THANK YOU FOR BEING
SUCH A BRIGHT SPOT IN MY LIFE

Thank you for being
Such a bright spot in my life
When I am with you I'm seeing
Everything flowing in light.

You light up my life
Like the sun bright
Shining through the day
Giving off its light.

I feel fresh and clear
When you are near
That I want to be near you
Every day of the year.

So I give thanks
That I have you to love
A bright spot in my life
An angel from above.

YOU'VE BEEN THERE

You've been there, haven't you?
To a place where peace fills the air
Where babies are born without a care
You've been there.

You've been to the place
Where fairies are found
And rainbows fill oceans
And flowers cover the ground.

Where laughter is a language
That makes everyone rejoice
I can see it in your smile
I can hear it in your voice.

Show me the way, and I shall follow you there
To this mystical place that made you you
That way, perhaps I can share
And people will know that I've been there too.

FLOWERS DANCING IN THE GRASS

You see everything with glee
You see everything in sight
Your smiling eyes dance merrily
Like fireflies on a summer night.

Butterflies flittering to and fro
And flowers dancing in the grass
Colors in their brightest glow
You let nothing pass.

You see everything there is to see
You see Nature without a flaw
You show everything to me
You view everything with awe.

Everything you say is true
When you point things out to me
And I'm proud to be with you
My Carmel by the Sea.

THE BEAUTY IN YOU

All I see is your beauty
The beauty in all you do
Not just your physical beauty
But the beauty in you.

When I look at you I see
The beauty in your eyes
Every time I look
Always a new surprise.

The beauty in your eyes
As they shimmer in the light
Always brings joy to me
The way your eyes shine bright.

The beauty in your smile
Reflects your joy and harmony
When I see your smile
It brings a smile to me.

The beauty in your words
Are like dancing flowers
Whispering in the breeze
I could listen for hours.

The beauty in your love
The way you love me
I love that best of all
My Carmel by the Sea.

THE KINGDOM

I live in a kingdom
A kingdom of the mind
Where everything is perfect
Everything in perfect time.

I have all I need
All I want is there
A lovely place indeed
I live without a care.

I do whatever I want
And have a lot of fun
I play all day long
And frolic in the sun.

I give thanks above
That you are there with me
Together sharing our love
In perfect harmony.

MY CABIN IN THE WOOD

I have a special place
Where everything is good
A place that fills me with grace
My cabin in the wood.

Nearby two loons reside
They often dive for fish
In my cabin I would abide
If I had my wish.

I love to be in Nature there
By the stream with waters clear
Where Nature abonds
Every day of the year.

I love to be there more than you know
I would stay there all year if I could
With you in that special place I love so
My cabin in the wood.

RUNNING WITH THE WOLVES

We live in a wolf pack
With friends whom we love
We run all day long
Under the sun above.

We run side by side
We frolic and play
We play seek and hide
All through the day.

Together as one
We love being free
We love having fun
The wolves, you and me.

This one thing I love
This one thing is true
Running with the wolves
Is what we love to do.

SUMMER FLOWERS

Flowers they love
The hummingbirds dear
They love to be close
To the petals there.

They love to flitter
To partake of the smell
Of the flowers nearby
All day they do dwell.

Like the hummingbirds
I love flowers too
Sight, smell and hues
Beautiful flowers so true.

More than you know
I could watch for hours
I love them so
The summer flowers.

THE RUNAWAYS

Continuous as the stars that shine
Scattered o'er the sky
They stretch in never ending line
Dancing in the wind as I pass by.

Reaching to the sun
Taking in its light
Seemly having fun
A glorious sight.

On the lawn
Beneath the trees
Fluttering and dancing
In the breeze.

Blessed by Nature
Below and above
The Runaways they call them
The flowers that we love.

THE SUNBOW LIGHT

An eagle I am
A bird of prey
Looking o'er the land
Both night and day.

From my perch on high
Looking into the light
I see everything pass by
With my keen sight.

I love to see
The sunbow there
Shining on me
Colors so clear.

Of all the sights
I get to see
The greatest sight
Is the sunbow light.

BELIEVE IN OUR DREAMS

When we believe in our dreams
They can carry us to the stars
And our dreams will come true
Wherever we are.

So dream lofty dreams
And together we'll ride
Higher and higher towards our goal
On wings side by side.

So believe in yourself
And I will too
And we'll get lots of help
As we travel through.

