ACT I CHAPTER 2
HOW TO AROUSE YOUR LOVER
MEET THE TWO ESTHERS


And so Romeo continued his search for Juliet. He thought back to a memory he had made when Esther was in one of her suspended states. He remembered hi days sitting on the white-flaked steps. Looking ahead, each flake of the warn away paint became teardrops that he wanted to shed for his dearly beloved Esther….torn apart in their youth, each seeking the answer to the question why? As the water fell down his face, he peered out of the space station window and watched as the morning sun rose over the Earth and carried his soul through the open air. He sought refuge in the eyes of the glowing light that had aroused the curiosity of the fair maiden.
Still Romeo was left in the dark. He returned to his suspended state and questioned the moon. As Romeo sat alone, he stared at a crater on the moon’s surface. He envisioned his beloved Juliet walking hand in hand with him on this new world he called Luna. As he awakened from his daydream, he saw her instead in the eyes of Esther on the planet below. Staring out of the glass porthole, he saw his home planet of Earth spinning below him. Landing in that far off theatre of dreams, he again envisioned living on that far away moon with his soul mate. Falling deeper within his own fantasy, he began to entwine the fancy with the poetic. Romeo had once again brought back the memory of Esther and strangely, somewhat to his surprise, he began to draw closer to his beloved Juliet. (Romeo was always safe in the arms of Juliet.)
Never before was Romeo so intent on making it back to his beloved Juliet. He had invented an art form that bordered on the obscene. How long he had wanted this moment to come. He needed space but he also needed the vision of his beloved once again in his mind and in his arms. He was never before so unaware of the situation now that he had looked at her from the inside with the sweet sounds of her melodies playing in his head.
Imagine, he was once a part of her but something happened along the way…and to coin a phrase, yesterday was all we had. They lived out their fantasy through the eyes of an actor…that unknown and sometimes untouchable tradition of living a dream in an unrealistic and make believe manner….reality sensed only when awakened by a child who longed for the moon in his eyes and the sun in his face.
Look to your left, now to your right….as we again prepare to leave the world of the realistic and journey into the unknown. Watch closely now and you will see…the power and the glory…the ecstasy and the truth. We return to her mind and her songs as they continue to inspire our youth.
Here's one for all the True Blue fans
If that means you then you must be willing to take a stand
From Borderline to Love Profusion
There can be only one conclusion
That Madonna has sung her way into your heart
There can be no doubt which way to start
Believing in her words and dancing to her beat
She has become the Queen of Pop without being discreet
Esther can change her name or Madonna can change her style
Either way you look at her, it's all worth while
Because when she talks… people listen to her every word
She has become a modern day Juliet with a message to be heard
So piss off if you can't Get Into Her Groove or buy her act . Because although, at times, she may fade away... she will always come back!
Romeo fell back on a memory and a feeling was evoked. Eyes that shined of blue at birth…mirrors of the soul reflected in the tear-dropped windows that housed her soul. She looked up at him and discovered herself. She found her sexuality but remained in the mind of the confused Queen of Pop. Looking up, she somehow knew that Romeo again called her name and Juliet came shining through. A memory was made….a memory was received. It seems as if the deja’vu continued to attract her attention. She was aroused and he was still confused. Would his beloved Esther return to the safety of Madonna or would Juliet come running to his side?
The question was never answered as he fell deeper within the hole of untold stories. Drifting back in time, we once again return to that far off land of make believe. The goddess is in the kitchen mixing with the artists. She offers them coffee but they prefer tea. (Juliet always preferred tea- a habit she picked up while living in England.) Anyway, the artists were pleased by her company and the Queen returned to the castle bedroom. She needed sleep but was too tired to call on the aid of her maid to change the satin sheets.
As she slept, Romeo returned and lifted her to the helm of the Enterprise. She had desperately wanted to meet Mr. Spock, but the logic of her questions were too much for Spock to answer. Romeo assured her that she would once again see the light, but first she had to understand the feelings that were locked within the glow of her own light. She was confused by this interpretation of the written word so she again returned to her suspended state and questioned the moon.
