YOU ARE THE BEAUTY

 

You are the beauty,

The reason for my infatuation,

And my existence

FALLING TOO EASILY

 

Falling too easily

Brings you only heartbreak

And bitter tears in the end

EVERY CORNER OF THE WORLD (3)

 

From Scotland’s stormy western isles

To the land of the rising sun

I will follow you to the ends of the earth

Because for me you’re the only one

EVERY CORNER OF THE WORLD (4)

 

From the Bell Rock Light House

And the North Sea swells

To the Newfoundland grand banks

Were the hardy seamen dwell

I will follow you to the ends of the earth

Because you’re my special mademoiselle

EVERY CORNER OF THE WORLD (5)

 

I have stood in view of the Mongolian steppes

I have stood upon the Pacific Ocean shore

I have stood on Virginias Blue Ridge Mountains

I have looked from Cape St Vincent in awe

I have seen many things in my long life

It is my plan to live to see many more

But I know I will never see more beauty

Now I stand beside you of that I’m sure

PLUVIAL SEATTLE

 

I am a sun worshipper by nature

An inclement climate doesn’t suit

But I love you with all my heart

You’re pretty and witty and cute

But now you’re off to Washington

You have decided to totally uproot

And relocate to Seattle of all places

A place of frequent rain by repute

So should I trade the Californian Sun?

For the long wet winter commutes

I worship you more than the sun

You’re pretty and witty and cute

So even Seattle’s pluvial reputation

Will not deter me from pursuit

A THIRD KISS

 

A third kiss

Is eager, yet restrained

Slow, yet purposeful

And when lips meet

Hearts start racing

But each moment,

Is savoured

This kiss, though not life changing

Will be remembered
