After tonight's Game Show, I shared our Lyrics thread (nearby in Schmooze) with my co-host Sunshine. She really liked the lyrics and had a suggestion. She said why not write one stanza of lyrics and then the next person writes the next one and so on, creating a cycle story of lyrics?

I replied that we used to do that with "cycle stories" back in college. One friend had an electric typewriter that ran on batteries and printed out on paper. (they were a transition between typewriters and computers in the 1980's). The first person wrote a paragraph, then passed it to the next person who wrote another and so on. The more we drank the funnier it got, into the wee hours of the morning.

So why don't we give that a try? Rules: must stick to one topic and write one stanza per post. In honor of Sunshine, I choose the topic to be: "Sunshine". Here, I'll start.


Sunshine with your rays so bright
You bring joy into my life
A great friend you've been to me
Let's share good times eternally


Your turn.

Les

Sunshine - as a friend of mine
You walk beside me down the line
Sometimes it seems like you’re my wife
I appreciate it so – just want to let you know
Sometimes it cuts me like a knife

Sunshine the light reveals
the wonder a man feels
sunshine the warmth that cares
beware of solar flares...

But when I'm in your rays too long
I start to sing a different song.
The music takes darker turn
when sunshine causes me to burn.

Haha, you thought this thread was dead, yet I breathe new life unto it this Thanksgiving morning! Below are lyrics that need completion. The story goes that two internet friends meet up after all those years apart and it turns out to be on the deathbed of one of them. They both celebrate the moment. That's the theme anyway but this is a cyble story so take it wherever you wish.

Quote:
Ode tto Kassen

Oh the times we could have had
The times we should have had
But now we meet my friend
On your death bed

'tis bittersweet to meet you
In this way and time
Yet if i wished upon a star
I'd call my friends from afar
