POTD 5th Feb 18
Dedicated to Ken, a good friend of mine who had to give up a brilliant ballet, ballroom dancing and stage career when he was injured after a fall while performing a complicated dance routine maneuver on stageI hope you will enjoy the video too!
Awakened by the sighs of the whispering trees
Looking across the vast empty space he sees
His winged companion pondering in wisdom
Visiting frequently knowing the significance of Freedom
Waltzing through his mind she invades once more
Intruding reflections oppress thoughts that soar
Imprisoned dreams midst fields of unpicked seams
Endless chasms of regrets in which no sunlight beams
Broken chords strumming tunelessly in solitude
Of songs of praises by an adoring multitude
Time when they were darlings of virtuosic impression
Dancing in wild abandon to a public adoration
Truly enamoured in each other their love did blossom
Though in Life’s carousel sadly far too often
Pursuing perfection whatever may befall
One gets absorbed in the fluster of a fall
Adorning false crowns in high esteem
Ego soars and plummets and shatters the dream
Negative energy interrupts Life’s Grand Scheme
The fall
In the drop of a pin - displeasure he perceives
Their past idolising could not now appease
The icy cold rejection she projects as she flees
Leaving a broken man - who has failed to please
For many long years he lays wishing Death’s end
Dwelling on memories of his so called friend
Friends he thought solid who chose to ignore
Even in his whispered words ‘forgive me I implore’
Shunned he was before his knees hit the floor
Long years of solitude one day he awakens
To find that his dark soulless days have forsaken
Terrors of the night have been released - set free
False security dismissed by a Heavenly decree
From an unsuspecting sky all dark clouds flee
Dark night of the soul heralds White light of the self
Perceptions of enlightenment an awakening of himself
From the corner of his eye a movement he detects
A woman of the White Light he strongly suspects
In her iridescent persona to her task she ascends
His vulnerability she sees and her hand she extends
And in a confetti of star showers his heart she mends

Love is not a color,
No hue, neither a race.
All of our blood is the same,
That runs deep within our veins.
If we could lift up each other,
And know that we all care.
If we help our sisters and brothers,
There's a bond that we'll share.

~Moon & Sea~
Hey, boy won't you open that door?
Let's sing and walk by the shore
Come and spread out your eyes
Block looking for reasons, and ways?
The cosmos are more than a space to explore
Don't hide when I need...Plus more.
Finish playing a master in disguise!
Let's find the perfect sunrise, sunset surprise
Put your arms around me
Allow your moon to reflect off my sea
Too much time has passed you by
Come outside with and view the horizon up high
I've got my eyes set upon you
There's no need to feel blue
Hey, boy comes, climb up this tree!
I'm going to show you all the things you can't touch, you can't see.
Let's fit the luxury and beauty of this world into our play.
Don't say them words that will set me free to walk away.
Take this kiss and see how it feel deep within your heart.
Close your eyes in my garden, and draw with the fragrance of art
I want to take you into that space, astronomy love.
Making it easy to float with the clouds way up above.
Glide away from the blame of gravity and self-destruct
A bounce of the dust of hurt when you fall and get cut.
Boy, let's hold in this perfect air together.
Leave the cold end of someone else's weather.
Follow me beyond the distance of chemistry.
I will expose your moon and explain the physics of my sea
Give it another chance and you will see!
Your moon, is skin deep, needing water from me
Turn on the tune in your heart, and listen to me
In every sunrise, the moon entwines with the sea

Iris sun fades and so does the day
whispers the carried in the silence of night glowing
Wishes floating on silver trails faraway
The image of your face will forever bounded to this world
Angels Brought you to me made a lightening
sparkling diamonds in the misting treasures gems so bright
Ice roses turns into a steaming jungle of quivering glass
Flashing in the distance, in the moon light
and all of its stars, that's where the angels dancing
A beautiful adventure picture sparklers on a winter night
A cold moon dressed in dark velvet
with a pearl milky white smile beams
Sparkling jewel crystal lights up
stars blinking silver awakening
warm invading darkness your light
My life has at last found its light and its hope
Soulful cries a wolf dressed in winter clothes
faraway over ocean waves
carries in a wind’s whisper sweet music dances
A magical night that will set the spirit free
Silently breathes out a puff of magic sweetly
beauty enchants warmly etching strikes
frosted fingers cracking ice deeply echoes
Striking inside bells toll warmly skipping drumbeats
bouncing of chamber walls loving tunes
Believing in your love a dream
Which enchants music of the butterflies dance
howling clouds out steaming warm sighs fluttering warmly
I closed my eyes at the end of the road
and thought of the stars
and the reason earth spins around the sun

