When a pale moon lights up the heavens with
a gleaming, incandescent, aura; casting eerie
dancing shadows across the blackness of the
night, and you're alone, afraid---just come to
me!
When a chilling, wintry, wind rustles through
the windswept trees, which stand like towering
sentinels guarding a barren landscape, so cold
and bleak; and a diamond flight of geese on high
paints an unforgettable portrait in the sky, and
you need warmth---just come to me!
When you sit on a beach, looking out to sea, and
watch the rippling, surging, waves rush in; and
the oceans roar, and a breaking, pounding surf
permeates your very being with the power and
glory of nature; and you ride a high of beauty
so deeply felt; and you want to share---just come
to me!
When you see a loved one off at night, leaving
you, a tiny speck, so far behind; as you watch
the airplane, with its colorful, blinking lights
ascending into the darkness until enveloped by
the sky; and you know, deep within, that more
should have been said, or done, too late; for
solace---just come to me!
When life seems too much, and you muse on the
ever present mystery of who you are, and what
you are, and why you're here; and you feel you
just can't cope, you can't do more, can't do it
all; can't understand the confusion in your mind
which makes makes it hard to know which road
is right, which turn to take; for help---just come
to me!
When the morning sings, and the flowers bloom,
and beautiful music fills the air; when you are so
alive, you want to dance, and run, and jump, and
play, and laugh; and see and feel the wondrous
things that happiness can bring within your inner
self; for joy---just come to me!
When you yearn, and want, and long for
someone
else; to touch, to hold, to feel, to love,
to care and
share, and join two souls as one;
to shrink the gulf
that separates, and prove
the perfect union, two
then one;
contentment, and total peace of mind; for
love---just come to me!
