Premium Member Where Your Eyes Shine I Want To Lie Down
where crystals gleam 
i want to lie

where the scented lily opens
reveals its stamen
tender as babies breath

as unavoidable as our sun's and moon's provocative union 
as desirable as a cooling whisper on a hot humid day
as necessary as the blistering heat
a dream yet to be dreamt

in...

Shine
Shine as a source of endless light
whose rainbows of colour deter the night
where daydreams are gentle as doves in flight
and sleep the sleep of angels

Shine like a shower of soft moonbeams
Inhabit the sea of a thousand dreams
where laughter and love are timeless themes
and sleep the...

To Darren - Some Stars Shine Brighter
SOME STARS SHINE BRIGHTER

Some stars shine brighter 
Some waves crash stronger
Some winds blow warmer
Some days are lovelier

Some friendships are eternal...

During our lives we meet a lot of people
But some will conquer a special place in our hearts
They'll be the ones for whom
We'll fight a little...

Shine Forth His Light
Shine forth His light, dispel the night!
Spread love that's true, let hope glow bright,
May your words be seasoned with grace!
Looking up to Christ, run your race,
Unfurl His undying love's might!

Light your candle’s love infinite,
Reflect the Son, good deeds highlight,
May others through you God embrace,
 ...

A glimpse of a lavish dawn graced with hail,
Thorn sparkles and dewdrops on the rose wane.
Honey bees and robin-raptured boughs wail,
Calling me young and pale with a spring strain.

But I grasp...

Premium Member Your Time To Shine
What will you do when it’s your time to shine?
Do you have all your words written down in your mind?
Have you planned for the day when they call on your name?
To lift up a soul and help hide someone’s shame?

Is it easy for you to...

Premium Member Stars Light, They Shine Bright
Glowing gems that dress the night,
I yearn to know your brightness art
blinking quick, blinking slow
my running thoughts you make them go...

From arid desert to distant worlds,
stars white shimmer a wordless speech:
their wink--a gift of hope to travelers
who dare tread the darkest steep.

In my arms, I...

My Time To Shine
Running barefoot through the open field
No worries, enjoying what the day will yield
Free spirit, given free reign to roam the town
Sun up to sun down, laughter all around

Dreading Mom's dinner bell, such a sad sound
Knowing the day was over and we had to settle down
Mom...

Until They Shine
Wading through fragmented thoughts
Searching for one last poetic line
To slip around a shattered heart
Then shaped into a perfect bow
Pulsating softly like guitar strings
As they begin to play real slow
Replacing old queasy emotions
With melodic breezes that flow
Through the canyons of mind
Once found in a bottle of...

The Sun Will Soon Shine Again
Do not drown in your sorrow,
This dark storm is not the end,
Look forward to tomorrow,
This cloud too shall pass, my friend;

It's difficult, I agree,
To stop thinking of the past,
Those memories won't just flee,
Give it some time, not so fast;

Hold on to the True Anchor,
The sun...

Premium Member Shine
At times when the night glows so dark
And dawning too rises clouding the arc
Be the street lamp ceaselessly bright
Be the candle with halo of angelic light

When travails of life flood teary eyes
And forlorn hearts pulse in sullen cries
Be the echo of solace from hills divine
Be...

Premium Member You Are Who You Are, Let It Shine
My dear friend, the flaws that you think you have, no one else sees.
It’s what’s on the inside that truly projects who you are.
They only see you for the person who you want to be.
Let that person shine through like the brightest of all stars....

Premium Member When Sunset and Stars Shine on Sacred Ground a collaboration with Susan Ashley
My love, let us live this paradisal evening
dressed in wispy clouds of red
and tailored in strips of orange embellishing the horizon
where shades and shadows embrace your face
as the last glimmer of daylight falls
leaving a raptured sky of coral pink and red
enhancing your beauty in the...

Moon To My Stars
Everyone wants to be the sun
All I need is that one person 
who wants to be the ambient glow 
to my twinkling starlight so 
in the darkest of nights we can 
shine together stealing the 
night skies back with our brilliance...
