A Guiding Light

Respect, gratitude
All needed
Felt
With a sincere attitude.

Let love hold you safe
Feel secure
In arms
That envelope you. 

Know
In the morning
Late at night
You’re not alone.

You have
A saviour, a protector
A guiding light
Holding you.

Wrath Of What Has Been

I’ve experienced the very wrath
Of what has come, has been
No remorse felt or regrets that last 
No happiness seen. 

Let me be away from this
Be and feel pure joy, pure bliss 
And that happiness 
That’s been evading me.

This I ask, beg and plead
Knowing it’s up to me to be
In that embrace, that love 
I want to feel and see.

Take Hold Of Me

Take hold of me 
And please hold tight 

Protect, guide me
Through the darkest night

Let no harm come to me
Or those I love

This I ask, I ask of you
My sweet love.

Holding On, Holding Close

Holding on, holding close 
all that I love and cherish
through
the darkest time.

Let us not be separated
or
hurt in anyway 
any kind.

This I ask
I pray
to
the wondrous, great Divine.

The Sun Shines Bright

The sun shines bright 
Radiating, glowing
with
all it’s might. 

Let me not
be standing in the shadows
not feeling
its’ love, warmth, beauty
and
delight.

Wonders

You have been 
I’ve seen 
Wonders beyond belief 

Life does give us 
Such wondrous things 

All we have to do 
Is look, see and love
These lovely things.

I Have Seen

I have seen 
I haven’t been
the one  you want 
this I know 
I haven’t been. 

Days go by 
nights seem 
to melt into nothingness 
where nothing lives 
nothings been. 

Still you’re on my mind 
and I have seen 
there’s a chance 
you’ve heard my voice 
you’ve seen. 

I’m here
I live, I love 
I am
a human being.

Happy ‘CANADA DAY’ tomorrow!!!

A Home Is A Home

A home is a home 
no matter the width, the size 
treasured forever 
lived in from birth 
to the time you die. 

Feel the gentle breathing 
of timbers and frame 
holding strong
in winter winds, torrential rains. 

All are welcomed 
with love, no despair 
come 
step into this home. 

There you’ll share 
laughs, great food 
and
a glass of sweet cheer.

I Have Heard And Think

I have heard and think 
it is to be
a world full of greatness, love 
and most of all 
beauty. 

Let me see this world 
let me experience it’s beauty 
let me live in peace 
and most of all 
loving harmony.

When I Look Out To Sea

When I look out to sea 
I see you looking
looking back over
just at me 

The waves roll in
and
back out again 
bringing with them 
a message from overseas 
a message
you sent just for me 

In my thoughts I touch your lips 
say words of love 
then send them
on the wind 
over water, overseas 
to you with love 
just from me.
