Besides Air

Besides air

Water

Besides water

Love

Besides love

Nothing

Nothing else matters

Soul Travel (Freedom)

It was a dream fantastic
A night of magic
The day I flew
Over mountains
And found you

Cries The Wind Chimes

hear the wind chimes
a song so sweet
each time the wind comes by
to visit

once he's gone
she's silent again
and that's when I hear her
the loudest

Cat Envy

I wish I were a cat
content and proud
At peace with the world

I wish I were as wise and see
There's more to life
than meets the eye

I wish I were a cat
who's seen it all
And knows exactly
how the big ball rolls

I wish I were a cat
(If I ever come back!)

A Question of Happiness

I should be happy
with my moments of bliss
Some poeple don't know what it is

I should be happy
with my visions of light
Some people only see the night

I should be happy
with my journey through life
And all that I've realized

I should be happy
with my experience of God
of love
and all that I have

Plaything

The black snake
Hiding in the grass
The black snake
So frightening

The black snake
That wouldn’t let me pass
Was a toy snake
Of a little boy

A toy snake
That was all it was
A toy snake
Left there in the grass

A small toy
Of a little boy
That a little girl
Should have enjoyed

Life's Turn

How can death be near
Does it whisper still
All I hear is the lark singing

How can death be real
Safe within your light
How can death bring back the night

How can death here
Knocking at the door
He should know
I don’t live here anymore

Oh death be gone!
I’ve known you well
Tonight it’s life’s turn

Magic Happens

I've seen magic happen
So I know it does
I feel magic happening
Right now

It may come sudden
And go by quick
But sometimes it lingers
At your very feet

Magic is happening
To me right now
To last as long as
I allow

Yes magic happens
When you're in love
But true magic happens
When you find God
When you become

God Is Erotic (The Thief)

God is erotic
God is sweet
God is a mystery

God is hypnotic
God is strange
And he made love to me

God is quixotic
God is cute
With child-like fantasies

God is a rebel
And can be cruel
But he's been good to me

God is be-nimble
God is be-quick
He plays a mean guitar
