lovelost, autumn, lost,
If e're we could move that mountain from between thee and me,
where would be lament or reason to grieve?
How remove the hollow from the tree, or shore from the sea?
What left would there be?
What if ere the beam lost it's moon.
Or lovely Autumn raiment lost it's tree? What then would it be?
Can one sow the seed without the land?
Would this be what Powers planned?
The grief, the longing, oh, the heartfelt gaze,
The strife the loneliness, but a soulful phase.
A mountain surmountable, a hollow fulfilled,
A sea able to be, a beam again spilled.
A stage again for raiment,... a fertile valley for seed.
Our love could not be boundless without the bonds of these.

beauty, love, lust, sexy,
I am the sultry silence
the wishbone
of your dreams
feel my warm breath
slither down your throat
across your chest
feel my transparent tongue...
We rage the erotic battle
I feel your pulse race
my fingers of flame
caress all that is yours
I am your imagination
arching above your feminine form
I sink slowly into you...
Just so you know my love
you will never be able
to shake me from your dreams
I will seduce you to a place
beyond mere thoughts and words
tonight, dream of us...

My thirst for undying love I wished to quench
Drinking from the source of your enviable lips
Few droplets of nectar my soul was able to sip
That ample were though my craving to eclipse!

i love you,
I always think of you though you are far away
Long to be able to give you a big hug
Only you can make me feel this way
Visions of you in my mind
Each and every day
You are so so precious
One special person in my life
U are my lovely son

love, life, universe,
In here I can be anything
that you desire,
your lonely soul, your heartstring
even become your ring your locket,
I can evolve to become
your strange universe
one to mould to create.
In here I can become your salvation
help to correct your natural order,
restore your universe
and in it place my life
in your willing clutches,
where life would become magic,
and I the magician able
to fix your dreams and wishes,
and long to become
an indelible part of you
when becoming your life long crutches!

drink, lost love, love,
I’m one drink closer to yesterday
A bottle away from being with you
I’ll be able to say what I need to say
I’ll be able to do what I need to do
I’m one drink closer to yesterday
My mind repeats the words we said
When love was new and could outweigh
The troubles that would lie ahead
Now my love is made of glass
I pour my heart as I trespass
On memories that I know must last
While wishing I could change the past
I’m one drink closer to yesterday
I’m one shot away from happiness
And this time, I won’t runaway
And my words won’t be meaningless

To love that which can not be loved
Is to accept grace from the Lord above
To hate that which should not be hated
Is to let one’s self be eternally degraded
To think that which should not be thought
Allows your own soul to be easily bought
Most things in life are very easy to see
If you hold simplistic views like me
“It is what it is” and it always was
The reason why, “Just because”
What shall happen shall come to pass
Accept it gracefully and show your class
As you live out the story of your today
Let Jesus Christ guide your way
In doing so you will be able to see
The Lord guiding you to eternity

Diamonds, gems, silver, and gold would never be able for a soul to beautify.
It takes virtue, justice, mercy, and love first to seek - the soul to prettify!

fantasy, imagination, love, moon, nature, romance, sea,
In a world of conflict and scheming,
may I never awaken from dreaming
of someday being able to float
out -- out in my own little boat --
out on a moon-lit bay
where tropical waters play
and a cooling breeze drifts by.
The salt sea air would be bracing --
would set my weary heart racing --
there on that moon-bright bay.
Only gulls overhead, as they fly, and I,
would hear, from the sandy shore,
the palms as they rustle. I sigh --
oh -- I never would ask for more
than to float on the nurturing sea --
only you, and the moon, there with me.

Raise their voices to their loud pleas

conflict, dark, inspiration, spoken word, strength,
Don't do it.
Don't fall back into that dark hole.
Not again.
You're strong.
You're very strong.
You've come far and you are able to go further.
Don't give up.
You got this.
I promise.
Mom is watching.
She's proud of you.
Just because you made
A few bad decisions
Doesn't mean you're a bad person.
She loves you.
But you have to learn
How to love yourself.
You're not that person who's trying to take over your body.
Fight against her.
That's not you.
You're stronger than your enemy.
..
Don't do it.
Don't fall back into that dark hole.
Not again.
You ARE strong.
Now look in the mirror
And tell that reflection
That she is beautiful.
Because you are.

beauty, love hurts,
With your cruelty
You turned my heart to stone
Then with skillful hands
You crafted it with your chisel
Chipping away small pieces
Sculpting life like wings
Providing the illusion of magnificence
How the world marveled at your masterpiece
Envied my perceived trancendence
Yet sadly my heart would never be able to fly!

