Storm

Snow and rain, sleet and ice a blustery mixture of life.
Struggles, dreams and memories,
caught in every storm.

Layered rock is quite the norm, piece by piece a picture
forms. Sun baked smiles in various styles,
direct from you to me.

Winter Trickery

Oh! mother nature, she just loves to entertain us. Being a new driver on the road this was my first experience with the" next day, after the storm". Not allotting for extra time, I reached for my jacket and pink boots in place I ran down to the car. You just start up and go, that easy. Oh know, I can't go yet the windshield is frozen over. Well its not like it will thaw anytime soon, I better let the vehicle run a bit. I have to clear the window. I get out and take the scraper from the back seat and try to clear the windshield. Well, this is isn't as easy as it looks, as I stand on the step trying to reach across the windshield. This is where I wish I was taller then five foot two, or at least had Mr. Gadgets retractable arms. This ice isn't coming off, looks easy in the commercials. Wasn't to smart that I didn't put gloves on and my fingers are now feeling every bit as frozen as my windshield. The hollow has a lot to be desired, when it comes to sunshine. Like you can hear it echo, Sunshine who?!!! through out the hills, of course in the summer the shade of the trees are a blessing. Don't get me wrong I am not complaining, but I think I'll be some what prepared next time.
Turning the vehicle around I made it down the driveway, my fingers frozen to the the steering wheel. The sun bright outside of the hollow slowly cleared the window. Major trickery indeed as the below 0 temperatures, were highlighted by the winter sun. The slow thaw caught me laughing as I experienced another day of opportunity, freedom, at its best..

The day after a snow storm, is some kind of treat indeed.
Temperatures plummet and the ice from the summit ,surrounding me.

Unprepared for my first drive after a late winter storm, can’t complain,
about a little frozen rain, in the norther winter it's quite the norm.

Before you know it, I'm driving down the road and the last few
moments seemed like years ago.

Questioning the world and the heartache that I see, what's a little
ice between happiness and me.

Silk and Satin Dreams!

I tried to freeze each moment and hold the
frames of time, but you kept sending

sunshine to melt this heart of mine.

Why

Why did ya go and make me love ya so?
Tamper with my heart and tie it up in a bow.

Why did ya go and make me dance and sing?
Tickle my heart and make my soul scream.

Why did ya go to such extremes, to paint
the hills with your memories.

Why did ya go and make me miss ya so ?
A hole so big, that a forest would grow.

Why did ya go and make me miss ya so?

Cause baby I'm missin you now!

I Do what I must!

I do what I must to be close to you,
as the swallowtail sucking on a
honeysuckle bloom.

Absolution divine, spins the heart

stirs the mind.

Temptation and a little tease,
excitable moments, when your
with me.

I do what I must to be close to you,
as the swallowtail sucking on a honey
suckle bloom.

So natural loves embrace, whimsical
and magical, the weave is laced.

Sweet kisses are such delight, strewn
though the stars and the moon at night.

I do what I must to be close to you,
as the swallowtail sucking on a honey
suckle bloom.

No time in our life do we absorb as much knowledge in such a quick period of time, as when we are children. It is at this time of our life that the groundwork for the future is being set.. Our beliefs mixed with hope and faith. surface through out our life to bring us through all the daily challenges. For me, life began at the age of ten, still a child and yet growing and understanding more about life then ever before. An implacable time, literally, one foot in childhood and the other leaping forward to adulthood. Awkward and yet we are examining our very place in the world. Our own self worth and acceptance. Always on the move, I was acknowledged repeatedly as the new girl in class. It made bonds of friendship even more important, or less important depending on howlong I stayed to grow roots. In many ways insecurity my very shadow and yet a insatiable
desire or a inner struggle for more.

Love is more..... I remember having a conversation with my mother, people don’t see like I do, I said, her response” God made someone for everyone, for every person born there is a partner”. Unfortunately I think we are imprisoned into small places of the mind,that we dare not allow ourselves to expand or explore beyond the backyard of our little world.

A squall of snow may blind the eyes of sight,
but even in a storm, the heart knows what feels right.

Singing> Whispers.......

Silk and satin dreams, places you next to me.
Soothing the heart and setting my soul free.

I can feel your love around me,
delicate your touch, surrounds me.

Silk and satin dreams, places you next to me,
Soothing the heart and setting my soul free.

I can feel your love around me,
delicate your touch surrounds me.

The rush of excitement, came suddenly to a stop,
a powerful explosion , love, thrust wildly,
ignited hot.

The impact of the moment, a force of reckoning,
a mishmash of emotion, conjured up the
mountain of gleam.

Brief the stimuli, the taste of nectar sweet,
the meeting of our lips, the start of every dream.

Wakens me each morning, holds my hand through
the day and when the darkness begins to fall , there
is nothing left to explain.

~~

Stand tall, reach for the sky,
grey trunks with leafless branches,
cover mountains high.

Silence tries to play a silly game,
whispering magic, sounded out
your name.

Over the hills we run and play,
the child in us found a way.

Felt your arms hold me tight,
and love , love , love filled the
blue sky.

Tickling the sprit of my mind,
dance, dance, dance just you and
I.

Stand tall, reach for the sky
grey trunks, with leafless branches
cover mountains high.

Singing>

I never wanna get out of bed in the morning,
I don’t wanna end the dream. I’m walking
under the moonlit sandy beach and your
walking, right next to me.

I don’t wanna open my eyes, I don’t wanna
make you disappear. The embrace of
your love holding me tight, is
something I don’t wanna
share.

Some say they’ve caught me walking,
or dancing in the air. A little bit distant, in a
a far away land, I was given them
a blank stare.

I never wanna get out of bed in the morning,
I don’t wanna end the dream. I’m walking
under the moonlit sandy beach and your
walking, right next to me.
