After Loving You

The Blue Vineyard Of Voo Shining Stone: Cat Sommelier

The Blue Vineyard Of Voo Shining Stone: Cat Sommelier:  

Love, Like A Bird

 

Love, Like A Bird

I found some love in a world of lovelessness

It tumbled at my feet like a bird out of a nest

I picked it up and held it in my hand

It spoke to me but I didn't understand.

So I took it home and put it in my room

With lots of sun and space to help it bloom

I tended it and mended it's broken wing

And after many days, I heard it sing.

Never having heard a song of love

I wondered what this unknown thing was made of

And soon the wondrous marvel, with my aid

Began to find it's strength there as we played.

It hung about my shoulders happily

And sang and kept it's trusting eyes on me

And through the days and nights with stars above

A world once loveless there, we fell in love.

And love taught me so much I never knew

How to know the false from what was true

How to tell the flatteries from charms

And captivated me within it's arms.

Each day I woke in joy and rose in bliss

Hungry for love's touch and for it's kiss

Tearing down the walls around my heart

I let my fear and loneliness depart.

Who knows what love is truly or can be

A mountain's height or depth of silver sea 

Unbridled passion or a sweet embrace

Love changes form and often times, it's face.

We lived and loved like people ought to live

Giving love like lovers ought to give

No thought had I that it would ever end

That I would lose my lover and my friend.

I danced with it in joy around the room

So unaware of shadow or of gloom

The windows opened wide on that bright day

And when I wasn't looking, my love just flew away.

Finishing Touches

 

What If

What if I

And what if you

Took a lie

And made it true?

What if one day

And what if they

Gave back to us

What they took away?

What if, what if

If you and me

Shared all the love

There'll ever be?

And what if you

And what if I

Could stop not caring

And dare to try?

What if they're real

The things that seem

So real in fantasy

And outside dream?

What if we wake

To a bright new morn

That love creates

And be reborn?

What if this woman

What if this man

Become one from two

If you take my hand?

What if's the question

And the heavy blow

But if you don't answer

We'll never know.

What if.........................?

See The Love She Found In Me

 

Dreamer

 Dreamer

Farther shores that exist in dreams

Call to his heart

Here in this life of complicated nonsense,

Old magazines, five dollar cups of coffee

And pop culture that mostly pops

But is not cultured.

When morning comes, he has not slept

But sits, still dreaming of a plan

To not make a plan

To be spontaneous in an unarranged

Detailed sort of arrangement

Hidden to the eyelids of the masses

And unheard of by the ears of conformed

 Genius claiming idiots in their billionaire boardrooms.

Music? What is that? It is his heart's blood

It is his heart's beat.  It is his soul's rush

It is his life, his love, his touch from divinity

His sanity............................

Now and then he slips into the night, still dreaming

And down the streets in rhythm walking fast

And singing low, listening to the guitar in his head

The piano solo in  his mind

Writing words that come together of their own accord

And in the writing down of those words

Heal him in some sweet mysterious way

That nothing else can and that nothing else ever will.

He longs to be invisible but needs the world

To see him as he is

And what he is is a dreamer in a dreamless world

A tough and tender warrior in a place of tiny phones

And I-Podded computer generated popcorn  pathos

Churned into a butter that won't melt and eyes that won't meet

And hearts that won't love and rain that won't fall

Until his hands touch those ivory keys and pluck those silver strings

That call out silently with their little voices, beckoning him back

No matter where he walks and no matter how far he runs.

The music calls him but it won't wait...............

It must be written. It must be played. It must be sung

Even if his heart is the only heart that ever hears it

Even if his tongue alone will taste the words

He is a dreamer and his music is the dream.

Just In Case.......in memory of 911

 

Just In Case

Just in case tomorrow never comes

Just in case the sun forgets to shine

Just in case the world is drowned in tears

I'm writing this to say what's on my mind.

I hope you all have love living inside you

I hope you all have peace within your soul

I hope you all come through the fires now burning

Refined and finished, shining like pure gold.

This life is never promised to the careless

And those that think that this is all there'll be

For when this life ends, be it short or lengthy

That's when you'll walk into eternity.

So hug your friends and family 'fore tomorrow

And kneel your knees and pray away your strife

And give your soul to the only One can save it

For holding to this world can't save your life.

Tonight  might be the last night you lay dreaming

Today just may have been your final day

So leave nothing undone that needs the doing

Before the angels carry you away.

The world will never end, the scriptures tell us

But will be formed and shaped and made anew

But just because the earth will live forever

Doesn't mean that it's the same for you.

Over twenty years ago came September the Eleventh

A morning like all others come before

Nobody knew when they awoke that morning

That they would never walk back through their doors.

My heart is full of longing for my Savior

My soul is full of sorrow for mankind

So please tonight, make sure your souls are righteous

And let Love fill your hearts while there's still time.

The Life and Death of the Sun

 

The Life and Death of the Sun

The cold autumn sun

            Is fading so slow,

She's looking for something

            She may never know.

            A room full of darkness

           That she can peek in

That's swept clean of clutter

            By her old friend, the wind.

Blowing steady like memories

           That cannot be seen

           Like the tasting of kisses 

           Like a hot summer's dream.

When the winter creeps in

           And the light crawls away

          Then the owls and the shadows

           To the woods come to play.

          There the sun rests in waiting

           For the night to pass by

          And they hold and caress her

         And she tries not to cry.

        But the sun, like the moon

      Needs to shine to be heard

      Like the growl of the tiger

       And the song of a bird.

     She is lonely in wanting

     And she shivers and sighs

     Watching, yearning for dawning

     With the Earth in her eyes.

     Then, in rushes of morning

     She awakes full of light

     Leaves still falling like teardrops

     From the soft Autumn night.

There ahead lies the Winter

There behind Summer's heat

Spring is only faint memory

And the fall's in retreat.

But the sun seems immortal

Be it cold, hot or rain

And she shines up the darkness

With it's pathos and pain.

Looking for what, she knows not

But she looks evermore

In the morning and noon time

And the dark of the door.

But she's fading in Autumn

Like a leaf in the wind

And the snow, soon will chill her

Till the Spring comes again.

Myths are spun on her shining

Tales are told 'bout her spark

Men believe she's a Ruler

But she follows the dark.

And one day, she will burn out

On that day, no one knows

And the night will reign endless

In the world when she goes.