Romeo was so moved by her actions that he too returned to his suspended state and questioned the sun. They were to meet in the astral plane but somehow their wires got crossed and Romeo fell back to earth. Spinning down the endless hallway of darkness, he was saved by a vision he saw on the silver screen. It was Juliet as she appeared to him in his youth. She was so young and carefree. He remembered back to when he first appeared on the planet. He thought back to the children. Ah, yes, the children….playing in the open field that was now covered with blacktop. Singing in the theatre round that was now converted to house the remains of what was left of the Vietnam Conflict. He saw his childhood friend standing right in front of him but his right eye was missing and his hand held the nozzle of a flame thrower that was given to him by a veteran of WWII. He said they always gave him the leftovers. Romeo had no cause to doubt him. As Romeo walked away from the hero, he was told to keep up the fight until the allies returned or until he heard from Madonna or Barbra.
I hope the plot is not too intense for you all. Let us reflect back on the story and try to come to terms with our past. The future looks bright ahead so don’t get lost in the agony of the past. We all learn from our mistakes and hopefully correct what was wrong and make it right….But who is to say what is wrong and what is right? And how can we be sure that what is said to be right is not wrong...And what is said to be wrong is not right? Or if it is right, who’s to say that it was wrong? The answers are locked within the minds of the people, each knowing in their hearts when it is time to act in good faith to achieve a common goal. (Juliet knew this but still remained locked behind her sacred wall of illusion.)
As Romeo continued to break down the walls that appeared around Juliet, he was lost in a pool of emotion that seemed to be a distress call from the fair maiden. It seems as if he had stumbled on a lost part of his soul that remained in the heart of his dearly beloved Juliet. When he set out on this quest, he didn’t think it possible to be lost within an emotion. But the fact still remained; he had heard his mating call cry out across the airwaves. He continued on his journey, not knowing at what door to come knocking but knowing that the doors would be opened if he kept the faith. Keeping the faith meant keeping his love alive in her soul and the one thing Romeo was sure of was his love for Juliet.
When Romeo got caught in the world wide web of the goddess, he never envisioned that she could help him navigate across the universe. But in the back of his mind, he knew that she had the respect of the masses, the classes, and the creeds. He knew that she could plant the flowers if he could plant the seeds. It was one for all and all for one…It was done for her love and done for the fun. He knew that deep down inside, she was one of the little people that made his heart glow. He had seen his heart light coming from her eyes as he once again beamed back to the memory of her beauty. If he was to get caught in the web, he was glad that it was the web of this queen bee of love….for he had no fear when he flew up above with the dove. He knew that Juliet was his friend from now until the end.
A friend is someone who stands beside…
when we need a helping hand to take a stand
A friend is someone who stands beside…
when we are in deep despair and need someone to care
A friend is a star who truly becomes a guiding light…
and reaches out to an artist who becomes a fan to give her sight
A friend is a woman who takes time to see…
that Juliet may be the person that becomes a friend to you and me
A friend is someone who stands beside...
when we find a mate and set a wedding date
Yes, a friend will stand beside thru old and new, thru borrowed and blue
because a friend is also a reflection of you.
Thru good times and thru bad...try not to get too sad.
When sadness and loneliness take control of your life…
we must rise above and start with Love.
From family and friends, from lovers who care…
we must be willing to change, we must be willing to share
If we can look to the future with light in our eyes...
we can overcome the heartaches, the sadness and the sighs
For it's the little things that we do that will make us feel new.
Who knew? …A friend in Juliet may just be a friend in you
Lift up, lift off….We once again take to the skies as our story continues. If the mood is right and the atmosphere is set, then our journey will continue. The candle is lit and the flame flickers as we begin our ascension into the world of surrealistic fantasies and unknown passion. Deeper and deeper we travel, sometimes not knowing where and sometimes not knowing why, but we set out on this journey into the unknown in order to answer many long lost questions.
The universe is said to be endless. Our mind is said to be endless when we break down the walls and look to the future using our imagination. Look now to the future and you will find your past. Look back to the past and you will find your future. Look into her eyes and you will find your love. Look for the glowing light and you will find the heart of all mankind. Look in the eyes a child and you will see yourself. Romeo looked out of the porthole and returned to the Enterprise.
