The road was dark and quite tonight just light of the moon as it trailed down lighting the Pathway. Down a distance I saw a shadow of a man walking behind his shadow. I did not recognize who he was?
His head was down Moving so slowly Like standing still As if he had lost his will? Nowhere bound Where is he going? I said to myself Looking so lonely Needing help? Lost his love? Is his lover gone? Did he blow his chance? No more romance? Endless love? Last dance? As he passed bye I heard him sigh She’s gone It’s over Is that what you want? I answered Clopin Clopant ******************************** “Don’t burn your opportunities for a temporary comfort” Amazing quotes
Walking in her shadow Wherever we may go To gather her attention While I sprinkle her heart With patience and kindness Pleasant words I have spoken To gently urge her to notice me How do you influence a heart? When the heart does not see How do you persuade a heart? When the heart does not hear How do you cause a heart to respond? When it is not dependent on Time to move on? Let her go? Remove the ache Don’t let your heart break ************************************* “Love is composed of a single soul inhabiting two bodies” Aristotle
Time wasted Time in Time out Time up Time was No time like the right time To return to where you belong
Leaving is easy Returning is hard Leaving behind memories Leaving friends and loved ones Time took you away Hard to return That I’ve leaned
Time to give up on your dreams Life is not always what it seems Your heart has to mend Its time must now end It’s not what you want from this life That satisfies But what you need ******************************
“A man travels the world over in search of what he needs And returns home to find it.” George Moore
It is so sad waiting for a reply knowing that your heart may be denied I left it there without a word knowing that it would be heard An answer I cannot dismiss Hanging on our first kiss
I am so glad it’s this way For love’s love is mean to be Two hearts beating in sync A two-soul dependency However Silence is heart breaking No one wants to hear Too much to bear Words not spoken are heard Defining what cannot be had Leaving you knowing that it is okay When you are So glad to be sad **************************************
“It doesn’t matter what you bear. but how you bear it.” Seneca
Does love dwindle as age continues? Does love wither on the vine when faced with time? You are too old that is what you are told No, it is how she makes you feel Then you know that she is real Feelings aside you cannot hide how you feel inside *********************************************
Love is outside of time To die is mortal love God’s love is eternal
“You are never too old to set a new goal or to dream a new dream” C.S.Lewis
How do you qualify for greatness in this world? Is it who you are or what you are? Nothing wrong with the list below Achievement is the way to go But rising to the top, makes you see below
Possessions Position Appearance Human service Education Popularity Talent Sports Philanthropy Etc.etc.etc.
Take your pick add or change the list Do what you wish But a list is just a list It has nothing to do with your character You determine what you must and what is just
Character defines greatness Do you: LIE Cheat Gossip Disgrace others Ruin reputations Show contempt Etc.etc.etc. As you look down below Is this how you reaped what you sowed? Only yourself can change yourself ****************************************** “Do nothing from selfishness or empty conceit but with humility of mind regard one another As more important than yourself Do not merely look out for your personal interests But also for the interests of others” Philippians 2:3-4bs
(1) A sigh and a touch can mean so much A longing embrace a kiss on the face In her heart she could never replace
(2) The Woman She saw him one night and her heart was his Her eyes hypnotized frozen in time A turn of a head and she caught his eye A momentary glance that seem forever She felt her body shake as he came nearer Her thoughts wondering a moment of anxiety Her trembling lips stammering for a word Something to say something to be heard The sound of his voice quickened her heart His coming closer stirred up hidden passion Feelings uncontrollable all inhibition dashed
(3) They talked for hours and then for days The weeks flew by His charms inspired his looks amazed She clung to his every thought his every desire Nothing it seemed would ever quench her heart on fire Every kiss brought a fulfillment of every wish She could not claim herself for herself belonged to him His thoughts her thoughts his needs her needs Lost in a timeless moment nothing would ever exceed BUT! A woman’s intuition can always sense The condition of a man’s disposition
(4) He left while still in love His desires divided his heart torn between He left her behind A memory left to dream
(5) The Man He caught her stare that night His eyes piercing him to the marrow An attraction he could not resist Feelings he could not dismiss He walked toward her His heart leading the way Each step another thought What would he say? His closeness brought a scent of perfume His eyes fixed as if she was the only person in the room Her voice stilled his heart entrapped in the moment set apart They talked for hours and then for days The weeks flew by Her charms inspired her looks amazed She was his he was hers A love defined on every word The touch of her lips on his The touch of her hand on his face an infinite embrace (6) But! Love seems to know when it is time to leave Both departed in different direction taking along each other’s affections On that night love left without a trace (7) No one knows when love will come or if it remains or when it goes All we have is the magic it awakens when two can find The secret to unlock the mysteries that love wishes to bestow Two joined at the heart never ever part For a love’s heart knows nothing of time Time can never replace what love can’t deny For love is stronger than time itself
Of Reaching for scarlet skies Searching for midnight blue In times of sorrow In times of sadness Looking for times of gladness Looking for times of happiness Each constellation tells a tale Of the north star that never fails But ! To find contentment in your life You must
Search far beyond Before life and hope are gone For! On your journey’s end all you have is faith and love To depend up ************************************************ “The world is looking for spectacular happiness While they snub contentment” Doug Larson
On the street of dreams where dreams go to die Stood an old empty book store Curiosity got a hold of me to see more I spotted an old dusty book Laying on the shelf all by itself I enquired about it but was told To read it myself I cannot give you any help I picked it up The binding was torn The pages were yellow and worn I carefully opened the cover of the book A misty odor over took The dedication was no longer visible Just the letters For M.P.T.G Every page had the words” Time Waits..” The last page was missing. I said to myself Has the story ended? Has the play played on? Has the music faded away? Has the poem lost its rhyme? Has romance become nonexistent? Have all things come to an end? You turned the pages I burned the book It said: Your yes is your yes your no is your no There’s no middle ground Time waits for a decision Eternity and forever are not part of time Your time is the only time you have You make your choices count or you will no longer rhyme And so it is Or you keep turning the pages ************************************************** “I said to my soul be still, and wait without hope for hope would be hope for the wrong thing” T.S.Elliot