"COMMUNION"
You speak to me in tongues
I hear you with my heart
I feel you with my mind
Like a Spring bloom, I am slowly unfurling
Like a ripe plum, you taste me in my rhymes
You touch me black ink injected drug potent
Red Poppies between lines
I sense you in your dreams
They are swelling next to mine
Like a drunk, I swallow all your delicious words
You turn into endless Golden Chalices of Altar Wine
I see you through your mirrors
COMMUNION - You see me, walking now through mine.

"Thy Beautiful Heart : The Blue Faerie’s Baby"
'Tis brave the heart of a lionhearted cub
When Butterflies aren’t pretty
Aren’t all what they seem
Monsters that do steal teeth
from the Blue Faerie's Baby
A glass jar full of plundered precious
Pearls of White Ivory,
not sweet honey bees
The cub must remember the magic strength of
LOVE
Stand firm clasping it to
thy beautiful heart
thy beautiful heart that was borne from pure love
all of her beautiful dreams
to believe to dream real
“Walk with courage”, she heard her say
Soft footsteps always follow
They’ve never walked away
Guarding her from wolves and monks gone astray
Both are walking in Light beams the two from the Fey
All will come good on the morrow
For the Blue Faerie’s Baby
There is to be no more Black Sorrow
Love, Time is tumbling
Love with all of thy beautiful heart
Time, 'tis no more to be borrowed.
Love's kiss from a mother's heart
breaks the Papillon Spell.
(Lovejoy-Burton, August 2018)
for my daughter, Georgia -
Close your eyes when you listen to the music...it adds more power to the spell.

Turn on the beats of the heart
And loud love.
The soul longs to hum
The tune of passion.
An upbeat aura of magic
Steering the ride.
An everlasting journey of love
Luring hearts to be on board.
A puff of spring breeze turning mild
Blankets of frozen feelings.
Breathe in the scent of love
Design a divine cocoon.
The music within is warm enough
To bloom.
Uncage fears and worries
Rejoice what of beauty
In can be filled.
Seize times of glee
And set the soul free.
Turn on the beats of the heart
And loud love.

death, grief, hope, inspirational, heart, friend, heart, journey, love,
Grief is not something we “get through”…
you “get through” a bad day
Grief is not something we “get over”,
“you ”get over” a cold”
Grief is not something we “move on from”
you “move on from” a bad relationship”
But Grief is… a companion we “move forward with”,
learning from and growing, with each agonizing step.
Grief is… a heart-wrenching process, not bound by time,
But sets us on a “lifelong journey” of finding truth and meaning…
Grief is not a crutch we hold onto for pity
It is not a lack in character
It is not a weakness that needs to be strengthened
Or a problem that needs fixing
It is not an enemy to be slain
Or like a wild animal, to be caged
Grief is… “A METAMORPHOSIS OF HUMAN LIFE”
YES! that needs “time”… “A LIFETIME”
Grief is… an acknowledgement of true love shared
and true love lost
Grief is… a love we hold so deep within our souls
That our tears fall to caress the pain…
“God given tears”, full of purpose and meaning
For each one carries with it a piece of our heart
grief hugs us and holds us close
to a great love we can no longer touch…
grief is… our friend for without it
our lives would have been a lie.
Grief is…purely and simply a journey of love
It is a friend, to those of us who mourn
A friend who sees what we need and allows us to be us
Grief is a release of unimaginable pain…
a release of a great indescribable loss…
Grief is… the bridge that crosses repentant oceans,
spans desolate canyons, and fear filled mountain tops.
that we may cross over this tragedy to a renewed heart
by means of the love we shared and continue to share
through the love of our Almighty God
Grief is…
A pain we can use, to broaden our hearts
and the hearts of all those around us
it is… a road we must travel to gain wisdom.
A level of wisdom you will never achieve by playing strong.
For only when we sink to the bottomless pit of grief
Will we be awakened by the light of truth.
Grief…
Do not judge it… for it contains Gods secrets
Secrets you can only hear by listening
through the blare of the pain.
It is a sacred contract to be in awe of and inspired by
To learn from and grow from
To gain compassion and understanding from
It is a journey that holds a sacred contract
That will be signed by each and every one of us
Who has the strength… and the courage…
to love with all your heart and all your soul.
It is not a journey I would wish on anyone
But now that I am here I will walk it with honor
And purpose, with my head held high and my feet in stride
For at the end of this road there you’ll be,
waiting to take me home.

