Baby It's Cold Outside

Snowflakes, Snowflakes

Snowflake, snowflake, falling down,
the winter white blankets the ground, 
daydreams of you and I as I lay here 
gazing out at the blue of the sky.

~ 
Snowflake,Snowflake falling down, 
 the winter white blankets the ground. 
The day as cold as it can be and yet the 
love from your heart warms me.

 ~ 

Snowflake, snowflake, falling down, 
the winter white blankets the ground. 
Thoughts that bring you close to me,
 bridge our hearts for all eternity.

No Compromise

I'll not comprise my heart
nor shall I turn away, as
I find myself holding on
to you.

I'll find away to channel
my love, to reach on out
to you, if only I do it
through a dream.

I'll not comprise my heart
nor shall I turn away, as
I find myself holding on
to you.

Raging rivers,
 blue skies blue , 
dreams that dare
 to come true.

 I just want to fall asleep
to be there next to you,
 if only I dream a dream
I dream a dream come true.

Raging rivers blue skies blue , 
dreams that dare to come true.

.I just want to close my eyes
and relax my troubled mind. 

 Sleep in your arms and listen
to your heart. 

Raging rivers, 
blue skies blue.
,dreams that dare
to come true. 

My heart speaks clearly to me, there is no hiding how love should truly be. Spinning in circles, we dance upon the clouds, I am in your arms and we continue to go round. This moment is as magical as can be, you are the best part of me. la la la la, la la la la, la la la la ...you and me.  

I reached into the darkness and I called out your name, Can you hear my whispers or am I going insane?

 My want for you has never weakened,
 my needs make me a fool,and my desire for love is like a blaze of falling stars that create a magical shower.

 I reached into the darkness and I called out your name. Can you hear my whispers or am I going insane? 

The walls of distance imprisons the heart...

Once upon this earth two hearts merged into one and never shall they part, this forever love. 

I can't take back what belongs to you, I gave to you my heart and your grip upon it tightened as our love grew. It is not a story, no tales of love, this magical immersion is the joining of one to one. 

Mirrored Soul

Spiritually Connected
the best yet to come,
our souls mirrored
because our hearts
are joined as one.

I see myself in you
and I see you in
each moment of the
hour, for you are my
greatest love a reflection
caught on fire.

Spiritually connected,
the best yet to come,
our souls mirrored
because our hearts
are joined as one.

...as seen by the heart.

I took to the heavens and
danced upon the clouds as
I felt the warmth of love,
spin me a round and round.

With you I am one and with
the universe we are whole,
as we are joined by the
heart and infused by the
soul.

The day was gray and no
sun could be found , until
I looked into your eyes
and found the light of
love was abound.

~

The blue sky umbrellas and the heavens call your name 

as it turns raindrops to sunshine and brings love to my day. 

~

I won't go on denying,
the truth will be known
as love like ours will
forever go on.


~

I wasn't looking and
I never thought I'd find,
the pairing of souls when
yours met with mine.

My morning breath,
my evenings desire,
the love of my life
the souls uncontrolled
fire.

I wasn't looking and
I never thought I'd find,
the pairing of souls when
yours met with mine.




~
Books of poetry,
emotionless words
until I touched the
pen and that is
when my heart
could be heard.

I wrote and my
soul sang and the
world seemed awfully
small as we were
connected from
that day.

Books of poetry,
emotionless words
until I touched the
pen and that is
when my heart
could be heard.

Music from the angels
borrowed for all time,
the melody so sweet
for you and I.

Books of poetry,
emotionless words
until I touched the
pen and that is
when my heart
could be heard.

The Voice of My Heart

I saw it in the rain
and I felt in my heart
your love was with
me from the start.


The storms of life
are just a reminder
your love is part
of a real spellbinder.

Heart, Soul and Mind

I wished to be a song bird,
to sing sweet melody as if
the words could fill the air
with romance and dreams.

I wished to be a rainbow,
to arch across the heavens blue
while joining heart to heart
and allowing our love through.

I wished to be a snowflake
to just once touch your cheek
and feel the warmth of flesh
as my heart melts free.

I wished to conquer time,
to turn seconds into hours
while making each moment
last while our souls blaze
on fire.

I stopped the wishes, no
dreams did I need as I
looked into my heart
I felt you close to me.

