Pillow Talk

…when you share heart and soul.

I closed my eyes and there you were, 

maybe I should take up sleep walking.

I felt the rain falling upon my flesh 

and danced , laughed and rejoiced for it could have been snow.

The clouds are dark and gray 

yet the stars still blanket over you and I.

Counting sheep... quit throwing extra sheep my way.

Kissing you good morning and again good night,

I am not getting off the ride. 

I don't think I have changed much over the years...I still believe love can move mountains.

Many times I wanted to have time stand still,

all of them place me in your arms.

My daydreams and nightly dreams have one thing in common...you.

Someone once said that God was a cruel God,

so said the person who's "glass is half empty"

When I think of you the whole world knows it , 

because I walk around with this silly smile on my face 

and a sparkle in my eyes.

Once upon a time...I was graced by an angel, 

that is how I want my story to start and end.

When you found that forever and always...

Everyone wants a chapter but

only one person gets the whole book.

Mature love is quite different in many aspects, 

it is much more understanding and patient, 

yet it is filled with all the joy and excitement 

that can be felt by the sharing of hearts 

The heart interacts with the moment 

that is what we call love.

Fate brought us together,
choice interlocked our hands,
love fused our hearts and souls.
~
On a moonlit night there is only you and I,
all else fades into the abyss.
~
I overcome my fears by
facing my demons head on.
~
The world is but a puzzle
each piece providing us with more clarity.
~

Put me on the spot and my mind goes blank...so he says.
~
I once met lust and that was fun
and than I met love and that was rewarding.
~

The stubborn streak is
a defense mechanism.
~

I always read from the back forward

so I know what is happening but

in this case it doesn't matter

where you start.

When you think you are all that, remember that
earth is so minute to the universe and
we are not nearly a speck of sand.
~

My moon is your moon ,

my stars are your stars,

my heaven is your heaven,

my love is your love.

~

When you feel distanced by the
 mountains look to the sky,

 I am right beside you.

~

I don't want to share a place in death ,

I want to share a place in life.

Unlocking the combination of words to
celebrate love is an expression of joy.

~
My mind bounces around so
much that I can see heaven and hell in one glimpse.

~
Am I touching hearts or is it hearts that are touching me?

~
Envy is a sorrowful emotion ,as it is true
we don't know what is in someone else's head.

~
When you accept the past
you are than able to move on to the future.
~




Rejoice heaven is at our fingertips.


`
To embrace love is to live love.


~
On a clear day I can see forever...
~

If you over look the brightness of the stars

and the magic of clouds you will allow

the darkness a place with your soul.

~
I would rather say hello a thousands times
than say goodbye once.
~
I think everyone needs a good cry,
it is like cleansing the canvas of the soul.
~

~
Silence begins to chatter...

~
You are crystal I am lace.
~

The willingness to love brings out our vulnerability.
~
The heart that aches
was allowed to feel.

~
The troubled mind places the lock upon the soul.
~

I was taught to question all that is,

why is it the answers have not yet revealed themselves?

~

The greatest feat that man can achieve

is to continue on without end as far as I know
we only get one time around.

~

Truth is what you believe it to be,

my truth and your truth may very.

~

It was when I wasn't looking

that I found myself to be most vulnerable.

~

Everyone has a beginning and a end,

from the moment of conception.

~



I empowered others with control,
I gave them my happiness.
~
Because I understand does not mean I approve.
~

Love is pure trickery,

how can something so beautiful be so painful?

~

I gave my heart without thought,

you gave it back with much thought.

~

It was once said " it is not enough to demand

respect but to command respect"

~

Loneliness reveals itself in the

absence of a soul mate.

~

One who dares to love creates a spark.

two who dear to love creates a flame

that burns indefinitely.

~



It was in absence of love that I identified the source.
~

I experienced passion,

but craved love.

To love is to step upon the cloud,

to be loved is to dance upon the cloud.

~

Love is nothing until shared

and then it becomes a chapter.

