               Ready or not
               come and get me.
               Cmon all ready…
               I'm tired of hiding,
               Please come and get me.

               Hey, are you even playing?
               I've been hiding here
               for what seems like a lifetime.
               Now come and get me,
               like Now, while were still young.
               Oh well…..
               Whatever!

               Ok, Tag… you're it ha ha ha,
               can't catch me now can ya??
               How slow are you anyway tee hee,
               catch me if you can.
               Oh cmon, you can run faster
               than that can't you?

               Olly Olly oxen free…
               Ready or not (I am)
               Here I come…..
               Where are you???
               I'm looking for you!

               I think I see you…
               Could that be you???
               Hiding behind the altar..
               or behind those eyes
               In your eyes….
               In your painting???

               Am I getting closer??
               Am I hot…getting warmer..
               warmer…. warmer…
               Uh…colder…colder..
               Where are you????

               Cmon….hide and seek
               isn't fun playing all by myself.
               You are making this much too
               hard tonight.
               Games are supposed to be easy.

               Last one in is a rotten egg!
               cmon and run…
               don't make me beg.
               I got your pawns,
               I've got your rook,
               Don't make me take your queen
               Checkmate, hey, why the frown…
               why that look?

              Well then you pick the game.
              What do you want to play???
              I've been guessing and choosing
              it seems like all day.

              Red rover red rover
              can Baba come over?
              Hey I've got it….
              let's look for a 4 leaf clover!
              Ahhh…you're much to slow,
              I've found one already,
              so I'm making my wish.
              Can you guess what it is?

              Star light, star bright
              first star I see tonight
              I wish I may I wish I might
              have this wish I wish tonight
              I wish:
              to be totally absorbed
              into my Beloved's Light

              Are you even trying?
              You are such a good sport.
              I think you are just…
              letting me win, throwing the match.
              But I won't be mad,
              I promise I won't cry,
              if you win the game Baba,
              even when I die.

              After this dream and illusion is gone,
              I hope you do win.
              For I am your pawn, your puzzle piece,
              and even in defeat, I would still
              be the winner.

              So please put me back,
              tuck me away….
              Into your own personal ToyBox.
              And take me out again,
              on a rainy, cloudy or sunlit day,
              because with YOU my sweet lord,
              I'm always ready to play.

              Well Baba, I'm tired now
              guess I'll try to go back
              to sleep.
              I hope next time it's easier
              maybe we could play kick the can
              out in the street.

              I'll see you tommorrow
              and we'll do it all again
              I really do Love you
              my very playful friend.
