Sacred Place
That sacred place remains for us, where touch and taste absorb our hearts
And leave us sensate in its wake, the doors will open wider
The animal is stripped from me, the angelbreath upon me
A barrier against the winds
Of lankiness
That haunts me
Every tingle on my spine is curative, superlative, cumulative
In that it grows in me
A measure on a pot that's full of beauty, awe and reverence
That calls us to that higher love
Eternal taste of oneness
In Awe
Bluer than blue like the waves of the ocean
Truer than true in undying devotion
Redder than red is the passion of heart
Deeper than deep from the moment we start
White upon white like flotillas of ice
Closer than close, nicer than nice
Higher than high without stimulants, free
To offer yourself as I offer me
Deep Within Us
To capture that rapture of quieter times, to live in simplicity
Is difficult now as the noises creep in, we pray to the stars to come
true
Somewhere in the heavens the joyous reside, not angels but just me and
you
The answers remote but not from above, live deep within us and our love
A Love to Keep us Warm
We creep in darkness 'fore the sun, moonshade holds the power
Clumps of fog to hide our fears which loom in this witching hour
Between the dawn of morning light and inky blackness of the night
A shard of hope shines pink within
The love that keeps us warm
Walking in Love
The mist released its nighttime grip and settled to the ground
The fairies playtime at an end as the sunlight grew around
With one last gasp it snared our dreams and held us in its hand
No ropes to hold us in this place
Like hands thru water, not a trace
Is left of long forgotten fears
We walk and live in love
Snuggled
Snuggled beneath the covers of love, we shake and we moan
And we tremble
Yet the morning creeps in, the sun and the din
As we lay there in awe and remember
Porridge to warm us with brown sugar and milk
Our lunch bags are brimming with glee
Our clothes smell of starch and are kissed by true love
With our schoolbags and friends we are free
Sometimes
Sometimes it feels unearthly, my earth glows red within
Sometimes it feels uneasy, as our lovedance does begin
Sometimes it feels unearned, unfair
To have my heart float up, disappear
Into the ether far above
The creaminess of love
Sometimes the clock rings rarely, slow, as I wait unbreathed
For you to show
Sometimes the time flies by like light
As the morning shakes me hard and bright
Sometimes I want that one inch more that separates your derm from me
One single layer, yet untouched that lays next to your heart
Japanese Sun
The Japanese sun glowed red in the sky to welcome the morning light
Shards of pink shone thru our dreams as day became the night
The brilliance of autumn is in the air
Mid southerly winds to blow thru your hair
Magnificent sunrise reflecting love
From the spirit in your eyes
Even before their eyes can see, they rustle thru the night
As nature creeps on the forest floor awaiting mornings light
The very first sound that they hear as they wake
Is the crack of the lightning that makes them shake
Until they see their brothers lie
Redder pools than the daybreak sky
Their keening drowned by shouts of glee
Only the hollow echo remains
We pass thru the fire barely unscathed, its breath upon our backs
Walk thru coals of fiery red until our spirit lacks
The faith that obstacles will be removed, our paths so safe secure
The waters part to let us pass, our journey to the truth
Where led by love our hearts are pure
Forever to be true
Reborn
Where once there was darkness in my dreams now lays a bounty of stars
Where once my gray mornings held cloudbanks of doom, now the pinkness
returns
Where once my hawk soared high above unable to land or to light
There now grows a solid green garden and whispers of hope
Thru the night
Reborn from the darkness of journeys, my wounds are beginning to heal
Numbness forgiven, in the river of life, by its grace I am once more to
feel
Sometimes tears do appear to release inner pain, sometimes fears
reappear time and again
But with your hand in mine I am free from the past
No longer a prison to hold me
My faith in my heart is forever to last
As your love and your teardrops console me
Alive Again
My life is no longer drab and gray, no mist before my eyes
I feel alive, invigorate, my horizon is the skies
In shades of orange, red and green
A seamless web, sometimes unseen
To hold me in the morning
Awakened from the death of sleep, beyond the lives of man
The spiritual world exists in me, the power in my hand
To heal the sick, erase the blame
In truth all beings are the same
To hold on to each other
Alive I shout my ecstasy, unafraid of what I'm "sposed to be
Or what may come I find the joy, in every feeling, wanting more
I long to climb the alpine peaks, and be there when the prophet speaks
In pearls of wisdom dripping down
I find the heart that holds the crown
To hold onto this everlove
And live in love forever
Flickering Sun
I see you in the flickering sun before it goes to sleep, I feel you in
the clouds that float above me in my dreams, I taste you in the morning
dew, the frost upon my cheeks, I hold you your love up to the light, in
splendor let it grow.
Moon in the morning, sun at night, our basket of love an unearthly
delight
Paradise lost and yet regained, progress not perfection, growth only
comes thru the power of pain
Cool dry fall mornings, our breath in the air
Rainbows of colours to shine in your hair
Moonshadow
Moonshadow dances thru the clouds deep at night, slide beneath dreams
and run from the light
Peek from the blankets to feel the chill air, toes touch together to
know we are there
Startled awake by the whistling wind, blow thru the chimney, submerge
and rescind
Rattle the roof as the chestnuts fall free, grateful to be you
And I can be me
Safe in the Warm Tender Touch
One warming embrace from the late season's sun, the reverie shattered by
hunter and gun
Run to the valley and gather the herd, round up the wee ones, say not a
word
But deep in the forest our lair lies in wait, for two lonely travelers
who stumble in late
But safe in the warm tender touch and embrace, the snow it will cover
their sleep with a grace
Path to Higher Glory
We have wandered thru the windswept plains, drank waters from the flood
Paid our dues in many ways, in tears and sweat and blood
Now we've climbed that gentle peak, the rising grassy knoll
Our spirits high, our love secure, the joy has found our soul
You have followed me thru Hades gates, beyond the call of man
Stepped with me behind the glass where only shadows can
Held my hand thru nights of pain, as despair spun me round again
Then with your healing heart revealed
The path to higher glory
Today we stand erect and proud, our love a beacon to the earth
Their flailing hands we grasp to hold, to reassure and then console
For true as blue or ever was, the sun will rise in glorious morn
And by this love that barely once a flicker was
Has now through fire been reborn
Tomorrow's Empty Glass
The skies have closed their tired eyes, rainbows replace the tears
Pools of mist have blown away as hope transforms our fears
Silent whispers in the night as darker days fade into past
The orange glow reflected in tomorrow's empty glass
Into My Bed at Night
I watch you race towards the moon, to turn away one moment soon
And fall like grace or shooting stars
Into my bed at night
Today is all we Have
Pumpkin frost invades our gardens as daylight lingers in our hearts to harden
Deep flannel sheets to face the chill
As acrobats we bend our will
If not to powers, higher greater
Than something in the air
Arrows point the way ahead as you and I are gently led
By thoughts outside our feeble heads, that slice towards the marrow
To sleep the gentle dreams of youth, we sometimes taste the bitter fruit
That grows too eager, just beyond our clasp
A simple truth, too hard to grasp
Is that today is all we have
No matter what the difference
Where you and I are lovers
I saw you trail into the sky, a plume of white upon your tail
Soaring for the heights of heaven
Not afraid to die
But reaching for the very last morsel, savouring every tasty bite
Never wanting day to end
Waiting for the night
Where dreams replace the orange glow, an aura where the rivers flow
Complete, submerged beneath its depths
You hold your mind as breath by breath
You rise again, reflect the sun beneath the green gray blueish dim
That peeks within the inner world
Where you and I are lovers
Morning Delight
My breath shone white in the morning delight while the sliver of blue
moon danced cold
The stars sparkled clean in the spaces between where the nighttime will
never grow old
The hoar frost took hold of all we behold as the sun rose in orangey red
As we lay half asleep beneath the blankets so deep with visions of love
in our head
Where Does Love Go?