When Romeo returned to the Enterprise, Spock greeted him with open arms. This was a curious gesture by Spock, but he told Romeo that he was also half human and sometimes needed affection. Romeo was confused and once again sought refuge in the arms of the fair maiden. He searched his mind but Juliet was nowhere to be found. What was he feeling? Why did Spock act that way? Where was Juliet to be found?...In the arms of her ex-husband?...In the eyes of Esther?...In the soul of Yentl?...In the body of Madonna?...or perhaps she was still in the foreign land of his allies….waiting to see the light from Madonna. Romeo could not handle the questions so he made a memory and returned to the safety of the dark cave.
Romeo awoke with sleep in his eyes. He peered over to his right and caught a glimpse of Juliet. She was still asleep but retained the elegance he had seen in the eyes and actions of Madonna. He thought ahead to a memory he had made in the time of her youth. Falling deeper within himself, the songbird once again appeared and sang her lullaby to herself. In sweet metaphors of passion she sang. Evoking a long lost melody, Romeo was lost and found within the sound. It moved him to cry and he fell to the ground. As he opened his eyes, he was drowned within her emotion. His tearstained eyes were still dry so he left the memory and returned to the sky.
As night fell on the land of real life make believe, the snow-covered hilltops began to melt and the evergreen forest of unknown delight made each season seem right. It was a love for all seasons. Through seasons of joy and seasons of light…a love for all seasons was what made each season seem right. It was a time of love…it was a time of joy…it was a time in our youth when we were a girl and a boy. No time to fight and no time to hate…it was a time of our history…in the sixties...it was a time of our fate. Where did it go? For who was it spent? Was it a time to question or a time to repent? Will it come again? Could it come again? Should it come again? Was it so long ago? Was it so far away? Can’t it be tomorrow? Can’t it be today? Who is to say if we all fade away? Will we return to the moon? Can we return to the Eagle’s nest? Why is money the meaning of success and happiness is only second best? The answers lie within, the answers lie without…the answers come together when no one has a doubt.
Begin Again We Must
For in the beginning there was chaos, confusion and then exhilaration
Yet in the transformation there is a new star
In the distance, on the horizon
Over water…seas that wave for expression
Oceans that wander to the edge of tomorrow
Here lies the beginning…if not the end
For begin again we must
To see the land, the color of the eyes, the lights and the perception
Begin again we must
To behold the rally, to marvel at the scene
To relive the movie, to watch the magic appear on the screen
Here lies the beginning…Here lies the end
To begin in the future
Yet, to know why and when
Begin again we must
For, you see, to begin is to start
And to start is to relive
Yet, to begin again we must
We must begin again to give….
I hope you are still deeply involved in the story. Sometimes it runs deep and sometimes it runs to the lazy river in our mind. It is for the reader to question and for the writer to seek. It is for the common goal that I return to the land of the meek. The child in us all is always meek and small but the memories that we made in our youth will always lead us back to find the truth.
I hope that this story is not too deep for you all. If it is then follow your heart and it will give you your start. Can you catch my meaning?...Can you catch my rhyme?...Can you follow your feelings that carry through time? If you stay tuned, the story may once again take on a familiar theme…Like that of the age old story of two star-crossed lovers who need the affection of the other to bring about the end of a lifelong search. Juliet has once again entered our story and changed the mood.
When Romeo awoke from his sleep, he wandered out of the cave and into the light. He saw the dove take off and soar through the heavens with the American eagle. He asked himself if these two birds had feelings and if they did…what were they feeling and for whom did they feel? As he gazed into the sun, he found that he too could fly. Oh, how he could fly…up above, in the skies of love. As he peered down to earth, he noticed his survival string that was attached to his body. He looked to his left and saw the dove. He looked to his right and found the eagle. He looked within and found himself. He looked above and saw Juliet. She was floating free with the breeze. She was flying free with the songbird. Romeo heard her call his name and he was forever caught in her ecstasy. Was the moment about to come when he would once again be in the loving arms of his dearly beloved Juliet? Romeo questioned the moon and another memory was evoked.
