Afraid
To ask her for a date
Afraid that she might say ~ Yes!
If she does, what will I do,
where will we go ~
I am so shy, that perhaps I’ll melt
A quiet dinner, a night out
For if she does, I’ll want to shout
I wish we could dance the whole night thru
Perhaps, we’d walk or talk and fill a book
Oh! Please don’t give me that loving look
For if you do, I know I’ll care and I will fall in love with you
Oh! She has such loving eyes with ravishing lips that want to be kissed
My poor heart just skipped & missed a beat
Just to be with her is such a special treat
The night is over, the date is too
I wonder if I should softly kiss her lips
the way I want to do ~
I am not brave enough to ask her for another date
Do you think she wants me to
~ would you ~

I'm going to see you in my electric dreams
In this multi dimensional universe
Among the many lucky stars
I'll find you where ever you are
There is no place for mistakes
No data error or malfunctions
As long as you chat with me
In whatever social media
In this world of internet wonders
Nothing surprise me anymore
You are the only one for me
Nothing else really matters

Sweet breathtaking gasps
she was born under
a pink
soft moon
amazing beautiful
touching upon
the softest clouds
A blushing
angel landing
rejoicing choirs
chants rolling out
one cotton carpet
inside the heart
opening up
softest golden feelings
One voice
sweetly singing
so very softly
in warm gentleness
with a tenderness
falling under
a magic spell
Floating little petals
silently inside emotions
enchanting out magically
sweetest love singing
in your voice
blowing out
the candles
holding a dream
Dancing inside
skipping heartbeats
echoing flutters
of tiny wings
sparkling one star
lights up a diamond
dazzling within
the mirrors
This soul flying
lighthearted striking
one glance
first sight love
uniting with
the spirits
blinking a star
You my love
who forever touches
gently in
the sweetest center
impregnated by
your beauty
born loving
inside the heart
an angel

Of all the thoughts there may be,
The fairest far, is of coloured thee,
That paint the hours of fitful slumber,
To quell the heart's pulsating thunder,
That echo chaos through dark night,
But thoughts of thee, sweet dreams invite,
Soft as, candle lights low lit tapers,
Pure as vellums uninked papers,
Sweet moments devoid of pain,
When ensconced in aching arms again,
Sweet re-occurring endless dreams,
As an artist paints with coloured extremes,
Each air of breathing bliss,
Each sigh a whispered kiss,
That no tyrant may eclipse,
The issued voice from softest lips,
Is music that to dull silence bring,
As the nightingale is to Spring,
Fills my ears with fragrant scent,
That to spicy East perfumes lent,
Retrace the hours of potency,
Thy absence, as an untamed gale,
Such this living void, a mournful tale,
When emptiness pains me so,
Dreams the food of all my woe,
A darkened world without light,
And eyes deprived of vision's sight,
As if Winter's frost has fast begun,
To slay Summer's joyous sun,
Love's voice is but ever near,
Whose softer sounds I constant hear,
I need not far traversing sail,
To hear my own sweet nightingale.

One last Throw of the Dice
Hayden scans the terrain, .. once again
For the posse, and Sheriff Dan Blaine
Stetson pulled low against the morning sun
As he reaches for his sixgun..
Spins the cylinder,and adds a fresh round
Then holsters the colt, and ties it down.
Next, he checks the Winchester and the small twenty two
Before heading over to saddle his fateful old Blue..
We got some hard riding to do today boy,.he says
As he pats the neck of that big old grey
The horse turns and looks up from his grazing
With a nickering sound,as he welcomes Hayden
When hes finished,. he opens the right saddlebag
Where under spare shirts, lies his ill-gotten swag
Twenty five thousand dollars in old used bills
The answer to all those dreams unfullfilled
Hey, tonight we will be living it up old boy
Says Hayden, with a whoop of joy..
Yep,.he had no qualms about accepting alms
From the banking fraternity..
Especially if it helped him in his quest
For a new identity.
Soon now, he would be embarking
On that short sprint to paradise
Yeah,..one last throw,..of his lucky dice.
He pours the remaining dregs into his coffee cup
Then kicks over the dying embers,
And starts to sup..
Guess ive sure earned that loot by now,. he muses
Two years breaking rocks, and ive still got the bruises
That,.. and living in a filthy cage..
With nothing to do but dream,.. about Eagle lake
And those early days, and wondering what might have been,
Had I stayed.....
Would I have been a storekeeper, like my old man ?
Or perhaps a blacksmith,..or maybe a preacherman
Alas,.. my obsession with guns, and tales of
Derring-do..,ensured
No such ideas,would ensue
Truth is,that place was choking me
With its misguided rules and that small town mentality
I remember, how i couldn't wait, till I was old enough
To grab that stage,.. and head west..
Where I vowed,..never again.. to be called second best....
Hayden continues to sup his coffee,
As his thoughts go back to those early times
While keeping watch for posse signs.
He remembers the excitement of those wild west towns
And how he once enjoyed those sights and sounds
Fort worth,Tomestone,and Abilene
Deadwood and Dodge...Reckless and mean
Overflowing with Cowboys,.. with money to burn
And wild women and gamblers at every turn
Lawless,restless, whiskey soaked bars
Where life could be lost on the turn of a card
It hadent been long before he was forced
To use his gun....
And he only winged that drunken bum
But it started him on the road as a hired gun
And later on,..as a desperado on the run
Yeah, for a while it had been high adventure,
It was fun..
But in time he came to despise that reputation hed won
As he tried to stay one step ahead of the law
Whilst dealing with all the young punks and the fast draws...

