Alone

They came and went, 
Hurried, slow – the pace, 
The laughter spent, 
The crying came. 
I watched them, 
Through his eyes – Alone, 
Now they are gone, 
His tomb – My own.

Another Place, Another Time

Will you wait a moment please? 
I’ve heard your voice before, 
Birdsong on a fresh spring day, 
Echoes of a bloom long gone. 
 
Fair lass don’t turn your back on me, 
I’ve held that flaxen hair, 
Spun gold with summer’s fragrant breeze, 
The sunrise of my days. 

Now look at me with those eyes so blue, 
I’ve gazed into their depths, 
Sky blue oceans, midnight lights, 
I loved them till I bled. 

You do not hear my heartfelt cry, 
A fleeting look, then pass me by. 
My soul remembers, memories, 
Another place, another time.

My Love Will Find Me Like Night Finds Day


My love, I follow thee today,
Today, tomorrow, everyday.

At dawn I feel the sunshine new,
By dusk I hope to follow through.

Drifting through time and space – a sea,
Willing my world to drift to thee,
As diamonds glint in the great black night,
The mountains whisper that all will be right,
Drifting through time and space – a dream,
In a state of continuum, I believe I see.

The dawn now subtle in strength renewed,
The dusk my moment of all that’s true.

Today, tomorrow, and everyday,
My love will find me, like night finds day.

Bridge Across Eternity


Across the bridge,
The story goes,
A hunter’s maiden
Built her home,
A home that stood
Through storm and rain,
A home that sheltered
All her pain.

Her name forgotten,
Now unknown,
The name of the child,
He called his own.

Across the bridge,
A child now grown,
Looked for her mother,
And a home of old.
Find her she did,
The story goes,
A part of the heavens,
And a river bold.
