Somewhere In Slumber

 

The moon settles and shines down it's light.

Opening a beauty that magnetizes the night.

Capturing the silence in it's usual way.

Sending a crispness in the air that I lay.

 

Showing the stars as a cloud passes by.

Raising a curtain for the audience it seems.

Just to give way to the changes that come.

Deep in the night ,

So that  I may see sweet dreams.

The Promise

 

 

Each day I pray that I'll know the way.

The one in which you'll lead me today.

 

Clear my vision and help me to see,

The path that I've taken is the one for me.

 

Guided by faith, so that I may not fall,

But if I slip, Lord hear my call.

 

Hold out your hand and keep me strong.

In the face of temptation that will lead me wrong.

 

Open my ears so that I may hear.

The words you speak which are so dear.

 

The messge will go as far as I see.

This is my promise to you from me.

 

Tripe 5

(Moment Between the Clouds and the Rain)

 

The universal water tank of love

rises out of collective subconscious.

Monolithic good holding evil in stasis

but really love is just an oasis

that rises like a mirage up out of our dreams

sanctuary along your desert journey it seems

through the eternal form of streams

they come to us in our dreams

an oasis where a man and a woman can gain

the sweet passing moment between the clouds and the rain.

Sometimes when you lie in your lover’s arms

when love glows sweet and the very sky it does charm

droplets mist down and glisten her pain

the moment between the clouds and the rain.

Can you hear me as I speak through your mind? Can you feel me as I touch you

through your soul. Can you breathe as I breathe.

Can you see as I touch your heart. Can you hold me when we’re apart.

 I can touch you, I can see, I will love you forever for all eternity. When I look into your eyes, I feel it all over again. From the first moment you held my hand. You have all this passion that’s been locked away behind a door, but now I have the key, the key to your world. I hold it close to me, close to my heart, for our love is the strongest bond; no one can break that apart. I love you unconditionally, I love you deeply and true, I love you minute by minute and when the sky isn’t blue.

 You are my light, you are my moon, and you are everything to me and more. You are the man that I love, and I want to tell the world.

Memorable moments

so many ways to say it

 

My eyes are closed but I still see

what I have locked in memory.

Things that I had thought were gone

in my mind they’re living on.

 

And looking back in there again

to all the places I have been.

I see friends I used to know

inside that world of long ago.

 

All the games we used to play

are coming back from yesterday.

And I can see in my mind

all the fun we left behind.

 

There upon our youthful path

that I’ve sealed up in photograph.

And once again I can see

that day of then inside of me.

 

With eyes still closed and open mind

to all the things I left behind.

I let me wander ore and ore

to the things that are no more

 

The good old days

 

I sure do love to reminisce

about the good old days

At least that’s how they seem to me

in so many different ways.

 

Now I’m not running down today

I wouldn’t do that God forbid.

But I sure do love to wander back

to when I was a kid.

 

And think of all the many things

we used to do back when.

People knew you by your name

and you got along with kin.

 

Back when all the neighbors

were just as poor as you.

And folk did all they could

for everyone they knew.

 

When children would obey

what their parents said.

And say their prayers at night

before they went to bed.

 

Where parents stilled believed

that there was a God.

And the way to spoil a child

was to spare the rod.

 

Where people had respect

for other people’s stuff.

And shared their own with others

when they didn’t have enough.

 

When what your parents said

was the law that you lived by.

And you went ahead and did it

without ever asking why.

 

Now I know our world today

has changed in many ways.

But I still love to reminisce

about the good old days!