FORGOTTEN TREASURE
I've found the fountain of youth
When I stumbled across the forbidden garden
Right in the middle of everything
Was what I imagined being a wishing well
I at once tossed a quarter into the sea
Facing down, puzzled as can be
I peeked in to ensure where it fell
I tipped over and that's when I saw my vanity
It was sitting there waiting for me
The reflection was before this day and age
I thought, what could this be?
With one drop on my taste buds
I knew I found the one true key
The most beautiful thing that can set one free
I reached in to touch the poetry inside me

The love that is shared will always shine its rays, nothing to fear

heart, love,
Should there be such pain in
passion of the heart?
Or does the heart,
simply by beating,
know the boundaries of pain
when it can no longer absorb any more joy?
The two seem intertwined at times,
each exalted unto itself.
From euphoria to melancholia,
the heart is on an endless journey
seeking harmony and balance,
yet finding anything but.
We torture our souls
for the sake of love,
enduring countless curves,
on the road to the steep summit
where a plateau cannot survive
the weathered storms for long,
but for the season’s summers
we exist.

feelings, happiness, journey, love, nature, peace, romance,
I am seated in a bed-like rock
Under the foothills this is a single block
The Sun rises behind my back
Though I face hills in the west, its rise I could track
The dawn delightfully unfurl
Mother nature decorates herself, like a girl
The valley is full of greenery
This is a soul soothing summer scenery
Flies are flying in group
With joy and strength, to recoup
Honey bees are busy flying from one to other flower
A fresh flower spreads the fragrance in the air
A group of sparrows fly at a low height
Jubilantly enjoying the new light
A tiniest sparrow dances by jumping from one leaf to the other of a plant
On seeing this, I too wish to jump out of joy, like an infant
Peacocks register their scream from a nearby place
I could hear well, as this area is ruled by peace
From a distant rock, a pair of peacock looks
Displaying the richest colors of their outlooks
Birds potentially program their offspring by singing to their eggs, at a short distance
One may think that they raise the voice with a grievance
Before me, a rabbit runs ruthlessly
Forgetting self, I sit here like lifelessly
Fight of monkeys upon trees on the top of the hill, comes like a melody
Free for all, as the whole range is under His custody
Clouds try to attract my attention with an array of colors
Peace as the Prince on the stage, countless others are actors
Breeze blows as if to say she is the most adorable among all
Of course, choosing the one among all is hard to tell
This is a mind moving morning
In my life, this day is a fine inning
My heart desires to lie under this foothill
But my soul is not full
as my mind yearns for my love
Of course, this place is like a paradise, as above
If I am to cherish my love even in a paradise,
the power of love, you may be pleased to praise
Though I stay away at a far off place
The feelings of romance runs like a race
To live here, to the God, I shall be abundantly faithful
But to conquer my soul, other than such love, nothing is more powerful !