He thought back to his days in the sun and how she made him feel. The feeling was once again to be his and hers. As he got lost in a memory, he saw the light, his light, in the eyes of Juliet. The time was to be at hand, in his fingertips, in his heart, in his soul, in his body. Or was it? Romeo thought he had asked himself all the right questions. He thought he had found the answer to the question Why?...then it happened. What happened? Did they make love? Did he caress her skin? Did she caress his? Did he touch her in such a way that she would cry out and long for more? Did he touch her in places that she never dreamed could exist? Did she like the way he made her feel? The answers were to follow but Juliet drifted up and out and got lost behind her sacred wall. (Romeo thought he had broken through her walls to find the treasure of love but found the key to the treasure locked within his words.)
Family and friends, pets and toys
These are the things that bring us joys
Loving and laughter, happiness and pleasure
These are the dreams that all of us treasure
To be caring and loving, to be gentle and true
These are the feelings that make us feel new
Emotions of the heart that take meaning through the eyes
These are the feelings that no one can hide
Soft spoken words that only true lovers can hear,
Take hold of a heart and carry us near
The sweet smell of roses, the taste of sweet wine
The melody of a gentle love song enters the mind
The candle is lit, the mood is just right
The magic of love will be delivered tonight
The fire burns brightly and smoke fills the air
You reach for each other, there’s love everywhere
The power takes hold, it starts from within
Your senses lose control, your head starts to spin
The romance that has blossomed takes hold of the heart
You reach for each other to let the feelings start
Your bodies bring you warmth, you never felt so free
You see each other’s eyes, you feel the ecstasy
You look through the eyes and into the soul
Your body seems to shiver, your head seems to roll
You feel each other’s kiss, your eyes close as one
The magic fills your senses, the secret is undone
The passion is now endless, the feeling is secure
Your dreams become reality, you long for much more
The feeling has you floating; you see your lives as one
You see your soul in her; she sees what love has done
Love is the feeling you take to your bed
Your hearts beat as one as you rest each other’s head
And now the moment finally comes,
When once you were two, now you are one
Together in a world where souls seek the truth
The love that you make brings you back to your youth
The passion is unending, you’re careless and you’re free
You know now in your heart that this was meant to be
You want this night forever; you want this feeling to last
You think ahead to the future and back on the past
You see that love has the power, it has and always will
It has given your life a meaning; it has given your life a thrill
You awake in the morning, together in the arms,
Of a lover you can’t resist, a person with all the charms
You remember the night before, the feeling stirs within
The passion still burns inside, the love again begins
Again you see the eyes and the soul that lies inside
And again you feel the warmth and the love that lies beside
You realize now that love will guide your life
You look to the eyes of your lover, you become like husband and wife
As the day begins to unfold and you reflect upon the night
You know now in your heart that love has made it right
You see that God is love and love is a delight
So now you pass each day with joy
And you see through the eyes of a girl and a boy
And so the time was not to be at hand. Juliet disappeared and Romeo withdrew deeper within the hole of untold stories…Meanwhile, back on the Enterprise, Spock was receiving S.O.S. calls from the planet below. Romeo was beamed aboard the Enterprise and questioned his first officer. Apparently, the distress calls were coming from the heart of the fair maiden. Romeo once again looked out of the portholes of his mind and questioned the sun. Was it Juliet who was calling to him or was it the general public of the Earth? Why were his emotions being tested or were they just being relived? Can an emotion be relived?
It seems as if another body on Earth had just developed “the cancer”. Can a soul continue to live in a body that had just developed “the cancer”? What is “the cancer” and where did it come from? Does it have a cure? Will it ever be cured? If miracles exist, from whom do they come? If they come, for whom are they for? If we pray for them to happen, will someone hear our calls? For whom do we call? Where do we call from and where do we call to? Somewhere in our hearts?...Somewhere in our minds?...Somewhere in the universe?...Where in the universe?...Are there other life forms in the universe?...Do their people develop “the cancer”? For whom do they call? Can anyone hear their call? It makes you wonder…but then again, so does the universe and so does our mind. The story will continue on as we travel through time….out of the surreal and into the sublime.
