Mystery of the Heart

What spell is this I've fallen into, maybe a dream is all it is

As today passes, what I feel may go away, its power over me a memory past

When tomorrow comes I will awake to a freedom within my heart that only I will know

A freedom something I think I would rather not to last

What can I do, how do I give in as I fall for this longing taking hold

The sweetest of all dreams that I may ever know

And I wander aimlessly to this call, to this dream, this nameless thing

Never looking back, onward through life and dreams I gladly go

Drawn with every breath I take to pay heed to its call to its hold

Were I to give into its want, embrace it with all I am and all I have

Give my heart freely and without regret, offer it for all it is

Become a part of this dream of this day, give it my heart to save

I have wandered around this thing much too long I finally see

It's there to guide me, to show me, to keep me in its throes

Capture my heart, place it with the one who truly cares

Allow this thing called love, gather it from someone who knows

And there she is, as sweet as my dreams allowed her to be

Surely an angel without wings, and all that love could ever be

What would hold me now to this mystery of my heart I've found

Is the love within this dream, true love, that fell from her heart to me

Flying

Pretty little bluebird, smiling

Soaring in the big blue sky

Today he finally has his turn

This day he will learn to fly

Excitement overtakes him

As he gains the speed to soar

His feathers flowing in the breeze

As he fears to fly no more

Up and down, high and low

As fast as he can go

The fun he is having for now, it seems

There is something else to know

He must have overlooked it

As he learns to fly first hand

The thing that comes most needed

Is to know just how to land

So he sees the thing that he must do

As he eyes the branch below him

Drift ever slowly as best he can

Take hold to catch this limb

Ever closer he comes to time his grip

As now he begins to grin

For surely he has it right this time

Oooops he missed again

Heaven's Door

When Heaven’s door is open wide, and the time for us to enter

I’ll know down deep inside my heart, you were the one I’m meant for

For time may stop, and stars grow dim, my heart no longer beating

If I'm to be beside this gate I'll wait for our next meeting

I know that time may someday end, and all we know is gone

A dream down deep inside my soul will keep me hanging on

If love is what I think it is, and you feel the same as I

We will live our lives forevermore, and never say goodbye

These are my promised words of love, from my soul so deep within
All my love, my heart, my soul, and dreams, and too my silly grin
Are yours to take, to have and hold, and treasure within your heart
Hold them close and dear, and the end of time is just the time to start

And what if time goes on and on, and our hearts are still as one
Could our love withstand the trials of time, and never be undone
Our love will last as it always will, as time has done before
You'll look up and see me standing there, right here at Heaven’s door

Earthworm

Happy little earthworm

Excited as he can be

Invited for an outing

Was hoping he was free

An invitation sent quickly

An answer sent so soon

Reply, my family has to go as well

And we can’t stay out past noon

No worry, there is room for all

They’ll know what they’d be missing

Past noon, no problem there you see

We are only going fishing

A Star To Wish Upon

It is that I am, and it is that I will always be 

Bound within the confines of the shadow of your love

Caught in the grip of a heart that holds onto all dreams

And farther not I wander still to be within your arms

And caress with my smile your kiss upon my lips it seems

I harbor thoughts of love of long time lost and gone and those of yet to be

And of all those loves that would be within our grasp

Look upon me with eyes of pure delight sweet dream

And bring from past times, love found, surely one to last

And forever wait if I must to hold you gently within my arms

Deliver my words of love softly sounding upon your ears

Give in to desires to speak your name sweetly from my lips falling

To pass the days, the weeks, and even forever if it goes beyond the years

And still I wait for the words of love to fall upon me in sweet delight

Wondering if the day will come that the dreams of ongoing passion

Shall ever drift into my heart and forever rest within me

And keep me cast within your spell of this wish forever ever lasting

And if it is that a wish is all it takes to have you nearer still beside me

Warm your hand within mine to calm the fears that all surround

Make dreams and wishes and heartfelt memories to bring us ever closer

Hold us keep us ever watchful of the love that holds us bound

Silent still is this shadow drawn upon my heart from you I am

Aware I’m not of love nearly fulfilled within me

Were the night to give to daytime a star that I could wish upon

It is that I am and compelled I would be, with all my heart and soul 

 To simply wish for thee