Fly to me my love
on the wings of hopes and dreams
come and be my passion
a lover's symphony
Be my guiding star light
show me all of nature's best
come and be my pillow
where my weary head can rest
Take my hand and walk with me
on life's ever winding road
keep me safe and steady
hold me in our home
Let's sleep beside the moon tonight
camp inside the corners of my heart
be my one and only
my desire, my love, my start

journey, love,
On the road to your gypsy soul
in the vastness of my world
chasing heartbeats and fireflies
across wooden covered bridges
navigating deep and arid canyons
beneath a sweltering summer sun.
I'll trace the compass of our destiny
leading me to a foreign land
I'll find you roaming in flowering fields of daisies
where I will finally take your hand
I'll be in awe of your effervescent half-moon
glowing brightly in the night
I'll gaze longingly at your thousand stars
shining downward ever bright
I'll feel the breeze that you feel
blowing softly over the cobalt sea
together we'll be one with nature
setting all our spirits free
Not surrendering to temptation
because you are everything I need
I'll listen to your heart beat
for on your love I soon will feed

Crystal Bowl
A gold fish swimming round and round.
His world of glass is all surround.
Round and round, day and night
every round, reunite.
Day after day, night after night,
Everywhere he looked, always the same sight.
Outside of his bowl, there was a window.
in the horizon something full of glow.
It looked like a pond, further than beyond.
When he called that pond, there was no respond.
Love first taste is sweet, it makes you complete.
But if you mistreat, pain always repeat.
Dreaming day and night, of that golden sight,
Cool and clear night was filled with golden light.
Broken heart will cry is not satisfied.
The meaning of the ” love” is always mystified.
Outside of the house a narrow twisted creek
having conversation, with a language of mystique.
Calling up our fish, knew about his wish.
Telling him” love” is, painful and foolish.
Telling him that life is a stream that flows;
hoping for the rain, wishing for rainbows.
Gold fish heard the stream, which destroyed his dream.
In order to redeem, did something too extreme.
Jumped out of his bowl, thinking of his goal;
The golden pond became his body and his soul.
He landed on the ground; the dirt was all around,
The meaning of the “love”, for him got so profound.
He started to scream, his voice was just steam.
What if there is no dream? Death will be supreme!
He twisted, flipped and flipped, by luck in water he tripped.
His breathing came along, in water he was equipped.
He swam in back and forth, he twisted south and north
He cried in water cold, of what the” love” is worth.
He passed through his teens; his youth flew like dreams;
The autumn came and gone, his winter had no greens.
He reached the golden place; the place was filled with grace;
His life began to shine, the sadness showed no trace.
Swim and swim in wine, makes your soul refine.
If you swim in “ love”, love will let you shine.
A fisherman cruel and old; with eyes reddish and cold
He cast his net so wide, for fish the truth unfold
Our fish cried and cried, his world got cold and dried.
His life was passed him by, he gave up and complied.
The next day for our fish, was filled with tarnish;
Once more crystal bowl is fraught with anguish.
This time golden pond, that was far beyond;
Called our golden fish, he got no respond.
Love first taste is sweet, it makes you complete.
But if you mistreat, pain always repeat.
Remember our fish with his golden wish;
If you fall in love, get wild and foolish.
Haloo

emotions, feelings, god, journey, kiss, love, metaphor,
Without soul nourishment our spirits shall wither and die.
Words are a mere instrument, but can reflect truth to power
Of our faith within love and understanding—truth begs mercy,
Whilst melting honey-sweet crystals kiss thy soft warm cheeks
We dream and bathe inside the sun’s most radiant gift of desire
Cool waters of divine creation lovingly quench this desert fire,
And the haunting spectre of death shall never be an end to us!
Winds of such deep-thoughts softly and sweetly sting at once,
When I show you a mirror-image of what our destiny can be
Adrift in storms of fervid emotions I give in now to your love
I see a temple of beauty I once bowed down to under your gaze,
As your red-hot daggers strike deepest cords in this coldest breeze
Now holding hands sunlight-sparkled with you inside this dream,
This heartfelt satisfaction’s worth more than all the world’s gold!
Riches fall from Heaven now in shining jewels of misted pearls,
Whilst I walk alone in deepest thoughts in my blue suede shoes.
Living-loving inside a sole-soul of dreams—true and unbounded,
I hear songbirds whistle and whisper in such joy by God’s grace.
Our souls may nourish themselves on the eternal power of our love.
With God as our witness—we fear not what death shall bring to us,
For our love and true destiny exist far beyond this mortal world!