I felt an unusual calm a
moment to remember
for the melody is playing,
the rainbow a bridge to
you and every falling
snowflake is my heart
melting from your love
so true.

I have conquered time,
it has no hold on you or I,
for our love is truly eternal
and will be here through
the power of heart, soul
and mind.

Amazing Night Sky

I looked at the amazing night sky,
so many stars were shining bright.
There is a constant reminder of
how close and how far, as you
are a distance away and yet here
in my heart.

The constellations revealed to the
eye, birds, animals and a horse in
flight. I gazed longer and to me
appeared the merging of hearts
and the love we share.

I looked at the amazing night sky,
so many stars were shining bright.
There is a constant reminder of
how close and how far,as you
are a distance away and yet here
in my heart.

~

Stars bright, starry night 
my dreams are all of you. 
Stars bright, starry night, 
my heart says " I love you."

Our love, so fine, it secures
its place in time. Forever, 
eternal, two hearts as one
written in my journal. 

Stars bright, starry night 
my dreams are all of you. 
Stars bright, starry night, 
my heart says " I love you."

~

My heart the puzzle,
the pieces tossed to sea
and if you put it all together
you'll find that you belong
with me.

Somethings are written in
the heavens above and
nothing can change the
magic of our special love.

My heart the puzzle,
the pieces tossed to sea
and if you put it all together
you'll find that you belong
with me.
~

Dance with me,
take my hand and
dance with me.

Love with me,
my heart is yours,
love with me.

Dream with me,
the night is ours,
dream with me.

~
I held on to the night sky,
though morning appeared
as I couldn't let go of
the love we share.

The sun is now shining,
but in my heart you'll see
the reflection of the night
as you dance with me.

I held onto the night sky,
though morning appeared
as I couldn't let go of
the love we share.

Life

The stars shine,
the river winds
and the road leads
directly to you.

People are passing
and some stay awhile,
but only one can still
bring me a smile.

The day is new,
the sky is blue
and you are with me
at the gate of my dreams.

The stars shine,
the river winds
and the road leads
directly to you.

~
I had a dream clear as can be,
a hello and goodbye is what
could be seen.

Friendship embracing, waving
goodbye, tears drops and heartache
under bluest of skies.
~

Sings>I went about embracing 
my yesterdays, when life
seem rather simple and 
there were no signs of gray. 

It is true I was much younger
and playful was I as my heart
jumped from cloud to cloud 
across the blue of the sky. 

Time is the great challenge
it robs us of our youth and 
trades the child like laughter
to our more mature truth. 

The journey is not quite over and
the dreams don't look the same,
there is still an essence of the 
unknown that rules to this day. 

I think it might be true that your
arms wait for me and I wonder
if its possible that it is where I
was always meant to be. 

The sky blue is draped in gray,
with a cloud of darkness that 
just won't drift away. 

I look to tomorrow with my 
eyes closed and I open up 
my heart to lead me down
the road. 

I don't want much and I need
even less, peace and happiness
is what I'll put to the test. 

I went about embracing 
my yesterdays, when life
seem rather simple and 
there were no signs of gray. 

~
I am gonna whisper words of love to you....

I can't wait to fall asleep to dream you in my arms,
to feel your heart beating under the celestial stars.
I lay here with a smile silly on my face as I find
myself racing to that clouds you and I made.

No new years resolution,
no wants or needs, I am
content with who I am
and all of my dreams.

Reality has spoken
it reveals aggressively
that I have no hold
on life, life has a hold
on me.

Dinner For Two

It was far from a Rockwell Christmas. As everyone had some place to be, I had this perfect dinner table set for my son and I. After dinner on his way over to his girlfriends house, he text me . " You didn't fail at dinner it was perfect if only you could have shared it with the people you wanted to. What I mean is , you didn't burn dinner " I laughed I am good at burning dinner.I am a fish out of water.

Dinner for two,
just you and I
and the clouds
above and a
blue sky.

I'd give anything
to be with you,
today and tomorrow
just us two.

Dinner for two,
just you and I
and the clouds
above and a
blue sky.

I'd give my soul,
I'd trade it right out
for just one moment
with my dearest of
love.

