Take My Hand
Tears of Joy
The sun has failed to rise early in the morn and the
darkness seems to hover like a night newly reborn.
The mountains appear to separate and the stream
is awfully dry and as I close my eyes once again I
find you by my side.
Your the cause of each smile that widens on my face,
the tears of joy streaming and the kiss of that only you
could have placed.
~
Simple Words
Simple words, a few sweet memories, and it placed
me in your arms to be held tenderly.
This happy filled moment cast you here with me and
there is no doubt that this is how love is meant to be.
Singing every morning, kissing you good night and
dancing like the angels on the clouds up high.
Simple words, sweet memories and it placed
me in your arms held tenderly.

I'd Choose Them All
Perfection is rather simple,
a day with you, in a picnic
on the hillside under skies of blue.
You can bring the blanket and I'll
order us the sun as I lay in your
arms and dream my love.
Spring or summer and maybe
even fall, if I had a choice I'd
choose them all.
Silly like children, embraced
souls of two rolling down the
hill I'm holding on to you.
The last of the strawberries are
ready to be picked, let me dip
them in some chocolate and
tease you with a kiss.
Smiling at the thought of me
laying under the blue, made me
realize all I need is you.
I have envisioned our picnic,
I am excited as can be, at
the thought of your flesh
breaking through my
dreams.
Sings> One look into your eyes and I know that it's true, your heart inviting but it was your eyes that said I love you. I could stay forever in your trance, your eyes like magic caught me with one glance.
To hold you would be so amazing, wonderful as can be it would be like moving mountains to reach out from the dream. Gaze unto the heavens the stars all shining down, a reminder of the magic as love comes showering down.
Your smile has captured me and mesmerized am I at the warmth of your heart when our souls reached the ground. I repeat it over and over again, I love you my darling, I'll love you till the heavens come to and end.

Sings>I don't write for angels...
My heart has spoken
Reading through the pages written by the heart,
I stopped where only lovers go, to those which
gave my soul a spark.
The fire miraculously a blaze caught the attention
from afar and from the onset of love placed
us high above the stars.
Some see such beauty to which I deny, but as
I looked into the mirror the reflection didn't lie.
There was a sparkle in the eyes, a joy from the
smiling lips and as I looked a little closer I saw
what others didn't miss.
Men have dared to document from a time of
long ago, the happiness of love and how
through the spirit it continues to grow.
Memories enhanced it , dreams just
made it glow, and I wake each morning,
to a reminder of how I love him so.
I never felt the glory and in loving I saw no
shame, because it was time that chose the
moment and documented it just the same.
Embers of kisses felt upon my lips, like a
king to a queen, the dreams of subtle bliss.
Happiness had surfaced and could be seen
all around and as I reached to pull you
close my feet quickly touched the ground.
I didn't understand it, though the world
knows I tried, that the Lord would place
such distance and time would boggle the
mind.
Love indeed has surfaced and not everyone
is filled with delight, but the angels are the
ones to reckon with and they showed me
the light.
No ending to the story, I shall never let it
go, for there is no greater love my darling
and you helped to define it so.
There will be no time of reckoning, no secrets
tossed to bay, I shall not violate the heavens
who directed your love my way.
Dancing on Clouds
Smiles
By giving me all you've got
Your love has captured me
Over and over again
I tried to tell myself that we
Could never be more than friends
And all the while inside
I knew it was real
The way you make me feel
Lying here next to you
Time just seems to fly
Needing you more and more
Let's give love a try
Ooooh-ooh-ooh, whoa-oooooh
Sweeter and sweeter love grows
And Heaven's there for those
Who fooled the tricks of time
With the hearts of love they find
True love in a special way
The closer I get to you
The more you make me see

Soul Searching
What is the importance of our life and where do all the experiences lead us? I looked at a handful or a list of my "first" I learned about our wants and needs and that loneliness is a sickness that eats away at the spirit. That kindred spirits do exist and that soul mates isn't a loosely and overused term, that there is a connection between people that clarifies who we are and where we belong. I have experienced a variety of friendships and found that each came with its only lesson. Even in light of the moment it didn't turn out like a well written romance book, but I did gain a tremendous amount of knowledge. I know that we can't dictate our emotions upon another, that we can't change who people are. I also learned that expectation only leads to disappointment and that taught me how to hold on and how to let go.
Friendship, as I close my eyes and look into the darkness a sense of peace is captured. With my mind I can not only sense your warmth, but feel it inside me. I have learned that there is a major difference between lust and love and love with lust is exciting and fun and lust without love is less than fulfilling.
Determined to continue to move foreword I took that which I committed to memory and as if consummating the chapters of and unfinished book I held tightly on to your hand and embraced what is. I still find a twinge to my heart that awakens me from the comfort mode. Why so restless I ask my soul? The images of a new born child within my arms created a vision as long as life itself. There is a certain amount of fear in not knowing what tomorrow brings and where it will lead us next.
Intricately woven with loose threads all around, it is the complication of our desires, dreams, needs and wants and the reality of the possibilities that are complicated by our thoughts. Simplicity appears as an image of peace, lying in your arms, kissing you good morning, a walk along the shore. The ability to love and be loved, to follow the dreams is the next chapter waiting to be written.
Declaration of my gratitude
It is most certain and very
clear that you were right
and I need not fear.
That time reveals all
that shall be and
choices and decisions
are all that lead.
That hearts do heal,
but not necessarily
fade the memories
of yesterday.

