it was but yesterday we met in a dream

It was but yesterday we met in a dream.

You have sung to me in my aloneness,
and I of your longings have built a tower in the sky.

But now our sleep has fled and our dream is over,
and it is no longer dawn.

The noontide is upon us and our half waking has
turned to a fuller day, and we must part.

If in the twilight of memory we should meet once more, we shall
speak again together and you shall sing to me a deeper song.

And if our hands should meet in another dream
we shall build another tower in the sky.

for my little angel

I'll be your root, oh branch out u little one.

the sky is your expanse, reach out to the sun.

spread your sunshine and I'll enjoy your shade.

time goes by yet memories dont fade.

I'll hold every falling leaf, in each a time frozen,

happy moments and some of grief .

every step u take away,the deeper I'll go,

to the heartbeats resounding of the ones before . . .

a new year

time to let go of another year i hold so close,
tender moments, some grief, no remorse.
manifold the days and the year parts,
the ticking clocks versus our beating hearts.

what tomorrow brings i yearn to see,
snuggled in my time wrap i wait with glee.
time s is a measure, should’ nt love be the gauge,
of how much i have lived and not my life in age.

each day at a time, some different some same,
our world is round, we part to meet again ! ! !

an ode to a friend . . .

a lone bird soaring high, blue expanse, miles to go. . .
you belittle the world, caged desires, all the distress before
ruling the skies on your terms, you were the queen. . .
every little task, thing or place , you have been or seen

out of reach, you a step closer to a new dream achieved. . .
boundaries recede, once a scarce life, thus fully lived
Iwatched you glide from a distance, freedom reborn. . .
suddenly you stopped, what cross road were you on,

clipped wings, to the numbness and sadness did you give in?
or a deliberate deed, a planned escapade, your choice to win
a broken link the world below, to return did you yearn. . .
the moment took you over, your mind I never will learn

the sky is still blue, extend through the length, the girth. . .
plunge into the seas, then you rest and embrace the earth
the journey will not stop, soul to soul ,us comrade or foe. . .
alas this is an ode for a dear friend no more :(

Eclipse

an eclipse can shadow the brightest sun . . .
the gloom multiplies as far you run.
so you strive for each day to shine . . .
all of body, soul and mind.

you soar high, you conquer the sky . . .
overcome each rising tide.
you battle forth, you defy and rage on . . .
brazen on each dark side.

how do the numerous thoughts cease . . .
have a momentary relief or freed release.
how do wevpass the darkest hour . . .
scattered souls like the perils afar.

you shut your eyes, you are the dark . . .
a pause and you will see the gleaming path.
like there’s peace when the storm gives way . . .
an eclipse precedes a new day.

You and Me

The night that was . . . how it began, see how far we have reached.
How many moons we have gone past and how many more to defeat.

Vast lands are all I see … our treaded years just you & me
Tough times I seem to forget, kind heart is all I recollect.

Deeds complete, Days gone by, Empathy - only time can bring
Is there a dark side or there exists no such thing.

Life is but a reflection of your self. You see what you want to.
I am truly happy and my happiness lies is in you.

Each moment better than the last. Each day becomes a delightful past.
Our tomorrow is our sweet sunshine, A Beautiful Angel - yours & mine.

Dream on

Eyes wide open, yet dreaming along . . .
Lingering moments, thoughts carry on
If I blink, what if I miss . . .
the gleam, the lustre every second brings

And when I sleep, my dreams compound . . .
Heaps and Leaps onto higher ground
From there I look down and stare . . .
my life, my world unfold out there

Introspect, retrospect, ponder the recourse . . .
all I remember is the moment the pause
The nuances galore, all the chaos within . . .
Past to present , all woven in

This weave is my life, my canvas . . .
each painted memory, all the thoughts that pass
Colors so many, beyond my eyes can see . . .
this window to my soul is my masterpiece

So dream on, start painting your course . . .
this palate of colors is all yours
Elevate your being. yours dreams will juxtapose
when you wake u, the smile in your eyes will show

The journey will end and when the time will come
Its this contentment that will let the soul go

Dream on . . .