Dinner for two,
just you and I
and the clouds
above and a blue
blue sky

"Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas" by Frank Sinatra

As I find myself looking for that peaceful place , listening to music and being grateful for this special time and the special people in my life I feel a true sense of peace. So many people miss what Christmas is about and the spirituality and joy that brings comfort. At this moment there are no wants or needs, for the magic of a second I can close my eyes and find you here with me. Love is that powerful and that magical.

My arms are empty
and my heart is full,
the magic of love
has taken hold.

Holiday each day of
the year as I celebrate
and feel you near.

Christmas Snow

Merry Christmas each day of the year,
may you find peace and happiness in
the love we share.

Merry Christmas dream on if you will
if the possible is possible, my love
is what you'll feel.



'll create a moment,
special as can be,
the fireplace a blaze
and you next to me.

The snow is falling
and the music softly
plays as I feel your
tenderness as you
breathe life into me.

There is no signs of
darkness, only the
love of light can be
found as we gaze
out the window
and watch  the
snow falling down.

My heart races
and peace is all
around, I am in
the arms of love
and there is
happiness
abound.

Gentle kisses
and a warm embrace
as we celebrate the
holiday in our own
special way.

~

Nothing can take your love from me,
the gift is in my heart for all eternity.
Time tested as the devil made his play
but we have risen above the obstacles
that were placed in our way.

Stronger and stronger by the moment,
and so much more special by the hour,
the greatest gift of love is so wonderful
and heavenly inspired.
~

I am not the writer,
the script out of my
hands, all I know
is that circumstance
set the demands.

Choices were many
and I guess we chose
a few and like the
seasons of life in the
wind they blew.

~
I gazed back through
the windows of time
and wondered about
the choices that leaves
you only in my mind.

The roads many,
the path but a few
that leads us to
the day where dreams
will come true.

~









Childhood dreams,
the snow is falling,
memories and in
my heart I hear
you calling.

Whispers soft,
words of love
warm thoughts of
that special one.

 ~



Christmas snow a blanket of winter white,
lying here alone wishing you by my side.
Tree half decorated and no cookies baked,
you are the missing element for a holiday.

Consumed by thoughts of you as I
close my eyes to see our sky blue.
Clouds are cast in gray, waiting for
you to dance them all  away.

The day just won't be the same,
I reckon that is the price we pay.
Miles apart and close in heart,
wishing you here from afar.

Merry Christmas

Hold on to the magic
and never let it go,
like a child of faith,
remember how
love grows.

The warmth that you
feel, the tenderness of
touch is from the love
we share and means
so very much.

As a child I looked on at the Christmas holiday as a peaceful time of year. But as I have gotten older I realize hell doesn't stop for many. War, hunger, car accidents, illness, the wrath of mother nature, crime will all have an affect on the world around us. Yet Christmas comes with a message, the message of hope through faith. Can you imagine a world that operates according to the plan according to the angels of goodness?
As I have taken more of interest in reading history, you find that history does indeed repeat itself. That is a scary thought , because the human history is one of greed and violence. My wish for all this Christmas is that everyone find through faith the message of hope and have a holiday that is governed by peace.

I believe in angels,
in dreams that come
true. That the gift is
in the giving and that
and that love will see
us through.

I believe that faith
will walk us through
the night and give
to us a vision that
will guide us through
life.

If I Could Trade Kisses

If I could trade kisses for all of my dreams,
I wouldn't be here without you next to me.
I'd have you in my arms where you should be
and not just in my heart and sweet memories.

If I could trade kisses for all of my dreams,
I wouldn't be here without you next to me.
I'd wake up each morning with such delight,
knowing that each day would start out just right.

If I could trade kisses for all of my dreams,
I wouldn't be here without you next to me,
Sharing the treasures of a simple day,
making memories that won't fade away.

When it's Chistmas you can

When it's Christmas you can
do what you can't ever do
can start to play again
can start to dream again
can start again the time
that you used to chase that much

It's Christmas
and when it's Christams you can do much more
It's Christmas
and when it's Christams you can love much more
It's Christmas
and when it's Christams you can do much more... for us

When it's Christmas you can...

When it's Christmas you can
say what you can never say
that it's nice to be together
that you feel like you can fly
I wish I cry out
how much I love you

It' Christmas .... [refrain]

Blue light
something shines into your soul
it's your need to love
that not only at Christmas
but every day will grow, if you want

It's Christmas
and when it's Christmas you can do much more
It's Christmas
and when it's Christmas you can love much more
It's Christmas
and from Christmas on, you can have more trust

When it's Chistmas you can...you can put more confidence.