Where does love go when it's frightened away, does it hide like a mouse
beneath bundles of hay, where does love go when its' buried in snow,
does it lie there and shiver and shake, where does love go when it's
banished forever, forever and ever a day, does it fly to the sky, seek
it's refuge on high, or does it just wither and die
On Wings Forever
Love springs from deep within our reservoir, a mighty gushing force
Its course it is unstoppable by child or man or horse
But surely as a river flows it gathers steam as strong it grows
Until it reached waterfalls
To spread its wings forever
Love holds our hearts throughout the storm, to stop its trembled beating
It deeps us safe through longest nights, in the morning is our greeting
Like the sun it warms our hands and like the moon it guides us
To safer planes where you and I
Can spread our wings forever
The blind can see perfectly well in the shadows of the night
The deaf can hear in the roaring falls, the mute can speak in the light
That oversees us from afar, like dewdrops from a falling star
Our love can feel it thru the pain
Til softly, gently we land again
Keep us Safe til Spring
Fleeing from forgotten fears, the past will chase us down
Wearing like a truckers tire, smiles become a frown
Yet sometimes in the still of night, we hear it creeping into sight
And stand to face its awesome power
It slinks back into darkness
Alive awake, before the break of streaming sunshine in our morn
Before the pink light dawns our day, our spirit is reborn
Stoked by faith our fire glows
Sealed by love our hope still grows
Of flowers in the winters snow
To keep us safe til spring
A Growing Love
The stars shone thru the thickest fog to brighten up my day
Southern winds blew softer breezes to help to show the way
Deep in valleys locked embrace
The mists will rise to bring us grace
And safe inside our neat cocoon
We drink the cup of love
Fiery sparks to heat the evening cooling from the sun
Warming glows from happiness to help us feel as one
Lost within this passions flame
Our spirits rise to join again
Our lips still taste the higher love
That grows within our hearts
Secret Sorrow
Your eyes whisper softer, tender love that beckons me thru fog and rain
Releases floods of memories, wash the scars of soot and pain
Til I stand in robes of white, my heart it's purest after night
Where shadows roam the empty hours
Seeking faith in sorrow
I long to feel that cleansing shower, that falls in sunshine any hour
The days slip into gray betweens where we can stare yet not be seen
Our mask immune to thoughts and motion
But facing South at once we knew
The secrets to our sorrow
Paradise Not Lost
The clouds whispered love thru the winds of dreams as my heart floated
south for the heat
My spirit exulted my feet on the ground as the slowboat to Eden
departed
My soul is released from the current of time that entraps frozen
passages lost
As I gaze in your eyes to the galaxy waiting I realize paradises' not
lost.
Frosty Dawn
I awake to the frost that envelopes the morning and hear single shots
that resound without warning
The earth is complete with its shimmering sheet
As the darkness gives way to the dawning
My prayers to the heavens are granted by love as I lie in the gaze of
your eyes
Each day new beginnings with mockingbird singings
Each morning a brilliant surprise
If I Could
If I had the means and money I would rent an air plane to trail I love
you behind me
Etch it into the nighttime sky
Let it burn like acid on the face of the moon
If I had the time and money I would sweep you off your feet and carry
you to the beaches of Cuba
Let my love soak into you like coconut oil
Feel the sun glisten on our naked bodies
Sleep the gentle peace of the ocean
If I had a platinum American Express Card, if I won ten million dollars
in the lottery, if I struck oil in my backyard, if.....
If I had all of these things I would give you the world
Carry you on my back like a small child, holding you tightly as we
touched the stars
I have none of these illusions, but I have love
That I freely offer from the well that has no depths, no bottom
It is as infinite as our imagination
As wide as the seven seas
It will never fade, never tarnish, never grow old or die
It is eternal and forever
For it is me
Hold on for one More Day
We travelled thru the fairies land before the break of day
Past horses riding in the dark
Saw three deer eating in the park
Watched yellow leaves with trembling treads
Hold on for one more day
We sat inside the frigid frost that held the world outside
Felt warmth of love re-enter us and held that heat inside
Scraped away that flimsy film and blinded by the light
Gave praise to all that guided us
And kept us safe at night
We slowly traced the rivers path and tightly wound each curve
Distractions fell like raindrops, our sanctum undisturbed
Til one by one the headlights lamps brought dawning to our morn
As we gazed upon our blessings
By this love we are reborn
Love is Everywhere
The world grows smaller at my feet, the mountains shrink before me
The skies grow closer to my touch, the wind blows thru my hair
The clouds creep down to raise me up, for a second time stands still
I savour every blessing granted as I feel love everywhere
No barriers to shield my path, no roadblocks yet remain
Ideas like the waters flow, as my brain becomes more sane
Free from longings of the past I reach out for your hand to grasp
To hold you in the fading sun
To love you thru the night
The grayness of the morning mist cannot dampen my search for bliss
I find in the yellow hues that bless my days make dreams come true
I find it deep within my heart
And when I gaze at you
The gentle ride along the river winding fast into my day
Makes me pause and feel the grace of every moment we've been granted
In the warmth of touching fingers, clasping deeper yet our love
I feel the power of Creation
Falls like rain on earth, above
Brown Orange Autumn
The brown orange autumn will soon fade away
As the leaves slip away to the winter
The greenness of time will sleep for a while
As the grayness invades with a vigour
Blue skies will remain after rainbows of rain
Have washed away traces of bitter
The stars will still smile and the moon rule the tides
As eons of time ever after
The wholeness of love will shine high above
Long after springtime romance has blossomed
To grow in our hearts with their roots in the sky
In the sweet fertile pleasures of love
First Love by Starlight
Bluer than blue on a cold winters day, the sky expands my horizon
Whiter than white is an angels delight, as I reach thru the clouds just to find you
Elusive at first like my bottomless thirst as I wait for the passion to grow
First love by starlight is most blessed in sight like the wish in the morning is
granted.
