Some ask for great and wondrous things
For golden plates and diamond rings
But I want not for things so fine
Just love and laughter, and some wine
Tag: love
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

Half a heart and half a home
Leave little room for minds to roam
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
More
However often I have lost my way
However many times I’ve given up
However much I’ve wished for a new life
It matters not, now that I’ve so much more.

Forever seems an awful lot
To those who live in doubt
They wonder if they’ll ever have it
Truly figured out
Retracted prayer
Whatever prayers I’ve sent up to the skies
Whatever jealous musings I have pined
Away with them; treat them as pithy lies
I never knew what I, so blessed, would find:
Her.