Snap the Moment

I can trace the stars that lead me to you, I'd follow through the heavens searching the skies blue. Sing and dance as silly as can be until I find my love who should be here with me. The dreams are calling , heavy are my eyes, my heart still racing to get there to our cloud. Mixed emotions, with tears and smiles, counting on the dreams to bring you around. 

There is only one sky over you and I. The moon, sun and many stars a blanket in the sky. Covers both you an I as it closes the distance in a matter of time. Close your eyes and you will find that I am in your arms for all time. 

 ~

Visualize that you are here with me, my head upon your chest and your heart beating rapidly. My hand gentle wipes your brow as I look into your eyes with a warm and gentle smile. 

Snap the moment and file it away, to retrieve on the days when we are lonely, When the skies are dark and gray you can bring out the memories to bring joy your way. 

.

Like a page from a story the words will reveal the greatest love in this whole wide world. This moment special it rules the sky, like a gift from the heavens it unites you and I. 

Big and bright shining down on us,

full moon glow over you and I. 

Distance quickly disappears the

miles fading into thin air. 

Winter skies tease the heart, 

romantic stars drop down from 

afar. Lifting you and I into the

clouds as we dance all around. 

. 

...who holds my heart.

Beautiful Love Story

It is not a once upon a time 

or a lame fairy-tale of sort,

the love story is beautiful and

written by the heart. 

The pages record the days 

that have long gone by with

a blend of emotion that puts

the blue in the sky. 

Conveyed in the story is the 

meeting of two souls on the

journey through life where

the unexpected unfolds. 

Passion I am sure helped 

to write the script, adding 

desire for sweetness of 

the most pleasurable kiss. 

Patterned  after the truest 

form of love, forever rules

the time by creating this 

one on one. 

The documentation is 

in the book of  Eternity, 

where our love will go 

on living like the sweetest

of daydreams. 

~

The memories break the silence 

with the laughter that won't let go ,

from the moment I wake up 

I feel the warmth of heart that 

could melt the winter snow. 

The words are written of 

the deep felt embrace that 

happened one day when 

angels sent you in their place. 

You have my heart to treasure 

if you will, I hope that you 

understand , that time does 

not stand still. 

~

I found myself daydreaming and

my thoughts are always of you. 

There are somethings that can't 

change that sky so blue. 

The dreams a comfort of a 

sweet embrace and surreal the 

image as we kiss face to 

face. 

The truth is rather simple and 

there is no denying so that you

hold my heart and you have 

never let it go.
~

Breathless Desire

Winter

I went about remembering the winters of long ago, when building snowmen was the only way to go. Brisk and chilly winters, ice skating on the pond and watching the children sled ride and singing silly songs. Time has quickly passed, no babies have I and find myself reminiscing of that far away time. Looking out the window and all is a blanket of white that cast a glow upon the day with a iridescent light.


Early darkness,
skies of gray with
a blanket of white
and a chill to the day.

Twelve by twelve room,
my computer and I while
I sit here dreaming of
warm summer time.

~

Love

As close as the butterfly on the crocus scattered over the hills and further than the mountains beyond the Adirondack trails. Divided by the rivers, separated through time and yet as close as each dreamy thought that passes through my mind.

No loneliness, desperation or fear and only warm memoriescontinue to reappear. The sweetness of your voice sings ,like waking up to a magical rivalry. Music jump starts, by playing directly to my heart a melody for two written especially for me and you.


Never alone, never one, when you touched my heart, our souls bonded by love.

Never alone, never one, you bridged the seas and that can't be undone.

Never alone, never one, as I take to the clouds with my special love.

Never alone, never one,my angel, my darling my dreams above.

Wings/Paul McCartney - Treat Her Gently (Lonely Old People)

On the Fifth Day of Christmas

Sappy holiday movies, Christmas trees and all that comes with the season. When you get to this time in life you think the crystal ball of wisdom does reveal the schematic for happiness. But in all reality we had always been able to experience happiness we just didn't look deep enough into our own heart.
Retailers have away of making you think that happiness is about the gift. But I have learned my lesson the hard way it is not what you wrap in a package and give away, it is what you receive from the one you love. Happiness is sharing with the one you love.

