Falling Once Again
I've never fallen out of love,
Though I've fallen out of favor,
I've never lost a smile or touch,
Each memory I savor.
Each hand I've held, each kiss I've . . .

Quite unexpectedly,
I'd only turned along the way
As someone spoke to me;
With thoughts aligned for witty quip
I walked back toward the call

We met across the faceless miles, amidst the massive night,
The voices of our fingertips bespoke each other’s light.
We touched and held the words we sent, our interest sparked to see
That feelings . . .

And then,
I turn around and search again.

Standing on a world of questions, looking toward a sky of answers, we reach up for knowledge, trying to grasp the contentment there, not realizing that the sky is made of air and has been in our hands . . .

That pain in life we all have had,
that moment of great loss,
A feeling felt that can't be cured,
a line we cannot cross.
It lies within as we would have

At the Age of Three
In the Faraway Land of Make Believe
(That I keep right next to me,)
Are Happy Friends and Magic Things
That only I can see;
I can find the things I want
With a simple nod of my . . .

Birthdays

I'm sure you will agree,
Caught as we are within each year's

In sudden rush of flaming light,
Behold! The Firebird's . . .

and never love again,
Than pass my life not knowing love,
and thus to live in vain. . . .

On wintercold hardened ground
How quickly they run!
Soft, quiet, white flakes
Gentle drift to blanket earth
...frozen air petals
Wind's hand sweeps . . .

The Heart of a Family
Past, present, future, always, a light that beams and glows,
Radiates from loving kinship as child is born and grows;
A torch that's held and handed down from heart . . .

I stand on the heights of a mountain
I view the depths of the sea
I hold the world in the palm of my hand
When your eyes are looking at me;
I flush with the heat of desire
I chill in the strength . . .

Blows soft upon my day
Whenever your smile touches me
As I pass on by your way;
I swim an effervescent sea,
My heartbeat's heated churn,
When I am in the . . .
