Listen

Right outside my window, beyond the snow covered hills, I had fallen into your spell and now the story I'll tell. Love is awfully precious and magical as can be, it can soar a mountain and make reality from a dream. Teach lovers how to dance up in the heavens high and sing to the heart which I respond in a romantic sigh. Strolling through the moment which cast you by my side, I found a love that knows me from inside.

Right outside my window, beyond the time of day, I closed my eyes to listen to what my heart had to say. My heart spoke of treasures more precious than that of gold, it spoke of the greatest love the heart could ever hold. I listened closely to the words of my heart and again it spoke of your love like a mystic work of art. I knew from the very start that nothing creates such a fire as a love struck spark.

Oatmeal

If oatmeal you'll be needing, if love is your request, if dreams are the answer than my arms are where you'll rest. I'll gather up the sun rays to warm your heart and kiss you each morning both near and from a far. I'll love you forever and forever will my gift and as I write these words our love will stand the test. Listen to the angels their aim is never wrong they led you to me and that's the joy of their song. If oatmeal you'll be needing, if love is your request, if dreams are the answer than my arms are where you'll rest.

The Rocking Chair Dream

The rocking chair dream might mean something different to different people. I always thought of the rocking chair dream as a full sense of peace and contentment. What brings peace and contentment? I would say being understood allows a person to achieve with an unconditional acceptance and in that sense becoming one with nature, one with love,one with life.

What are my dreams? I would have to say that externally those dreams changed over my lifetime, from the simplistic desire to live in peace to the excitement that comes with the challenges each new day brings. Internally my soul seeks to find its place free of the restlessness and in the arms of love...

~

...to be loved as I love is the ultimate gift.

I am the flower that blooms atop the mountain,

the breath of air which reaches out with the power

of the wind to touch your soul...

Dreams

To share each moment,

to hold you in my heart,

dream the dream of lovers

and dance under the stars.

To listen to the angels,

record their every word,

the plan of the heavens,

to leave no stone unturned.

My dreams are rather simple,

as simple as can be, a walk

hand in hand, heart to heart

and souls free.

I remember the vacation that I recently took, the dolphins were jumping in the water and I found it to be the most amazing experience, to be that close in the water and swim next to them. I ran to shore to reach for my camera and I ran up the shore line to see if I could follow them and get a good photograph. What amazed me most was when I turned back to see the people just sitting there nonchalant neglecting the beauty of the world around them. They seem to take it all in such stride, as to not let it interfere with their daily doldrum of sun bathing or reading as they blocked out the world around them.

Underneath the heaven's wondrous sky of blue,

I drifted to the dreams of loving you.

Winter Day

I can soar like an eagle in flight,

high above the clouds where

dreams are all that's in sight.

We have each moment of a

new day and the tomorrow's

where memories are made.

~

I'm dancing on winters times, to songs played in my mind of you and I. I'm dreaming of a summer day, where you and I will have our way, under a summer blue. I'm singing silly songs, from my heart, a sing along with you and I.

~

I say it's possible, I know it to be true,

love has the ability to travel the blue.

It exist from the earth to the heavens high,

the magic of love that makes you mine.

~

Love... unconditional, indescribable energy.

~

I have seen it in the heavens as I gazed into the stars,

and felt its very power ignite the flame within my heart.

I didn't wish upon the moment or dream it to be so,

but along came the day and I was no longer alone.

~

There is no place for yesterday,

for today I lay claim. Smiles that

make you sing and dreams of

what tomorrow may bring.

~

Hold still I'm sending kisses,

don' t you move or they just

might miss ya. Hold still

I'm sending kisses to you.

Hold still and let the sky

surround, it's my hug to

let you know I'm around.

Hold still and let the sky

surround you.

Hold still and let the

wind blow, whispers of

how I love you so. Hold

still and let the wind

blow my love to you.

The Possiblities

Take my hand and you'll see the possibilities,

the roads we yet to travel as we take the

world by storm.

We'll make the sun shine brighter, make the

sky a brilliant blue, we'll make the world a

better place, just by letting our love shine

through.

Take my hand and you'll see the possibilities,

the roads we yet to travel as we take the

world by storm.

We'll make the day a little better, make our

hearts beat a little faster, as we dream of the

day we'll be dancing under the blue.

Take my hand and you'll see the possibilities,

the roads we yet to travel as we take the

world by storm.

We'll make the seasons relinquish their power

at will, to the master of the moment and the

tenderness we feel.

Take my hand and you'll see the possibilities,

the roads we yet to travel as we take the

world by storm.

~

I am not confusing the moment,

I refuse to let the gray, dampen

my spirit and chase the sunshine

away.

I don't see snow storms, I can't

feel the rain, all I know is what

came my way.

Love might make one tremendously

insane, as I find myself dancing

in the clouds night and day.

River

I stood by the river and I watched the water rise and as the rain was falling down, the current refused to subside. Oh! river you're awfully wide and to you I throw the secrets of my heart, soul and mind.

The river whispered "your secrets are safe with me and I know all about the love and the magic of your dreams. " Whether the season brings rain or snow, the rivers waters will carry my love as they flow.

Once more I gazed at the muddy waters ride and I wished for the moment when you would be standing here by my side. Oh! river you're awfully wide and to you I throw the secrets of my heart, soul and mind.

Sings> Oh! my love to you I sing, what can I give that will make you happy? I have no treasures of silver or gold, but all that I have you most certainly hold.

Oh! my love to you I sing, what can I give that will make you happy? I've whispered of love to the heavens high give to him all the love from deep inside.