In the middle of a storm
the wind in control and
all seems hopeless till
your hand I hold.

You are my sunshine
each morning, my stars
in the night, you are
my dreams of delight.

It's not like I never really had a concept of how happiness occurs. We all have the ability to be happy but that happiness is magnified when we surround ourselves with love. Ahh I thought, so love is the gift, to be loved and to return love. Every child needs it from birth till the moment they part earth It  can felt in a touch, shared in a glimpse and reviewed through a memory.

I felt the joy
that only love can bring,
somehow it got a hold
on me.

Comforts when sad,
gives hope through the day,
love and happiness found
its way.

When my adult children were giving me their spin of being the Grinch. They didn't get the gift they wanted or they hate all the hoopla. I felt like I must have let them down and that they didn't understand  that the holiday was about the time we share, going to church, having dinner, baking cookies, decorating the tree, building a snowman, making angels, reading stories , dancing an singing songs and playing board games and so much more.

To see your smile,
feel your love
while we share
in the dreams above.

To celebrate each day
and give gratitude for
all that comes our
way.

Living and loving is
the true gift of life
unwrapped each day
makes the day bright.

I thought of all the people who were alone and sad and how the loneliness might consume them. Just because we are given a schematic for happiness doesn't mean people know how to read it. Happiness comes in all shapes and sizes, with people and places that you never dream. In all reality we may become the company we keep but we also have the power to create our own happiness. If you keep love in your heart and you never share it weighs a soul down and blinds the spirit.

Building a bridge of memories
I reached out and held you to me.
The dreams bring a smile to my face
like the kiss of happiness that nothing
can replace.

With all the negativity in the world and the sadness that evil can claim in a minutes time, many people wonder how can you rise above the darkness. For those who choose to claim the tool of evil, the rest of us armed with the tool of goodness. That is where the freedom of choice comes from. We choose bad things to happen? We do and we don't but we are a product our choices. That is the consequence that comes from our own weakness. People are not perfect, there is no Rockwell painting and our human traits can occasionally blind us to the simplicity of life. Love is caught in a snow storm, at the bedside of a person stricken by disease or illness, sharing in a cup of tea, walking down by the river on a cold windy day, sharing in a few words and wiping away a tear.

Catching snow flakes,
dreaming of you and
a dance on the clouds
and sky so blue.

Happiness is what I
share with the one
who stopped and
dare to care.

On the fifth day of Christmas my true love gave to me a world of memories.

Hello, How are you?

Built on a memory
in the clouds up high,
a dance of sweet embrace
truly bonds you and I.

That is how forever got
it's start, began with a
hello and from there
we could not part.

The story of love
has no end in sight,
only happiness as we
journey through life.

~

Hello, how are you?
I am fine and you?
The words simple
connected two.

Hello, how are you?
I am fine and you?
Opened the doorway
and your love came
flooding through.

Hello, how are you?
I am fine and you?
The words and extension,
in a dream that dares
to come true.

Hello, how are you?
I am fine and you?
The joining of hearts,
the embrace of souls
and that is how forever
reached out and took
a hold.

Luther Vandross - Always and Forever

Ella Fitzgerald - I've Got My Love To Keep Me Warm

All is as it should be....it is not a simple dream

All is as it should be when you are here with me, I can feel it in my heart, it is not a simple dream. 
You are the spark that sends the sunshine my way and the music of life that plays a song of love each day

All is as it should be when you are here with me,I can feel it in my heart, it is not a simple dream. 
You comfort my soul day after day in the dance upon the clouds where our souls chase away the gray.

All is as it should be when you are here with me, I can feel it in my heart, it is not a simple dream.
Wakes me in the morning with a kiss upon my lips and embraces with a goodnight passionate moment of bliss. 



 The clouds are heavy,
 no stars can be found, 
the moon is hidden and 
snow is falling down.

 Draped in darkness and 
yet I can see the world of 
love you share with me. 

~
As long as I hold you here in my heart I can
feel the love that brings you from afar. 
As long as the dreams embrace the night, 
I'll be happy for the rest of my life.

Our Hearts Forever One

The moon has quickly faded as
the early morn brings the sun
and still I lay here dreaming
unable to completely function.

