LOVES METAPHOR
Not even the angels above
Could make a better match
So please be with me
And I will make you happy
Such is the depth of my lasting love
Intense and profound
Deeper than the deepest ocean
Enduring till that watery abyss
Dries to sun baked desert
And its powdery form runs
Through your fingers
And loves metaphor is blown away
Like smoke on the wind
I WILL BE AS THE GRANITE ROCK
I will be as the granite rock
In your times of sorrow
I will be the joy in all your yesterdays
And again in your tomorrows
I will love you forever
Until the poets run out of rhyme
Or the sun no longer shines
I will love you till the end of time
I AM NO SUPERMAN
I am no superman
No man of steel,
I am not super human
Not endowed with special powers
I have no heart of stone
Nor feet of clay
I am human
Prick my finger, see me bleed
I am no angel
Nor am I devil
I am not inhuman
Not devoid of emotion
I am just a man
Ordinary, average
Unremarkable
With hopes and dreams
Plans and aspirations
And a heart to give
When I meet her
WHETHER OR WHEN
Whether plain and frumpy
Or even cross and grumpy
Whether fat or skinny
In a long dress or a mini
Whether sober or tipsy
From New York or Poughkeepsie
On green grass or on clover
Perhaps on a train from Dover
Who, where, how is a way to begin
But what I want to know is when
When is the burning question
That’s affecting my digestion
When will I discover
Who will be my lover?
THE LIGHT WENT FROM THE WORLD
The light went from the world
When our love came to an end
I lost everything of worth
My lover, confident and friend
At the moment we discovered
Our love had simply lost its spark
Like the switching of a light switch
My whole world went dark.
A WORLD OF LOVE
When I walk with you
Through the woods and hills
Just you and I together
The real world disappears
Melts away like a dream
In the cold light of day
That you just can’t quite remember
We avoid the other walkers
Such is our greed for each other
That we jealously guard our company
We are in love
Though we speak of it reluctantly
Lest we break the spell
So we embrace together
In our special world
Cocooned from the real world
By our close proximity
Just you and I
And that is all the world we need
Not even the angels above
Could make a better match
So please be with me
And I will make you happy
Such is the depth of my lasting love
Intense and profound
Deeper than the deepest ocean
Enduring till that watery abyss
Dries to sun baked desert
And its powdery form runs
Through your fingers
And loves metaphor is blown away
Like smoke on the wind

I will be the joy in all your yesterdays
And again in your tomorrows
I will love you forever
