On one hoppin’ good night
I sat out with my dear
We drank to sunset red
And kissed into the morn

Another’s charms
I have more love than I could ever use
From she who holds me tightly in her arms
Ask me again and e’er it’s her I’ll choose
I’ll care not for another’s grace and charms
517 – Dry them for you
Your tears
Let me dry them for you
Your scars
Let me heal them for you
Your broken heart
Let me mend it for you
Your hands
Let me hold them
Things versus
Things grow
Things shrink
Things come and go as they please
Things move
Things stretch
Things are there and at once gone
They are not constant
Not strong
Nor grounded
Nor can they be relied upon
In short, they
Are nothing like
You, dear.
Hand in hand
Hold my hand and walk with me
Along the leaf-strewn path
Tell me all you have to tell
I’ll listen, rapt, to you
Teach me ev’ry corner of
Your ever-spinning mind
So I can with patience walk
And understand your tales
Walk with me through darkest night
Where moon and stars don’t shine
Let me take your heart in hand
And soothe its anxious beat
Though I am but human, I
Will love you best I can
Walk now with me; hold my hand
Life we’ll together face
Walk together
Take this walk with me
Along this cobbled road
Come with me and see
The stories yet untold
Let’s forget the past
And walk as partners we
Into a future vast
And full and wild and free
Fullest
These drab walls can’t hold
A lifetime of words
Of love
Of life
Nor can any
No walls
No windows
No ceilings
Could possibly contain
So we turn to nature
Perhaps there
Our wings could spread
Fullest
No life
Full cups
Full coffers
Full shelves
Full drawers
Full pockets
Full closets
But no love
No life at all
Morning’s light
The light
It dances
Across your brow
Your brow is furrowed
It is covered with light
It sparkles in the morning
Reflecting the dawn’s soft red light
You relax your furrowed brow
And you smile back at me
You are unworldly
In morning’s light
You shine bright
Angel
And a day
I’ll hold you
I’ll keep you
I’ll kiss you
I’ll love you
For longer than the universe
Forever and a day
