Listened to the Song

I took to the night
and listened to the song
of the nightingale
and the tree frogs.

The sky was clouded as
the rain was falling down
a wet summer evening
filled with many a sound.

My heart started racing and
my soul reached out to you
as I danced in the rain and
dreamed of loving you.

I took to the night
and listened to the song
of the nightingale
and the tree frogs.

Chapters of Life

The chapters of life are the stepping stones

 that lead us don the path of tomorrow.

Dreams are a way the subconscious deals with what our conscious minds cannot. I sometimes have the most vivid dreams, as if I awaken from them and I am not sure whether it was dream that  I finished my work for the day or that I went about dreaming chores. I laughed as I thought how unexciting a dream could be if all I did was dream what I do all day long. But dreams are never the same and each reveals as I see it something we missed in our waking lives.

Sometimes dreams bring peace and occasionally bring answers but ultimately they reveal the inner workings of the subconscious.

I realized early on that I could direct a dream by controlling my last thought before I go to sleep. Sometimes I would do it with music and other times by a meditation of sort and occasionally by cleansing the negative from my mind so that only the positive remained. In one dream I can recall a complete conversation and others times the dream is not so vivid and only one aspect of it stands out. I always felt when we slept it was like turning off the mind but I have found that through the dreams the mind doesn't sleep at all.

 

If my last thoughts are of you,

may I lay all night within your arms.

Feel the beat of your heart and listen

as each beat becomes a song.

 

If my last thoughts are of you,

may our lips meet once more in kiss.

Feel the comfort of knowing

our love is so ever strong.

..to you.

When the sun no longer shines
and gray skies is all you'll find,
when the rain is falling down
my thoughts turn to you.

When the day is through and
we say goodbye to the blue,
when the night comes on
I look for you in my dreams.

I fiercely battled time for
playing games with my mind,
my introduction to you
that is a distance away.

I gaze out the window
through teary eyes,
thinking of all the years
without you by my side.

As I  quickly turned away
I let the dreams have their way,
bringing you magically to me
here in my arms.

The song of my heart,
melodic sounds from a far,
I send my love to you,
like whispers in the wind.

Souls are Free

This is my garden,
with flowers in bloom,
various shades in
every color and hue.

You are invited
to share with me
my sweet paradise
where souls are free.

This is my garden,
with flowers in bloom,
song bird singing
and me and you.

..after you.

I named my pillow after you and
I hold it tight all the night through.
It is where my dreams begin and
inevitably where my dreams end.

Holding you so ever close
as my imagination rolls on in.
Tucking you in my arms and
dancing in a close knit spin.

Each moment a magical delight
a fairytale untold unlocks the night.
 I hold my pillow close to my heart
as I whisper your name it brings
a light of love to the dark.

I named my pillow after you and
I hold it tight all the night through,
It is where y dreams begin and
inevitably where my dreams end.

and whisper your name.

Smiles of the Heart

If one could sculpt a heart,
how beautiful it would be
filled with happiness and
your sweet memory.

Smiles of the heart
for everyone to see,
a joyous reminder of
what you mean to me.
~

So silent the moment,
lost in place and time,
all that can be seen
is the tear drop falling
from my eye.

Blurred vision,
and still I can see
beyond the mountains
your heart is reaching out
tome.

~

Through the tears,
a smile of the heart
reaches out to you
from a far.


~

Reach out to me,
I'm reaching out to you,
our souls merged together
like our hearts united
through a dream.

Reach out to me,
I'm reaching out to you,
feel my heart beating,
each beat contains my
love for you.

Window

Right outside my window,
the wild roses cascade
and their leaves dance in
the wind creating a motion
filled display.

The sky is over cast,
the sun hidden from view
and though darkness surrounds,
your love shines on through.

The view seems restricted
as if the world is small,
but with you nothing matters
as your love is my all.

I'll Take You With Me

I'll take you with me,
wherever I may go,
you'll be my sunshine
when the rain fails to
slow.

I'll keep you in my heart,
as close as one can be,
you'll be here with me
for all eternity.

I'll take you with me,
wherever I may go,
you'll be the wind
that through my heart
blows.

I'll keep you in my heart,
as close as one can be,
you'll be my smile and
all of my dreams.

I'll take you with me,
wherever I may go,
from spring time
through the winter snow.

I'll keep you in my heart
as close as one can be,
safely tucked away for
that moment of need.

I'll take you with me ,
wherever I may go,
I'm holding on tight and
I'll never let go.

~

Little bit of sunshine
and a little bit of rain,
haunts this heart of mine,
that it has never been the
same.

Little bit of sunshine
and a little bit of rain
and like a flower growing
your love blooms within
each day.