Reflections
My love reflects like sun on glass, gleaming in appeal
Mirrors back the heat inside, realize my dream
Hold on fast thru murky waters, waiting for the dawn
A moment wasted, a moment lost, it's here and then it's gone
My love soars high in the sky, speeding on hot air
Lose its tether to the ground, tightrope without a care
One foot past its partner, motion to the good
Dream awake of memories of what may be, or could
Find the spark within our spirit, fan the coals to make them roar
Light in darkness, desert waters, leave the sense of wanting more
Grateful to the morning sun that replays in your eyes
Feel the love become my saviour, truth will always best the lies
Things I Love About You
I love the little girl gleam in your eyes, curled on the couch like a ten year old
Nibbling at your snack like it was the bestest ever.
I love the sheen from your body as it emerges from your sunrise bath
Hair flying in all directions as you scramble into the morning
One last look of emerald green love before you run
Dashing back at the last second to seal it with kiss
I love seeing you sway ahead of me to get to breakfast rendezvous
A swirl of black merriment as your hair dances in the wind
I love seeing you come towards me from three blocks away
One arm dangling from the burden of the turtle shell you grip tightly
Your gentle wave of acknowledgement and your smile
Warms me completely
I love the feeling of flesh on flesh as you sneak into the bed beside me
Sweet lingering scents of cream and lavender lotion
Pressed tightly into my body, my mold becomes yours
That first kiss, always as sweet as a mezzaluna
To slide me into my dreams
Goodnight
Goodnight precious one
May the angels hold your hand thru the long night
May the clouds drift you to the banks of paradise
Where I will be waiting
In love
By the Fire
I sit by the fire to flame my desire while the wind whistles close to my dreams
For comfort I am led to a feathery bed as the howling outside calms serene
Safe in your arms I release all my fears to be carried to their frozen domain
While your love keeps me warm in the gathering storm and in peace I will always
remain
I Will Stand by You
Feel me in your darkest night for I will hold a candle bright
See me when you're all alone, for I will show you the way home
Sense me when you're most afraid
For I will stand by you.
Heartbeat on my Pillow
Your heartbeat on my pillow, your love upon my chest
Our minds, our thoughts connected
By the morning we are blessed
Your hand in mine to guide me even when we are apart
A comfort and security
To hold me in the dark
We dream together often as the nightclouds race the moon
The stars are our companions
As the morning comes too soon
Waking with You
Slivers of blue sneak thru the clouds as the wind blows in cold from the
west
Harshly alarming the radio blares disturbing our blanket of rest
The cool morning chillness sends shivers through air
As we snuggle, our warmness to share
The heat from your heart intrudes through my chest as together we wake
from the night
Still dark in our dreams like lasers it seems, the morning sun shows its
first light
One last loving embrace, as we move from love's place
To walk through the day til next night
Magnet
Smiling as we separate in the partings of the morning
Our paths entwine yet verve apart, change lanes without a warning
Yet through the distance we seek and find the common star that binds us
Holds us close tho miles away
By love's great magnet we are drawn
To sleep at night, as one
Everlove
Shocked awake by bitter winds that rock me to my core
Slicing through the layers deep, still I long for more
Time to spend within your arms to feel your love embrace
I turn my face to winters cold and pray for times of grace
Lying quiet in the storm that rages all around
In the eye the safety lies as hurricanes abound
Safe within my web of love my tiny fingers grasp the straws
Of hope that springs forever more
The secret world inside that grows
With every moment spent within
Our bed of everlove
Safe in Love
The world transformed from black to white
Even as the days lose light
I hold the spark within myself
That burns in ever love
The virgin snow lays on the ground
Angels breath grows all around
And in my heart the everlove
That burns inside of me
Serenity's my blanket warm
To hold me safe within the storm
Tho winds may howl and threaten
My love is safe with you
Melting Hearts of Stone
Hearts of stone are melted faster than the snow in sun
Racing waters stilled to calm
Light returns before the dawn
Frozen in the web of time
I sit in love and peace
Whispers
Whispers from the northern wind blow thru the palace of our dreams
Whose towers spike the icy hearts
That face the morning sun
Everpeace
Time in frozen capture waits the spark that sets her free
Yearning for the better days where love will ever be
The rock to build the future on
Her world revolving in a song
That sung by angels while I wait
In love and everpeace
Four years pass into the void like leaves into the river
Moments spent in ecstasy, atingling and aquiver
Sometimes progress forward can be measured but in inches
Other times the world expands
And in our laps a fortune lands
Of riches wild abandon
Four years of love so pure and true, without the preconditions
That cause our spirits to withdraw into the safe traditions
But ceilings raised as high as sky
No words to answer questions why
Instead we reach our hands to join
The pinnacle of love
Come Meld With Me
Come meld with me into the deep and let my love slide into your sleep
A blanket for those lonely nights
When frost creeps thru the stillness
Come meld with me into the dawn and let me linger hard and long
To quench the ache that never stops
Until first light of day
Come meld with me within the snow and watch as Christmas orchids grow
Their petals open to the sun
How moist the velvet touch
Come meld with me my Guinevere, and like your trusted Arthur dear
I wait, aready, sword in hand
To take that fateful plunge
Come meld with me in softest light where silhouettes reveal the sight
Of curves sublime and tautness still
The oneness of serene
Blessings
Precious are the moments spent, in quiet comfort and content
To simply lay before the fire, watch the flames of love grow higher
Hold our love within our hearts
Until the morning comes
Dear too dear are hours lived beneath the shadow of the moon
Cradled in our love's expanse, other voices come too soon