This one thing I know
And this is for sure
As we believe in our dreams
We will receive much more.

QUIET MORNING

Quiet morning
After the rain
Waiting for the sun
To come out again.

Raindrops on the leaves
Raindrops on the ground
Water sitting
All around.

I'm ready to rise
To face the new day
My rest is over
I'm ready to play.

Here comes the sun
I'm free of rain
I'm free as a bird
And happy again.

AND I LOVE YOU

The night is here
And I feel blue
I hear a train whistle
And I miss you.

I lie in bed
Thoughts of you
Drifting through my head
And I miss you.

I drift into a light sleep
My dreams come true
Dreams of walking hand in hand
And I miss you.

I face the day
And go on my way
And I realize you are with me
And I love you.

THE MUSIC OF YOUR LOVE

The music of your love
Sings through me
Like voices of young children
And I am full of glee.

Clear and true the notes vibrate
To the depths of my soul
And heightens my spirit
More than you know.

A chorus of tenderness and grace
Resonates within me
Lifting me high above the sound
And I am free.

Together we compose a symphony
Of joy and purity and love
Singing in perfect harmony
With the heavenly angels above.

HAPPY SPRING

Just thinking about you at Spring time
And hoping that you are okay
Just wondering how things are going for you
And hoping they're going your way.

Spring is here
The flowers are out
And I can hear
The Flower Girl shout.

I am the Flower Girl
I'm proud to say
Picking flowers
On a warm spring day.

For when spring comes around
And the birds sing
And fresh flowers abound
I want to wish you Happy Spring.

THE SONG GOES ON

I sang a song into the night
With only stars to hear
I sang it softly, wondering why
You could not be near.

I sang a song into the night
On wings of love
My song took flight
And floated up above.

A simple song I sang
It became a symphony
A song I sang all day long
A song which brought you to me.

And now that we are together
We sing in perfect harmony
As we stroll throughout the day
Together you and me.

COME AND SIT BESIDE ME

Come and sit beside me
As we sit by the sea
Like the water splashing against the shore
We'll feel completely free.

Come and sit beside me
Beneath the endless sky
Let me share your happiness
As the evening passes by.

Come and sit beside me
Let us pass the night
Looking overhead high
Watching the stars twinkling bright.

Come and sit beside me
As we wish upon a shooting star
Let me hold your hand
And love you for who you are.

ON MORNING BELL MOUNTAIN

A perfect night indeed
Everything so still
As I meditate alone
On Morning Bell Mountain hill.

The stars shine bright
In the evening sky so true
Bathing in full moon light
Ans I am missing you.

Nothing moving in the night
Except for a warm, light breeze
And the sound of the wind
Whispering amongst the trees.

I hear your voice in my mind
And in that instant I know
That we are not apart
That you are there with me.

MEMORIES

Memories are made of things
That happen every day
Moments as we live them
Things we do and say.

Little bits of pieces
Laughter mixed with tears
Photographs and recordings
Recorded through the years.

Good times we remember
Everything with no regret
A never ending love afair
Is one you don't forget.

We have many memories
Each of a different kind
Every one so beautiful
It stays printed in the mind.

Our memories keep building
Each day can be the start
Of making new and happy ones
To live within our heart.

I HAVE MET AN ANGEL

I have met an angel
She came down from the sky
I hold her in my arms
And never wonder why.

I have met an angel
All the shades of white
Bringing out her beauty
She's ready to take flight.

I have met an angel
She's right here beside me
My Cheyenne and my Golden Flame
My Carmel by the Sea.

I have met an angel
I love her with all my heart
Now that we are together
I never want to part.

DAYLIGHT DREAMS

I recall a dream I had
In the middle of the night
The time when dreams are alive
When everything is alright.

I recalled a love for you
It seems I've always known
What you meant to me from the start
A love that has only grown.

In the dream it was expressed
In daylight it is real
Feeling so close to you
A love I can't help but feel.

I want you to know about this love
Know there's no underlying scheme
Only that I will be around
In the daylight and in the dream.

TAKE TIME FOR LIFE

Take time for life
And enjoy it so
Savor every moment
Wherever you go.

Enjoy every second
As you breathe and live
Keep positive your thoughts
Love and forgive.

Smile at adversity
Look fear in the face
And you will be blessed
With Love and Grace.

Whatever you do
Stand up to the test
Take time for life
Live life to its best.