I conjure up the dreams,
I create them from memory
casting you the lead that
holds me for eternity.

Time goes on recording
the days that pass on by
but nothing really matters
as long as you are by my
side.

Your hand safe in mine,
our hearts forever one,
that is love as it's meant
to be, forever young.

~ It was rather simple as easy as can be, I closed my eyes and you were dancing here with me. Spinning in circles I spun with delight, filled with happiness I followed the light. Love is in my heart, well kept for eternity and in my soul the gift as we bonded out of need.

You Are My Love

Grateful am I for peace I have, 

when I think of you my heart 

to my soul confides. 

Love is precious a beautiful day

when dreams come sailing our 

way. 

Grateful am I for you I have, 

the love that I tucked safely

away. 

You are my love, my angel, my paradise,

 and my joy that makes life seem right. 

From morning and through the night 

your all of my thoughts , the center 

of my life. 

I wrote words and erased them quickly 

as if I could alter life and rewrite a 

dream. 

I spoke of angels and a song of love while

I sang out loud as if you were singing along. 

My heart is embracing the moment of desire

as if I were in your arms where I truly belong. 

I am constantly reminded of our vulnerability, 

within one moment the end can replaced by a 

dream. 

So I repeat the words that time will carry on,

the words of love that becomes the next love

song. 

Distance a barrier that holds us apart and 

yet in an uncanny way I meet you each 

night above the stars. 

~

Thousands upon thousands of words to write, 

the combinations are endless like the stars in

the sky. 

I ask myself the question

of where I should be and 

the answer is always the 

same, in your arms 

peacefully. 

The thoughts are comfort

the images surreal and as 

I close my eyes your love

is what I feel. 

There is essence to the 

moment that I can't really 

explain, but sadly enough

it is time that gets away. 

~

I thought it was in madness

what I held to this day and 

as I whispered in the darkness

I begged the heavens to take 

your way. 

Somethings are fleeting 

like a mixed up aimless

dream and other things

are forever like the love

you share with me. 

Follow your heart and 

follow your dreams as 

one day you'll find out 

just what it all means. 

Where will it take us.

and what will we do?

How long will we have

to make dreams come 

true.?

Follow your heart and 

follow your dreams as

one day you'll find out

just what it all means. 

Dreams are a Catalyst

Dreams are a catalyst to bring you near,
to erase all the darkness and traits of fear.
I could go on sleeping both day and night,
while rewriting yesterdays script of life.

I carry you with me where ever I go,
you are always in my heart and it shows.
You are the sparkle found in my eyes
and the partner on that cloud of mine.

I document through a word or two,
the magical love that lives on in all I do.
The fire like energy from soul to soul,
ignites the moment and takes control.

Dreams are a catalyst to bring you near,
to erase all the darkness and traits of fear.
I could go on sleeping both day and night,
while rewriting yesterdays script of life.

~
The moon was shining
and it brightly lit up the sky,
until a cloud in passing 
blocked it from sight. 

It connected me to you, 
one sky over us all and 
I knew if I could see it
it would break the devils
spell.

Listen To Your Heart

If you take the time to listen to your heart, would you be surprised who held it from the start? The dance upon the clouds where dreams become real, the arms that hold you tight and the love you certainly can feel.

I am listening! I am listening!
speak heart, speak to me,
tell me the truth of love,
don't coddle with a dream.

I am listening! I am listening!
speak heart, speak to me,
send me in the direction
my soul is meant to be.

~

Some are merrily puppets on a string,
dancing like fools as empty hearts sing.
Little do they know the truth from inside
that love is not be creation, it is when
two souls collide.

I Can Feel Your Love

I can feel your love,
see the dream and
know you are here
beside me.

Happiness is what
you bring, it is all there
is and it's all I need.

I can feel your love,
see the dream and
know you are here
beside me.

Life is a story written by hope, faith and

 chance and occasionally by circumstance.

I began to think about my promise of writing poetry. The words were to be written in the honor of love and the meeting of two souls. The years have passed by and time has taken it tolls and it occurred to me I cannot document the emotions of another.  The words are simply a catalyst for that which flows through my own heart. My wants, needs and desires that either have been met or exist only in a dream.

