My Bird with a “Broken Wing”
Oh bird with a Broken wing -fly no more, no more.
You don’t dance the naked skies
Or glide from shore to shore.
Oh bird with a Broken wing
You see your lovers gone,
For they fly so high above the sky
To face another dawn
Oh bird with a Broken wing
I will be by your side
For I know the pain of love so flown
That dies at eventide ….
Oh bird with a Broken wing
You will weep no more, no more
For I will nurse your tender heart
Till you fly from shore to shore
And then again when dawn doth come
And bath a tender earth
You will have hope to love again
And feel a brand new birth.
The love you find will set me free
To feel my heart and sing
The little one that touched my soul
My bird with a Broken wing.

OH RISE TODAY !!!
Oh rise, tides of hope,
Dashed on rocks, floating high,
Above the storms of angered wrath,
Above the clouds that storms the skies !!!!!!
Oh rise, songs of cheer,
That angels share with humankind,
To heal the love of earth’s despair,
To touch the hopes of heart and mind.
Oh rise, you troubled soul,
For, to love is our greatest song
A gift that holds our human touch
A melody that can last so long.
Oh rise !! strength that lies within,
Oh, rise!! a song of hope today,
Oh rise above the angry cries,
And wash the stricken hurt away.
Oh, rise, oh rise, oh rise today….
And grant a space for love to stay !!!!

Storm Warning
May storms pass you by,
…. and bend those willow trees,
To gently fly like a bird in the sky,
And float on the autumn breeze.
Do not let it hurt your heart,
To draw a breath of deep repose,
But give you courage through its rage,
And hope within you doth compose.
For when the raging seas doth calm,
And once again your heart doth beat,
You will see that cloudless sky,
And heavens angels singing sweet.
For in all birth there doth, lie death,
And in all growing: deep decay,
And in our pain, there is always love
To wipe your gentle tears away.
And once again this world will help
To build your dreams all fresh and new
Cradled in those hands that help
And bathed with hope and morning dew
So wait ! Until the wind has died
And a new dawn will paint your day
And hear the distant angels cry
and help you wash your pain away
To face the world with hope and joy
To live another, blessed day.
May God Keep you safe

ENCHANTED
The Rustle of the Leaves are the wind chimes of heaven,
And the cool breeze a charm ever forgave,
A ripple of a stream, a song to be heard-
And the gentle echo or that lonely bird-
Ah! but it is I that will rest and see
How much this earth loves and lives
Just for me.
Would I be its child and nestle in its womb
Or would I pillage its glory and create its tomb
Is it my place in its glory to hurt it’ great might
Or be a part of a great healing – and not of a great fight!
For I chose to be loving and caring today,
I chose to be loyal in a gentle sweet way
As I listen to the rustle of the earthly wind chimes
And lay my soul in its bosom
And my hope with it Lies,
As I pray for anger to dissolve and to die
Come dance the song of life with me
For we live in such beauty and such serenity!
Serenity
Oh Behold..
Oh behold a flower.
Ah, behold the simple joy of a flower. Let it speak to your heart.
Let it fire your spirit, where hope is not apart
Oh behold it’s tender, and short-lived reign,
A queen for a moment was devoid of hurt and pain.
Oh behold a flower, for in it lies,
The essence of eternity,
With love, hope – at eventide!
Desire to Feel
From one anger stems another. One is no better than the other..
It is not to lie down and bear it.
But it is best, not to share it.
Seek within a deeper truth.
That which made the crime afoot,
Then when we have passed the test
Of walking the sinners path and quest.
For it is then we cast a stone,
For until then a fates unknown.
But we will never fill the shoes
Of those who suffer and those who loose.
So ask for healing for such wrath
and hope, with peace
will all love must surely come to pass.

Be inspired
At times when life will take your faith
And leave you on the floor,
Be unafraid and save your joy
For with your strength and force employ,
You will rise above the stormy sea
And with eagles wings to glide,
And be so free.
Your miracle is there to have
But seek a helping hand.
Avoid a fetal shrouded pose
But rise is faith, with strong repose.
For when kind words are felt within
And you know your joy will win
You will fly again and see
The Beaty of this world- as it was meant to be.
So find that magic of your heart
Don’t let it sink or fall apart,
But when you lay your head to pray
Your miracle will come your way,
For angles dance and eagles glide
And hope will sway with dance and stride,
So feel a breath of joy today,
And your hope will come to life, and stay.
But for such a hope to aspire,
Be inspired from within- with bliss and desire !

We Are
When breath resides,
….with the ebb and flow of tides
And passions are aglow,
Within a heart, never more to hide
Love will abide – within the cool
of a gentle, eventide.
When a yearning brings
To a heart that sings
Surely there God abides.
Then this heart creates
the hungry thirst abates
Never more to die.
Dancing spirit, against a moonlit sky
With now I have no fear,
For love is dear, and I do not miss you
Far or near.
For you stay within my heart, alway,
For as we draw our breath
Love will be in life with me,
As is it be with me in death.
For Love has touched my heart
and within its folds, it will live
never near or far apart
For true touch once felt
into nothing can it … ever melt.
For Paris
God Give us peace to share love and feel greif,
Even for those who die with hate
and for those who left without good bye
For the hearts that mourn.. and hearts that sigh
Man makes hell – whose hate can quell… the right to live and die.
But may it bring a love song to sing…
For LOVE needs no reason why.. For Love Will LIVE
and never ever die.