To break our sacred reverie of touch and taste beyond compare
in love supreme, sublime
Always I will treasure fast, the very first, a kiss to last
Under the mezzaluna's glow, I held your trembling head between my hands
And now we walk united, one, along the sands of time, grateful
For every blessing like the sun
Is granted in our love
Joy to the World
I wake with joy upon my lips and worry now has been eclipsed
And banished to the netherworld
Where it slowly cries to sleep
I wake with love within my heart and even as the sun does start
To warm me from the inside out
I feel your heart beside me
I wake with hope upon my soul as I struggle to be whole
My life in place like dominoes
Falls in row by row
I wake with peace upon my earth and never do I feel the dearth
Of lovesongs on the my grateful tongue
To spread like dew in morning
Grateful to the Morning Rain
I am grateful to the morning rain that sheets upon the ground
Forming puddles for our rubber boots
To spray our love around
I am grateful to the morning rain that streaks across my window pane
My view imbued with life again
As springtime nestles closer
I am grateful to the morning rain that cleanses me from winter's pain
My life renewed in love again
Until the rainbow comes
My Song of Love
My heart flies to the sun but flames of fire grip my tongue
My heart flies to the briny deep but in my spirit shadows creep
My heart flies to the craggy tor but still my soul cries out for more
My heart flies to you and is embraced
And thru my blood flows healing grace
Light now shines where dark prevailed
My song of love returned
In Love As One
Safe and secure in a love that's so great
Happy and joyous our mind can create
Visions of beauty and kindness and grace
Nevermore sadness to stand in its place
Power of love like waves in the ocean
Over and over in endless devotion
Time brings its blessings as sure as the sun
Life is together in love and as one
Live Within the Light
Small steps made towards the good, leading to the one
Gentle rays of goodness peeking from the sun
Now our days are filled with love
Every moment full of love
Cast away are shadows old
To live within the light
The Scent of You
Waking to the scent of you, your love secures me fast
Feeling warm beneath your touch, all of sadness past
Pain is like one drop of water, deep within the well
Life transformed to heaven on earth, far away from hell
Sorrows blanket now exposed, remove it from our heart
Soon our love will flower full, today's the futures start
Refreshed by Love
The morning fog cannot conceal the happiness and joy I feel
To hold your hand in morning sun and feel its healing rays
The past is but forgotten mist, that time before our very first kiss
When you and I awakened bright to what the future holds
Your touch upon my burning cheek, my open mouth as yet to speak
But only held your gentle head so fierce was my desire
And we lay in love's repose, our favourite flower crimson rose
Dethorned by passion in the night, we wake refreshed by love
Grateful for the Day
Feeling gray and lonely, alone and apart from the world
Is a place where I no longer reside
The rain has washed my blues away
My melancholy is gone to hide
In the nether regions of far recess
My spirit soars and I am blessed
By living, loving in the light
And grateful for the day
My sombre mood gone and vanished
Bourne on the winds that clear my skies
Gone are my petty moans and sighs
My eyes awakened to surprise
That gloom is lifted by the grace
A smile affixed upon my face
And you and I we lay in love
Grateful for the day
Sweet Release
The shadows fade into the night, the wind blows me to sleep
God whispers in my inner ear that I am his to keep
I wrap myself around you like a hand within a glove
I hold you close forever in the dreamtime of our love
I float on clouds within your arms, my place is safe, secure
The closer that I feel your love, the more I long for more
White feathers from an eagles nest to line our bed of peace
Soft jasmine from an orange grove as we breathe our sweet release
Bring you back to Me
My spirit's drawn to walk with you, my hand upon your heart
My love it flies beside you, even when apart
There's something in the wind that blows
Something in the swirl of snows
Something in the rain that falls
That brings you back to me
Even in the Hurricane
Even in the hurricane our love lives in its eye
Even in the ocean our love will keep us dry
Even in that bitter pit, the abyss of confusion
Our love will hold us safe and warm and lead us to solutions
Even in the fiercest winds our love will hold us fast
Even as the days grow long our love is sure to last
Even in the darkest night when terror turns to dreadful fright
Our love will comfort and console until the morning comes
Loneliness
The silence of our loneliness is oft too much to bear
Only broken by the empty sound of solitary tears
That wash away the pain inside like waves upon the ocean
Removing stains of yesterday in one graceful flowing motion
The sadness of the morning song is broken by the feeling
That everywhere the rain will end and rainbows arc revealing
A deeper, higher, longer love that holds us in the morn
Break the shackles of our yesteryears and by our love reborn
In Peace in Love
Feeling pulled inside myself the darkness does surround
Within the deepest well of all the fears inside abound
But higher still the light of love
In deep despair will shine above
Alee from stormy seas of time
I lay at peace, in love
My destiny unyet fulfilled my power torn between the wills
Of straight and narrow to the sun or down to Hades peril
My hope a slender strand of time that lurks forever one step behind
The fear that binds me to the past, a ladder with its rungs removed
No path revealed in dim of night, but yet your joy shines everbright
To lead me back to higher love
I lay in peace and hope
In the Silence of our Dreams
I live to spend my days with you, the time together precious
I long to live my nights with you with nothing in between us
But love as sheets and kisses plenty, touch of you is heaven sent
The fragrance of us lingers long
Before the dawn does waken
I long to walk along the beach, watch sunlight stream upon your face
Hold hands in twilights fading light and watch the moon arrive
Pick stars as ours through the hours where time stands still and
friendly
Wash my back as I wash your
Glistening eyes reveal my path as oneness overcomes me
In the silence of our dreams.
