A LIVING DREAM

 

A living dream

Changes the moments

Of my everyday existance

Into a time of bliss.

WHEN YOU SIT NEXT TO ME

 

When you sit next to me

The skies seem to brighten

I feel sunlight on my skin

And all my senses heighten

Just being in such close proximity

Makes my old heart lighten

Just imagine if you only knew me

Then I’d be as invincible as a titan

RADIANCE AND BEAUTY

Radiance and beauty

Seeps out from your every pore,

Pure loveliness

I FEEL SUCH A LOVE

 

I feel such a love

Pulsating through my lonely heart

Rippling through my soul

WOODLAND COURTING

 

Birds are singing high up in the sycamore

Squirrels busy themselves in the chestnut.

Trees sway in the breeze

Limbs out stretched towards the sun

As in the dampled sunlight,

We walk hand in hand below

Slowly wandering the wood

Through shadows and the sunshine

The humming wings of insects

Our only company

In the shade the spiders silk spun web

Awaits its unsuspecting pray

While I am caught in a different web

On a perfect afternoon

That I wish will last forever

IT TOOK A MINUTE

 

It took a minute, or less,

To pick you from the crowd

Within an hour, I truly knew

What a special person you were

By the end of that first day

I had fallen in love with you

Now at the end of your last day I know

It will take a lifetime to forget you

STAR-CROSSED WALKERS

 

A star-crossed couple in the park,

Walking hand in hand in the dark

They don’t care about wind and snow

They have a love to keep them aglow

I CHANGED ON THAT DAY

 

I changed on that day

For the whole world to see

When I asked you out

And you didn’t flee

You wernt rude to me

Or laugh hysterically

Instead you smiled

And then said yes to me

And I changed again

For the whole world to see

When I said I love you

And you said you loved me

WE ARE SEPARATE NOW

 

We are separate now,

Irrevocably apart

So why do you refuse

To leave my broken heart

A TRUE LOVE

 

Our love is a true love,

An everlasting for-

ever love, our true love

A PERFECT CIRCLE

 

A perfect circle

Of love has enveloped me

An eternal circle

FINE AS SILKEN THREAD

 

Fine as silken thread

Her hair shone like burnished

Gold, in the bright sunlight

SWEET JOANNE

 

Sweet Joanne

With the perfect tan

Consummate style

And the white toothed smile

 

Joanne so fair

With the brunette hair

Oh hear my plea

Won’t you please go out with me?

YOUR DELICATE HAND

 

Your delicate hand

Is pale, your finger perfect

To fit the golden band

ALL MY EGGS IN ONE BASKET

 

I gave my heart, and put

All my eggs in one basket, but

I have no regrets

I COUNT MY BLESSINGS

 

I count my blessings

I count them twice

I thank the lord

For one so nice

 

I will always love you

Until the very end

You are my lover

My wife and my friend

VISIBLE IN THE CLARITY

 

How gently she smiled, with

Love visible in the clarity

Of her perfect green eyes

THE BEAUTY OF HEAVEN

 

The clouds obscure each star

But the beauty of heavens array

Is just out of sight

LONG AND LONELY NIGHTS

 

Without you at my side

All my nights are long and lonely,

And all my days are empty

THE FLAME OF PASSION

Promise me that you will

Let the flame of passion always

Burn within your heart
