Lullaby

Love, lay down your head
And hear the sighing seas
Of naked crimson in the sheets
The waning sun agrees

The land unfolds its blanket
of warm and dark in me
With this lullaby for quiet
I bribe the birds in every tree

A harvest moon fades
Pushing light behind the breeze
Tomorrow we move again
The honey and the bees

So kiss goodnight, Love
and lay down close to me
Loose our thoughts in slumber
Find our dreams in we.

Sleep within this shelter made
of love a guarantee
Wear a promise �round your neck
A life, a home, a key.

For M

Road lays out in miles
across seemingly endless land.
Distance yawns between you, love
and my outstretched hand.

Days for your voice to reach me
when you call out my name.
Without your smile each morning
the sun never shines the same.

Over mountains, rivers and lakes
I wait for you to bridge the gaps
Swim the rivers and the lake
Walk across the snowy caps.

To beat the miles you must recall
to love when I'm not there
Kiss the rain when it falls,
breath the wind like it's my air

Feel the sun like my embrace
Watch the moon glow like my eyes
Know it's love and not proximity
that truly binds the ties.

So though the miles seem daunting
and the days creep slowly by
We will be together again
and greet each other with a sigh.

Remember, remember this

Think of your wish.
Remember, remember this.
See nature at your doorstep
With a hunger to ask for more.
Know that sunrises are more precious
when you tend to wake-up late.
Believe that belly-laughs are powerful
Enough to break down walls.
Embrace your large family tightly.
All are brothers, summer sisters now.
Understand that love is never waning
as you give it free as breath.
Hold on to this in those dark nights,
Being so far from this home.
When the questions seal your lips
Think of your wish.
Remember, remember this.
