Angel

Angel, Angel
Oh how you are so beautiful!
Your wings are feathered
Your gown is white
So clean and clear
And pure your white
A halo of glimmering gold
Is hanging above your curled hair
Your face is glass reflecting the sea
So shine and wave
And smile oh Sea
Flowers and beauty
Could not be better
Than the boy in the glowing gown
My angel, my reprieve

Angel, Angel
Oh how you are so kind!
You give thanks
Even where none is needed
Appoligize all the time
For what? I don't know
Your personality shines
So bright and glowing
And light your shine
You helped me up
When I was down
I think you just saved me
My soul is free
So thank you much
My angel, my safety

How Come You Need to Fall When You're In Love?

How come you need to fall when you're in love?
Can't you float or fly instead?

How come love needs to hurt you?
Can't it hold you with gentle arms?

How come boys are unreliable?
Can't they stay loyal and true?

How come girls can't see what boys do for them?
Can't they be grateful for who they have?

How come people change their minds so fast?
Can't they stay with their love forever?

How come your stomach hurts when your love has left?
Can't lost love be more like roses?

How come love has to be so complicated?
Can't it be easy?

How come you need to fall when you're in love?
I want to fly.

My Friend

I walk inside to see you sitting there.
Your tail begins to flick from side to side.
And nothing can break your expectant stare,
A gaze from which a mouse would want to hide.
But I begin to run to you and hold
Your soft and furry body to my chest
And from my cheek your whiskers brush the cold.
The  sun does not compare; you warm me best.
And when, too soon, it's time to say goodbye,
You follow as I step up to the door.
A single tear suspended in your eye,
Your body slumps in sorrow on the floor.
I stretch my hand to stroke your silky fur,
And one last time I feel your rumbling purr.

Pictures

Pictures show the love we felt
We see through the haze of what has been
We see John's old back-scratcher
The one he kept on that dusty old shelf
There's Sue's delicious apple pie
We smell the aroma once more
Little Tim is on the tractor
Look at his pudgy hands wave
Across the yard's a tire swing
It sways softly in the breeze
There's Aunt May's flower bed
She hated when we played gold miners
Charlie's got cake smeared on his face
That was his 3rd birthday
Lilly's beautiful face is smiling here
Next to strapping Bill, her husband
Dill's wearing a dark gray suit in this one
Preparing to meet his girlfriend
Silly Jimmy is blushing here
He got Mom's pudding on his jacket
Look there, it's me
I was so young and carefree
How did that sweet little voice
Turn into a grown-up like me?

Child's Lullaby

The stars in the sky
Pray to the heavens
Bright lights in the sky
Swirling mass of beauty
Raining down on earth
Bringing peace and joy
Pray to the stars

Wrapped in My Arms

The storm has come
It strikes and thunders and roars
I'll hold you safe in my arms.

Your body is cold
It shakes and shivers and fears
You're still safe in my arms.

The rain arrives
It pours and trickles and splats
I'll never let you go.

The storm passes
You drift and cuddle and sleep
You'll always be in my arms.

Free

In my heart, there is a bird
An eagle, a falcon that soars
She's wild and strong,
And nothing can tame her

Yet, hold out the seed
In your hopeful palm
She'll live with a foot in two worlds
Returning to your hand at dawn
Escaping to the air at night

This seed a treasure forbidden
That gives her guilty pleasure
A haven and safety and rest
No longer does she hunt to survive

Each time she returns, you cage her
In hopes that one day she will never leave
Each day she stays longer
Yet her heart grows more frightened

In it she sees the wild and trees
The air, the sky, the clouds
She cannot stay where her heart is not
She loves you, but do you love her?

It's the prime of her life
Her wings long to stretch
Soar and hunt again
Truly her heart is Wild, but Tame is claiming it

Set her free while you can
Each day that passes by
It poisons her thoughts and weighs her down
So she cannot take flight

Some day she will be tame
Is that what you want?
Her spirit will no longer be free
The light in her eyes will fade

Do not cry to many tears
Some day she may return
When the wild has finally burst from her chest
She'll love you again, as she always has
For the moment, let her free

Seasons Are Blue

Spring
The grass is green
The sun is yellow
The flowers are orange and pink and purple
The sky is blue

Summer
The leaves are green
The apples are red
Ice cream is brown and peach and white
The sky is still blue

Autumn
The ground is soft
The trees are solid
The leaves are crisp and crunchy and flat
The sky is blue

Winter
The trees are bare
The air is frosty
The snow is fluffy and cold and wet
The sky is still blue

The sky is blue
The ocean is blue
The eath is topaz and emerald and gold
The sky is still blue

The World's Toll

I look outside, the sky is gray
I wish that you were here today.
The wind is cold, the trees are bare
I breathe in dank and heavy air.

I miss you dear, your gentle touch
You helped me up and now as such:
The world is silent, there is no sound
Evil and darkness now abound.

I miss your warmth, your soft caress
The way you bring me happiness.
I miss your songs, your lovely voice
You never even had a choice.

The world is cruel, it took its toll
Where my heart was, there's now a hole.
I know you're happy, I hear your tune
I know that I will see you soon.

I miss you Aunt D, I love you forever.
-Sky

Darkness Vs. Lightness

Darkness
I knew
I felt
I was

Lightness
I know
I feel
I am

Ray of Light

I could see nothing but dark, the walls pressed in, the air was tight
The pain was dull and ached, no relieving and all shadows
I knew nothing, I saw nothing
I was nothing
Nothing in the world but dark

Now I can see something of light, the strength flows in, the warmth is sure
The joy is bright and clear, no repressing and all good
I know something, I see something
I am something
Something in the world called light