Abandon
One taut tender embrace and the shadows are gone, vanished swiftly the
portals of sorrow
As I lay in abandon with my love by my side, in the soft glow of love
for hereafter
Journeys
My life is like a river that flows gently to the sea
Navigating rocks and reefs I seek serenity
When the water boils to white
The safety of the shore's in sight
As long as I keep paddling
And hold onto our love
My life is like a trip to space without the rockets blast
Through Milky Way and galaxies no need to hold on fast
For when my world is threatened by meteorites from afar
I let the spirit guide me to the safety of a star
And in its brilliance rays of light
I traverse thru the dead of night
The moon may disappear from sight
But never will my love
Lay With Me
Lay me down in fields of clover, let the waters wash me over
Every cloud will pass until the nightsounds become very still
Wrap me tight in loves cocoon wait until the rising moon
Has ceased its hiding thru the night
And dreams me fast to sleep
Let me stay forever wise and unafraid to call those lies
That spill with ease from liars lips and so the earth the sun eclipse
Sometimes we just have one more slip
Until the fall
Is final
Lay with me thru winter long and let our love become a song
That hibernates within our breasts until we cannot more contest
The reasons for this ancient love that holds us fast unto this place
And let the light of love be strong and let it last the seasons long
Until the sod has turned to green
And all around and in between
The trumpets flourish with fanfare
In honor of the truth
Moonsong
Whispering winds have welcomed me home, by your love I am never alone
Within your arms my spirit soars and cares are left to wither
The balm of sun rays is upon my heart and in silence I am never alone
The arms of your love protects me still, and my lips hold a tender
springsong
The aura of moonshadows dance in my dreams as the waters of time bring
release
From bondage of pain to my ears sweet refrain, while the mists of the
morning do linger
The Comfort of our Love
I feel the warmth of springtime air and soon my mind will wander
To dreamy days and peaceful nights and afternoons to ponder
Great mysteries of what's to come, do I need more oil for the sun
And I can sit, relax, enjoy
The comfort of our love
In green, green fields the flowers cry for sunshine from the gray, gray sky
To held them reach their limbs to love, and in the grace that reigns above
Springlike on them as they lay, before the children come to pray
And you and I we kneel to pray
In the comfort of our love
Beneath the Waterfall
Our hearts grow green with sunshine seen thru prism's rainbow light
Our love will grow in row on row as day transforms the night
From sadness veil to Holy Grail our search for peace has ended
We lay in love with grace above in serenity, contented
The springtime sun has warmed our hearts to greet the grateful morn
Like tender shoots our love grows roots and so we are reborn
From shallow selves to spriteful elves the magic catches hold
And so we lay in love secure until we're gray and old
I sit beneath the waterfall at peace within the spray
The falling light passes thru the drops of water as they fall
Revealing rainbows prism bright in answer to my call
Climbing my Everest
The days of wringing hands are done, the sleepless nights are lost
Serenity awakes my morn and my darkest dreams are tossed
Into the waste bin of despair, without a thought they disappear
Like fish into the river
I soar to greater heights again and like the arc that follows rain
My jet plumes white into the blue, a trail that's evident and true
A stairway to the heavens high, on wings of love explore the sky
And in your arms, I sleep
My life is small when you're away, not to have you here to say
I love you Joan in every way
Not to have your arms around, surround me, your heart my pinnacle
To climb my Everest, my peak, to speak into your ears
I totally love you
Even in the Quietest Moments
Even in the quietest moments I can hear your heart
Even in the dead of night when we are apart
I reach for you to find you gone
My spirit restless all alone
I feel your love inside my soul
And rock myself to sleep
Even in the deepest ocean devoid of thought and raw emotion
Even in the bluest sky my wings do soar to greatest heights
Even at the bottom of a well that holds no hope
No ladder hangs to climb my way out, no reasons left to help me cope
Even when the outside voices come achor us to denounce me
Even when my lifelong friends do gather round, complain renounce me
Even as the blackest cloud does shield my sun and I fall quiet
Then my heart flies out to you and you return in nights of blue
To lay beside me, hold my heart
And if I die before the morrow, time will not record my sorrow
But lift me high on angel's wings to hear the trumpets joy to bring
My love forever as we pass
Our days in paradise
Thirst for Love
No monsoon rains can quell my thirst
No cloud break flash can blind me
No rivers deep can block my passage
To the ocean of my dreams
Time nor tide nor moontime currents
Hold me fast in mortal climes
Nighttime eyes reveal desires
In glowing coals I'm unafraid
Still the caves of youth do haunt me
Lonely in my shallow pool
Urchins of the mornings graces
Crumbs of bread to feed the soul
Swimming once against the current
Find the love that heals my heart
Closer in the darkest anguish
Love will conquer fear at last
Wherever Whenever
Wherever you may walk or drive or stroll or fly or swim
I will always be beside thru through times of thick or thin
In rainy days or starry nights
In troubled hours or in delight
Our path is twinned as go thru life
Our partnership secure
Whenever storm clouds threaten or thunder roars above
You can feel me in the gentle rain of goodness and of love
Whenever water swamps your raft and you reach out in distress
Consider me your liferaft, as I save you I'll be blessed
For the moments that I've known you in this briefest glimpse of time
Are the happiest that have come my way in serenity sublime
And I promise to you faithfully that wherever you may roam
You will find my arms to hold you
My love to keep you warm
Like a Garden
My life is molded like your garden, softer at the edge
With brilliant burst of happiness, a songbird at your ledge
Safe inside the perimeter no harm can come to me
As I watch to see the greenness grow from every leaf and tree
In the glory of the morning sun your petals open wide
I breathe your sweetest fragrance as I gaily step outside
To receive my unearned countenance of the beauty of your love
I am grateful to Creation for the grace come from above
Without You
My world is empty, barren, dry; the birds have fallen from my sky,
their morning calls have shrunk to dust, no light of day but always
dusk, no warming fire in my hearth, no joy to rise, instead a dearth,
Of everything that glitters silver, brings a sparkle to my eyes, so
red from tearing pain, I try but stumble back again, into the pit of
lone desire, the flicker of my tapers fire, is dim too dim, that one
shiver of wind can blow it out. Alone, apart, my journey desolate, as
the plains of the Serengeti, before that first drop of water from the
thundering monsoon rain, wash away the very pain of being one, not
two.
