Hourglass

Where are we going with our distant state of mind?
Do we ignore the signs in front of our eyes?
It is only a matter of time.

Why are we tearing our wondrous world apart?
Why is it hard to see we all need,
Love and an open heart.

Sad how time goes past with sand in an hourglass,
When every moment can last.
Sad how time goes past with sand in an hourglass,
When every moment can last.

Why are we fighting and drawing lines in the sand?
Why is it part of the plan to spill blood on command?
Surrender to peace hand in hand.

Why are we lying and repeating the same mistakes?
When will we change our ways before it's too late?
Together is what it will take.

Sad how time goes past with sand in an hourglass,
When every moment can last.
Sad how time goes past with sand in an hourglass,
When every moment can last.

Flower In the Breeze

I need something to comfort me and mend my mind.
I need someone to come along and save my life.
Then again, I am probably fine.

The first thing I noticed was the colour of your eyes,
Blue as a lotus and calico skies.
Then again, I am probably high.

Take me as I am and love me honestly.
Am I fragile or a flower in the breeze?
A flower in the breeze.

Lost in the moment, we found ourselves a dream.
Out in the open, we were never meant to be.
Then again, we are lovers with a scheme.

Take me as I am and love me honestly.
Am I fragile or a flower in the breeze?
A flower in the breeze.

Haiku - 3

Something will happen
Comfort shall hide in knowing,
Love can never die.

Broad Cove Banks Road

You have to know, my love.
Nothing comes close, my love,
To an East Coast kiss in the summer sun.
You have to know, my love.
We can go home, my love.
It is easily said and done when you feel outrun.

You're all I need.
Darling, share the load and see.
Walk Broad Cove Banks Road with me.

We are home on the hill, my love.
Life is a thrill, my love.
The ocean we see and the air we breathe is enough.
One day they'll be grown up, my love.
We will raise our cups, my love.
We got to the end together, as we said. It was tough.

You're all I need.
Darling, share the load and see.
Walk Broad Cove Banks Road with me.

After all these years, my love.
We faced our fears, my love.
Tired bones take us back to the seed we've sown.
All said and done, my love.
Dead and gone, my love.
Our legacy in their memory will roam.

Though the roads can change,
You and I know the way.
Close the map. Our hearts will guide us back.

You're all I need.
Darling, share the load and see.
Walk Broad Cove Banks Road with me.