Bobby Darin - More Lyrics
yet they lack the emotion that can only
be found if sung through the soul.
So takes a break from filling jars of facial
cream and thinks of you and sings......
More, a little slower, a little deeper
and a lot more meaningful, I love you more.
Sings> More than the greatest love the world has known.
This is the love that I give to you alone, more than the simple
words I try to say, I only live to love you more each day. More
than you'll ever know, my arms long to hold you so, my life
will be in your keeping, waking, sleeping, laughing weeping.
Longer that always is a long, long time, but far beyond forever,
you'll be mine, I know I never lived before and my heart is very
sure, No one else could love you more.
Cara Mia...
Sings>Hold me darling, don't let me go, without your love, I'd be stumbling so. Each beat of our hearts, a story tells, of how true our love, from the heavens fell. Hold me darling, don't let me go, without your love, I'd be stumbling so.
You are the smiles in the early morn, when I open my eyes, I feel like I've been reborn. Like a flower in bloom on a summer day or the first snow fall that makes you wanna to go out and play.You are the dream that tickles my mind, touches my heart and leaves on my soul a sign.
Hold me darling, don't let me go, without your love, I'd be stumblign so. Each bet of our hearts, a story tells, of how ture our love, from the heavens fell. Hold me darling , don't let me go, without your love, I'd be stumbling so.

Angels Working Overtime
The music played softly in the background,but the words had and incredible abilility to bring to the forefront the magic of dreams and the reality of the moment. It seemed almost surreal and yet I gave into the moment and found myself in the dance with the embrace of your love. Like the flame of the candle reaching for the heavens, I danced as if my feet no longer touched the ground as my soul entwined literally with yours. Spiraling in circles I felt the magic of your love pull me close and within a moments time I knew that I was feeling the infusion of love take hold of my soul.
Coopers rock is cut through the hills of West Virgina. There is a peace that comes only by becoming one with the mysterious yet beautiful mountains. Nothing can compare to the serenity which is created from the blue of the sky and the gifts of mother earth as she creates an ever changing canvas. Follow me as once again as we explore the simplicity of nature on a path cut through the heavens.
To wake up in the morning and lay there face to face,
sends chills through the body and to my heart an ache.
Dreams embrace all that we can be, they can take the
mountains and grain by grain wash it out to sea.
Blue birds return to him my love, sing it in the morning
and in the night from the heavens above.
I'm holding you close, I'll never let you go. I'm keeping your
love within me, from spring through the winters snows.
To wake up in the moring and lay there face to face,
sends chills through the body and to my heart an ache.
~
Sings>I'll Take Your Love My Darling
I'll take your love my darling, kisses and hugs my darling.
I'll take the dreams my darling to keep you close to me.
Sunshine and blue skies, happiness and you and I,
that's what happens when two souls happily collide.
Celebrating all life brings, hand in hand with two
hearts that sing, divulging all you mean to me.
I'll take your love my darling, kisses and hugs my darling.
I'll take the dreams my darling to keep you close to me.