looking towards
a misty mountain
jewel fingers
paints your vision
into thoughts
i just
cannot princess
for the life stop
thinking about
you baby
one cloud eclipses
a sun
warm deep rays
glows inside
the very heart
of this mountain
sweeping warm
love weeping
willow leaves caressing
falling drops
of dew
missing you
like crazy
colouring rainbows
feelings fall within
endearing emotions
sings sacred
unto these eyes
speaking from
this soul
in bowling
a heart over
lifting one host
bewitching with wings
enchanting beauty
floating magic
outside in
this world
kisses deeply
lips wave
inside an ocean
salt of the earth
whispering whistles
silent winds
landing on
a treasure

You're a film star
to these naked crazy Irish eyes
smiling in that forever
beautiful sings out sweetly you
Take that walk with me and see
praying to give you paradise of dreams
leaving a golden warm smile
wrapped up softly under you're pillow
To touch in the gentleness of an angels hand
purity of never ending bliss
Dancing inside intoxicated with the spirits
lighting up a star
trailing in the wish of vision
One prays in happiness
magically granting dreams wishes
whisked away enchanting dancing souls
sprinkling upon a sea of air
rainbow mist bouquets your beauty complete

Most beautiful honey
deep inside the pot
sweetly stirring thoughts
feelings velvet satin fluttering soft
touching sweetly emotions smile
Breathing in the fresh morning air
misty capped mountains speak
echoing winds carries
deep inside a faraway treasure
brushing across each warm skipping beat
falling dew upon the ground
thinking of you as an amazing dream
Spirit of your beauty flies with me
dancing warm waves upon this soul
within the loving you
Paradise on distant sands
golden in a faraway land
across many distant seas
I lay my heart
upon the sands
just for you my love
Good morning most beautiful
is when you smile

When you have no one to talk to
When you can see nothing around you
When time gets tough when you feel blue
When troubles are many and you can't get through
Whenever you don’t know what to do
Please look above the sky
You’ll see a glistening sign
I’ll be there for you
I’ll be your moon
I’ll keep shining for you every night
I may not be there (with you) now but soon I might
When you have tears in your eyes
When you have lost your smiles
When you have no one cares
When you have had nightmares
Whenever you think life is unfair
Please look above the sky
You’ll see a gleaming sign
I’ll be there for you
I’ll be your moon
I’ll keep shining for you every night
I’ll light up your quiet longest night
I’ll brighten up your scariest dream
Embrace you with love diminish your scream
I’ll be your moon
I’ll be with you every night
Never be too far though you may out of my sight
Always close in my heart you're my only knight
I’ll be your moon
One day we’ll reach each other soon
+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+
..
So, darling can I be your 'Moon'?

walking this path
eyes washed
in fallen treasure
ingrowing droplets
deep within
one's mind
in distant memory
looking at life
a mirror
through a looking glass
the inner soul
the voice ignored
spelling
a message
to lie
treachery
in colour
from the soul
my heart's grave
marked upon vision
the mist rising
walking to the crossroads
sun kissed sparkle
in a beautiful
rainbow
i will
love again
