Once

A sadness lies

"Once" with you

It's blue, and follows the moon

And dips behind riverbeds

Just to remember what she thought

On the perhaps, she knew

The shadow meets her

In between

The gray and whites

And, gives a little, at the seams

She side steps rain and sleet

The brisk of cold and knees that grow weak

She does it all,

Just to get back to you

She does it all,

Just to remember

What's really true.

Sparkle Enchantingly

Independence is beauty
Strength radiates

Standing alone builds character
Loyalty and sacrifices are gifts you readily make

Everyday you grow younger
Your steps are taken with greater ease

I see the bounce in your step extend, lighter
I see the sparkle in your eye dance more enchantingly

And, no matter how many times I have to remind you
I will tell you as if you never knew

There is nothing more incredible
Nothing more beautiful that I have ever seen

Than the glow of your spirit

And how your dreams magically combine

To fit perfectly with mine.

A Whisper of Today

You smiled at me today

And, I whispered a reply

You danced beside me
And, my eyes sparkled
Brighter than ever before

I dipped and swayed
Mesmerized by the soft shape
Of your shadow

Your path is constant and divine
And my thoughts are filled with dreams

Wishing you were mine.