~

There are many ways to love,

but none is equal to the passion

 that exudes from the heart.

~

Sing like your a rock star,
even if you sound like a frog.  

~
A quick change of scenery
is not the answer as we always return to the place of...
~

" Pretend your old and walk around walmart."..Thanks I am old.
 ~
I did not choose to love,
it just happens.
~
Soul mates are based on similarity.

~
You can change the mind set,
but the circumstances remain the same.

~
Watching the grass grow isn't cutting it,
but cutting it isn't watching it grow.
~
I am trapped...
~
Do we control the mind or does the mind control us ?
~
You were to close to the edge of my cloud,
I couldn't resist...
~
There are all kinds of games,
but no one wins at a game of the heart.
~
Hope and dreams might be all we have,
but consider not having them at all...
~
I can interpret the same situation many ways,
but it always affects me the same.
~
I made myself a prisoner,
bound my despair.
~
I can' t cry the tears have dried up.

~

They say "the eyes are the windows to the soul"

but it hurt so much because I closed the windows

and I opened the doors.

~

You can die more than once,

I have died so many times I have lost count.

~

Happiness is like love,

they both need to be shared.

~

Who blew up my bridge?

This is my cloud ...so dance!

~

Our character is built upon our past experiences,

without them we are an empty canvas.

~

There is no point smiling unless someone can see it.

~

Am I who people think I am or who I think I am ?

~

Unlocking the combination of words to
celebrate love is an expression of joy.

~
My mind bounces around so
much that I can see heaven and hell in one glimpse.

~

~





~

I write to free my soul.

~

My heart and soul have come

together and still they battle.

~

In the world of imagination

all is as it should be.

~



I empowered others with control,
I gave them my happiness.

~

Love is pure trickery,

Heart and Soul

Here in the moment
a kiss or two as I hold
on to this sweet dream
where the skies are blue.

Drawn to your charm
the magic so very surreal
as I feel your warm love
render my heart still.

Good morning kiss
and a warm hug or two
with a smile on my face
as I reach out for you.

Somethings are special
and can't be explained
like a meteor shower
on a hot summer day.

Tender embrace
interlocking two souls,
a reminder that we are
beyond this earthly hold.

No void left deep inside
when we connect both
the soul with the mind,
the treasure divine is
what entwined your
soul with mine.

Heart and Soul

I am a strong believer that all we need to  know about life comes from nature it self. It gives us lessons on love, peace, respect as well as situations that are out of our control. As in caring for a flower we get to appreciate a bloom, respecting our surroundings we are granted a peaceful view.

The cool mornings of Autumn

allow us to appreciate the warm afternoons.

 

 

 

As I was walking along the stream caught between Molly catching a chipmunk and the minnows racing for cover, I found my self in awe of nature. The song came to mind and I began to sing" more than the greatest love the world has known" It was at this moment when the merging of souls and the sharing of a moment made all that much more sense. Love is the sharing of a moment, whether that be the nuthatch waiting its turn at the bird feeder or the squirrel jumping branches or the simple notion of one heart caring for another.

 

Our heart is indeed a puzzle

with various pieces interlocking to provide us with a view of life.

 

~

 

Love is simply appreciating

the magic of sharing heart and soul.

Heart and Soul

Heart and Soul

'Singing> I'm gonna catch me one of those snowflakes,

and hold it in my heart, feel your love as it slowly melts.

The wind might direct it, but this I know to be true, that

you sent the snowflakes via the sky of blue.

I'm gonna catch me one of those snowflakes and hold it

in my heart, feel your love as it slowly melts.

The road might be blinding and the sun a little shining,

but nothing melts a snowflake like the love of two.

I'm gonna catch me one of those snowflakes and hold it

in my heart, feel your love as the slowly melts.

The world might not see it, but the image is clear, it melted

in my hands to my heart reappear.

I'm gonna catch me of those snowflakes and hold it in

heart, feel your love as it slowly melts.

To slow the hands of time you have,

to share as much as possible,thus

recording the chapters we bring

to life the dreams.

