The wind bit me in the neck
whipped my face with chilly force
ignoring it was fruitless
and so I changed my course;
...
My heart is yours alone Lord
do with it what you will
I eat Your living word
of thirst I drink my fill.
...
Before you, there was but nothing
just chance and restless wanderings
empty promises and tragic sorrow
over ordinary, silly, mundane things.
...
We weren't meant to live forever,
we're here today and gone tomorrow;
Father Time has pulled his lever,
enter now, the grief and sorrow.
...
Crimson was the color of the dress you wore,
the night we danced, out on the square;
the moon was glowing in the sky,
the breeze caressed your auburn hair.
...
Will you love me when I'm old and gray?
when my hairline is receding?
will you flee or will you stay,
when Viagra I'll be needing?
...
This autumn day is changing,
there's rain in pregnant clouds;
the valleys in the early morn,
are enclosed in somber shrouds.
...
Once an ancient volcano, jutting in the air,
now just cacti and pronghorns wander there;
the morning cool and sunny, no need of talk,
we exit from the car and then, begin our walk.
...
Cotton, floating on the breeze,
falling, gently in the air;
'neath a canopy of trees,
in skies so blue and bare.
...
We crunched the burrs
underneath our feet -
out in the open field
the smell of marsh was sweet.
...
