In the end
it's not going to matter
how many breaths you took,
But how many moments took your breath away!

Hearts are wild creatures,
that's why our ribs are like cages.

My life is but a leaf atop an ocean flowing bliss,
on waves of firm conclusions built on reasons that I miss
I take each day as it does come in mystic falling beams
to fill the many corners of my multicolored dreams

Up and down in freedom form the open waters dance,
smooth the real transition to the tremors of romance
Vast the far horizons come to choose what they may show,
as I rest so peaceful within southern breezes flow

Timeless counted visions that do soar about my mind,
pictures painted perfect of the wisdom I might find
Stories told that hold the truth in words another writes,
entertainment spawned of many days and many nights

Now I float upon these waves to far off distance shores,
to hold the one of wondrous grace my heart it does adore
I shall come a calling on the eve of loving ways,
to know in calculation we have reached those endless days

Adrift amongst the numbers of the minutes that we see,
the tide shall come a waning as the moon brings you to me
Beneath these stars of evermore which brightly shine above,
sending forth the message of a true undying love

Lift me now my angel from this aqua blue marine,
gently for to cradle so that I might hear you breathe
Of this golden fantasy I come to see it’s true,
this love that I’ve been waiting for lies in the heart of you

So here along the foaming frame, an outline of the beach,
to know time is the student of the hours that we teach
I spend my life in harmony beneath blue skies above
*and share my world with you upon an endless sea of love

In my darkest days, I held you beneath my warmth.
You indulged me with your feverish hunger.
You embraced me with your piercing emotions.
You were immune to my changeable disease.

I came to a realization that you were my muse,
the best rainbow I received……….

You told me that I was part of your soul.
To me you’re the fuel to my rusty engine,
The energy to my thirsty being,
And the light of my darkened soul.

I worry about our future
can we withstand the test of time
we consistently show our arrogance by letting history repeat itself.
why do we always think we can do "it" better. I wish instead of everyone wanting change but doing nothing we could gather our strength and empower our nation to create the change that is so necessary to our very existence. We were once considered the strongest most revered in the world. Now we are weak and laughed at.  If we sit and do nothing we will have given up and cast our fate in the hands of others

I wait alone with baited breath for the return of my one true love.
I wait in the darkness hoping he will come to me and bathe me In his warm glow.
I wait for him to caress me with his words , telling me I am his world.
I wait in anticipation for his touch that scorches my skin in his wake.
I wait in darkness. Alone.
I wait.......
