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
