A small bird singing-
and why does it rejoice so?
It must have found love.

Thinking about life;
without love, it is nothing
but a plotless tale.

The night is quiet.
A silent breeze brushes past;
it whispers your name.

Laughing and smiling
with the whole world to conquer
and your hand to hold.

You could say
I'm just a dreamer,
dreaming of a home.
I've traveled
miles and miles to reach
a destination unknown.

My feet are worn,
I hunger and thirst,
but still I venture forth,
hoping to find
a new world, alive,
as I journey to the north.

I have not seen
the place I seek,
but when I arive, I'll know,
but for now,
I'm wandering, wandering, wandering,
innumerable miles to go.

A blanket of fog
atop a sea of trees,
the morning mist
lies still, in peace.

The warm glow
of the sunrise
slowly opens
my waking eyes.

In the dawn of the day,
the world awakes
and life resumes;
new breath, it takes.

As I arise,
and my slumber is through,
I always, always
think of you.

When I lay still,
in the silence,
I hear it;
It echoes in my head;
That melody
no one else hears
comes to life again.

It grows and it fades
with the movements
of the dancers that leap
in my brain,
and when their act is through,
the silence takes over again.

But the quiet
doesn't last long,
and I start to hear
a new song.

It flows and it draws and it colors
until the portrait has gone,
and as the last note is strung,
though there are more songs to be sung,
the beauty has put me at rest,
and for now, the music is done.

Since I was a small child, my mind has constantly been filled with music. I hear elaborate symphonies. I hear beautiful, crystal clear melodies. I hear angelic harmonies. They give me reason to live; I pray that they never leave.