That's how I feel without you
Ravished
Waters of life in my loves great devotion
Rolling along like the waves of the ocean
Carry me far on the tips of your wings
Bring me to paradise, let my heart sing
Green is my valley in the springtime of love
Petals of sunshine that fall from above
Violet and crimson in our bed of desire
Soft yellow pansies in a circle of fire
Roll me to far lands where mountains of dew
Cleanse my from past sins on a path that is true
Lay me forever in the soft grass of time
Let me be ravished by our love so sublime
The Honesty of Today
Far away on the distant sky the horizon darkens gloomily
But safe inside our feather bed we lay in love serene
Sirens call the curious to witness the taste of danger
While you and I we offer love to the kindness yet unseen
All around the chaos beckons for those who've lost their way
Sombre clouds bear testimony to the bearer of bad news
You and I in the grip of love care not for storm clouds gathering
But hold each other tighter in the honesty of today
Inside our Cocoon
Cocooned inside our bed of love the rain will pass us by
Safe within serenity the clouds fall from the sky
Revealing blue within their depths
While you and I in fall out of breathe
To taste the tip of ecstasy
That lies within our love
Secure in self and in each other, trying to be sane
Insanity prevails without, the source of ever pain
All we need is a tent to hold us
To see the beauty that enfolds us
No harm can seep inside our love
Tight against the world
The Glory of the Morning
Open to the blood of life and peaceful in the face of strife
We strive to be our better self that sometimes we leave on the shelf
Sweet crumbs that taste of yesterday
As children naked to the sun we play
In the glory of the morning
Between the Moon and Tides
Inside the petals of my heart, inside my purple dreams
Deeper than the sun can shine
Nearer than it seems
My wishing well is full of hope, my canoe so smoothly glides
Between the ripples left behind
Between the moon and tides
Until we Rest in Peace
The eyes of needles widen to allow my access thru
Ant hills open to embrace
My ego lessened by the trace
Of essences and fragrance sent
By love without a promise of repayment
But given freely as the Nile
My heart is released by your smile
And still we row for mile on mile
Until we rest in peace
Beliefs
I believe in the blueness of the sky, the goodness of Creation, that
glass will shatter from a fall, and you will answer my cry for help.
I believe that we are one thread in the darkness, that light emanates
from before, after and the in between.
I believe in the sadness of the rain, the deepness of your eyes, and
that the blind can see.
I believe that the truth can never grow fatigued, that burdens are
lessened by love, that hope is more than a place in Arkansas.
I believe that the stars hold our dreams and let them fall only when
it is safe for us to receive them
I believe that man can fly, unaided, unabetted, unafraid, that I can
let go of the branch above the ravine.
I believe in forever love. I believe in you.
The Place of Love
I love that place. The one where you just let go of the world. All
worries lifted. All cares float into the ether. Your mind and your
body are serene, quiet. As one.
I love that place. The scent of your freshly washed hair. Your soft,
rhythmic breathing. No shield, no walls, only doorways. To paradise
I love that place. All the tautness of the day released into the
netting of the night. All the sounds evaporate into one heart beating.
Acceptance
Our lives are shaped like flowerbeds, sculpted from the green
Sometimes we only feel at peace in the places in between
When the noises and the clamors fade
When all we hear is silence
And all we see is shade
We struggle to define ourselves from earth and vast blue sky
We open to explore ourselves unto the question why
Then we realize that hoping will not take us to our dreams
One step is just beginning
To accept life as it seems
The Path to Higher Love
In the comfort of the quiet night the darkness holds our hearts
As we cling to life so precious we can let the magic start
To embrace the love we're given as a gift from stars above
To hold on tho winds may blow us
On the path to higher love
One Kiss to Save Me
One touch that shakes me to the core
One kiss that leaves me wanting more
One arm around me in the night
One embrace til morning light
The Depths of Love
Into the depths of love I delve with time as my companion
Peeling back the unzipped layers to rove in wild abandon
Trembling at the taste of you, your breath becomes my essence
Falling so far in love with you, each hour last but seconds
To Guide us Back to Love
Time is like the light that fades in shades of pink and glory
Pass like ships in foglit nights, each moment tells its story
Of how we stumbled, how we fell, yet to rise again to tell
The majesty of life surrounds us, by its grace the morning crowns us
As we wait for yellow sun to guide us back to love
Searching
I search my heart for inspiration, a thought to start my day
Find the love that's deep inside, the kindest words to say
To let you know the beauty that your love has given me
That helps me on my journey, on the path to serenity
I find it in the birds that sing to greet the dawning morning
I see it in the flowers that are by the rain reborn
I smell it in the new shorn grass, the earthy deepest brown
I feel it in my heartsong, in this love I do belong
Wandering
For many years I wandered, stammered, stumbled even fell
In my lonely heart of misery, a place of living hell
Til By your hand I faced and met the passion of my fears
Released the bonds of loneliness in a river full of tears
Today I stand erect and proud, a credit to my race
In honesty I hold my self to the mirror of my face
Wound tightly round in deep embrace
I live in goodness by your grace
And I know I've found my place
In the grasp of higher love
Morning Sun
The morning sun reveals the world enshrouded by the fog
Walls of mist bedew the earth, awakened to the sound
Of fireflies that sleep by day, the moon is in the sky to stay
Its fading aura casts a glow that leads us to our love
The heat of springtime sun at last soon weaves its way between the grass
The greenness spreading far and wide, the warmth of joy seeps deep inside
A banquet laid before our eyes, of mead and honey satisfies
The craving of our hearts delight, that leads us to our love
Agape
I am awestruck, agape at your never-ending wonder and beauty
If I have tears, they come from the city of joy, the palace of ecstasy
My soul
Glory
A sea of blue in the morning light
A blanket of stars to warm us at night
A river of green on a well travelled road
The deepest of love to lessen our load
Their tiny green arms to the heavens do rise
Flashes of orange await to surprise
Yellows and pinks and blue of the ocean
The reddest of roses to show my devotion
A downy soft pillow, a rest for our heads
A coverlet of love as we lay in our beds
An ocean of gratitude flows thru our hearts
As the morning awakens the glory to last
Umbrella
Your love is my umbrella, to shield me from the rain
My comfort in the sadness, my cure for aching pain
Of lonely feelings in the night
You hold me til I feel alright
And as I gently fall to sleep
I thank you for this love
No Matter Where I'm Blown
No matter where the river flows, no matter how hard the northwind blows,
no matter how deep the far end of the ocean, no matter how tired from
perpetual motion, no mountain too high, no vale is too shady, to hide
you from my love.
