begin again

when my world ends
and my soul lifts to a higher place
where rainbows glow
and sadness is long lost
when my heart is silenced
by a soothing calm
where birds sing
a lullaby song
where distance is absent
and love abounds
my soul drifts through rhapsody
the sun warms my space
white doves fly free
and sing with the earth
peaceful quiet prevailes
stillness like my pulse
I reach out to touch the magic
sprinkles of laughter
drift upward
my soul reaches destiny
as my world begins

Dreams Are

Dreams are shattered and lost,
tossed to the angry wind
swept away with the prevailing tide
washed upon the rocks of salvation
dried out by the rays of the sun
drifting with the morning tide
forgotton
disregarded
amended
crumpled like used paper
slips through cracks like dust particles
wrapped in longing and unforgiveness
rolling endlessly down a dead end road
caught by a thread in the debri
of yesterday and tomorrow
forgotton
disregarded
amended
left to face the forces
of a cruel world about to explode
next to dying embers of time
frustration colors the rainbow
salty sea water erodes the foundation
whispers of regret float across the prarie
