MY MIND BRINGS ME BACK TO YOU
TIME IS SLOWLY WASTING AWAY,
AS MY LIFE TURNS A DARKER SHADE OF BLUE.
AND THE DAYS GO BY SO VERY QUICKLY,
THEN MY MIND, MY MIND BRINGS ME BACK TO YOU.
MY EYES REFLECT THE WORLD AROUND ME,
MANKIND IS SUCH A DIFFERENT HUE.
THINGS ARE SO RAPIDLY CHANGING,
AND YOU, YOU'VE EVEN CHANGED YOUR POINT OF VIEW.
THE WORLD GOES ON AROUND ME,
AND EACH OF US HAVE OUR PLACE.
BUT ME, I DON'T KNOW WHERE I AM,
OF ME, OF MYSELF THERE'S NOT A TRACE.
AS THE REST OF THE WORLD GOES ON BY,
WHY IS IT THAT I STAND STILL?
YOU CAN HELP ME FIND MYSELF
IF YOU, YOU'LL ONLY SAY YOU WILL.
SO AS THE WORLD GOES RACING BY,
AND TIME IT SPEEDS UP TOO.
WHY DO I PAUSE AND THINK,
AND LET MY MIND, MY MIND COME BACK TO YOU?
AS I PAUSE I ASK MYSELF,
JUST WHERE IS MY PLACE?
WHERE YOU ARE, IS WHERE I AM,
I'M LOST, LOST SOMEWHERE IN SPACE.
YOU MUST KNOW HOW I FEEL,
I'M SURE YOU'VE BEEN THERE TOO.
AND AS YOU GO ON THROUGH LIFE,
ALWAYS REMEMBER, REMEMBER MY LOVE FOR YOU IS TRUE.
NO MATTER WHAT THIS LIFE MAY BRING, ANYTIME THAT IT TURNS BLUE,
JUST PAUSE AND LET YOUR MIND REFLECT,
AND JUST KNOW, KNOW I'M THINKING JUST OF YOU.
WHY DOES MY WORLD STAND SO STILL?
WHY HAVE YOU CHANGED SO QUICKLY YOUR VIEW?
IS THERE ANYWAY, ANYONE CAN TELL ME,
WHY MY MIND, MY MIND KEEPS BRINGING ME BACK TO YOU?

Wings of Angels
Love is on the way on the wings of angels
Feel the gentle brush of silver wings
Gently caressing your cheek
Heavenly voices singing
Calling out to you, golden voices
Pure true love of an angel
Heavenly images in the Rainbow
Love on the wings of angels
Feel it filling your heart
Touching your very being
Whispers of memories shared
Songs of what will always be
Glory in being one always
Gentle breezes carry your dreams
Of reunion on the tail of a balloon
Colours lighting up the sky with hope
Dreams that will be
Dream a dream of Angels
And they are there and you touch
Again with whispers of a promise
That will be, reunion.
Love is always on the Wings
Of the angels of the Rainbow.
Always and forever
Around you

Tapestry

One day as I traveled along my life’s path
Three women weaving I happened to see
And I stopped to rest and to watch for a while
As they worked on an intricate tapestry.

As I watched and they wove I began to see
The color of each thread shift and change
And the pattern would alter with the color shift
And the tapestry grew and expanded it’s range.

I continued to watch as they continued to weave
And I saw periodically one a thread would snip
And a small hole would form in the tapestry
And the pattern at that point alter and shift.

But others would take up each thread as snipped
And weave it into a new tapestry
No thread seemed lost for even a moment
The flow to the looms seemed as smooth as can be.

Then one of the three smiled up at me
Sad eyes that seemed tired with age
And without a word she explained the threads
And the intricate tapestry they made.

“Threads cut shorter a short life or child
Longer threads those of ones older
Bright tones for happy moments in life
Dark tones for times sadder and colder”

And I watched the two looms and their tapestries
Amazed both from the same threads were woven
The first intricate patterned in dark and light
The second flawless with beauty unspoken

As a single tear fell she again spoke to me
“We, the Fates, weave for all time the tapestry of life
We weave with life’s threads, the long and the short
Our patterns colored by joy, pain, and strife.”

“The others are angels who lift up each cut thread
To add to their loom with love oh so gently
Then they weave with colors so perfect and lovely
For their tapestry is the perfect eternity.