childhood, devotion, forgiveness, friendship, introspection, love, passion, recovery from..., journey,
Blood that screams mixes with tears of fears,
Over your hypocrisy and useless years.
Fresh cuts don't matter - your attentions yet wane.
It's just too easy to shut down, I could end this pain.
But, escape artists aren't artists at all.
When life ends the real journey begins, the journey to be
Above imperfection and glorified weakness everyone sees.
Life trickles into the drain of the sink, wash it and pretend
The veil is burning off,but there is only so much fire can mend
Besides, escape artists aren't artists at all.

"At the Seat of the Catacombs of Amygdala"
"...the curse ruled from the underground down by the shore
And their hope grew with a hunger to live unlike before..." The Curse
Violet Black the night is still
diving through oceans
of stars now waking
violins soaring in my
heart’s crater speed to
the seat of Amygdala
Descartes moving closer
anticipation,the Sphinx
is smiling and Horus waiting
in his castle calls me home
abandoned in my green field mind
of Lavendar spirits
swinging hidden essence of
secret monk’s theribles
shrouded hoods in their
grim reaper guarded
churchyards writing words
upon the air their Purgatory Alter
daughtermotherdaughter
Goddess prayers of devotion
stealing love from sharks
feeding them pearls
and sirens singing in their love
Indigo rapture velvet
bee keeper gloved hand
smoking catacombs
Supersedure Queens and
absent drones, bottles corking
time hideous time sand dripping
wet tears through the Hour Glass,
never stops diamonds drop by drop
acceleration dress-ups buckled
straight jacket uniform
no arms marching
with the Soldiers of Conform
setting tables,last feast rosaries
now I lay me down to sleep
up the stairs bowed and weeping
swept out of sight in starched collars
and cobwebs glistening Huntsman,
no Audrey Hepburn,no Caron Daddy Long legs
Aether sees her in a mirror
falling down to Hades Lewis' traps
on a hero’s mission
saving 3 Graces and returning
returning HOME.
Violet Black the night is still
diving through oceans
of stars now waking
waking she returns
spinning her Golden Chord
to pull you away closer
into her sweet dreams held to her
peaceful Polar Bear Hug sleeves
it was never cold in their Igloo
truth serum syllabub no silver spoon
happy dreams,rough seas,then peaceful
and still
Black Swan singing in
Joan of Arc chain mail
Heavenly wings slip
softly into starlight
away from stalking cats
blood sucking bats
barking Hounds of Baskerville
through galaxies of milky
honeycomb, to where God
hides in a protected glass snow globe
somewhere beyond
the pulsating No Go Zone
Charon’s been handed his token
None of this should be spoken.
Nyx has Aether in her arms
they are flying home
Violet Black the night is still
diving through oceans
of stars now waking.
Honeycomb cement feet
sacrificial drowning
A little death.
Supersedure.
Back in "their" kitchen
the smell of stewed pears and
chocolate cake baking.

Whispers at dawn I awaken near your yawn
Will you let me into your heart?
Dreams of passion I need your compassion
This will be our sensuous start
Falling in love all we need is a shove
Will you let me into your arms?
Breakfast for two your love I will chew
I’m drowning in your lucky charms
Side by side our love will preside
Will you let me into your essence?
Through forever always together
Within warming skies of iridescence
In circles of infinity we are divinity
Will you let me into your soul?
Through timeless space I will embrace
Our love sailing in a black hole.