EARTHLY ANGEL

I want to be your angel
I want to guide you through the night
Guide you into safety
To a place of infinite light.

I want to be your angel
I want to stand with you
I want to walk the world
Hand in hand with you.

I want to be your angel
I want my smile to be the one
To cheer you up when you are sad
To smile with you in joyful fun.

I want to be your angel
To sing to you a happy song
To share your happiness and joy
To be with you the whole day through.

LOVE YOURSELF

Love yourself
Be kind and true
Sing and laugh
Be good to you.

Go easy through the day
Take time to rest
And your life will be
Nothing but the best.

To yourself be kind
Step into the light
Never look behind
Let your smile shine bright.

Shine your light for all to see
As you travel near or far
And you will always be
The angel that you are.

WHEN YOU'RE NEAR - IT'S MAGIC

Magical Moments
All through the year
It's magic
When you are near.

Our magic never stops
It grows more deeper and strong
Together with you
Is where I belong.

Oceans of love
I send to you
As deep and serene
As the ocean blue.

Those magical words
I love to hear
It's magic
When you are near.

TWO HEARTS TOGETHER

Two hearts together
Loving and sharing
Two hearts together
Giving and caring.

Two hearts together
In laughter and tears
Two hearts together
Down through the years.

LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL

Life's twice as beautiful
Shared by two
A world filled with love
Ever old, ever new.

Life's twice as beautiful
Shared with each other
Two happy people
Who love one another.

HAPPY VALENTINES DAY

Happiness is mine
When I am with you
Everything is fine
My feelings so true.

When we walk and talk
Dine and play in the sun
I love it so
And the way we have fun.

When we are together
You light up my world
And I'm proud to say
That you are my girl.

I love being with you
My Carmel by the Sea
Every day we are together
Is Valentines Day to me.

WARM THOUGHTS OF YOU

Thoughts
Can warm like sunshine
Cheer like bright
Bouquets of flowers

Thoughts
Can cross the miles
And touch a day
With happy hours.

Thoughts
Can bring back places
Faces, memories
And fun times too.

Thoughts
Can do all that and more
When they're thoughts
Of me and you.

LANGUAGE OF LOVE

Love speaks a language all its own
Without a word or sound
It starts deep in the heart where all
True happiness is found.

More and more, it seems we share
A language all our own
A bond, an understanding
Meant for you and me alone.

More and more, I'm finding out
How joyful love can be
For each day we grow closer
And you mean still more to me.

I love you more each day
My Carmel by the Sea
Each day I can truthfully say
You mean so much to me.

THIS FEELING OF LOVE

This feeling of love that I have for you
A feeling so strong, so special, so new
You give me the gift of happiness each day
Never have I known it could be this way.

You have given your love regardless of cost
With my heart in your care, I will never be lost
Or never again wonder what love really means
For now I do know it means so many things.

Understanding and caring through good times and bad
Sharing emotions should they be happy or sad
Being there for each other through laughter or tears
At each others' side for the rest of our years.

My only wish is to be with you my love
For each day I pray to the heavens above
That you always remember my feelings for you
Feelings so strong, sp special, so new.

NO ONE ELSE

No one else could ever be
The special things you are to me
Or fill my days, my heart, my world
So very happily.

No one else could comfort me
With just a look or touch
Or make me laugh and help me
To enjoy life half as much.

No one else could be for me
The special, perfect blend
Of a warm, exciting lover
And a gentle, caring friend.

No one else could understand
And know me like you do
No one else could be my love
No one else but you.

LOVE IS MAGIC

Love is magic, pure and sweet
For it alone makes life complete
Love turns all the commonplace
To matchless beauty, joy and grace.

Forever ending
Hearts would say
Love like magic
Shows the way.

MY SPECIAL LOVE

The happiest moments of my life
Are those I spend with you
The memories that mean most to me
Are those between us two.

And I hope this special message
Will show, at least in part
The very special love for you
That's always in my heart!

MISSING YOU

Whenever I miss you
It always brings to mind
The thoughts and hopes we shared
And our many happy times.

And I specially remember
The quiet moments too
I think of all the things
So unique to me and you.

And though the many miles
Make it seem we're far apart
Warm memories like these
Keep you ever in my heart.

I GET TO BE WITH YOU

When we are not together
Sometimes I feel a little blue
And then in my dreams
I get to be with you.