Rainbow
Green is my love from the rainfall at night
Blue is the sky in my garden delight
Red is desire that is fuelled by your love
Gold are the blessings that fall from above
Lavender, pink are the iris of light
Silver are stars whose greatness are bright
Yellow is sunshine to warm us all over
All colors of rainbows are found in this love we discover
In the Mirror of my Eyes
I have a picture of you that I carry around in my mind
It is so vivid, I can reach
Touch you
Taste you
Feel your warmth and energy
It is my friend in the cold loneliness of the waves
My blanket to cling to in the night
Your smile is forever in my thoughts
Wide
Open
Gleaming pearls of whiteness
Reflecting the beauty of your heart
Into the mirror of my eyes
Until I Saw Your Face
Days and nights I wandered through the desert of my mind, leaving
friends and family in the dustiness behind, through days of fogs and
nights of missed, a lonely frog unyet unkissed, but croaking in the
weeds of time, until I saw your face.
Waters of Love
Waters of love rain down my emotions
Float me away on the waves of devotion
Crossing the dateline in perpetual motion
Saved from my past by the love of an ocean
Not Be Alone in the Darkness
Gliding softly thru the water in my birch canoe
Waiting for the clouds to clear up
Dreaming thoughts of you
One more buzzer in the dawn of light
One more touch to last all night
One more long embrace, to last my lifetime long
Dreamscapes pass like clouds at night and fade before the morn
Tattered webs of fragments tossed are in the sun reborn
Soon the circle is rejoined as muscle to the bone
Darkness is just a place to sleep, not to be alone
Birdmother
Let me wrap you in the soft whiteness of my eagle feathers
Let them enfold you as the birdmother holds their fledging
Who has fallen from the nest
The littlest one, who craned her neck to see the wonders of the world
Stretching so far
Until the cold hard earth smashed into her fragile self
Let My Love
Let my love be your blanket in the coldest of dreams
Where you are lost in the maze
No way out
From the noise of the faraway thunder
Let my love be your light in the darkness, one flicker of hope
In an ocean of betrayal.
Let my heart be your cushion, your pillow in the hardness
Of time
Let me be your lover
Forever
Trapped in this web of love I await the spiders bite
With ginger anticipation, I relish the feast
For a lifetime
Journey
To lay at night in the arms of love
While dreams are chased by the moon above
To pin our hopes on the glistening stars
As we journey though our love
The breath of love has entered me as by this wind my spirit soars
To reach the heights of yesteryears, a conch to hear the ocean roars
A feather bed on which to lay, on humble knees I bend to pray
All thanks are to this greatest love
And to Creation below, above
For deliverance is surely mine
Or yet, one kiss away
Fuscia
You hold my heart within your hands, my feelings in your power
My world is filled with scents of you in every waking hour
In pink blushing fuscias, and lavenders sweet you dress up my world in
your beauty
The reddest rose my hearts desire to lay in love with you
Blossoms of Love
Winter melts in springtime sun and bleeds into the summer
A blanket of green surrounds the serene
And blossoms of love are our bounty
Deeper in Love Through the Night
Fruits of the earth ripening fast as the days grow the longest to peak
Pale yellow moon in the fireflies sky as the wordless are prompted to
speak
Of the beauty and wonder of shadowless love, in the depths of the night
comes the ladder of love
That leads us to promise of honey and mead
As we lay in delight of the rapture
Laughing in love while the stars hang above and the river of life ever
runs
Our blood intermingles with the gentlest of tingles as our minds are
relieved of all burdens
All of our cares like the mist disappear while the embrace of our love
it surrounds
And the worries of time are like ruins in rhyme as we fall deeper in
love though the night
Inside our Nest
Wrap your fears around my neck, let your worries go
Safe inside our love's cocoon, feel the magic glow
Even in the darkest night our love becomes a starlit bright
And holds us til the morning comes refreshed by dreams of hope
As I walk along the lonely road and pain creeps in my heart
Through vales of tears the shadows grow as we lay far apart
Our love seeps through the foggy mist and by the moon our lives are kissed
And we are safe inside our nest that holds us til tomorrow
Quiet Moments
I love the quietest moments, just you and I alone
Some bread and cheese, do what we please
No mail, no fax, no phone
I love your smile, your warmth, your breasts
Pressed tight in love against my chest
Keep me safe til morning light
When hope brings me to life
To Lay in True Love
There once was a void, a hole in my heart
That kept out the sun, left me in the dark
That hole was so big it swallowed my soul
Like Jack and the whale I could never be whole
But like in the fairy tale stories of past
I found a true love and I knew it would last
With love as my partner and you as my guide
Help from Creation I wandered inside
Took hold of my void and let the wind blow
Soon sadness was banished and my heart it just grew
Instead of a hole buried deep in my heart
I lay in true love and never will part
Another Day in Paradise
In the silence of the morning hours just as the sun does rise
I waken to the moment see the beauty in your eyes
High above the silver moon hangs on a thread in blue
The birds sing quiet songs to me as I lay in
love with you
On padded feet I spread the sounds of morning thru my world
The sizzle of a steaming bath thru my nostrils coffee swirls
The sights and tastes of everlove in my ritual of routine
Prayer and meditation to the one as yet unseen
Sloshing over breakfast as the papers stain our hands
Soft toast, hard eggs good company the world at our command
One gentle kiss as love breaks thru the silence of the one
Another day in paradise in the spirit of the sun
Always More to Find
All the world within my cup, my chalice overflowing
Love is like an acorn planted, in the earth it's growing
Fed by rain in the South of Spain, Cote d'Azur is calling
Ripened by the springtime sun, blessings soon are falling
Miracles are like the fruit, untended yet are mellow
Juicy plums from Mexico, by your heat turned mellow
Nothing I have said or done has caused this battle to be won
Unworked for harvest from Creation
Falls into my basket
Happiness
Happiness is heaven sent, like a falling star
Softly slip between your fingers, find you where you are
Seep into your inner core
Leave you gasping
Wanting more
And always more to find
Happiness is like the summer sun, warm upon your heart
Closer to the finish line, farther from the start
Worry fly like bats at night
Angels come to bring delight
Release from every pain there was
Is lying in your arms
Happiness is like the morning flower, opened after rain
In the darkness soft it sleeps, but to rise again
Healing power lasting long
Soon the cherubs break to song
You and I the whole day long
Safe at peace, in love
The Perfect Love
It's as if I've finally landed, at last I've found my place
To live my days serenely, within a world of grace
So many blessings have been given, so many sins are now forgiven
