Winter's Oath

It is a time to shiver
Be grateful to live
Though skin and bone quiver
Always more to give

Take the time you hold
To learn what is dear
Stand up bold
And winter song do hear

Listen to her quiet
For in your mind she'll toil
Within her crystal sight
Oh how your soul will boil

Come to understand
For at the very last
Blessing in the land
After winters fast

Whispers

Floating on a gentle breeze
Dancing hither to
Floating over whispered seas
Oh so very teasing you

Nightingales sing their song
Whispers floating by
Makes my heart strain and long
To be in your arms as we fly

Oh how strong our hearts beat
Dancing through meadow grass
Like the whispers of pitter pattered feet
Flitting over a lake as smooth as glass

How I wonder when I look into these stars at night
To curl your hair around my finger
To kiss you oh so light
On your cheek with much tender

You are a delight to me you know
The way you make my heart sing
You help me to live and to grow
And see every special thing

Whispers glide upon the breeze
Twisting in and out of crevassed tree
How they whisper to make me see
How much you really mean to me

What My Heart Feels

The gentle embrace of bee to flower
The graceful caress of weather’s shower
A bird sings a lullaby
To each and every passerby
Ti’s what my heart feels when I think of you

The feel of puppy tongue on nose
The Oak, oh how strong it grows
A flower’s sweet fragrant smell
The sound of ringing bell
Ti’s what my heart feels when I think of you

Mountain high and valley fell
The turtle hiding in it’s shell
A rabbit with fluffy tail so white
And Nature in all of it’s wondrous might
Ti’s what my heart feels when I think of you

To grow in wisdom share
To let you know that I care
A song of joyful sound
From a heartbeat deep in the ground
Ti’s what my heart feels when I think of you

To One

A leaf falls
Drifting down on winds embrace
Dancing too and fro
Autumn’s begun
The forest is still
Bated breath and whispered song
A sound only imagined

The beauty
Yellow
Red
Gold mixed with green

A blanket on the ground
Fallen leaves
A crunch of twig
Passersby

Scurrying, scuttling, hiding
Little ones watch from hidden alcoves
A sniffing nose and twitching tail
Is it safe?
Yes

How little we tried
When Love has looked us in the eye
To understand said Love
But still; must we try?
Yes

We are wondering souls
And no one further knows
But love will to what it Will
And no matter what we want,
It will show
That every little thing matters
To One

To Cure Her of Human’s Wrong

Whispers on gentle wind
Whiskers light touch, shivers do send
A melody to you impart
The strings of my heart

Beautiful summer days long
Ringing with a wonderful song
Of waterfall’s cascading grace
Deep in this wondrous place

Nature in all of it’s resplendence
Dancing in winsome silence
To show to you through eloquent eyes
What is beyond her disguise

Let your breath and heart be still
And listen now if you will
To the song of the meadow lark
As it turns to light from dark

If you listen close you will see
How it is meant to be
The closeness of natures embrace
Swaying to her gentle pace

Green light shining through leaf
Will wash away your troubles and your grief
And the ground under your feet
Will hold up a strong stone for your seat

So when nature calls to you in your sleep
To travel her paths of wisdom winding oh so deep
Then enjoy this dream for a while
And let your soul smile

For you are held dear to my heart
And to you my feelings I impart
To show you Nature’s beauty through my songs
And help cure her of human’s wrongs

The Willow

Straight and powerful there she stood
Arms stretched against the wind
Her strength and might oh so good
Strong enough to bend

How the wind did rage
And how it did howl
To bring down she of age
To smite asunder limb and bough

But on she prevailed
Through the tempest oh so fury
Though mightier have failed
And of them earth did bury

So she stood that night
A sentinel to the light
To strengthen all that might
Upon her lay their sight

And there she stands today
A beacon to behold
Never far away
A blessing to be told

The Song

When I sing of marshes sweet
My heart is filled with merriment
When I sing of Merry Meet
I dance with joyful excitement

To be one and one with all
Makes my heart glad
But to be all in one is a ball
And no more to be sad

Live our lives for love
And sing on height
Love is as the dove
Full of strength and might
