The Princess of Tides 4/15/93
Long ago and far away
Move the ebbs and floods
We know today

There is a guide who comes to me
The Princess of Tides
A fair lady who sees

Answers lie in her paradigm
We will change
In time in time


Follow Your Heart 6/18/93
standing beside bolts of light
splitting darkness and bright white
i'm not afraid of whats ahead
fun excitement romance the thread

walk with me
i understand
we are free
take my hand

i know more than today
wisdom comes from stars of ol
the dust of the universe
sprinkled for eons on our soul

walk with me
i understand
we are free
take my hand just enjoy today
i'll watch out for tomorrow
while life flows through you & me
i'll lead you follow


Fire & Ice 6/93
on the edge of my time
two forces touch me
bending a straight line
touching emotions in me

touch me
i'm chillin
touch me
i'm burnin

where i'm at
living in between
fire & ice
two extremes

where would i be
without you
casting light
shinning through

touch me
i'm chillin
touch me
i'm burnin

with you touching me
i won't be
frozen in time
walking the straight line


Two Eternities 6/20/93
i saw it today
in a dream
before and after
we live between

these words are for
you and me
here and now
they're not part of eternity

its forever
its dark
its deep
it leaves me breathless

moving and still
way deep

a space in time
given to us
make the most its big
i'm scared a space in time
we're in between standing on the edge of eternity
changes in me
two eternities step right up
look over the edge we are two passing shooting stars
what are the chances of us sharing a breath
life love
we don't have much time
to give back what goes beyond is
where time is
nothing and everything make the most
of this short time
be good
that fits what ever we do
will it change
eternity you can't change


Heat of Night 7/15/93
heat of night
hearts wild with desire
we become one
i melt on fire

children of night
exploring each other
we share a rythm
we melt together

its easy to love you
our love is so good
i just want to make you
feel so good

wild is your touch
exciting me
thoughts drifting to passion
exciting you

wild for your excitement
exciting me
thoughts drifting to sensation
exciting you

my desire
to touch you
an eternity in heaven
one night with you


Red Morning in Castro 9/28/93
gold sand
blue water blue
sitting alone on the beach
my wildest dreams were with you

now there's you to sit by me
now i'm living my dreams beside you

red and orange greet us together
oh morning in castro
feel my love touch you
like the sun through the window

a white washed landscape during the day
degas lights the afternoon
then sprinkled with embers of the night
shared only by your moon
our memories... etched by the light

let me whisper in your ear
i love you
like the sound of coastal waves whispering to the world
i love you
nature has a conscience
its wonderful to share with you


Passion 10/18/93
my bodys on a mission
as i touch you
a mission to melt in passion

a door has opened for passion in you
greet passion forever
let passion be you

you've taken me higher
than this dimension
a place of joy forever

another dimension
touched before in our dreams
a place beyond description

joys of wildest dreams
oh to know the passion
its been real beyond our dreams

feeling the passion
forever
sharing the passion
together

Where is Love 4/18/94
in my arms
asleep at night

our hearts
sharing love
in the night

when its dark
I'm guided by
your love light

love wakes me up
in the morning
with a smile

does love have
a destination
or is our
destination
love


ISO 6/29/96
in search of
a heart wild with desire
with room for love
to set on fire best friends by day
fire by night
sharing our way
love burns bright we can start slow
exploring each other
letting our friendship grow
patient as lovers he's a man
of truth and honor
she's a woman
of free spirit and candor set love free
let passion find you
a princess for me
a prince for you


Passion 7/18/96
passion creates room for love
limitless space
like heaven above
passion sung by beauty and heart
your lead
from the start dreams of passion never wake me up
unless its you saying
get up get up
sub and conscious both agree
you melt the soul
inside of me you have created this passion in me
one touch of course
has set me free
me, I want nothing more
to free passion in you
a love like none before why does my heart feel so good?
passion of course
with you understood
and why does my body feel so good?
its you again
touching me like no one else could take me away and set me free
night and day
a passionate journey
I dream of passion together
day and night
forever


Lula Lula 8/11/96
lula lula
hold my hand kiss my cheek
a moment in time
make me laugh with just a wink friends friends
so many ways
at least one new one
each every day life life

shared in person
and miles from thee lula lula
ask not

and hold my hand Lula Grace Carmichael 1900-1996.

Wonder 4/4/97
what I wonder when we’re apart
soft and wispy thoughts drifting together
sweet warm and friendly thoughts feel so good
making me smile and feel complete
challenging thoughts that make me wonder
to grow
and make my day into another
thoughts of wonderful and beautiful Belén
these thoughts that fill my day


Tears 5/11/97
dear Belén
the sweet things you do
sweet Belén
sitting here thinking of you do you ever wonder
where all the sweet things in life have gone
tell the world
it’s right here next to me of course there’s plenty to go around, but
you can’t miss the sweetness right here
that fills my days with a smile
and a tear
thinking about something nice
you do for this world
and especially me a tear melts as it falls down my cheek
tears of joy feel so good
cast thinking of you
cast for you just being you
cast to this world
with positive energy encircling you make me laugh
make me giggle
do something nice
make the tears melt down my cheek
tears of joy
cast thinking of you
the sweet things you do
sweet woman walk this earth
with a positive energy encircling you


Zeek o Zeek 1/7/97
i see you lying in the fallen leaves
you too have fallen with the leaves a creature so meek
my best friend
every ones best friend
gentle friendly zeek so many smile just seeing you
wanting to touch you
touching you
soft warm gentle
meek destiny parts no ways
joy and sorrow
we part our ways know that i have loved you
as you have loved me
love prevails
as we part our ways love for you o zeek o zeek


Cherokee Poem 9/14/00
I am Cherokee
I speak soft
I walk on rock
I am humble
I can laugh at myself
I love the grass
I love the birds
I love the flowers
I love the tundra
I am one with the meadow
I am one with the great spirit
I am Cherokee