Tap dances on steps to sanctuary sites
glued to visions felt from glory's grace
only in you I see
reflected in orbs of watchful care
dipped in mocha swirls
as time slowly disappears
a sense of attention
focusing on more than just an outer me
Soft shoe shuffles within the breeze
wistful remembrance and dainty dreams
filling the fragrant air
with a gust of evergreen
calling ever so calmly
for opened eyes and hearts
to harbor a frail humanity
and follow a simple way

I have tried to clear my mind of you
But the vision of you is always there, cradled in mind and heart
I will keep you safe and warm always
You should know my every thought ,from the strolls you've taken
Exploring every crevice making a path, the one you never seem to leave
You've even imprinted upon my soul
Carrying you with me always, warming my soul and heart everyday
While you forever occupy my mind, making me feel some kinda way
How can these things bring me peace?
Not a trespasser but a welcomed guest, my body gives you a home
Do you know these things I speak of?
Can you see it for what it is?
Or are you just a thief in the night?
Is your purpose to steal my very being?
I won't fight it,take what you need I give it to you free
Its my payment for the comfort you bring me!

If I'm there for you to the

If I'm there for you as a

If I'm there when life
tossed you round
If in your silence i speak

If no matter what i have

If I handle our differences

If over time you forget that

If I try to remind you

If I'm always there to help

Will you give me that love
in return
Will you be there for me

Dedicated to my Dad Jerry WNiday 3/20/1952 - 6/18/2013
I am who I am because of him
He’s the reason for my son’s name
He gave me my courage & my strength
To stand tall even when standing wasn’t easy
Stand for the ones who can’t
To think and fend for myself
I’m my Daddy made over
Taught me to fight back
To never back down
How to pick myself back up
When I’ve been knocked down
Fight for what I believe
I’m my Daddy made over
He gave me my stubbornness
Gave me my pride
Gave me my temper
Taught me not to take crap
To speak my mind no matter who
Work for what I want
I’m my Daddy made over
How to keep my emotions in check
How to handle large amounts of pain
When in trouble he always had my back
He knew how my mind worked better than anyone
I got it from him
I’m my Daddy made over
Even though he’s gone
I’ll stand and continue on
I may stumble I may fall
May even get hurt along the way
But I’ll pick myself back up
I’ll dust myself off and stand tall
I’m honored and proud to say
I’m my Daddy made over

lovedream, dream, journey, life, love, stars, together,
Together As One
To dream as one.
When we dream we dream as oneWhen we laugh we laugh as oneWe have a life
together that compliments one anotherWe have a love that is like no other it’s as
oneWe reach for the stars and look for the moonWe support and care for one
another on our journeys as our journeys cross paths.
We listen with excitement to each other’s dreamsTo understand and encourage
comes from the heartKnowing with certainty that we deserve the love we give and
receive as we are as oneWhat is wonderful for one is so for the other for our life
path is the sameKnowing one so well is to know one’s self without a doubt.
Dreams that come together both big and small shared by knowing hearts that want
the same want are as oneA love so strong can feel and guide with the stars and
moonSet in motion a force together nothing can sever but blessed be a dream
together as one!
Dream, laugh, and love we do as one for we became oneTogether we reach for the
stars and the moon as we share the paths we takeOur journey takes us many
directions to which we share our delightA journey worth taking is a journey worth
sharing…sharing as one!

The sweetest sounds of burning trees
A gentle stroking in the breeze
The calm has lasted past the storm
Cloudy visions, Satan’s roar
Too many sights have passed my way
A time found only in the haze
The softest screams are running bare
My aching bones creak as I stare
You walk a distance towards me
The fall’s eternal, can’t you see?
I’m a memory in your heart
I whisper to you in the dark
The battle’s started at the end
No one is coming to repent
The sinners grab their wine from prey
No judgment calling here to stay
The sport is reckless to be told
The one is laughing at his souls
It falters nowhere to be sure
The power grows forevermore
Like a spirit in the wind
I have no say in where you’ve been
But cross the line to come to me
And pay the price for ecstasy
You walk a distance towards me
The fall’s eternal, can’t you see?
I’m a memory in your heart
I whisper to you in the dark