~

Sharing my heart and soul on the

ever winding journey that leads

from the core of our dreams to

the heavens.

~

I'm up before the sunrise, it's early in the morn,

raindrops are falling so much for the snowstorm.

I won't be building snowmen, no angels in the

snow and still I can't let the images of love go.

I think about our hands locked as one, on

the journey of life and the rails of our love.

I don't know what the Lord was thinking,

to keep you from me, on the road of life,

its your love that sets me free.

I know sometimes I'm childish and I want

you so, the child in me never wants to let go.

I'm up before the sunrise, it's early in the morn,

daydreaming about the moment our love first born.

~

There's a song I sing and a vision I dream , of a perfect world where you're dancing with me. The kiss of life has not always been so sweet until I felt the warmth of your love to my cheek.

I'm taking the darkness, I am in control this choreographed daydream cast you to hold. Hold my heart, my love and my dreams and hold this moment for all eternity.

The smile that only love can bring, has my heart on the clouds singing. Sings of happiness in the most magical way, like the wind to the ocean it directs you my way.

Heart and Soul

You embrace my being to the extent

that my heart continously feels your love .

~

You can allow many people into your heart,

but only one can touch the soul in such

a way as to embrace immortality.

The words... till the ends of time.

My heart is the vessel in which my soul seeks passage.

What words have yet to be written and what songs are still left to sing? My soul responded quickly, " we have all eternity". My heart took unto singing ,the words joyously devised, to rewrite the wrongs of life and walk with you side by side.

No longer shall I close my eyes, my soul no longer needs to cry, visions of your love, have taken over my mind. Can you hear the words! my love ? Can you feel them inside?Release the chains of madness and reach out and pull me by your side.

Wordless vibrations feel the room, as I celebrate in dance with you. La la la my heart sings, la la la sings out loud, la la la with the heavens, la la la I shout. La la la my heart sings, la la la out loud, la la la with the heavens, la la la I shout.

My Very Soul

I closed my eyes as I have many times before and in the breath of a moment I felt your love ignite the flames of my very soul. With passion my guide, I followed the trail of fire that led you into my arms. The Images contrasting against the night sky, reminded me of the gifts bestowed upon me, like the midnight stars that burst in a shower of magic, creating an explosion of energy.

My Soul

A glimpse through my heart,

as my soul would have you view it.

To see clearly the reflection of the soul,

one must first be willing to release all self created restraints.

~

With heart and soul

Like the sun, which lights the morning sky, your love penetrates my heart as its reflection can be seen shining brightly upon my soul... this is the explosion of energy that ignites with the joy of love.

Rambles

The garden is a paradise in itself, with it comes an understanding and a respect for the lessons of Mother Nature. She teaches us about the calm before the storm, growth, blooms, heartache, faith, hope, desire and the lessons are ongoing. Today was a mixture of thunder storms, high winds and sunshine, it seem to stir a varied amount of emotions. After the storm we see clearly that the strong rooted and most healthiest of plants stood the storm better then the new weakened plants that had not yet grabbed root and collapsed with the pounding of heavy rain. The Peonies are preparing to bloom, I find the buds as beautiful as the blooms them self and have learned to respect all stages of its growth from the moment it breaks the earths crust to it reaches its full bloom.

I feel distant today, partly I find that I have done just a bit to much daydreaming and also that I am trying to bring some order to my thoughts and remind myself of my early in the year, New years Resolution and that was "to be honest with self through all that transposes. " I had wondered was life indeed like nature, all answers carefully hidden awaiting like a treasure chest to be found and the jewels exposed?

Bringing order into a life that had been in a disarray for many years is more difficult then one can imagine, I find my head spinning as I wonder what direction I should be heading. As puzzling as nature can be, I also find the heart to be a big puzzle, not necessarily in the same way. The heart is made up many pieces, just like chapters in a story, various kinds of love and those we love. I tried not to look at the pieces of the heart as a measurement of size but to find the place where they belong and accept the beauty of difference. It tends to lean towards organizing emotions, not lessoning the value of them, but understanding and also understanding that we cannot be responsible for the thoughts and dreams of others but only our own.