My Lord,
Give us the will
To overcome our heartless indifference for
Those who suffer
So as
Able us to be,
In the ever-stretching desert of apathy, your
Seed of concern to sow!

black love,
What love means to me is beyond definition
when you fall in love, it's a big transition
being in love is a very nice feeling
to stay in love, you and I have to be giving
What love means to me is like a sunray
love is something we have day by day
love means holding hands, walking in the park
love means hearing sounds of a lark
What love means to me, is a free expression
how you fall in love is your discretion
love is not, being takened for granted
but love is, that you've landed
What love means to me is choosing my mate
love is being able to communicate
love is taking romantic walks on the beach
this is what love means to me

life, love, love,
I just thought as I looked at the table,
to love I am no longer able.
I look at the vase,
take a second look just in case.
It came to me,
our so called love I now see.
Our love may be fake but forever will last,
despite our troublesome past.
Plastic flowers I stare,
not real but who would care.
Our love is as fake as the flowers,
to revive you would need powers.
Yet fake flowers need no tending,
and love you are not sending.
You can just leave them their,
forever they'll last not needing air.

heart, life, love, wife,
You have the key that opens my heart,
It was locked deep within not to depart.
I gave this key for you to look and see;
Your choice was to open it and set me free.
With this key you will be able see,
We have a special place you and me.
Your heart and my heart in our nest,
Makes what we have the very best.
Wherever I go you are always with me,
From nightly dreams to the mighty sea.
Every morning when I awake,
I look to your eyes for a keepsake.
My love for you is forever true,
I just want to say "I Love You"

If elephants were able to fly
And soar above the clouds on high

“ I am”
I am myself the only one to see
I am so delicate and easy to break
Maybe I will be free and then I can make some cake
One day I will be far from home and free
I am so tired of being alone and in pain
I want to be thought of and held so tight
Can there just be one time where I stick up and fight?
I love to go out and just dance in the rain
As life passes by I still love to hide
I want to be able to find some love
I washed my lovely body with some Dove
When my wings fall I wont be able to fly
Sometimes all you have to do is just cry
The day will soon come when I fine my pride

husband, love, sadday,
Another sleepless night alone,
as thoughts raced through my head,
thinking about that day you left,
and the last words that you said.
I wake up several times at night,
reaching for an empty space,
hoping all was just a dream,
and I’d wake to see your face.
Never does a day pass by,
when I don’t wonder how you feel,
and when I start to really worry,
I just bow my head and kneel.
“Please god be his eyes,
when his duty is in the field,
bring him home safe and sound,
god please protect him, and be his shield.”
Every time i say those words,
a wave of calmness comes over me,
and I’m finally able to close my eyes,
to finally get some sleep.

kiss, love, nature,
We meander off the beaten path,
A veritable sally,
Admiring the flight of lively swallows
Above the green vast valley.
Puffy white clouds form and reform,
Methinks, one looks like a galley.
The twittering birds in perfect harmony,
Look like a rally.
Sheep graze here and there,
How lovely to be able to dilly dally.
We find some rest beneath a shady willow
And steal a kiss from my pretty Sally.
One Kiss? What a poor show,
Finally, I could not keep the tally.
Enchanted and happy,
We just meander back to our alley.

dedication, friendship, lifelove,
Loss carried with strength.
Loss that goes on through out his life.
He will never put it down..
It lingers like her perfume.
A fine heart, important to his friends.
Able to write words that grab the soul
And wont let go.
A sense of humor..a word or phrase
That brings a smile and lightens
The load for a moment.
A man with a gift for teaching
his craft. Gaining respect, admiration
And love from his students.
Pride in knowing that he is more than a friend
And that he has gained the respect of his peers
here on the soup.
It’s easy to love H. Garvey Daniel, Esquire.

friendship, god, love,
You asked me the other day, my dear friend,
How come I:
Think of you,
Worry about you,
Care for you?
Feel your grief and partake in your joy?
Share your dreams and face your fears?
You were not able to understand the reason I stand by your side
In moments of:
Success and failure
Laughter and tears
In sickness and in health
In celebration and in mourning
You wanted to know why:
Gave you food and shelter?
Never abandoned you but became your companion?
Now the time has come for me an
Answer to give:
It is simply because
I LOVE YOU!

love,
The sweetest words
are those not said
sagacious eyes
of love instead.
To touch is able
to know in fact
a genuine soul
of love intact.
A vibrant accord
in this world I’m sure
luck of the draw
this love so pure?