The holidays are always and extra emotional time as they are for many people. Sometimes it is the mirror of the past that we can no longer recreate that plays tricks with the mind. Part of me wants to celebrate the holiday with grand gesture and another part of me wants to hide till the hoopla and the winter season is over.

As I glance out the window at the bare trees covered in snow I find myself being drawn into the panoramic view of winter. There is a silence that is haunting and a stillness to the moment that holds still for a brief period of time all memories. Like a collage where the images merge together, the past settles in while creating its own canvas.

 

In the Dark of the Night

The trees seem to dance with the wind
as their branches arch to the ground ,
the sounds of autumn leaves crackle
while the winter snow falls gently
down.

My heart races for the very moment,
the dreams that only love inspires,
from the time you first said hello
and my soul was set  passionately
a fire.

~
The darkness is overwhelming
closing in with the night,
like a blanket that muffles the
evening, the silence I cannot
fight.

~

I could travel the world,
climb the mountains high,
sail across the mighty ocean
but from your love I cannot
hide.

Like a star shining in the
sky or a dream that waits
to come true is the love
that rules the blue.

~

My heart is heavy,
a weight I cannot bear,
each moment we're a
part is filled with the
loneliness I fear.

The days are quickly
passing, the night now
 left to rule and as I
lake here awake I
tremble like a silly
fool.

~
How many tears must fall?
How many shall we wipe
away? I know not the
answers as I hope we
replace those skies of
gray.


I hunger to lay within your
arms, to listen to each heart
beat and know that no matter
what happens, love will hold
us through the night.

~

The Rolling Stones - Get Off of Our Cloud - Lyrics

Scattered Across the Sky

When it is all over and
the book is indeed done,
there still will be you and I
and that is what I call love.

Written by the heart and
reviewed by the soul,
the meeting of you and I
is what needs to be told.

The pages are like stars
scattered across the sky
revealing the tale of how
your heart met with mine.
~

One step, two step...

One step, two step, three step, four,
spin around and dance some more.
Hold my hand, my heart is yours,
in our embrace of forevermore.

One step, two step, three step, four,
 ever close on heavens dance floor.
Nothing can take away the love
we share to this day.

Field of Memories

I find myself having to look beyond the day. Sometimes that can be very difficult and it takes an unexpected moment to just jump start life in an usual way. There are colors of a rainbow that few have yet to see, like the grayish blue of sorrow and the sunshine yellow that brings your love to the day. You gave me a rainbow as a gift to the heart, with colors of love that truly brought you from a far. In my dreams I am in your arms, my head against your chest as I close my eyes and visualize the moment where my soul can truly rest.


There is no sun in the sky
and no clouds passing by,
as gray is the color when
you are not by my side.

I find myself dreaming,
of the way it should be,
daisy's and butterflies
in the field of memories.




~

La, La, La

I have watched for falling stars,
unlocked and revealed my heart,
held the dream of forevermore
in hopes that love is in store.

I have held you in the night,
the embrace of love that makes
you mine. Kissed your lips
and held your hand envisioned
love  making upon the sand.

I have watched for falling stars,
unlocked and revealed my heart,
held the dream of forevermore
in hopes that love is in store.

I have danced upon the clouds,
where only joy is allowed.
Tired I laid in your arms,
listening to the beat of your heart.

I have watched for falling stars,
unlocked and revealed my heart,
held the dream of forevermore
in hopes that love is in store.

I have wished upon a flower,
watched the rain a barrel fill,
thought of all the ways to
make time stand still.

I have watched for falling stars,
unlocked and revealed my heart,
held the dream of forevermore
in hopes that love is in store.

So close and so far...

I don't know the reason for the walls of despair,

sorrow must have built them from one that doesn't care.

I know what love can do , piece by piece the bricks

are removed to let your love shine through.

 

~

Speak soul, speak soft the words of love

and rejoice in all that we can do, For

we removed the mountains and we

painted the sky an awesome blue.

 

Sing soul, sing of love and the magic

that brought me to you, Sing soul

with a word and let the happiness

of your warmth shine through.

 

~

I hear the voice of love,

I hear it call out to me,

like a song of the blue bird

and the happiness found in

my dreams.

 

~

Every la, la , la, is sent to you my sweet

and I'll tell you why, as you have made

the stars yours and mine. Every la, la, la

I sing is filled with the magic of  dreams

and the love of you and I.