If my life would end today
I would smile and fall asleep
To find the perfect person who loves you warts and all
Who fills your days with wonder and by the moon enthrall
To sit and rest in plenty, while the world still seeks its crumbs
To be alive and living while so many are so numb
I am grateful to Creation for the path that I've been led
I can see the road so clearly all the curves that lay ahead
But as we trudge together on the road to destiny
I am grateful to the love you bring, this love that set me free
Pure Love
Sprinkled by the morning shower, welcomed by the breath of the wind
Feeling the earth reawaken itself, the glory of life begin
Peeling layers from the night, where you and I in love, slept tight
Until revealed by rainbows light, in the pureness of our love
A Million Miles
A million miles I walked this earth in search of higher love
Ten thousand wandering lonely days as I looked below, above
Til one day light came to my heart, through green blue silver eyes
A prism to release the colours, free me from disease
Replace it with a gentle touch, a kind and soft embrace
Replace my ache with happiness, my weariness with grace
Now my walking days are over, my place to rest has come
I live my life serenely with the knowledge that has come
From sharing life, the hopes and dreams, the greatest and the small
With one whose pureheart parts the clouds, the highest love of all
One Smile in the Morning
One smile in the morning can erase winters warning
One kiss late at night brings summers delight
One rainfall in spring lets hope ever bring
One leaf in the fall is nothing at all, but the passing in time in this
love so sublime can wash all my worries away
Only Love
Only love can break your heart
In two, in tiny slivers
Only hope can mend the glass
Of broken promise fevers
Only two can face the dawn
That reaches hard into the morning
Only two can ease the chill
That comes from winter's early warning
Only you and I survive the holocaust of what went wrong
Only you and can meet the shimmering light before the dawn
Only you and I have hope that springs eternal from our well
Of happiness that like a bird
Will soar into the heavens
My Candle at Night
My light in the evening, my candle at night
My heat in the winter wind, my earthly delight
Climb the ladder to the top
Hold me tight and never stop
Let the rain be our embrace
And by this love we grow in grace
The Path of Love
Long before the sun has risen
Time before the dawn of man
Special few are chosen, called
To seek the path of love
Far beyond the mountains shadow
Deeper than the river runs
Into expanding hearts of dreams
To seek the path of love
Past the point that eyes can see
Horizon dipping out of view
Farther than our universe
To seek the path of love
At Peace
We floated thru the magical mists, our feet above the ground
Through walls of fog our souls flew by, silence all around
The cool gray wind of wintertime will soon within the seasons rhyme
Yet you and I lay safe and warm
Between the sheets of love
I long to lay to quiet bliss in our bed of sweet surrender
Tho storm clouds rage in skies above, our love is no pretender
To the throne of evermore, where starlit skies push to the fore
And gather us in arms of love
To lay at peace as one
Let This Feeling Grow
Buffeted by the seas of change that crash into our days
We hold on to this wave of life that comes to us in rays
Whatever storms may threaten or reefs that lurk below
We have this love to follow wherever we may go
I will hold onto this liferaft, this healing grasp of love
Deeper still within my heart, on earth and far above
For Creations gift has bound us from this day forever more
I will always hold you in the night
Let this feeling ever grow
Save Me
Laying still within my bed, while thoughts of you flow thru my head, I sink neath
the waves sublime, to surface gasping every time, I think of you my heart grows
large, until it chokes the breath from me, my feeble stabs to break the storm, are
washed away before the morn, and yet you lay but fingertips, reach out to save
my soul
Pledge
Time immortal, time forgotten, time will come again
Summer shines, while winter snows, and spring will ever rain
Seasons change like hearts of man
Wouldn't, shouldn't, mustn't, can
Hold this love unto the fire
Watch the flames leap ever higher
Snow nor wind nor rain nor sleet
Can even in this world compete
With eyes unto the longer glory
Love is like an oft told story
To this love I pledge my heart
As seasons move together
Love Reigns Over Me
Feeling warm without the sun
Feeling alone but not undone
Feeling apart but never left home
For love reigns over me.
In the silence of three quarter moon sky
My words trail off to the question why
Led by the stars to my aerie home
For love reigns over me
In the heat and the grime of the compost heap
My shoulders sag and my knees grow weak
But the strength of my heart is never in doubt
For love reigns over me
At the speed of light in the whir of sound I crash through the barrier
Into the ground, I plant my lilies for the spring
And my soul is grateful for the life they bring
For love reigns over me
Bed of Love
Grateful as the moon holds tight into the breaking day
Soon tomorrow's cloudy morning slowly slips away
But in the moment of its glory
Moonrays reach to tell their story
Wandering thru the starless night
To find its bed of love
Face of fullmoon glowing strange its yellow gleam an eerie range
Of light in darkness, joy in pain, one more orbit, back again
Still the world remains revolving
Human species is evolving
From cavelike state and catatonic
To find its bed of love
Your Smile
Your smile is like a cuppa tea at night, my soft favourite chair, the
New York Times on Sunday, playing soccer, hard and fast, then relaxing
on the sidelines, exhausted, but happy.
Your smile is my ecstasy, my drug of choice, and man am I addicted!
Your smile is my reward for loving you, no more required to satisfy my
every need.
Your smile tells me you're O.K., you love me, and I go to sleep in that
beautiful, bountiful sleep, where all is good in my world.
Love is like a Buttercup
Love is like a buttercup that gleams below your cheek
Timid is not just reserved for mices and the meek
Angry voices in the dawn
Melt into the mists of morn
Soon the feelings pass away
Like dreams upon the wind
Love is like the tranquil waters floating on the lake
Giving out not giving up, the time we can't forsake
Love is like the lonely frog
Who bleats his message in the fog
And crosses lines that slay him dead
Like thoughts from long ago
I Could Hold You Forever
You smelled like fresh, warm bread, the lingering soap scent surrounded
your hair like a halo
Your teeth gleamed brightly in the morning sun, welcoming me to a new
day
Your eyes beckoned to me to come and lie with you
Hold you forever
But alas the bigness of our world pulled us apart, breaking the magnetic
lock of our love
Calling us to do very unimportant things with very ordinary people
Drawing out our goodness instead of letting beauty flow in
Through the portals of our trembling hearts
But deep inside of me your scent echoes, resides
I can conjure it up at will, in the blink of an eye you stand before me
Like fresh, warm bread
Just out of the oven
