EVERY CORNER OF THE WORLD (15)
From the Anatolian salt springs
To Lake Victoria and the falls
From Mount St Helens volcano
To where the Pacific Ocean calls
Searching every corner of the world
Looking for one who enthrals
I LOVE YOU BY ANY MEASURE # 7
I love you by any measure
You might wish to use
But I don’t know how to express
The way I feel about you
And the affect you have on me
So I hope this gives you a clue
If I blew a single kiss
Into a typhoon
Only when they found it
Would I stop loving you
IF I HAD ONLY KNOWN # 2
If I had only known
It would be the last time
I would see you
Walk out the door
I would have
Called you back
And hugged and kissed
You even more
WE WALKED ALONG THE SHORE
We walked along the shore
As the sunset was at its death
As the breeze caressed your hair
And I was jealous of its breath
WE SAT COOLLY IN THE SHADE
We sat coolly in the shade
Of a maple tree
enjoying our picnic
And freshly brewed tea
Days of innocence
When our spirits were free
And I proposed and then
You and I became we
THE LAST LONG HOUR OF AUTUMN
It was late autumn,
The season was dying
When she sat at his bedside
Holding his hand
And quietly crying
As she spent that long last hour
Saying her final goodbye
SENT FROM THE HEAVENS ABOVE
Sent from the heavens above
An unseen arbiter of love
To help the lovers choose
And with introductions done
The angel ascends
THE BEES ARE BUSY ON THE MOOR
The bees are busy on the moor
Among the purple heather
The birds are on the wing
Enjoying the clement weather
The most perfect place
For we two birds of a feather
But it holds no pleasure
Now we are no longer together