You’ll have to forgive me; my mind is working overtime in order to come up with an answer to a very deep felt principle that has affected the life of the writer as well as the general public. Where do we go for answers when our lives take a step toward the tragic? With the loss of two American space shuttles and numerous lives, where do we run when our lives are emotionally affected by the loss of our heroes and loved ones? How do we deal with death and can our losses be comforted by a higher being?
It seems that sometimes we don’t tell those we love how much we really love them while they are alive. Sometimes we want to tell them but we never take the time. Sometimes we find the time but we don’t find the courage. Then, one day, those very special people we have always loved take off and leave. Sometimes they leave us and are never seen again…Or are they? What is the astral plane and who lives there? Can a soul be saved by another in the astral plane? If they can, will they hear our prayers? Can they hear this prayer? If they can hear me, can they see me? If they see me…can they feel me? If they can feel me, can they reach me? If they can reach me, can they reach out and touch the body and soul of a loved one? If they can, I pray that they hear this prayer…The story will continue after these few words from the heart. If you can read me, I hope they can hear me.
The time has once again come to travel on an inward ecstasy and find the feelings that will lead us back from the tragedies and into the story. They may be hard to find in the surrealistic state of mind…but then again, they may be easy to find in the love state of mind. Can love be so far away if we can feel its effects on our heart and soul? After all, this is a love story of the heart and soul. And when emotions of the heart are brought to the surface, we must expect the unexpected to happen. The unexpected sometimes leads us into the world of the true romantic and the true romantic sometimes leads us into the world of the broken-hearted. They say that the broken heart will heal in time, even if it takes a lifetime or many lifetimes to heal that heart.
Romeo tried to find the logic in his Juliet and came across the written word. “He who is strong is one who can control his or her passions.” The words made sense but were very hard to live by. (Juliet knew this as well, if not better than Romeo). In order to control your passion, you first must know what that word really means. Romeo looked back through time and tried to find the meaning in the eyes of Esther. Romeo was not the only one who wanted to know… as Barbra was still running free, hoping to catch a glimpse of Juliet in the eyes of Esther.
As the mood changes so does our story. It is in the tradition of the wandering spirit that I write. And so, as the spirit moves us onward, upward and outward, our fairytale play continues in the American spirit….bringing life to the lifeless and love to the loveless. Inward and outward, onward and upward…our story brings us back to the castle as the Queen of Pop is in the kitchen counting her money. She just got up and sat down in her red Queen’s chair and began to read one of her children’s books to her two children. (She always looked to her children for advice when developing a new book because, like Spock, they always gave her the most logical answers.)
As the Queen looks up, she sees the stranger of her dreams standing in the moonlight. (The kitchen and the bedroom each had a moon roof). As the stranger moved in closer to the Queen, he looked into the magic mirror and saw the face of Juliet in the eyes of Romeo. He said his name was Danny and disappeared into her magic mirror. Could this be true or are we entering into the twilight zone! It was indeed twilight because all objects in the room became silhouette. The sun became the moon and the moon became fixed in the eyes of the fair maiden. She had once again cast her spell on Romeo and caught him in her world wide web. As the Queen moved in closer to Danny, the candle was lit and the spirit of the long lost romance was once again felt.
Will you continue to speak to me in silent tones? In my sleep…while I dream…I continue to see your eyes…I see them beam
Oh, sweet angel will you enter my life?....Will you treat me nice?....become closer than a wife
Speak to me in waves of pleasure
Oh, sweet angel; it is our love that I will always treasure
I am forever in your soul…
Forever searching to find my role
Should I act? Should I obey?
Oh, sweet angel please come my way
Speak to me…in my mind, in my heart
Oh, sweet angel give me my start
I call out to you in my hour of need
Oh, sweet angel, you have planted the seeds
…in my heart, my mind, my soul and my past
Oh, sweet angel won’t you please make these feelings last?
If I speak of love…
Would you understand?