And when we are together
We get to talk and walk too
And being together is great
For I get to be with you.

And when we go out to dine
Eating fine food as we love to do
And holding hands across the table
I get to be with you.

And when we bathe together
And lying in bed too
A perfact way to end a day
For I get to be with you.

I LOVE SLEEPING WITH YOU

Cuddled close together
Snuggled in the night
Two lovers as one
Holding each other tight.

I recall quite clearly
My dreams so pure and true
I always have good dreams
When I am sleeping with you.

When we are in bed together
I love it when I awake at night
And you are there by my side
And we are holding each other tight.

When we are in bed together
We share our love so true
I always feel so high
When I am sleeping with you.

MAY YOUR DAY BE FILLED

May your day be filled
With sunny things
Smiles and laughter
Hopes and dreams.

May you ride on the light
On angel's wings
To hear the chimes
Of heaven sing.

May your days be sunny
As you love them to be
And may you share them
Happily with me.

And may we walk in love
Joy, peace and fun
Under the sun above
Together as one.

LOVE CONQUERS ALL

Whenever you are worried
And feel about to fall
Remember the words
Love conquers all.

When you are running against the wind
And feel you may drop the ball
Take a deep breath and remember
Love conquers all.

When you feel low down
And not feeling tall
Reach for the heavens
For love conquers all.

To hear the truth within
Listen to the angels call
For in the heavenly realm
Love conquers all.

TREAT YOURSELF WITH KINDNESS

Treat yourself with kindness
Take a walk in the sun
Skip along and sing a song
Have a little fun.

Treat yourself with kindness
Smile at everyone you see
And they will smile at you
And you will be happy.

Treat yourself with kindness
Bless yourself with grace
Before you start your day
Put on a happy face.

Treat yourself with kindness
Give thanks for the day
Give blessings up above
And your life will be O.K.

I RENEW OUR WEDDING VOWS

Our wonderful wedding day
At White Rock by the Sea
We perfromed our wedding ceremony
And you were married to me.

I love being married to you
I love it all day long
Our love bond so true
Like a bluebird song.

And then three more times
Since that wonderful day
We renewed our wedding vows
Each time in a wonderful way.

And now as we sit feeling high
Happiness flowing from us now
Flying high through the sky
I renew our wedding vows.

I AM RICH

I am rich beyond compare
I have abundant wealth
All I want is near
I am in perfect health.

I have precious possessions
I have all that I need
Affluence, great value and worth
Plenty is what I have indeed.

Overflowing with fullness
Joy, happiness and love
My life is rich indeed
Blessed by the angels above.

All these things I have its true
I am free of stress and strife
I have everything I need
Because I have you in my life.

I LOVE MY LITTLE CATNAPS
I love my little catnaps
In the early afternoon
When I dream of being with you
By the ocean blue.

And dream of being on the beach
And playing on the sand
And walking on the boardwalk
With you hand in hand.

And being very happy
And in a good mood
And dining with you
Sharing fine food.

I love my little catnaps
When I dream of being with you
Because I know for sure
They are dreams that come true.

YOU LIGHT UP MY WORLD

You light up my world
In every way
You are on my mind
Each and every day.

You light up my world
My love for you is sound
It is pure joy
To have you around.

You light up my world
Like the ocean so blue
And I am so high
When I am with you.

You light up my world
Every moment of the day
And I love being with you
What more can I say?

A DREAM

Years ago I had a dream
Of standing on a wind swept beach
By the ocean blue
In another land.

And in my head I heard
A whisper in my ear
I heard your voice
And knew that you were near.

"I am here My Dear"
You whispered to me
And suddenly I knew
I would be very happy.

And here I am today
Walking hand in hand with you
All because I had a dream
A dream that came true.

IN YOUR ROOM

In your room
I love to be
Together as one
Just you and me.

Looking out the window
A gentle breeze
Squirrels on the ground
Birds in the trees.

Sitting on the rug
As white as snow
I love sitting there
More than you know.

And lying in bed
Holding your hand and all
Watching the shadows
Dancing on the wall.

MY ONE WISH

I have never been loved
The way you love me
And I've never loved anyone
The way I love you.

And like two eagles
Soaring in the sky
Our love is as strong
Our love is as high.

I love all that you are
And all that we do
When we are together
The whole day through.

The one thing I wish
As I begin each new day
Is to be with you
To go out to play.
