not
Murder thee! I do but
Measure thee. Hold
Thy peace!’ And this I did,
But I was curious
Of this so regal head.
‘Give thy name!’ –Sir! Genius’”

Leaving as heritage this islet this poem,
You and I, this country yours and mine,
This child dreaming on the edges of life.

Excerpt from "Have Come Am Here" lyrics (1942):
     In my desire to be Nude
     I clothed myself in fire:–
     Burned down my walls, my roof,
     Burned all these down.
     Emerged myself Supremely lean
     Unsheathed like a holy knife.
     With only His Hand to find
     To hold me beyond annul.
     And found Him found Him found Him
     Found the Hand to hold me up!
     He held me like a burning poem
     And waved me all over the world.



"The Anchored Angel"
     And, lay, he, down, the, golden, father,
     (Genesis', fist, all, gentle, now)
     Between, the, wall, of, China, and,
     The, tiger, tree, (his, centuries, his,
     Aerials, of, light) —
     Anchored, entire, angel!
     He, in, his, estate, miracle, and, living, dew,
     His, fuses, gold, his, cobalts, love,
     And, in, his, eyepits,
     under, the, liontelling, sun —
     The, zeta, truth — the, swift, red, Christ.
     The, red-thighed, distancer, swift, saint,
     Who, made, the, flower, principle,
     The, sun, the, hermit's, seizures,
     And, all, the, saults, zigzags, and,
     Sanskrit, of, love.
     Verb-verb, noun-noun:
     Light's, latticer, the, angel, in, the, spiderweb:
     By, whose, espials, from, the, silk, sky,
     From, his, spiritual, ropes,
     With, fatherest, fingers, lets, down,
     Manfathers, the, gold, declension, of, the, soul.
     Crown, Christ's, kindle, Christ! Or, any, he,
     Who, builds, his, staircase, fire —
     And, lays, his, bones, in, ascending,
     Fever. Verb-verb, king's, spike — who, propels,
     In, riddles! Six-turbined,
     Deadlock, prince. And, noun,
     Of, all, nouns: inventor, of, great, eyes: seesawing,
     Genesis — unfissured, spy: His, own, Arabian,
     his, love-flecked, eye!
     The, ball, of, birth, the, selfwit, bud,
     So, birthright, lanced, I, hurl, my, bloodbeat, Light.

      And, watch, again, Genesis', phosphor, as,
     Blood, admires, a, man. Lightstruck,
     Lightstruck, into, the, mastertask,
     No, hideout, fox, he, wheels, his, grave, of,
     Burning, and, threads, his,
     Triggers, into, flower: laired,
     In, the, light's, black, branches: the, food, of,
     Light, and, light's, own, rocking, milk.
     But, so, soon, a, prince,
     so, soon, a, homecoming, love,
     Nativity, climbs, him, by, the, Word's, three, kings.
     — Or, there, ahead, of, love, vault, back
     And, sew, the, sky, where, it, cracked!
     And, rared, in, the, Christfor, night,
     Lie, down, sweet, by, the, betrayer, tree,
     To-fro, angel! Hiving, verb!
     First, lover, and, last, lover, grammatiq:
     Where, rise, the, equitable, stars, the, roses, of, the, Zodiac,
     And, rear, the, eucalypt, towns, of, love:
     — Anchored, Entire, Angel:
     Through, whose, huge, discalced, arable, love,
     Bloodblazes, oh, Christ's, gentle, egg: His, terrific, sperm.

Lyric 17
I can no more hear Love’s
Voice. No more moves
The mouth of her. Birds
No more sing. Words
I speak return lonely.
Flowers I pick turn ghostly.
Fire that I burn glows
Pale. No more blows
The wind. Time tells
No more truth. Bells
Ring no more in me.
I am all alone singly.
Lonely rests my head.
—O my God! I am dead.

Lyric 57
My most. My most. O my lost!
O my bright, my ineradicable ghost.
At whose bright coast God seeks
Shelter and is lost is lost. O
Coast of Brightness. O cause of
Grief. O rose of purest grief.
O thou in my breast so stark and
Holy-bright. O thou melancholy
Light. Me. Me. My own perfidy.
O my most my most, O the bright
The beautiful the terrible Accost.

Lyric 22
O lovely. O lovely as panther. O
Creation’s supremest dissenter.
Enter. Teach me thy luminous ire.
O jewelled, pacing, night-displacing
Fire. O night’s nimble-dancing, No-
Saying lyre. Embrace me. Defy me.
Reave me. None shall defend me.
Not God. Not I. Purify me. Consume
Me. Disintegrate me to thy ecstasy.
O lovely and without mercy. O dark-
Footed divinity. O lovely and terrible.

O death irreducible. O unimpeachable.