If I speak of beauty…
In what form would it exist?
You beauty has blinded me with love
Look in your magic mirror and see my light in your eyes
So that I may look at you again from the inside
As the moon began to split, the stranger once again looked into the magic mirror and found Madonna. He had expected the Queen to reappear but Esther was too innocent and remained trapped within her soul. Juliet tried to come through but the Queen was recalled to the kitchen and asked Barbra there for tea. As these two fair maidens drank their tea, they began to count their money but secretly desired to be with Romeo in the arms and eyes of Danny. Danny was to become the stranger to the mislead Queen of real life make believe but he had to first break down the imaginary walls that appeared around the Queen and her castle. After all, he was a part of Romeo and Juliet was a part of the Queen. She knew that Danny needed her innocence over and above the material values of the Queen and her castle. As the stranger moved in closer to Madonna, Romeo appeared in the moonlight and called out to Juliet. Madonna was confused, the stranger was aroused and Romeo fell deeper within the hole of untold stories.
As you can see, Juliet was beginning to take control of Romeo. She was now able to change the mood in an upward direction- If you get my meaning. Could it be that his Juliet was to be found in the eyes of Esther? It was up to Madonna to come to the rescue of the fair maiden. It was up to the fair maiden to come to the aid of Madonna. It was up to Barbra to come to the aid of the Queen. It was up to the Queen to come to the aid of herself. But could she? Did she have enough courage to come to the aid of herself? Did she have enough courage in herself to come to terms with her past? Could she still remember her past or was she being tempted by the fruits of another? Did she want to remember her past or did she want to hide behind her sacred wall of darkness and not let the sun shine through? Did she still control her free will or was it lost within the words of an unknown character of a long forgotten novel? The answers are to be found in the heart and soul of Juliet, if she is able to break down the walls and look herself in the eyes. (Juliet knew in her heart that the eyes were like a mirror of her soul and that they would never lie to her. Romeo knew this as well, but was never given the chance to look himself in her eyes.)
Our journey has taken us within the lost dimension of time and space but has delivered us back into the dark and dusty caves of the sublime and caverns of the surreal. Who would have thought that this story would lead us even deeper within the hole of untold stories! Oh well, the show must go on even if the play actors have not yet seen the light. It’s easy to see, it’s easy to find….the secrets lie within…the secrets of the mind.
Sometimes we travel our world and evoke feelings from the past, but when love comes along, the feelings always last. On the roads from London, England to Sunset Blue…from Brooklyn, New York to a life we knew…From the sunny hills of a California beach…to the sand-covered shores of an island of reach. From deep down south to way up high…it’s the loving and the laughter that drifts by and by. It’s a place in time, it’s a place in space…it’s the meaning of love…it’s the future of our race. Take heed and look. Take heed and find. Take heed to question and you will take heed of your mind. The answers lie within, the answers lie without….the answers come together when no one has a doubt.
And so our story leads us back to the place where we once began. Romeo continues his search for his beloved Juliet while each questions the sincerity of the other. It is indeed a foolish game of the heart and must be brought to the silver screen for all to see. The casting calls have been made and the players have been tested. It is now in the hands of the people to decide. Or is it? Does Madonna want her story to be brought to the silver screen or does she want to hide behind the wall of illusion built by her fame? Will we ever know? Will she ever ask? Will Danny ever see? Does she want him to see? Can she still see behind her walls? The bleeding hearts and artists await her action as they continue to bang their heads against the wall. Will the wall begin to fall or will Esther be invited to the ball?
And so our story must once again stop here for a moment in time. Remember, love has no measure of time…We must stop here for a moment in order to once again get our thoughts straight and wonder if we are living in the land of make believe or if we are about to enter the land of the promised Space above. There are many questions that are left unanswered and there are many answers that are left unquestioned. Where will our story lead us? Who will enter our story and will they stay? What ever became of Yentl? What ever became of Esther? Who will see the light and who will run with fright? Who will find the final cut? Who will find the act the faith? When will the time be at hand? Will the time ever come when Romeo and Juliet become as one? Is this story real or is it a play of the mind? Stay tuned and the questions may lead us to find many new answers.
