I SEND YOU A ROSE

I send you a rose
May its perfume fill your day
A fragrant red rose
Just for you to help you feel gay.

This red rose is a special gift
Given to you from above
To bless you and give you a lift
Sent with special blessings and love.

When you hold the rose in your hand
You will have peace and serenity
And everything will be grand
And when you see it you will think of me.

One final verse before I close
To reiterate I will say
I send you a rose
May its perfume fill your day.

THANK YOU FOR A SPECIAL DAY

Thank you Carmel, My Dear
Thank you for a special day
When we were together
At White Rock by the bay.

Our walk along the track
Past the Rock of White
The cozy little restaurant
Where we dined at night.

The train passing by
An extra special treat
And holding hands all day
That was really neat.

Then to the computer shop
For a special surprise
It brought joy to me
To see the sparkle in your eyes.

Then a short walk alone
Under stars so bright
Before I took you home
And we said good night.

Then to top it off
Just you and me
A special kiss before I left
At 12:03.

May we have many more
Like that very special day
And may we walk together
As we travel life's highway.

SHARING A CONE

A misty evening
A walk in the dark
Along English Bay
And Stanley Park.

Hand in hand
We walk along
Carmel and I
Humming a song.

Walking together
The joy of such fun
Carmel and I
Together as one.

Then finally
Sitting alone
On Dunbar Street
Sharing a cone.

PUT ON A HAPPY FACE

Put on a Happy Face
When you are feeling blue
Pretend you are O.K.
And you will be too.

When depressed or sad
Or feeling a little pain
Put on a Happy Face
And you will be happy again.

Put on a Happy Face
Remember to smile and laugh
And light will lead the way
As you travel on your path.

When you fall behind
And cannot keep your pace
Let the light shine through
Put on a Happy Face.

All you have to do
As you go on your way
Is put on a Happy Face
And it will brighten your day.

When you feel you've done wrong
Pray and ask for grace
Do the best you can
Put on a Happy Face.

Have a sense of humor
Enjoy the human race
Love everyone you meet
Put on a Happy Face.

Recall the Child Within
Let her have her way
Put on a Happy Face
As you travel through the day.

Live your life in joy
Walk in love and light
Put on a Happy Face
As you travel day and night.

Every day of your life
As you travel on your way
Put on a Happy Face
And you will be O.K.

COUNT YOUR MANY BLESSINGS

Count your many blessings
As you travel on your way
Give thanks up above
For your life every day.

Be thankful for your health
Precious and dear
And for your loved ones
Who gather round you near.

Give thanks for your friends
Loyal and true
Who are always there to listen
When you are sad or blue.

Be thankful for the miracles
That occur every day
Count your many blessings
Take time to stop and pray.

Smile and walk with courage
Look fear in the face
Count your many blessings
And you will be blessed with grace.

THE SHOOTING STAR

Twilight time
Staring into the sky
Drifting clouds
Passing by.

Shades of colors
Sun setting in the west
The quiet of Nature
All at rest.

A little down
I'm feeling low
What to do?
Where to go?

Gazing up, my spirits lift
As Father God on high
Sends a sightful gift
A shooting star passes by.

COMPANY FOR A DAY

Rainy day
Spirits low
What to do?
Where to go?

Sitting alone
Looking at the rain
Hearing its sound
On the window pane.

When suddenly
A sound is heard
I listened again
As a kitten purred.

Opening the door
I glanced along the wall
To find the location
Of the kitten call.

Looking around
The rain continued to fall
I saw a small kitten
Curled up in a ball.

Here Kitty, Kitty
I whispered low
As I kept my distance
So she wouldn't go.

Upon hearing my voice
She glanced at me
I sensed her thought
'Should I stay or flee?'

I kept my distance
Hoping she would stay
Because I wanted company
That rainy day.

As I had hoped
She did not retreat
And after a while
She came to my feet.

Shivering and wet
Gentle and meek
Feeling at home
She brushed by my feet.

Together we went inside
As I closed the door
And eye to eye
We lay on the floor.

As if pleased with the attention
She gave a low sigh
As I rubbed her with a towel
Until she was dry.

A saucer of milk
A nibble of food
And she was content
And in a good mood.

After a while
I opened the door
She refused to go
As the rain did pour.

A fragile thing
Yellow and gray
Playful and cuddly
She wanted to stay.

She stayed by my side
All during the day
Keeping me company
Continuously at play.

Preparing for bed
After day light
The kitten wouldn't leave
She stayed for the night.

All during the night
She cuddled close to me
Sleeping on my right
Purring peacefully.

Several times during the night
I awoke to find
Her little kitten face
Pressed close to mine.

In the early morn
I let her out
And later called her
She was no where about.

I did not see her again
That little stray
Who came to me
On a rainy day.

MY FRIEND WAZOO

He came into my life
A short time ago
To brighten my world
And give it a glow.

The largest of the cat tribe
Known for his pride
Serenely and calmly
He sits by my side.

With immense strength
And a powerful roar
He plays like a kitten
With me on the floor.

Friendly and loving
Loyal and true
One of a kind
My friend Wazoo.

I SEND YOU A DOVE

I send you a dove
To stay close by your side
As a messenger of love
To with you abide.

A dove of snow white
With vibrations so true
A marvelous sight
I send to you.

May you journey afar
On the wings of the dove
To dimensions and realms
To spread blessings and love.

And when you return
From that other land
May you lovingly hold
The dove in your hand.