I looked back over the last thirty years and I see that much of it had teetered on the goals of the future that somehow collapsed over the years. I found myself treading in waters unidentified and somehow camoflauged but having the texture of quick sand. One foot in and I felt consumed by all that was happening. How was it these walls were built and was I responsible for mortering the brick? I had to question my part or the lack of it and the final outcome.

I looked at what it was I truly needed, or maybe what it was I wanted and I found it all to be clouded, with life comes death and with death an end. I looked around of that which had become my home the children rafting in the stream , the dog laying beneath my feet and the flowers from the garden setting on the table next to me. Enriched with a simplistic beauty and yet lacking something more , what was it that I truly needed to bring or fulfill the completeness that the soul so requires?The answers seem to flow like the stream into the river... in a partnership we seek friendship, I shall turn to you in time of need, but also in time of want to express and share my love for you. Respect, I will not fail to respect you and view life through your eyes as you view through mine. I will keep in confidence that which speaks without words but embraces with the heart. I will keep my mind open and listen to all that you have to say, who you are, your goals and all thoughts that make up your spirit. I will be honest with myself an allow that honesty to flourish within our relationship. I will promise to be better, for myself and for you so that we may enjoy all is we have to give of each other. I will continue to grow and experience and in doing so turn to you to share as we journey forward. I will express gratitude for all that you are and all that you are to me. I will find joy in each morning and a warmth each night and I will savor the smiles that we are able to give each other. The ever importance of touch, I will embrace from a distance further then the stars in the sky or the mountains that expand the miles. I will always love and recieve love and never question such beauty. I will see in you, what you see me, the bonded reflection of love

In my Heart

What is in my heart?

Many layers one upon the other creates a nest of hope and faith for each day is like no other. Woven tightly in a warm embrace love was first to be found, as it secured a place in my dreams, with desire laced more tightly by the hour. The closer you allow your soul, the more that you will see that what is in my heart is the most beautiful reflection, the bond of you and me.

I was on prison release today, that is surely what it felt like. The magic of Greene is that it hasn't quite caught up with the rest of the world. You can travel for many miles without another car in either direction. The rain steady, tapered between a light sprinkle and then a on again off again heavy pour. My windshield wipers kept this cool rocking motion as they cleared the pounding of rain upon from the front window. The highway 218 cuts through the hills leading deep into backhills of West Virigina. The whole ride I kept thinking of you saying ah I wish I had my camera, I want to share the landscape, the horses grazing in the valley, the orchards in full bloom, the peacock eating out of my hand and the sun struggling to break through the dark and heavy clouds.
It was a sense of peace and tranquility and a true pleasure as I conversed with the owner of the newly opened winery and carefree enjoyed viewing the various gardens filled with the most fragrant of spring flowers. There was a complete freedom, a joy that I had not experienced. I traveled alone a little more each time, expanding and exploring and most of all making decisions along the way. The magic of it all was that I was absorbing like a well dried out sponge everything that crossed my path as if my mind were truly photographing the moment.
I cried for a few moments as I thought of the struggles in life that were created by my own choices and then quickly they faded as I new just like the vehicle I was driving was moving forward, I to was moving in a direction that was both positive and exciting.
Again this feeling of confidence came over me and after and hour of driving, I turned around to head back home, as I ran up the steps I was anxious to share with you my moments in the day, as I began to write tears again began to fall, not of sadness ,but of an accomplishment in the exploration of a new days journey.

In my mind, in my heart and right here next my soul...awaiting your arms embrace... how could I not love you.

Infusion

An infusion of your love warms my heart,

as it sets my soul a fire.

Heart and Soul

I embrace the morning as I do the night, passionately heart and soul.
~~~
I am not letting go because a day would be eternity without your love and eternity would be hell....
