A POET’S LIFE words and music Doug Roossien 

I NEVER ASKED TO BE BORN… I WON’T BEG NOT TO …Die …

I don’t… fear the …. end  
I…fear I’ll not be…done before it comes  
Mountains to the sea
Falling like a river…story runs

I’ll say I lived my life
Like some unfinished rhyme
Word by word my verses heard
One day at a time
Silent souls will lie
Forever judgment day 
Quietly they’ll read …a poets’ life

As I live and breathe 
Impossible to see…a never was
Every life must turn a page
The story of my time… comes soon enough

They’ll say I lived my life 
Like some unfinished rhyme
Word by word my verses heard
One page at a time
Silent souls will lie
Forever judgment day 
Quietly they’ll read …a poets’ life
Quietly I’ll be …a poets’ life

Who I Am

Sometimes we all get stuck between a rock and a Hard Place.

Written & Performed by Johnny Mc Farlane

Stuck between a rock and a Hard Place

From the time i was little child all i ever wanted to do was to play music. Morning , noon and night. When i get a song in my head i cant stop until i get it down somewhere and i know a lot of people just like me so i wrote this song for all of us Bards. Musical magicians, guardians of musical songs and old traditions. I hope you enjoy this one , it has taken me a long time to get it out and record it. 

We are musicians. 
We are The guardians of songs and old tradition 
We are the Bards , the musical magicians 
We are Musician. 
We are musicians. 

We are Musicians. 
We are not lawyers or Soldiers or politicians 
We are the sorcerers the musical magicians. 
We are Musicians.  

Chorus 
Music is all we want to play 
Form the dawning of the morning sun until the closing of the day 
Music is everything we are it’s our life our love our everything. 
We just want to dance and sing 
Music …. we just want to play Music. 
Music ……We just want to play music. 

We are musicians. 
We’re not Soldiers we’re not lawyers we’re not politicians. 
 We are the Bards we are the Musical Magicians 
We not Physicians, we’re just musicians. 

Music is all we want to play. 
Form the rising of the morning sun until the evening of the day. 
Music is everything we are it’s our life our love our everything. 
We just want to dance and sing. 
Music is everything we are. 
Its our life our soul our everything 
We just want to dance and sing.

Let the Sad In
Lyrics by Jenn Katusha and Jeff Oxford 
Music by Jeff Oxford

©2024

Raindrops snaking down my foggy window pane
I guess the sun decided to stay away
I don’t blame it, I’d do the same 
Curled up in a ball in the spot where you used to lay
Hoping some small piece of you remains
If it’s alright with you I’m gonna stay here all damn day

Chorus
Some days you just have to let sad in
To make room for all the good that has been
Tears don’t mean that you’re weak
They just mean what you felt was deep
So do what you have to make it through
Nobody here is ever gonna judge you
To make room for all the good that has been
Some days you just have to let the sad in

Maybe tomorrow I’ll make a dent
Burn all the letters that you ever sent
Or maybe I’ll read them all and try to figure out exactly what you meant
When you said you loved me then off you went
To go and find yourself all at my expense
Or maybe I’ll cry all day long until I have no tears left 

Chorus
Some days you just have to let sad in
To make room for all the good that has been
Tears don’t mean that you’re weak
They just mean what you felt was deep
So do what you have to make it through
Nobody here is ever gonna judge you
To make room for all the good that has been
Some days you just have to let the sad in
Bridge
If all the brokenhearted in the world held hands 
We would span millions of miles
Sometimes we need rainy days and bumps along the road 
To appreciate the sunshine and smiles 

Chorus
Some days you just have to let sad in
To make room for all the good that has been
Tears don’t mean that you’re weak
They just mean what you felt was deep
So do what you have to make it through
Nobody here is ever gonna judge you
To make room for all the good that has been
Some days you just have to let the sad in

Let The Sad In Bella 3:28:24 Copy

I went into the church the other day and i knelt down at the back of Church and began to pray to God to help me with a few problems that were out of my control, i prayed for the strength to except the things i cannot change, to change the things i can and for the wisdom to known the difference. I prayed for my Children for happiness for them and their children and for forgiveness for all those who need it. I also prayed for the Lord to shine his light on all the dark places in the world that are at War, for peace and help for all the starving people in  the world. I hope he was listening. 
As i prayed this song came to me, its not a very serious song but i think it has a great soul. :-)

SOMEDAY THE WEIGHT OF THIS YEAR ON MY LIFE WILL BE AN ALBUM FULL OF PAIN,... BUT, RIGHT NOW IT SEEMS LIKE I'M CENTRALLY LOCATED IN HELL

1987 WENT TO Nashville for a “short week” Music row to make the big time … wow … nobody listens in lawsuit land in those days. 1988 WENT TO NASHVILLE for 3 days (surely, I would crack this puzzle and become famous …) so many on benches in front of churches. Frustrated, didn’t sing publicly again basically for 25 years. (after all, where would a singer/song writer, make a name for himself in Karaoke land).
2010 discovered open mics (new world begins). WRITING SINCE …a lot! Had someone to produce me in limited acoustic style for a couple years…I think a few were damn good “Fields of Quiet Soil”. Had a lot of offers to write lyrics and/or sing for a lot of other artists here. (but no recording capability …let alone a decent computer for my own. TODAY, THINGS CHANGE …I’m here to make an impact (got 4 new ones under my belt recently) …plus some old ones you will not be disappointed listening to. Welcome old music fans and artists., potential serious collabs.
I’m locked and loaded this time!
