Stare

I looked at your face-
Staring google eyed over you-
Through time I do still

Simple beauties of this life-
You are simply beautiful

More Than

Who can love me
More than thee

More than fish
Love the sea

More than desert
Clings to sand

More than glove
Fits to hand

Who can love thee
More than I

More than birds
Love the sky

More than forest
Needs a tree

More than mirrors
Seek imagery

Who can love
Thee or me

There shall no one else
Ever be

Will This Be The Day?

Will this be the day
You call me home
To be up there with You

Will this be the day
I see Your face
To begin eternal life that's true

Will this be the day
You ask of me
What have I done with life

How have I lived
How have I loved
Did I bring peace
Or did I cause strife

Will this be the day
That I realize
Just who my life was lived for

Did I only seek
To please myself
Or serve others in love

Will this be the day
I bow my head
In shame and agony

Or look at You in triumph
Having run the race
You set for me

Well this is the day
That You have made
And filled with opportunities

Chances to live, love and give
To follow the example
You've set for me

And in that choice
There is an end
A goal to be pursued

That in each day
I live my life
I become more and more like You

Will this be the day
You call me home
And if so who will You see

I Need You

I need the touch of your hand
It is the food that nourishes me

I need the kiss of your lips
It is the air I breathe

I need the smile on your face
It is the water that quenches my thirst

I need the hug of your arms
It is what makes me safe

I need you
You make me complete

From Life To Death

When I pass from life to death
I want to have a baby there

A screaming baby
Screaming so loud you'd think I would awake

But I won't
I shouldn't want to

I would want to pass over
From here to there

From this to that
To that life after death

And I want to have a baby there
A screaming baby

Screaming the sounds of joy
Screaming the sounds of happiness

Screaming the sounds of peace
Screaming the sounds of new life

Hailing my departure
Screaming into the everafter

Announcing my arrival
From death into life

My Heart

My heart
Shall sing
In such delight

When again
My eyes
Have you in sight

My arms
Confused
Without a chore

Long to
Hold you
Close once more

So tarry
None too long
From me

My soul
It hungers
And longs for thee

What My Mother Means To Me

What does my mother mean to me
She's my life, the air I breathe

What does my mother mean to me
She's my peace and serenity

What does my mother mean to me
She's my laughter and comedy

What does my mother mean to me
She's the root that grows my tree

What does my mother mean to me
She's is the key that sets me free

What does my mother mean to me
She's the light that inspires me

What does my mother mean to me
She's the rock that anchors me

What does my mother mean to me
She's the one and only, Annie B


Love you dearly,
Your Baby Boy

MORNING DEW

The morning dew
In golden hues
Proclaims to all
The day's good news

The honey bee
Does surely see
The joy this day
Has brought to me

The fragrant flower
Does show its power
As its petals stretch forth
To view the hour

The hummingbird dances
As the sky turns blue
The cool breezes blow
And daffodils twinkle in the morning dew

You Are

You are my passion.
Your heart and mine were intertwined.
Your soul and mine were united.
Your love inflammed me.
Your body, so smooth and so soft, was the fountain of my dreams.
I long to drink from it.
Even now, I thirst for you.

Love Me

Love me
Without a reason

Love me
For all seasons

Love me
In an instant

Love me
And be persistent

Love me
Under pressure

Love me
Beyond measure

Love me
In the morning light

Love me
In the dead of night

Love me
In all you do

Love me
As I love you too

Do You Know?


Do you know
How much I love you

Can you tell me
I can't say

It is too high
For me to measure
And too heavy
For me to weigh

It is too long
For me to walk its length
To try
Would take all day

It is so wide
I'll never get around it
And as deep
As the oceans lay

To measure
The love
I have for you
Is a job that
Can't be done

But I can
Tell you the space for whom
I have reserved such love
That number
Is certainly ONE
