Freedom the Song I Bring


















Freedom, freedom, freedom

Catching a ride on a runaway train
it's time  for you and I to change
it's time for you and I to re-arrange
together we can break the chain

freedom ..is the song I bring
lift our voices let us sing
freedom..is the song I bring

liberty isn't found in an aluminum can
liberty isn't sold at the corner store
liberty is something worth fighting for
liberty is something men & women die for

it's time for us to heal
it's  time for us to feel
need to break these chains

freedom..is the song I bring
lift our voices let us sing
freedom..is the song I bring

liberty isn't found in an aluminum can
liberty isn't sold at the corner store
liberty is something worth fighting for
liberty is something men & women die for

it's time for us to love
it's time for us to shine above
need to break these chains

freedom..is the song I bring
lift our  voices let us sing
freedom..is the song I bring

it's time  for you and I to change
it's time for you and I to re-arrange
together we can break the chains

freedom, freedom, freedom
  freedom, freedom, freedom
    we're dreaming of freedom

Mystical Encounter
















I gaze with admiration
upon your natural beauty
a creature of water
   earth
     & air

pausing in twilight hours
reflections of liminality
that space between
here & there
one foot on land
  & the other in water
   point of transition

and I wonder can I cross
that threshold with you...

I watch you in stillness
blending with green fronds
standing in the shallow end
times seems to stand still

in solitude unraveling
mysteries through meditation
you carry messages of wisdom
be patience in the journey

and I wonder how many marshes
must I wade through in life...

you sense my presence
yet, allow me this moment
as you might speak to my heart
guiding me to new understanding

in humility, I silently give thanks
for the gift of true friendship
within your wings I find comfort
air suddenly shifts, you take flight

and I wonder am I ready to fly
to soar unknown heights...

gliding over silver waters
I hear your mystical song
ripples of energy fill the air
and I realize time is "now"

Monsoon Approaching

Monsoon rapidly approaching
   Onslaught of waves we ride
     Nimbus clouds merging together
       Shattering our reality into pieces
         Our bodies caught in torrential rain
           Overlapping clinging to each other
             Night leaves us breathless

Tuning to the frequency of Love











I choose the frequency of love
tuning the chakra of my heart
aligning with the stars above

traveling on wings of a dove
vibrations signal a fresh start
I choose the frequency of love

it is you, I am thinking of
music an expression of art
aligning with the stars above

heaven & earth fit like a glove
lighting the sky, a fiery dart
I choose the frequency of love

it is you, I am dreaming of
exploration without a chart
aligning with the stars above

stardust is what we are made of
may rays of light, never depart
I choose the frequency of love
aligning with the stars above

Long Distance Call



image by Sarolta Ban

your voice
long distance call
one on one connection
whispering across the meadow
I speak
~
your words
touching my heart
lying amidst daisies
plucking each petal of softness
sighing
~
 hello
reaching for you
across the distant miles
together we communicate
as one 
~
calling
heavenly clouds
intertwining our thoughts
receiving hidden messages
we talk

Keys of Black & White


















baby, I read your notes
as you played on black & white keys
catching a high in your melody
on a rose covered float

your words music to my ears
speaking in a tongue,  I understand
lost in a gentle shower of tears
petals fall in a rose covered land

harmony between the sheets

fingers  striking various chords
pounding rhythm  of my heart beat
angels dance in the house of lords
messages of love bittersweet

baby, I read your notes
as you played on black & white keys
catching a high in your melody
on a rose covered float

harmony between the sheets
