Summer Heat

I do so love the winter cold,
With weather brisk and sweet.
But when I freeze too long,
I start to miss the summer heat.

For when the warmest months arrive
And bring the scorching sun,
It’s time to set your work aside
And start the summer fun.

The beaches fill with people
Seeking peace along the shore.
With white sands and clear blue waters,
They could hardly ask for more.

The laughs of many children
Can be heard throughout the day.
Vacation time has started
And they’re finally free to play.

The scent of fresh cut grass
Will begin to fill the air,
While a hundred ice cream flavors
Will be tasted everywhere.

I do so love the summer heat,
With weather bright and bold.
But when I burn too long…
I start to miss the winter cold.

Passion

Kiss these tender lips
Tremble as the heart flutters
Ardently in love

Fire burns within
Rage erupts in violence
Feel the seething hate

Unending cycle
First a blessing, then a curse
Passion knows no bounds

A Great Man

A good man is noble
In every which way.
He’s kind and he’s generous
Day after day.

A good man is smart,
And he truly is wise.
You can tell what he knows
By the light in his eyes.

A good man is joyful.
He laughs frequently.
Yet he also works hard
For his dear family.

Well, I know a man
Who is all of these things.
A great man who, in my eyes,
Could stand among kings.

For a great man is rare
Among plain good and bad.
And the greatest I know
Is the man I call Dad.


Happy Birthday to my amazing dad! Thank you for being such a great influence in my life! I love you!

Music and Lyrics

If you write a melody
Gentle and sweet,
I’ll write the lyrics
To go with the beat.

Such beautiful music,
The notes you compose.
It touches my heart
When I hear how it flows.

The lyrics I write
Must live up to your sound,
With rhymes about love
And the joy we have found.

So write me a tune
And I’ll write you the words
To a song we’ll create
As a pair of lovebirds.

And our love will shine bright
For the whole world to see
In the music and lyrics
Of our harmony.


Dedicated to my best friend and loving boyfriend. Thank you for enriching my life with your wonderful music. Happy Valentine’s Day! I love you, sweetheart!

Powerless

You used to be so powerful.
You could do whatever you wanted.
You could get away with anything.
Because I let you.

You had such control over me.
Anything you said, I believed.
If you said it wasn’t worth it,
I agreed without thinking.
If you said I should give up,
I would stop on the spot.
If you said I would fail,
I wouldn’t even try.

But I realize now
That you were in my way,
That I could be so much more
Without you to stop me.
Now I’ve finally had enough.
I’m sick of holding back.
I’m tired of being afraid.

So go away, Fear.
Take your empty threats
And vanish into thin air.
You don’t control me anymore.

I’m in charge now.
I’m taking back my life.
You are powerless,
And I, at long last, am free.
