Daniel Thompson song

found this old song looking for a flashlight....written in maybe 2003 for Cleveland's own Danny T.

the browns of his eyes
are whiskey and cola
whites of em bright
as ten old st nick souls

aw a picture cant tell him
to someone aint know him
here's to wishin him on
heres to wishin him on

ringer of silence
pops, the old man of color
sellor of sea shell shaped
stanzas and chorus of beard

cleveland wont have him next year
heres to wishin him on
heres to wishin him on
                                                                      image by Steven B. Smith
speaker of truth                                                        
when u know that he's lying                                                                                                      
whistles a deuce
when he mays well be cryin
great folders manilla
store up his poems
so he finds the right one
to put someone at home

ringer of silence
the old man of color
sellor of junkyard poems
medicine beard

cleveland wont have him next year
heres to wishing him on
heres to wishing him on
