Magic, Mystery and Mayhem Too
A Monday Magical Mystery CPCCC
by Steve Cope
02-02-2009
The innaugural edition of a new forum at the CPCCC
With Lady Seda

Magic is in the air,
Can't you feel it without a care?
When the days get too long and
The woes of the hours become too moribund,
Just take a deep breath and smell,
The magic in the air.

When the sun beams down on your hair
And the cheeks you have are so fair
Won't you please my chickadee incline your ear
For I have to say there is magic in the Air!

What amazing things can happen
When upon the wonders of the world you do ponder
You could be inspired to run willy nilly never mind the mishappen.
Or better yet you could yell and say "Hey over yonder

Don't you feel the magic in the new born day?"
What a marvel and what a land of opportunity in our way
That magical moment when from the snoring you do awake
And realize that once again the Lord has blessed with a blank page.

Oh the mystery of it all, what to do from beginning to end?
Which way to go.  Does duty call, or does upon another each moment depend.
Oh the marvel, the wonder, the potentional that is before us.
Will today be the day we can finally stop taking the bus?

Oh the mystery, oh the wonder of it all.  Listen to the phone
It's ringing, it's blaring, "why won't it leave me alone!"
Oh, hark!  Listen carefully!  A bird does call out unto me.
"Come, come (insert your name here)and I will take you out to sea."

Oh the wonder, oh the amazing dazing thrill of it all
What day can we take and make our own?  I'll tell you  Monday call
My day of mystery, magic and mayhem.  Go ahead and give it a go
Chunk the day at work (if only we could afford it) and play in the snow.

Oh the wonder, oh the mystery, oh the magic of it all
Won't you take this day and into it place everything and fall
Peacefully to sleep in the even time, because you have had a blast
And filled another day with magic, mystery, and mayhem at last.

Oh the magic, oh the mystery, of the mayhem we could wreak
If only were it not for the real world in which we live
Pulling us back into reality Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday, the whole darn week!
Oh but do not despair for on any given day to fantasy you can cleave,

For wherever there is paper and ink, or cyber paper and pen,
There will always be a way to bring a little joy, magic, mystery akin
To joy and mayhem too if the muse so strikes we who call ourselves writers.
Won't you join me in this day, this day of magic, mystery and mayhem?

Oh the mayem, the mystery, the magic
With pen and ink white, yellow, brown our even magenta whee!
The day can turn into whatever you wish and still live in the package
Called life here on the planet earth where I have to go wee!!!!!!!!!

Oh how grateful this writer is for the gift
Oh the magical mystery that was given by He.
As a sickly little boy the books were plied,
As my family outside did play inside I did lay.

Covered in crossword puzzles and sci-fi and
Oh the many places I did go, even when outside I was far from.
Oh the magic and the wonder to see Mars through the eyes of John Carter.
Oh the mayhem I did read and imagined I was there in the midst.

Oh the magic, oh the mystery, oh the mayhem we are all able to wreak
Pray though does this servant in Christ that each new day of every week
We will seek to uplift and to elate
Before the world comes to an end and it's too late.

Oh the magic, the mystery, the mayhem
The Lady Seda has unleashed with the new Magical Monday.
Lord in Your mighty way may You cover and watch over those who come
And bless them for using their talents to cheer, elate, and cause
such wonderful magic, mystery, and mayhem.

Serving Him by serving you,
Copenator out!
servant in Christ
