The full and caring heart
Waits to hear
The sound of love
Raining down.
No drip, drop of seething hate
No frustration, anger
Making lonely roads
Seem so long.
Just love and caring
Gentle kindness freely given
No strings attached
No ‘What if’s’
None of that.
All we see, all we feel
Is loving
Caring, pleasant thoughts
Raining Down.

Known is not known
Known anywhere
Bright, airy time goes by
Changing, blending caring
Not caring whether we know
What’s to come
Or why things were done
It’s unknown that known
To come.

Tenderness, loving and caring
Caressing my heart, my life
Tender touch holding me
In warmth
This very night.
Smiling, laughing
Bringing cheer and delight
May you feel love like this
May it hold you safe and secure
All thru your life

Have you seen optimistic?
Where, oh where could she be?
At one time she was here
Right beside of me.
She kept me company
Laughed and made me see
The happy, caring way
Just what I need.
But yesterday
She left, she left me
Have you seen optimistic?
If you do, please tell me.

Sometimes
It makes me mad
Crazy in my thoughts
No hugging
Loving caring thoughts
Just crazy mad
Is all I’ve got.

Why it happened
I don’t know
Dealing with the aftermath
Is not a pretty show.
Maybe I’ll be better
Maybe I’ll get thru all this
I don’t know.
Sorrow and sadness carry me
Make the world slow
Forever, it seems no pleasure
Caring I don’t know.
Will it end?
Will I be happy once more?
I don’t know
I just don’t know.

Tenderness, loving and caring

This very night.

Bringing cheer and delight
May you feel love like this
May it hold you safe and secure
All thru your life

Helping those who help
Seeking ones who need
Whether it be you
Whether it be me.
Small steps in the midst
Of caring joy carrying
Helping
Those who seek.

Still silence stands quietly by
While my heart sings a tender lullaby
Strands of caring gently caress my soul
Now no more alone
My spirit reaches and it soars.