Flailin’, flailin’, flailin’;
There goes my ball sailin’
Into a trap, the water or the woods.
Flailin’, flailin’, flailin’;
You can hear me wailin’,
“Why won’t that damn ball go where it should?
Drives go right Putts go wrong.
I shank my wedges or ‘skull’em’ long.
My golf game’s just no damn good.
I’m swingin’ too hard & lookin’ up;
As if I’ll actually see it go in the cup….
As if it ever really would.
My alignment’s too far left or right.
My ball can find the only tree or trap in sight,
Even if the shot starts out lookin’ good.
These days, I carry some special tools:
A handheld weed eater with extra spools
And a pruning saw, in case I’m in the woods
I’ve even tried to ‘buy’ a better game.
No matter My scores were just as lame.
Those new clubs didn’t do what they should.
Bogies & doubles...even triples..are common scores.
I very rarely get pars any more.
Believe me, I’d change it if I could.
My buddies said it must be me,
A teaching pro I should go see.
They said he’d fix my game…..if anybody could.
The pro said, “Hit some balls while I watch you.
Just set up and hit’em like you normally do.
We’ll see if I can do your game any good.”
After the first bucket of balls I hit,
He calmly said, “Take two weeks off…then quit.
Take my advice You really should.”
Now, what really has me vexed,
I’m wondering what I’ll try next.
That pro’s advice was no damn good.
So, I struggle along with my flailin’ game;
But, strangely enough, have fun just the same,
Finding hope in rare shots that are actually good.

"An Enchanted Voyage"
love reflects emotion embraced by motivating force
a visual crystal ball evokes journey through endless Time
upon a magic carpet floating guided by heartfelt course.
stars whisper in midnight canopy twinkling soft chime
toward destination to reunite with lost lovers' soul
a visual crystal ball evokes journey through endless Time.
in Fantasy, a tender heart pursues ultimate goal
as love's adventure strives to capture essence known
toward destination to reunite with lost lovers' soul.
the sting of Death refuses to separate powerful feelings sown
an incantation from a mythical book of charms
as love's adventure strives to capture essence known.
thoughts of caressing sweet desire within silky arms
ignite sheer wings absorbing strong love potion spell
an incantation from mythical book of charms.
an enchanted voyage fascinates realm with golden wishing well
love reflects emotion embraced by motivating force
ignite sheer wings absorbing strong love potion spell
upon a magic carpet floating guided by heartfelt course.
"Fantasy Chant"
love power wills
beyond cold grave lives
cast potent magic spell?

ONLY HEALTH AND JOY
I believe You Father God is in control.
Tell me more...
I want to know what else You want me to do;
I want to know who else You want me to know,
I want to know what else You want to reveal to me,
Open my eyes, my ears, my heart and my mind
let the wind the blows whisper to me
let the sunshine tell me still there is hope
let the blooming flowers tell me the possibilities
let the tweeting birds be the notes to alarm me
Ah!!! let it be Father God!
Let Your Holy Spirit lead my feet
Unto You Oh! God I laid my plans,
Father God, look at them
I want to know which of them
brings You more glory and honor.
I want to know which of them
heads me to Your path.
I want to know which of them
draws a smile to Your face.
You know and watch over me everyday,
You know my every thought, my every heartbeat
and my every action,
I believe in whatever I do O Father God,
You are already there for me
You send hosts of angels to guard me
You send the grinning sunshine to invite new hope
Before I put all my effort, time, energy and all
I speak to You anytime of the day
for I believe everytime I speak with my heart
You my Father God is listening kindly to me.
From long prayers, written words,
breath prayers, hymns...
Though there are times,
I can't even find the right words to say.
And so what I do is to just close my eyes,
then there silent tears roll on my cheeks
but I know my Spirit will speak for me
I want more of You and less of me
I believe You are carrying me on this troubled path
Never ever You will let me go
Or never ever You will forsake me
I trust You know me more than myself
My past, present and my future
You knew before I ever began to walk
I believe You are holding me in Your palms
You are fully in control of the events
My win is our joint victory
Hard-pressed because of the circumstances
but I believe You will not give me these
not because You see me a probable failure
rather You gave this to me because I can...
Together with You, I can and I will
We will winWe will win.
Despite these pains and tears
I trust someday when I'll be with You
You will smile at me and tell me
I did well on the task You gave me
And I pass, You will welcome me then
Into Your loving arms
where there are no more tears
where there are no more pains
where there are no more sicknesses
where there are no more sufferings
only health and joy...