In My Arms
you my love and the angels sang
back from the heavens above.
Good night my sweetheart, rest
peacefully now, I'm hear waiting
with a silly smile.
Whispered to the angels to send
you my love and the angels sang
back from the heavens above.
My pillow awaits you, so close
your eyes and allow your love
to infuse.
Whispered to the angels to send
you my love and the angels sang
back from the heavens above.
My heart beat, your heart beat
rythimically as one, while we
embrace with kisses and hugs.
Whispered to the angels to send
you my love and the angel sang
back from the heavens above.
Sweet dreams, moon beams
are waiting for us, so close
your eyes and feel my love.
Whispered to the angels to send
you my love and the angel sang
back from the heavens above.
September is a rather peculiar month, it is definetly a month of change. The cold nights have encouraged the northern trees to begin the transformation from summer to the season of autumn. The colors of the leaves already range from bold orange, firey reds to an array of yellow and browns. In my personal life September always had a special celebration, it was the month that began a spiritual reformation or the introduction to my self awareness. In many instances I found over the years a lapse in time where I lost the spiritual freedom necessary to bring a self fulfilment.
Expectation, I always thought that expectation was a word of trickery. The anctipation or the predeterimination of what time offers can be quite dissappointing. Yet we can't go through life without personal goals nor a certain amount of determination. Throughout my life I had one set of demands which seemed to fall short of my request. I ask only for a state of normalcy. But I soon realized normal was differet to different people. We would end up in a heavy discussion of what was normal. I considered it to a be walk through life through the middle of the road, no extremes on one end or the other. In this state of normal I expected that which I had given. It wasn't as if I was asking those around me to conform to the common thought, but I had hoped for what my mind saw as a state of sanity.
I felt many times pulled in and weighted down by the a heaviness of spirit. Some how I tried to balance it all, by taking the positive and using it as the ground work for survival and working through the negativity. It wasn't a sense of right and wrong, but a variation of dreams and desire for all that we can be. For the past two weeks I screamed in silence as I dealt with an entanglement with the people who surround me.
I realized I was set on a teeter tot where the strenght of the opposite became my weakness. My strength was in my ability to set my soul free and yet I felt smothered as if those who ruled the darkness also controlled my soul. I felt a sickness take hold and my mind toyed with me as if I had given in and no longer could battle that which I did not believe in. Like a infectious disease gone array I grasped to find a cure. How could those who claim to love manipulate the ugliness so that it may prevail.
Overwhelmed by my responsibilities I began to remove the weight one by one and still I felt like a train that had become derailed. Nothing about the last few weeks felt natural, for every step forward I took, I felt as I were being pushed twice as far back. It wasn't a day in the making it was years and years. I felt for the first time hate inside of me, hate of the limitations placed upon my soul. As I began to write the words they seem to be nothing other than my spirits out cry for one moment of peace.
September it was the month that unlocked the gates of despair and gave to life a new meaning. I fought the battle of time to keep close that which didn't belong to me. I am not sure what was heavier the tears of my heart or those of my soul. Draw the curtains and you'll see revealed a lifetime of heartache which still had not healed.
Sings>In my arms rest an angel, in my heart I hold the dreams ,
from the moment you said hello
and gave your love to me.
My soul was desperate and
it almost gave on in, until
we collided in the heavens
where our life again begins.

Love Infused Poetry
The evening sky was filled with colors in every shade and hue, from soft and luscious pink to a variety of blazing orange and icy blue. The heavens invitation sent out to me and you in a dusting of dreams to warm our hearts through and through. I felt the moment from the time it first took hold, pleasuring the flesh as we entwined soul to soul. I could hardly catch my breath, the images surreal, placed you in my arms and your love was all that I could feel.
Over powering forces reached on out to you and me, creating a stage where our hearts ruled through memory. The music from the heavens sweet and softly played and I felt your loves embrace in the most amazing way. My feet began dancing and I knew on this very day, our love surpassed the bond beyond the ordinary ways. We bridged the many rivers, turned mountains to sand and explored the heavens in a way that only lovers can.

Simple Pleasures
The truth reveals itself through the actions of the spirit, for love is greater than the rigid walls which are built by those who dare not explore beyond the moment. Taking a deep breath and allowing the infusion of your love to feed my soul.
Water Hyacinths
Uncontrolled Water Hyacinths may become invasive as they unbalance the ecosystem with in the various bodies of water. The beauty of their blossoms erode quickly on several levels and through various studies and yet there is another side to this exotic plant. What seems to be a water weed takes on a different perspective as we open our eyes to not only the beauty of its petals but its ability to flourish as it cleans the waters of heavy metals and also its aid as food source for aquatic life. Ironically it reminds me of the adage" two sides to every story." Simply because we do not know all the many uses of that which surrounds us does not necessarily make it useless. Life is pretty much the same way, we try to understand the depth of the journey and yet we find that it takes sometimes years before the moral of a lesson is revealed.
My emotions are quite scattered, they span from comfort to an excitement and a ache to a level of happiness I had yet not experienced. The last few nights my dreams were quite vivid. In reviewing them in my mind, I saw the importance of the various characters and the truth that lay hidden within the walls of my mind.
I realized more than ever how possession is so meaningless and that it is the free will of the soul which takes flight to examine the heavens. Happiness is crucial on all levels of the journey and yet the happiness we choose to claim may not always include those whom we would expect. To cage the heart is to kill the soul and the tears of the spirit shall never fade as they leave behind reminders of yesterday.
Time seems to pass like that of the water hyacinth as is it quickly takes on over a pond. I grasp at the memories and hold close that which cleansed my soul, removing the toxicity of the past and replacing it with the purity of the moment. Smiling, I gathered my memories, dreams and added it to the faith in the future. I wrapped my emotions in a bow of passion to display a bouquet of all my love. I felt at first a chill and than a subtle, warm feeling came over me. The blanket of calm from the magic of your embrace, shared both in the your strength to stand beside me without judgement and the beauty of your love which allowed my soul the freedom to soar.
