Choose a timid smile
Releasing hidden hopes
Sharing a heart’s slim beat
Grasp at love’s retreat
Dive into an instant
Where free-falling sorrows mete
The boundaries of today
Melding in the fray
Why not risk it all…
For the chance at even more?
Brave the song’s bright call
The words on tomorrow’s door
Lost in metered colors
Surrendered to the fall
Be the you that beckons
Hear the song’s bright call
Thrill Me Tonight – a song
[verse 1]
Walked into the crowded bar
An end to the unending week
I saw your windblown hair
As you walked in from the street
I wondered what might happen
If I asked to know your name
Hoped in that brave moment
We’d never be the same
I’ve always been a dreamer
But the dream was new tonight
I wondered if you’d save my day
And fill my lonesome night
[chorus]
Thrill me tonight
Fill me tonight
Save me from today
Fill my lonely night
Follow me tonight
I’ll show you where you live
Tell to me your name
And thrill me tonight
[verse 2]
The blur of midday ended
As day turned into night
Into your twilight eyes
Into the promised light
I crossed the crowded place
And found your starlit face
Asked you for your name
Into my night you came
I’ve always been a dreamer
But the dream came true tonight
As day turned into evening
Adorned in your beautiful sight
[chorus]
[verse 3]
We drove into the night
Top down, tunes filled the dark
You touched my tired leg
The night lept through my chest
And then began the rest
Of night’s remembered place
Gazing into starlight
Gazing at your face
The tickled insecurities
Faded into dark
As night fell into silence
And all the world fell stark
[chorus]
[verse 4]
Arriving into silence
We fell to life renewed
And life was newly mobile
Moving into grace
The fire turned to light
As colors bloomed to life
I touched your blooming rose
And kissed your waiting face
Perfection found in wonder
Exploring newfound fates
Alive in newfound wonders
Emptying our plates
[chorus]
[verse 5]
Enlivened imprecisions
As day turned into night
We flew to unknown places
Releasing all old plights
And fire turned to night
And water flowed in peace
Releasing you in silence
Screaming in release
Exploding into glory
I touched your waiting place
Started with a moment
I braved to ask your name
[chorus]
Moments
Serene, flowing, colorful
Brighten
A lone soul
Walking
Quiet destined hues
Subtle waves
Rhythmic, relentless, forever
Soothing, disquieting
Arriving, departing, touching
A lone soul
Quiet destined song
Cool breezes
Change, move, immerse
Flood the senses
Warm
A lone soul
Feeling
Quiet destiny met
Head, heart, joining
Thoughts unique, colliding
As waves relentless
Oceans vast
Greet
A lone soul
Ebbing chaos, flowing quiet
Passion, peace
One
I woke this morning
And felt a gentle breeze
I woke this morning
And heard a bird’s song
You woke this morning
I breathed you a breeze
You woke this morning
I sang a gentle song
I woke this morning
Heard your unspeakable name
I woke this morning
And would never be the same
You woke this morning
I smiled as I called your name
You woke this morning
We will never be the same
I woke this morning
And felt a gentle breeze
I woke this morning
And felt the Spirit’s pull
You woke this morning, child
And caused me to smile in delight
You woke this new morning
What a glorious and wondrous sight

Love and giggles,

Sweet surrendering moments
Filled in our hearts’ golden song
Tempting fresh aura
of your waiting presence
of butterscotch sensations
Smoldering ancient visions
Passion’s heat arriving
in universes exploding new
Taste, touch, feel, know
all that two desire
Vaulted expectations
released wishes
Eternity delivering at truth’s velocity
Two hearts wandering no more
Found in the melody of One great love
