Venus on The Half Shell

Verse 1:
Botticelli had a dream
He had a vision
It flowed like a stream
Because of his decision

To paint a woman so fair
None would doubt her beauty
He could not paint her on air
Should he show her booty?

Chorus 1:
Venus newborn
In Greek mythology
Not in science
Or in anthropology

Verse 2:
Proudly displayed at Uffizi Gallery
In Florence it pays many a salary
An icon of the Italian Renaissance
So famous with a great response

You stand so tall and large
With your long flowing lines
Seeing you is such a tall charge
Best some very fine wines

Chorus 2:
Venus newborn
In Greek mythology
Nude on the giant scallop
Not on a horse at gallup

Verse 3:
Were you for the Medici family 
Or someone else entirely
For some this is agony
For me its not even in my diary

Inspired by the Sistine chapel?
So much beauty in Rome
Or perhaps it was eve’s apple
That drove you home






2 Poems about Venus:

1.
Venus Transiens
BY AMY LOWELL
Tell me,
Was Venus more beautiful
Than you are,
When she topped
The crinkled waves,
Drifting shoreward
On her plaited shell?
Was Botticelli’s vision
Fairer than mine;
And were the painted rosebuds   
He tossed his lady
Of better worth
Than the words I blow about you
To cover your too great loveliness   
As with a gauze
Of misted silver?

For me,
You stand poised
In the blue and buoyant air,
Cinctured by bright winds,
Treading the sunlight.
And the waves which precede you   
Ripple and stir
The sands at my feet.



2.
Her eyes draw a heavenly peace to mind,
Where the green color of the sea doth dwell.
Her face is a beauteous wishing well,
Which reveals her splendor to all mankind.
Her golden hair gently blows in the wind,
As she sails across the sea on a shell.
Any attentive viewer's eyes can tell
That her figure was carefully designed.
Zephyr and Chloris continue blowing
Their perpetual winds over her head.
The pink flowers of beauty keep flowing
Across the landscape in which she is led.
Towards the shoreline her seashell keeps going,
As the Hora of Spring robes her in red.

Like all here, I’m just trying to leave an echo !   Just trying to say I was here. How lucky are we to live in an age when that is possible?

reverend coldheart records with : mike shea, guitar whiz and sound designer, usually at his studio ;  mike hogan, who is a gifted bass player, usually in my kitchen ; joe ferguson, who is the original congregation and who started all this out with a christmas uke  ~   It's his fault !

Also, I’ve been jamming with Jarod, Tek, Gary and Shelbie on Sundays in a little white house out past Stilesville. We record under the name “makebelieve”. Hope to post some jams every now and then .

Since October 2023, Sunday jams with Gman and Reggie.  We record under name of:   “the charlatans”.  Or lately, the Sunday Jam.

Been recording solo
Fer a little while now at
Old man yells at cloud studios 
If you’ve read this far: Thank you
You know more about me than the people who surround me on a daily basis.  Being creative is the only thing that makes sense to me right now.  So, I’m gonna keep creating. 
I wonder what’s next?
Looking forward 


Thank you for listening
