November 22, 1997


A light among the wayward stars
Heaven in their midst
Through chance fate makes her dark plans known
So fortune plays the tryst

A passing soul
Within the dark
With briefest joy bestowed
That lifts my heart to skyward height
Removed from narrow road

Within the sunset garden
Whilst skies adorn with gold
When flowers bloom in paradise
I'll place them on your soul

Liquid eyes sweetened brown
A tender smile romanced
That melts my heart within its ice
And holds me well entranced

At ringing thought illusion sought
Running from the bell
And slide away with naught to say
A path that's trodden well

Morning sleep breaks to dawn
Awake only to dream
Of tender touch to slip away
And with it all I've seen

Chimera rent my vision spent
All fancies do depart
These words have cried from deep inside
Have risen from the heart
