Perfection

IMHO, pink hydrangea is perfect. Right up there with a red rose in bloom.

Believe in Yourself

My hero told me today
Believe in yourself

For there is only one of you
And know that you can do
The things you want to do

So I heed his advice
And know that I can do
Anything I want to do

Church Bells

Church bells in the city
Ring out so clear
Sounding out loud
Declaring to all the world
That Friday night
Upon us, is here

As sure as the sun will rise
Days will turn to night
Until we are faced
With the comfort and grace
Of church bells chiming
In the city, once more

Insomnia

Night escapes
Like water slipping through my fingers
Every second drawing morning closer
And pushing time away and yet
I cannot sleep for my mind
Is not at rest

Chained

image

Fighting feelings
Battles betrayed
Romancing Romeo
Wish he had stayed

Fingers twitching
Itching to write
Hand stays chained
He was never my knight

Song of Heaven

image

From depths of despair
My heart cries out

When all is hopeless
I find my hope

My tears are dried
My joy returns

Songs of praise
Sound loud and true

I sink to my knees
My Lord, my God –

I Love Thee!

Flutter my Butterflies

Can you admire me so gently
As to flutter my butterflies
Can you kiss me so softly
As to take my breath away
Can you touch me with finesse

So that I open up
And invite you
Inside my fire
To draw you in
And surround you
With all of my love?

Crying Out

Dreams and tears
Visions and valleys
Words and thoughts
Passions and desires
Sorrow and pleasure
Blot the pages of my life
As the well of my tears
Merge them all into one
And still the cry of my heart
The call of my soul cries out
My soul cries out to be heard

Kookaburra

Kookaburra, kookaburra
What do you say to me?

In the morning, dark and cold
You cackle your song at me

Out of slumber, out of sleep
You raise your voice at me

Laughing, mocking while I wake
Wrenching me from my dreams
