Only Now Do I See

It was a time I should remember well

It is a time I should remember well,the feelings special still when I recall.It may be true the thoughts of you are spreadacross the years and visions do not cometo me as I would wish that they might do. If you should ever pass me by I'd knowthat you were...

Just Live in Fairyland

Seek the land of Fairies

She lives there in your Fairyland of Dreams. She'll be there when you seek her, never fear.Don't worry, you are playing love's sweet games,the ones that keep you living life's pure joy. We realize the trust we give to thosewe love returns to us in manifol...

Prairie Suite

Let the wind lift you up on your dreaming wings

Eyes open slowly,the horizon spreading out.Awaken with joy. Bird songs whistle andfill our ears triumphantly.The prairie is alive. Blue skies above us,scarlets and ambers blending.Blossoms have appeared. Viewing the landscapeas we share the atmosphere.Bre...

She has always been my kitten

The fact that she is here with me is grandand now I call her what she has becomebecause it simply is the way I thinkabout her now as we grow closer still.  It may not be the way I chose to callher once upon a time but now I findthat this is how I'll alway...

In Twilight Time

The time grows short but love will never die

The days grow short, your time runs out but lovewill never die. You simply must acceptthat it has come to you once more. Acceptthe way you have so many times before. You know that it is true; just look at themand realize the honesty they smile. They smile...

An Echo Rings

A heartbeat can be a story in itself

An echo rings. It is a heartbeat; or maybe two. Shall we guess, or do we know? An echo rings. It’s in my mind; maybe you hear, too? Maybe you hear two? An echo rings. It is there. It is here. It is one. It is our heartbeat; a destined union. An echo rings...

Reaching Out Into The Darkness

I still hear the voice that echoes in my heart

I still recognize thetimber and the tone. Hear the sound of her voicedeep inside From her voice in my mindthat one time.Only one time did we speak,share ourselves. Only one time did shepaint my heart with sound. Said my name, and it brought me tears of jo...

Unabashed blood rainbow huesTossed in a sea of whittled newsA whiplash current, a greedy bearEats its fill within its lair.Stomping fields of calves and thighsPrance around with filtered eyesOne princess calls monks to her foldBlue eyes flash, 'Do as you'...

The gull sails aloft white-crested oceanas smooth as silk, in perfect motioneyes scan the surf for silver glimmersto harvest crops of scaly dinnersA glint, a meal, a hunger realan upward swoop with deft and zealone turn, a hover, then a plungesharp golden...
