THE POEM
WITH EACH BEAT OF MY HEART DO I PRAISE HIM
FOR I ONLY LIVE BY THE GRACE WHICH HE GIVES
MY SOUL IS MY HEART OF WHICH HE IS A PART
THE POETIC LOVE SONG TO WHICH I BELONG
THE ETERNAL HEARTBEAT WHICH SOUNDS ME COMPLETE
MY LORD AND MY GOD
THE BREATH OF MY LIFE IS THE SPIRIT OF HIM
FOR EVEN IN DEATH WILL I BE BORN IN HIS BREATH
THE ENDLESS HORIZON UPON WHICH I AM BEGUN
THE RYTHMN OF MY RHYME WHICH WILL OUTLAST ALL TIME
IN HIM WILL I BE A VERSE ETERNALLY
MY LORD AND MY GOD
IN THE VEIN OF MY LINES IS THE BODY OF HIM
THE LAND OF MY VERSE UPON WHICH I REHEARSE
THE HOUSE WHICH I DWELL SO POETICALLY WELL
IN GENTLE DROPS SHED IN EACH WORD WHICH IS BLED
THE HEART OF MY HOME IN THE BLOOD OF THE POEM
MY LORD AND MY GOD
THE LIGHT OF MY SOUL IS THE LOVE OF HIM
THE PATH OF MY WAY IS THE SON OF EACH DAY
HIS WORD WHICH I BREATHE WHICH WILL NEVER LEAVE
THE BREATH OF MY PEN ALWAYS REBORN AGAIN
FOREVER AND ALWAYS PAST ALL OF MY DAYS
MY LORD AND MY GOD
COME WHISPER MY WORD IN PRAISE OF HIM
BLESS THE HEART SOUND IN SWEET POETRY FOUND
GLORIFY THE SOUL BY WHICH I AM REBORN AS WHOLE
THE SPIRIT OF HIM IS WHERE PROSE DOES BEGIN
IN ALL THAT I KNOW IN THAT SWEET OVERFLOW
MY LORD AND MY GOD.
HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Lost Among Roses
Lost among roses I still would find You
Across a forever plain
Though the bloom of each day might fade away
The essence of You will remain
Add a forest of leaves to cover the land
In a blanket which drifts on the air
But as the seasons we know may come and go
Your presence will always be there
With the stars of the heavens far overhead
In awe of how many there are
But for all there is to see and all there could be
I will still come to your star
Plus the sands of the oceans along every shore
The horizon between land and sea
There each grain of sand formed by the wave's hand
Yet You are the one that I see
For all of the world and the goodness there in
Each dream and each wish to come true
Though time may forget and the seasons will set
Lost among roses I still would know You.
HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
three little words
three little words they kill me with
to make me wonder why
the special way that they can say
the perfect little lie
they trust to give a special place
something which is not there
to make you smile for just awhile
but they really do not care
sweet promises filled with charm
a warm and comfort zone
but things are done before they are begun
and I am left alone
three little words they kill me with
they don't even have to try
even when they leave I still believe
the perfect little lie
HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Untouchable Dreams
Untouchable dreams reach out holding me,
Like some mystery beyond my reality;
Of the things that I see but will now not ever be;
In untouchable dreams now holding me.
For in my dreams there You are, so close but so far
My wished upon Star...........
A stranger called You
The One I never knew
Still in those dreams holding me.
There in my heart I am here drawn unto You,
But no matter what I might do the dream never comes true;
Now without any clue in wishes so few;
In my heart I am drawn unto You.
Oh let me come home for without You I am so lost and alone
The cast away stone.........
Sinking so low
Now so far below
Still I am here drawn unto You.
You threw me away to the place I now go,
I love You so, but how much You will never know;
Held in that dream bow in the heart of deep woe;
Thrown to the place now that I go.
For all I would share, You never were there
My Heart unaware ........
The unfinished day
Which will not go away
Still in the place that I go.
If dreams were the love that could show me the way,
The poetic light ray of my path here today;
How they would all betray, but what would I say;
Of a dream that could show me the way.
Words now washed in tears of untouchable dreams once so clear
My Dream so dear.........
Of all that should of been
My Love of the never not when
Still, if dreams could just show the way.
HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
THE TOUCH OF YOUR LOVE
IN THE TOUCH OF YOUR LOVE YOU FILL MY CUP
AS I POUR MYSELF UNTO YOU
WITH JOYS TO OVERFLOW IN ALL THAT I KNOW
MY LOVE, I TRULY LOVE YOU
FOR YOU ARE THE STARS WHICH FILL MY NIGHT SKY
EVERYONE I WISH UPON YOU
MY WIFE YOU GIVE SO MUCH MORE ONLY YOU I ADORE
MY LOVE, I SWEETLY LOVE YOU
FOR YOU ARE THE SUN UPON MY BODY'S HORIZON
MY DAWN IS THE DAYSPRING OF YOU
IN THE HEART OF MY SOUL ONLY YOU MAKE ME WHOLE
MY LOVE, I COMPLETELY LOVE YOU
IN ALL OF MY NEEDS YOU ARE WHO I WANT
MY DESIRE IS TO BE ONE WITH YOU
YOU FILL MY HEART UP WITH THE LOVE OF YOUR CUP
MY LOVE, I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU.
HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
The Breath of the Night
The Breath of the Night is the starlight;
And it longs to be touched by the dawn,
There far above,
By the light of;
All in the breath of Your love.
Risen so bright in the starlight,
In the caress of the wind's gentleness;
All in Your touch;
So very much,
All in the light of Your love.
Filling my sight with that sparkling starlight;
Of all that can be in all that I see,
In patterned skies;
Through Your gentle eyes,
All in the vision of Your love.
Touching me right at the heart of starlight;
The joy of my Soul making me whole,
To breathe of You deep;
In dreams of sweet sleep,
All in the touch of Your love.
Drawn with all of my might the strength of that starlight;
The wish of a gazed upon star in all that You are,
Of all things begun;
In this new creation,
All in the strength of Your love.
In all of God's nights there is Your starlight;
Shimmering crystal clear in You being here,
In visions come true;
And always dawning new.........
All in the breath of Your love.
Just Another Wasted Life
Once Upon Always
