Oceans of the Blue

The oceans of the world my dear,
Are filled with lovers' salty tears;
For when they are so far apart,
More tears flow from all loving hearts.

Yet all tears aren't from lonely hearts,
Some are of joy they do impart;
They flow from me, they flow from you,
They flow into the oceans blue.

And as they flow onto the deep,
They give the whales their song so sweet;
They sing of love, they sing the blues,
They fill us with great joy in tune.

And as the whales sound in the deep,
Their song does echo in relief;
To place the love found in our hearts,
And give us strength while we're apart.

The Gingerbreadman

A gingerbread man came to your door
He jumped right through and danced on the floor,
Then suddenly he whirled about
Raised his arms and began to shout,
In lyrical voice he did rant and rave
Professing love that he did crave,
Then passed a ginger little kiss 
That floated to your waiting lips,
Smack once, smack twice, your tongue rolled 'round
His essence in your hunger found,
To place upon your face a smile
Twas a tasty cookie after while.

You Are My World

I'm a celestial body that orbits your soul,
I live through the night causing passion to flow,
Together we dance lightly to glide,
In turn you're the earth, I'm your moon in full stride.

Spiders In the Crack (Co-Author Chris Makey)

Echoes in the laughter
Reverberating strange
Devious enrapture
Entangled souls are drained
All eulogies are intoned 
Telling how they were so brave
To speak of webbed seduction 
That dragged them to their graves
They're left but skin-n-bone now
Skin-n-bone there all remains
And on the winds they're screaming
In hollow cheeked dismay
Beguild souls are damned
To the keep of a lost domain
A temptress or the devil 
Who spins this web again.

Starbursts

I looked up to the moon this eve,
And in my heart I did receive;
A miracle, a sweet surprise,
Your love on moonbeams came alive.

Then as the stars danced to burst,
Sweet kisses fell onto the earth;
I gathered every one to save,
And placed them in my heart to stay.

Now when I look up to night skies,
The moon, the stars reflect your eyes;
They fill my heart with love so deep,
I burst with stardust ever sweet.

In Winter's Cold

As blizzards rage through all the night,
And morning skies do come to light;
I see the pale of blues and greys,
Reflecting through all memory's haze.

And o'er the miles that we're apart,
Your warmth gives direction to my heart;
For I do brave the driven snows,
Against all bitter winter's cold.

Your love does pave a lighted path,
To guide me from this frozen grasp;
And though storm squalls twist 'n' scream,
Your heart shines through like laser-beams.

I'll travel high, I'll travel low,
I'll trudge through winter's deepest snows;
And when I come I'll bear a gift,
My love to make your spirit lift.

Guardian of Your Dreams

Upon a moonbeam I do come
To watch you as you sleep
I kiss your eyes with stardust light
To bring the sweetest dreams.
You dance and spin then take to flight
Under a moonlit night
You dance a dance with fireflies
Then hypnotize the stars.
You build great castles in the sand
Then breathe new life to waves
They crash about with passion's song
Then pound them to their graves.
And all along I stand close by
To guard with all my strength
For in your eyes I see the stars
And dream to always be.
