We Two Spirits - with audio

Audio Link

Precious lambs float across the sky
Loves tide awakens the sunrise
Golden lines that cannot be traced
Traveling beyond the reaches of thought
Brilliant winds speeding, height and depth
We two spirits, hearts joining
Melting with each breath

To live Again - with audio

audio link

The golden rolling, journeying ball

Rolls along, rolls along



Silently leaving

All behind, all behind



I wish to catch it, to hold it still

Somehow I know, I never will

Never will, hold it still



The leaves of the trees

Pile ever higher, ever higher



The winds blow the ball

That I cannot catch

Evermore, evermore beyond my reach



A thousand places, a thousand times

Falling farther, and further behind



Yet I cannot end my search

For ambition drives the climb

Seeking out a better perch, a better perch



Till mine eyes may see so well

To watch that ball roll over, over the hill



Stepping off the running treadmill

Knowing that the game once played

Has been played, been played so well



To escape that dreary cell

The place of fire, the place of hell



Then to live again as was meant

By the love of the Lily spent

To find the lamb, the lamb who went



To his heaven's gate, his heaven's high

There, to contemplate with affection

His tattered bride, his tattered bride

Gone Is Thy Flight - with audio

 audio link

O magnificent one
Set loose upon
The unseen ether
Above his voice is heard
Soaring ever higher
In the bluest sky
His glory is great
Beauty is his coat

But his fall is wretched
Lying broken
Among the feathers
Gone is thy flight
Where is the might
In the feebleness
Of some memory
Distorted and perverted

None is there
Who love him yet
Or who weep
Over his descent
Prince of heavens
Who rode horizons
To the four points
Mapping curling updrafts

None are left who
Know or care to see
The raptor's journey
Save the Eternal
Who created his climb
Taught him to fly
Lifted him up in
Excellence and freedom

He will not abandon
His beloved creatures
For His judgment
Is pure and perfect
Upon it rests the
Spheres, darkness and light
With the hope of all things
Until creation is made new.

Three Words - with audio

audio link

On the wings of fervent prayer
My love caught me unaware

Come away with me my love
Let me hold you in my arms

Holding hands walking side by side
Dreams and hopes in love are spoken

Shadows flee away from our love
We like doves are lifted by the dawn

Our love is like the Jasmine
Wild, fragrant, and flowering

The red pomegranate speaks of our love
With orange blossoms and nightingale's song

Sun and moon and the starry host above
Together with the Spring must boast of our love

When our eyes meet with kisses sweet,
And loving hearts are joined eternally

Three words with passionate longing pursue
I love you, I love you, I love you.