As the story continues to unfold, the characters will begin to unfold and the story may even be sold. If anyone can hear this call then it may be time to escape from it all. If anyone can hear my plea then maybe my eyes will continue to see. I hope that I haven’t lost the reader even though I may have lost myself. If you can see your start then follow your heart. That’s all I can say to see us through. These words are my heart and my heart beats for you…the sad and the lonely, the desperate and the few…the dreamers of the heart and the dreamers of the blue. The spirit is in me and also with you. Someone once told me somewhere in time, if you really do care…you must be willing to share. I try to live up to those words even if they bring me heartache and pain. For if I was to die, then maybe, just maybe, these words would remain and my lifetime on this earth will not have been in vain.
I think I hear a voice from the Enterprise so I must once again beam up and out. And so this chapter must come to an end. It seems that Romeo has aroused Juliet but the final act of faith continued to stray. While aboard the Enterprise, Romeo has met some new friends that he wants you to remember…He said they were once heroes but a new generation has almost forgotten their names. Their names were Neil and Buzz and they were the first two of twelve men that have actually walked on the moon (Luna). He said to keep their names in mind as we enter the next chapter.
Romeo was last seen watching a surrealistic Lucas space movie on the space station. He said it was episode VII or VIII. I wonder if George ever heard the calls from the other side of the wall. He must have heard the voice from inside. After all, his movies were seen by the crew of the Enterprise and they all respected his vision and looked to him for help in their hour of need….For they knew that he was a pioneer and a fellow Trekkie.
It seems to me that places in the heart are where the emotions will start and if you feel the tears of joy you will see through the eyes of a girl and a boy. So if you love him, let him know and if you don’t then let him go. For true love will never die but only grow stronger in each and every lifetime. Romeo leaves you with words of wisdom that were sung to him in his youth… “There will be answer….Let it Be”…..Let us be as one….Let us see as one…Isn’t it time? Romeo was lost in a dream as he pondered at this question. The lights went dim, the candle flame flickered and the chapter finally came to an end.
-
Somewhere at Cocoa Beach, Florida
Welcome, the Inn Space Place
Welcome, the deep space race
To one and all, to large and small
Welcome, to the pioneers of a new space and time
Welcome, to this story of reality and rhyme
The reality began on a late sixties date
It was here that we sat; it is here that we wait
On a pad, by the sea
In a space, in a place called Cape Kennedy
Atop the Saturn, atop the Five
To the moon and back, the pioneers survived
Waiting and counting, hoping to see
The new Space Inn, a place to be
Welcome, the Inn Space Place
I hear the station is new, I hear the people are true
Hope to see it soon, you know, Tranquility Base, the moon!
Houston, can you copy, can you hear?
It's really lonely out in the blue
Well, it's not that blue when the sky turns black
It's only a three day ride (and a free ride back)
This story took place not so long ago
Can you remember the story, can you recall the show?
They called it Mercury, Gemini, and Project Apollo
They brought true a dream in a time of tomorrow
First there was Neil and Buzz who set foot on the moon from Apollo 11
Then ten more astronauts lived on our moon as we continued to reach out into heaven
But where did they go? Apollo 18, 19, and 20
We achieved our goal so they took our money...
They took our money, but not our suits
They took our rover, but not our boots
We still have the rocks, we left behind the prints
We still have the money, we still have the mints
So Washington, please print some soon
Please, Mr. Politician, have you ever FELT the moon?
Welcome, the Inn Space Place
Welcome, the deep space race
The deep space race is about to begin
And we know in our hearts why we must win
From Mars or the Moon, from Jupiter or Pluto’s moon, Charon
Wherever we land, hand in hand, woman and man...
There's a place for us… There is a place...SOMEWHERE in space.
Let us now look back through time to continue my Emotion that will continue my rhyme...As Romeo continues to call out to Juliet...the faces may change and so to the names but it seems that in each generation the love songs continue to remain the same. Let us now complete Chapter 2 and enter into another space and time where the voices may yet turn out to be surreal but the faces remain sublime.
