Once again I hear the call
Even tho the day is bleak and cold.
It is here where I find comfort
for my beaten weary soul
...
How could this have happened
Where was the wrong turn
To love thy neighbor
in stone was burn
...
My words may not reach
or caress your heart,
but they come from deep within
for it is only there I make my start
...
Its hard to figure
what makes some tick
or why some self limit
with the forming of a clique
...
This road I am destined to walk
requires faith and strength
There are days I falter
and feel I just can't go the length
...
Many times I have been asked
what I need of love
You mean the kind that is Angel blessed
and sent from above?
...
Forty plus years
this rose began its start
with a love so pure
from two connected hearts
...
Are you sure that what
you are about to say
Once you give it thought
will not force you to pray
...
I stand at my window
as the dawn kisses the earth
The dark void of night
gives way to a new day's birth
...
Oh the inner me
I wish you to shake
What now lies dormant
to once again wake
...
What do Ya think
the chances would be
of me getting you
to come with me
...
If I dropped my bottled letter
into the sea
Would it find it's way
and bring you to me
...
It is times such as this when you are just beyond
I find myself in retreat sitting in the chair.
You know the one that rocked all the babies
to dream filled sleep with a love so fair.
...
Call Of The Sea
Once again I hear the call
Even tho the day is bleak and cold.
It is here where I find comfort
for my beaten weary soul
As I stroll the water's edge
The sand is chilling to my bare feet
The damp wind cuts to the bone
but it is here I choose to retreat
I wish for a warm hand to hold
an ear to just listen.
An open heart to understand
not offering opposition
The rushing tide drowns
the haunting words of my brain
The wind blows away the tears...
The evidence of my pain
His mission for me is not one
that I would have readily chosen.
It now weighs so heavy
leaving my tracks still and frozen
As I walk the lonely shore
I feel His love surround me.
Igniting an inner warmth and
knowing what must be, will be.
I rest in confidence knowing
that He will not take me to it.
With out His loving hand
helping me thru it
So the call of the sea has fallen
once again upon this heart.
It is here my strength regains
allowing another start.
