Flight...

Take my hand and close you ees,
Drift with me beyond the stars,
Soar with me through midnight skies,
Through gleaming heavens in secret hours.

Catch a moobeam in your hands,
Gather the stardust in the velvet breeze,
Journey on through quiet dream sands,
Sail on the oceans of your fantasies.

Hand in hand through endless space,
I'll watch over you 'til the sun will wake,
Through the soft night winds face to face,
Promising your heart will never break.

As all the stars that shine on earth,
Caress you with their quiet stares,
Watching your heart in sweet rebirth,
Shining brightly, warmly, and ever-fair.

Now open your eyes and you'll understand
As through wond-ring eyes you'll see,
With some stardust, moonlight and us hand in hand,
How close to heaven earth can be.

...the break of day in spring...


I have yet to see a lovelier thing
Than the break of day in the heart of spring…

When the dew on waking fields gleam
Like the fairy sparkles of a fading dream.

Catching the moment that night and day kissed,
Framed in the softness of the morning mist.

words and flowers...



In a time when words have lost all their powers,
I pray for the silent eloquence of fragrant flowers...
And how my teardrops shower them like dew...
A tear for every moment i am missing you...

But i will quietly, wordlessly wait until the time,
You will finally forgive me for my painful crime,
And to trust me once more and give me love again,
Yes, my love... i will be waiting until then...

and then there was the rain...


And so there was the rain...
____that fell on through the chilly night...

There i stood,
____staring up...
________then staring down...
feeling each raindrop roll down my cheek
and watching them fall on my
____________________cold feet...

but most of them were tears.

And i keep walking...

I keep walking to the east
_____against the winds the hidden moon
______________keeps blowing my way...
and the frozen velvet that was the night
___________sparkled with shards of rain
_______that cut my face and stung my eyes...

but i catch each drop upon my freezing chest
________and the bleeding happens beneath,
_______________where my heart is.

I have had nights like this,
_____and the mornings were cold and gray.

But the sun was somewhere behind
____________all the howling of the roses
____that i crushed beneath my careless feet.

So i keep walking...

This time gingerly. Carefully ever after.

Through the rainy nights...
_____________the gray days...
___and the shadows of dreamless dreams...

and one day perhaps,
____the morning will be golden again.