ME AND MY TEDDY BEAR

When I was just a little boy
When I was only three
I sat with my teddy bear
Under the Christmas tree.

Sitting there we could not be seen
By family who were near
As we sang Christmas carols
Me and my teddy bear.

I recall so well those days
When I was young and free
How I went with my brothers
To chop down our Christmas tree.

And the excitement of having teddy near
To open gifts with my family dear
And together sing beneath the tree
Me and my teddy bear.

TWO SWANS AS ONE

Two swans together
Swimming side by side
Loving each other
Exhibiting great pride.

Gliding on the water
Moving with stately grace
Loving each other
With a smile on their face.

Able to fly
Feelings are high
Loving each other
Like you and I.

Two swans as one
Under the sun
Loving each other
Together as one.

MISSING YOU

Sitting at home
Feeling blue
Things on my mind
Missing you.

Thoughts of life
Thinking all the while
Memories of you
Your charm and your smile.

Then the phone rings
And you are there
Happiness and joy
Your voice is clear.

It's clear to me
Our love is true
I long to be
Again with you.

INDIAN PAINTBRUSH

An Indian paintbrush
I give to you
So you may paint your way
Expressing feelings true.

You can paint all day
And into the night too
Mixing all your colors
From the red to the blue.

Paint your scene with love
And when you do
You will think of me
And I shall be with you.

And I'll paint with you
And our dreams will come true
Then you'll always know
Of my love for you.

FISHING

I've quit my job
I've stopped my wishing
Here I am
I've gone fishing.

YOU'RE IN MY THOUGHTS

You're in my thoughts
And in my heart
May we always be together
May we never be apart.

I love you my dear
And I'll hold you near
And we'll be together
Every day of the year.

MAY OUR DREAMS
BE TOUCHED WITH MAGIC

May our dreams be touched with magic
As we travel on our way
May we walk in sunlight bright
And take time to sing and play.

May we heal any inner hurt
Pain or fear that's in our way
As we walk in Light everlasting
In God's magical rainbow ray.

HAPPINESS AND JOY

Happiness and joy are seeds
That should never be apart
They will cultivate love
When planted in the heart.

THE INDIAN ROCK

In quiet meditation we sit
Around the fire late at night
Bathing in the flaming glow
Of the fire, clear and bright.

Nature spirits all around
And the Spirit of the Rock
As we sit in quiet joy
Listening to Nature talk.

Tuning in we listen close
To the fire crackling clear
While all around can be heard
Sounds of Mother Nature there.

Later on we prepare to sleep
As we bed down for the night
Under the ledge of the Rock
Bundled in our sleeping bags tight.

And through the night
We're taken into the mountain deep
Into a secret temple there
To receive healing as we sleep.

Upon awakening in the early morn
A higher vibration we are in
A change of energy we have received
We will surely go there again.

SOMEWHERE

Somewhere in the distant past
Or perhaps in a time to come
I look into a looking glass
To see us together in the sun.

Memories of another time
A time I try to recall and reason
A time that was yours and mine
Another place, another season.

We were together in other times
And together we were free
Listening to the echoing chimes
Of celestial music played for you and me.

Mentally we can be there again
To another realm, not like this
Into a different space, free of pain
A place of wonder, love and bliss.

NIGHT STAR

Colors of the night
Music of the spheres
Sounds and tones of delight
Soothing to the ears.

Night Star touches the colors of light
As each gives off a different sound
Colors sparkling bright
Vibrations of sound and light all around.

Vibrations of love energy too
Flow from the vibrations within the star
Resounding out to me and you
Echoing near and afar.

Music of the spheres indeed
Vibrations flowing through
They seem to say, 'I am your star seed'
Resounding, 'I Love You'.

In tribure to the space music composed by musical artist James Brue and channelled by the space entity, Night Star. Boulder California November 12, 1987

TEHACHAPI

In the Mojave Desert on the western slope
In the mountain range known as Tehachapi
Is a pocket area, a land of hope
A place of the future, a place to be free.

Nestled in the mountain ridge
Protected on every side
On the desert's edge
A place to reside.

Where warm winds blow from the west
Protected from above
And the temperature is the best
Land that I love.

In some future time I shall go there again
To visit friends for whom I care
To see again familiar terrain
And to visit a community that is not yet there.

A LIGHT IN THE SKY

I am on the starship Superior One
My name is Ty-lee
I come from the Central Sun
Here to greet you at Yucca Valley.

I am on a starship
On a special mission
From Central Control to bring you a gift
If only you will listen.

I bring the gift of a new light
To be seen by you in the sky
One that will shine bright
In the heavens high.

I come as the hope for tomorrow
For bright and sunny days
Here to remove sadness and sorrow
And to acknowledge love and praise.

Look to the east as the sun rises
Look to the west as the sun goes down
You will see many surprises
As you travel from town to town.

THE FEATHER

While travelling on a sunny day
I stopped to admire the view
Below me in a protected valley
Was a pasture where a flower garden grew.

While drinking in the beauty of the land
I marvelled at the blue sky that I love
Shading my eyes from the sun
I saw a soaring eagle high above.

As I watched the eagle circling overhead
Flying strong and free
He dropped a feather from his wing
And lit upon the branches of a tree.

I saw the eagle watching me
As he sat silhouetted against the sun's golden ray
Then I caught the feather as it floated free
Seemingly pleased, the eagle flew away.
