Song of the River

Trickle, trickle,
woooosh, woooosh,
Splish splash,
Shhhhhhhh, shhhhhhhhhh,
Ripple, ripple,
Plop. plop.
Notes of Summer,
The song of the river.

Two Touch

Two touch, too be touched,
Two souls meeting, dancing in time,
joys, smiles, laughter,
The sound of the drum, music, rhthym,
Moving in time,
Precious moments, shared exchanged,
Fleeting, fleeing,
Like grains of sand through your toes,
The hour glass of time.

My Pen

My Pen, my salvation!
My journey into the unknown,
To far of places, yet unknown,
To discover,
To venture,
To find,
What lies within, what comes forward,
What should be left behind.

My salvation, my destination, arriving , departing,
Always changing - never remaining,
Touching, being touched,
My pen, my salvation, my life, my time................

The Sound of Hapiness

The screams of shear joy,
Paddling, splashing, jumping,
The summer breeze blowing on smiling faces,
Refreshing, dancing, moving,
Oh to be carefree,
Oh to be a child at play,
Oh happy, happy, happy Summer days.

Treasure Each Day

Treasure each day!
Value your life,
For too soon my friend it passes away,
Like the ebb and flow of the tides,
As day follows night,
All things change,
What is left?
What remains?
It is what you have given to anothers heart that stays my friend, remember,
A smile, a touch, a kindness, a phrase,
There you live on, there you remain.

Loss

To make you wonder,
Question everything,
Was it all a lie?
Was I just an amusement?
Something to play with, then toss aside,
With no real thought or care,
No looking back, were you ever really there!
How will I know,
I know,
I know from deep inside.

In Faith & Love

How does one carry on?
Friends on the phone?
Smiling, saying the right words,
Comfort given,
Giving comfort,
Yet inside all is crumbling,
I just want to hide -
Need to gather my strength,
To face what lies ahead,
Reborn, rejuvenated, revitalised,
For no matter what comes my way,
I will face with God's good grace,
I will walk forward in faith and love,
And trust my future to heaven above.

Hope

Hold on to hope,
Do not let go,
Have no fear ,
Thought the winds of change blow,
All is never lost!
Through adversity we grow,
From our darkes hour,
The illumination shows.

No Text-No Tone

How hard is it being on one's own!
Watching for the text, listening for the tone,
The emptiness of tears slightly rolling down your face,
He's not there to take away the pain,
Lost in thought,
Bereft-alone,
Overwhelming sadness,
Will I ever know,
The joy of their being that someone special who cares,
who does not just say the words,
Who's really there!

Missing You

Missing you,
Loving you,
When will it end?
The pain of realisation,
That it will never be again,
When memories warm,
And gratitude abounds,
That I once met and knew you,
Was loved and loved in return.

Only You

Who has dispelled the shadows in my heart,
Who brings a smile leaping to my lips,
who's tenderness caresses my very soul,
You my love and Only You.