Oh! my love to you I sing, what can I give that will make you happy? I've given my heart, my dreams and desire, I've given the moment to set afire.

Oh! my love to you I sing, what can I give that will make you happy? I'll give you the mountains, the sky of blue, I'll wrap it in passion and send it to you.

Happy Holidays

I am one of the fortunate ones, my son is on leave from the military and home for Christmas. There are men and women in the military who just may be separated from their family and who wont be home to share in the holiday in a safe and sound setting. To those who have sacrificed their lives to make ours a little more safer, my prayers for a peaceful holiday. As we don't know what tomorrow brings, I give special thanks that we live in a world where we can get up each morning and work magic with the miracles of life.

For a short period of time today I allowed the negativity of others to enter my world, to alter my peace and happiness and my joy in celebrating the birth of Jesus. Maybe it was a little self pity, a bit of being overwhelmed. I guess for me I have always been the sole source of creating the holiday atmosphere. and you could say I am a little bit behind schedule as I am between baking and cooking, I pass the living room and add a decoration to the tree. It is very easy to allow someone or something to dampen the spirits, to try and rob the soul of true happiness, but as I look not at what I don't have but what I do, my spirit is lifted and I feel a real sense of joy.

It was the silent screams, the ones you think no one can hear. When in reality people can hear them, because they to are sharing in them. Dusting off the negativity that surfaced this morning, I look to tomorrow and all that the future offers. It is like the rays of the sun that shine through the window and reflect upon my face, for that warmth of love I am blessed. I glanced up at the blue of the heavens and thanked the Lord that my children are well, that tomorrow will come and that no one can take away what is born in the heart at the souls request.

Love is not a man made creation, it is the warmth of spirit that has the ability to cross miles, to brings smiles, to create dreams. For the love you give and the love we share my deepest gratitude. Merry Christmas may the gift of love flourish throughout the year and may you find as I have that when you least expect it the most amazing things happen.

Snow Kisses

My gift to you is all my love for you,

nothing else will do than to share

my heart with you.

From the morning you wake up until

your fast asleep I'll be there sending

no kisses in your dreams.

My gift to you is all my love for you,

nothing else will do than to share

my heart with you.

The Heart Of Lovers

The heart of lovers and mind filled dreams,

mix with winter to create a scene.

Frost laced branches and boughs of green,

blend with love for you and for me.

The cold had faded by the love in your heart,

sparkling glitter remains like a star. From the

moment you reached on out to me, my soul

exclaimed, " your love now resides in me. "

December sun a reminder as well, that love

is the answers to the depths of hell. I'll be

here waiting if it takes eternity, as your

heart erases all the misery.

Listen closely and this you will find, the

day was pure pleasure when your heart

met mine. Each beat is to the steps of time

loves reminder that you'll always be mine.

Rainbow Snow

When I was I believe in kindergarten or maybe it was first grade, I couldn't wait to get to the painting easel in art class. Each time I would paint a variety of snow scenes, with various colors of snow. One day the teacher, said is that all you can do is paint polka dots on the canvas?I didn't think she was quite ready to hear my childhood theory on colored snow. So the next week when I returned to art class, I painted a rainbow of snowflakes. I would go home and mother always knew that the picture was another snowfall filled with color. She would say" ahhhhh beautiful red snow." I failed art class that year the teacher just didn't get colored snow.

My daughter came home from school excited and she had a candy dish that she painted, it was a rainbow Poinsettia. I was taken back by the variety of colors. She said " do you like it?" I said yes! she responded with" no you don't, I can tell by the look on your face." I really do love it, it is a little unusual for a Poinsettia, but it is a beautiful sentiment.

Colors, it's a little bit like life as the rainbow expresses and releases the mixed emotions from within. From my soul I give the blue of the sky to remind you that everything is possible under the heavens. The passionate power of red which allows you to absorb and display all the fiery emotions at once. The green like that of spring which again inspires a new day and the yellow of the sun that it may brighten your heart as you have brightened mine. These are a few of the colors that I have seen through the storms of life, each one has the ability to strengthen and give insight while holding on to the gift of love. I want to wish everyone a holiday filled with colors of the heart and as you gaze out the window this winter season may you enjoy the colors of rainbow snow.

Science looks at man in the obvious faction, our existence based on our chemical make up in the tree of elements. But the human form is much more complex than an oxygen based creature. What exactly sets us part and thus brings us together is the ever intriguing depth of the mind. We eat and exercise to nurture the body and at times starve our minds into a dark abyss, with very little understanding of own needs. There is again the obvious the need for companionship and passion which leads us to develop a deeper understanding of exactly who we are. It is the simplicity of life which is so over looked, a mere touch of the heart and soul can be as simple a smile or a warm gesture. Exactly what are our needs? That depends where we might be on that ever so winding journey.
I had read a series of books years back, the scene was set in a more nomadic or tribal period, one of the characters in the book searches desperately to find one of their own kind. If we are all human what is it we search for? That to would depend on the emptiness a person is trying to fill. The warmth of touch stimulates an excitement that can be both calming, loving and passionate. We are complex individuals especially when we deny our self the basic needs of both our earthly form and our spiritual hunger.

The outer shell reveals little of what is on the inside,
for we are capable of a portrait that to our own self denies.
I think every child knows it and every adult prepares for
life begins again once when you open your heart to share.

~

Love is the magic that prevails over all other emotions.

I am trapped in a snow globe

shake it up and watch it fall.
