just practising some little used forms for the sheer pleasure of it

short form trio.

Short form trio.

Grin and wear it.

Madrigal

Perennially an optimist
It’s not too hard to decide.
To always look on the bright side.

Not to be a pessimist
Happiness can’t be denied.
Perennially an optimist
To always look on the bright side.

Perennially an optimist
something I don’t try to hide.
I always wear my smile with pride.
Perennially an optimist
It’s not too hard to decide
to always look on the bright side.

Shadow play
Shadorma

Shadows hide
from the bright sunlight.
It is true
they must do
Though they return at twilight

Existensialism
Pensee

I think.
Therefore I am.
Many people do not think
but none the less they still exist.
They do not give a damn.
