The Sea Always Flows
~The sea always flows.
Green and blue,
turquoise too.
The sea always flows.
Rivers and streams
sail like dreams.
The sea always flows.
Canals and the ocean
in constant motion.
The sea always flows.
Rowing boats and sailing ships
among the gray dinghies which often flip.
The sea always flows.
Green and blue,
turquoise too.
The sea always flows~
~Give me thy hand, dear friend, and
let me take thee
Into my palace-home and garden fair,
Beside me follow close, ah, it will make thee
Still dearer, sweetest friend, to see thee
there.
Give me thy hand, dear friend, and let me
show thee
The peaceful resting places in the shade,
Where the stream, flowing pleasantly below
thee,
Stills each unquiet thought the day has made.
No, no, dear friend, my palace-home is
lonely,
No hand but mine may pluck the flowers there,
And, since for me they bud and blossom only,
Thou canst not tell me that they are not
fair.~
~Whenever I see moonlight
I always want you near
So we can share the beauty
When radiance appears
A glowing gentle presence
Of light upon your face
That dances with the embers
A fire that's embraced
You are my special moonbeam
You shine from way above
The presence of your fire
That warms me with such love
A star that sparkles brightly
That casts a thousand lights
Upon my heart forever
A spark that love ignites.~
~As I swam in the salty ocean
I saw a seagull flying by
The sun was shining brightly
A rainbow in the sky
I sat there so long just gazing
As the waves washed on the sand
But when the tide had ebbed
The sight was more than grand
The red sun slowly setting
To light another land
Oh how I love the smell of the salty
ocean
Made my heart expand, then
I knew that someone somewhere
Was waiting for the sun
For to start their today, which was my
yesterday
But my tomorrow yet to come~
Mermaid's Kiss
~I was lying in a dream I'd mentioned
Floating through some wilderness
Dreaming in the dream I guess
Being touched by unseen tenderness
I was drifting in some new dimension
Guided by my lovers hand
Lifted though this unknown land
Settled gently on the sand
This palce was not infused with reason
Truth, I felt, infused my soul
The love that touched me in control
Couldn't ask but knew I had to know
Teach me how to love another
It is my deepest, deepest wish
Touch me with the truth of giving
Love me with a mermaid's kiss
The water seemed to sense my yearning
Motioning for me to come
I couldn't tell to where or from
I only knew what must be done
It's motion kept me slowly turning
She drew me to her breast
With a kiss and soft caress
She whispered now, I answered yes
She entranced me in a love so truthful
I can only show you weakly
How she touched me so completely
Angelically and sweetly
She guides me still, I feel her breath
Sounds strange but there is truth in this
The greatest knowledge, the greatest gift
Is passed within a mermaid's kiss
I was lying in a dream I'd mentioned
Being touched by unseen tenderness
