I left the window open
In came the night
The day escaped my clutches
Flew away with light

I Left The Window Open And In Came A Genie

~ Frank Solanki ~ 49 Comments

I left the window open and in came a genie
He granted me three wishes but I asked for many
He didn’t budge at all so I finally agreed
“Will they come true?”, I asked. “Oh yes, indeed.”
So I asked for money and a smokin’ hot wife
I also asked the genie for a better life
He burst out laughing. He asked me if I was a clown
He had never heard a better joke from anyone in town
I stood there confused watching the genie laugh
At my very expense, he had a chuckle enough
“If you never intended, why sneak in at all
To grant me three wishes when nobody called?”
The genie said, “I can give you gold and cash
Litter this little house of yours with diamond studded trash
But I can’t grant you a better life than the one you’ve already got
If you also have for yourself a wife who’s smokin’ hot.”

I Left The Window Open And A Dame Came In

~ Frank Solanki ~ 55 Comments

I left the window open
And a dame came in
Pretty and beautiful
She found a spot within
A little soft corner in
The depths of my heart
She stayed for a little while
Then things fell apart
She left me and was gone
Except her memory
Now she’ll be in my head
As an unsolved mystery
Where would she be now?
Is there a clue to show?
I wonder sometimes why
She came in through the window

I Left The Window Open And Boredom Came In

~ Frank Solanki ~ 47 Comments

I left the window open
And boredom came in
I dropped my pen and paper
All that I was writin’
A little while later
She took her leave, was gone
‘Twas far too late now
The damage was done

God Wrote A Poem

God wrote a poem
Out came you
I’ve written a thousand
None like you

The Greatest Castle In The Land

~ Frank Solanki ~ 57 Comments

To make her feel
My love was real
I called an army of men
To pick a stone
And build a dome
The greatest castle in the land
Deftly skilled
In the art of build
The army at my command
I marched them on
With a marching song
For the greatest castle in the land
No weathers last’d
A hundred summers passed
Everything went as planned
To my queen I told
Lo! And behold
The greatest castle in the land
She gave a cry
The roof touched the sky
She never’d seen something so grand
I opened the door
Gave her a tour
Of the greatest castle in the land
Every little corner
Brought delight to her
She tightly held my hand
Full of love
Like the heavens above
Was the greatest castle in the land
Joy filled our days
We knew no other ways
Only the angels could understand
How full of love
Like the heavens above
Was the greatest castle in the land
A hundred more summers went
With the time we spent
In the monument that still does stand
The sun still sings aloud
With the moon and clouds
For the greatest castle in the land
The seas may dry
Forests may cry
All knocks it will withstand
For it is full of love
Like the heavens above
The greatest castle in the land

Love Is The Answer

~ Frank Solanki ~ 63 Comments

For a while I’ve been wondering
Just what love could be
Is it the same feeling that I
Have when you’re with me
It seems like fortune’s smiling
When I hold you close
All the joys keeps piling
In my eyes it shows
I guess that’s the answer
Love is the answer
…
Remember when you asked me
Just what love could mean
May be it is bliss or truth
Or something in between
Let’s call the angels down
From the heavens above
If they see us together
They’ll know just what is love
It seems that’s the answer
Love is the answer
…
You know you’re the closest
To just what love could be
Put your hand in my hand
Put your trust in me
Love keeps us together
Forget the world outside
We may not know what love is
But we feel it inside
I feel that’s the answer
Love is the answer

I Can’t Love You More Than I Do

~ Frank Solanki ~ 58 Comments

I can’t love you more than I do
My heart is filled with thoughts of you
There is no more space in my heart
I fear it might fall apart
If I let myself love you like I do
…
I can’t love you more than I do
I’ve dedicated my heart to you
There is nothing left with me
You are all that I always see
Lift me up and pull me through
…
I can’t love you more than I do
Yet I feel that this love is new
I can’t wait till we’re one
Under this bright blissful sun
That shines above me and you
…
I can’t love you more than I do
My heart keeps coming back to you
I don’t ever lose my way
Just like the dark night follows day
My heart keeps following you
…
I can’t love you more than I do
But you always prove me untrue
You keep expanding my heart
And it never falls apart
There’s just so much to love in you
I guess I can love you more than I do

A Girl Like You

~ Frank Solanki ~ 56 Comments

When darkness and silence reined my day
I needed a little calm to come my way
To desolation I bid adieu
I so needed a girl like you
…
Loneliness and sadness had become my friends
Depressing thoughts in my head had no ends
You turned the grey skies to blue
How I wanted a girl like you
…
My empty heart had a giant hole
That spread across and destroyed my soul
You filled the void anew
I always wished for a girl like you
…
The sands of time fell off from my hand
My isolate fate lay in a faraway land
An angel’s touch was overdue
How I longed for a girl like you
…
You brought my life back on track
Changed it to bright white from dark black
Now that I’ve got you
I’d like another girl like you

Don’t Let Those Tears Drop

~ Frank Solanki ~ 54 Comments

Baby don’t you ever let your tears drop
I’m right by your side so please make them stop
I’ll do anything to make you smile again
There’ll be no reason to complain
Baby I can’t see you crying in this pain
…
Baby don’t you ever let your tears drop
Smile a little and please make them stop
I’ll narrate a funny joke to you
Dedicate a song for you
But baby don’t you cry like you do
…
Baby don’t you ever let your tears drop
I’ll sing a song to make those tears stop
Baby why don’t you smile so wide?
I am right by your side
I just hate to see you teary eyed
So it’s time to make those tears stop
Baby don’t you ever let those diamonds drop
