Love In Myriad Hues

One love erodes, one love shores
One love tatters, one love stitches
One love depresses, one love elates
One love batters, one love comforts
One love deadens, one love enlivens
One love saddens, one love gladdens
One love diminishes, one love builds
One love is a blessing, one love is a curse
One love gives despair, one love give hope
One love pushes over the edge, one love rescues
One love sacrifices self one love demands sacrifice
One love suffocates in obsession, one love liberates
One love makes senseless, one love sharpens senses
One love makes you sink, one love makes you swim
One love makes one fearful, one love makes fearless
One love make you crestfallen, one puts in throes of rapture
One love skims on surface, one love plumbs the depths
One love drives towards intoxication, one love gives a natural high
One love makes you cynical, one love makes you sentimental
One love lifts emotionally, one love elevates  spiritually

When I saw you I was afraid to meet you. When I met you I was afraid to kiss you.
When I kissed you I was afraid to love you. Now that I love you, I am afraid to lose you.

Those Lazy Hazy Crazy Days of Summer

Come on old friend, let us hook up and meet
Capture old memories after each other greet

Let us hug joyously and recollect and reminisce
Going back in time when we were mostly in bliss

Those glittering halcyon days of endless summers
Hastily eaten food, finished homework without a murmur

Dirty smeared faces, torn shirts, bruised knees n runny nose
Jumping jacks and marbles, ball games n snaky garden hose

Bitter doses of cold medicines, gulped hastily before yummy sweets
Chills and fevers ignored impatiently hearing pied piper’s drumbeat 

Sneaking out like a ninja, palpitating heart in mouth, clenched firmly
Tiptoeing down the creaking staircase, ears perked askance warily

It was all such a hoot and we had lots of fun n enjoyment galore
Recollecting still gives me joy, bringing past thrills to the fore

Those rented bike rides, seated together we were a singing duo
Umbrella’s turning inside out drenching as we rode like an arrow 

Come on old friend, let us hook up and meet
Capture old memories after each other greet

Let us hug joyously and recollect and reminisce
Going back in time when we were usually in bliss

Roll out those lazy, hazy, crazy days of summer
Those days of soda and pretzels and beer
Roll out those lazy, hazy, crazy days of summer
Dust off the sun and moon and sing a song of cheer

Just fill your basket full of sandwiches and weenies
Then lock the house up, now youre set
And on the beach youll see the girls in their bikinis
As cute as ever but they never get em wet

Roll out those lazy, hazy, crazy days of summer
Those days of soda and pretzels and beer
Roll out those lazy, hazy, crazy days of summer
Youll wish that summer could always be here

Roll out those lazy, hazy, crazy days of summer
Those days of soda and pretzels and beer
Roll out those lazy, hazy, crazy days of summer
Dust off the sun and moon and sing a song of cheer

Dont hafta tell a girl and fella about a drive-in
Or some romantic moon it seems
Right from the moment that those lovers start arrivin
Youll see more kissin <wolf whistle> in the cars than on the screen

Roll out those lazy, hazy, crazy days of summer
Those days of soda and pretzels and beer
Roll out those lazy, hazy, crazy days of summer
Youll wish that summer could always be here

Youll wish that summer could always be here
Youll wish that summer could always be here

Dream Weaver - One

Dream Weaver

I am a dream weaver

a little bit of aroma
a little bit of color
a little of texture
a little bit of fiber
a little bit of lore

a wee bit of imagination
a wee bit of embossing
a wee bit of glossing
a wee bit of flossing
a wee bit of perseverance

 

a whole lot of heart
a whole lot of love
a whole lot chance
a whole lot of romance
a whole lot of mystery

a dream woven
fragile n gossamer
dainty as a fairy
light and frothy
fit for a princess
 

******************************
I have dreamed in my life, dreams that have stayed with me ever after, and changed my ideas;
 they have gone through and through me, like wine through water, and altered the color of my mind.
Emily Bronte English, Novelist Quotes

A dream which is not interpreted is like a letter which is not read.-The Talmud

A milestone passed, new things begun, dreams as shining as the sun, a goal achieved, a victory won!That’s Graduation.

Dream Weaver - my fav song by
~ Gary Wright
 
I’ve just closed my eyes again
Climbed aboard the dream weaver train
Driver take away my worries of today
And leave tomorrow behind

(chorus)
Ooh dream weaver
I believe you can get me through the night
Ooh dream weaver
I believe we can reach the morning light
Fly me high through the starry skies
Maybe to an astral plane
Cross the highways of fantasy
Help me to forget today’s pain

(chorus)

Though the dawn may be coming soon
There still may be some time
Fly me away to the bright side of the moon
And meet me on the other side

 

Ricochet

My love rises steaming, tenderness brimming
Your usual stodginess, sends it back recoiling

Ruefully, my mind searches for another tack
To revive the tender love that we once had

I make another venture into my bag of tricks
Wishing to recapture old magic this impasse fix

I devour cookbooks for your favorite meal
You enjoy it, licking fingers, then fall asleep

Chagrined once again, I fish out another bait
Wearing your choice of clothes for our date

You return from office harried and in a blue funk
Quietly I shed my party wear showing false spunk

Still determined, into my bag of tricks I foray
Pull out old fun photos and videos for display

You sit down and together we relive moments of our love
We hold hands, cuddle, when suddenly albums you shove

Office work deadlines and laptop beckon and fluster
Woefully I make strong coffee, enthusiasm lackluster

 

 Biting the bullet I try once more playing romantic lyrics
You croon along and gleefully I surmise that I hit a six

Finally, I am sure my brimming hope and love did not ricochet
You rise then fall into a jig, sing along then promptly fall asleep!!!

I still have hope that our love vibrations will unite after they collide
No matter how many times they recoil, bounce, carom or backslide

***********************************

 

If you’re in a forest, the quality of the echo is very strange because echoes back off
 so many surfaces of all those trees that you get this strange, itchy ricochet effect.
Brian Eno British, Musician

GENESIS

A diffident germination
A flicker, a novel idea
A glimmer of light
At the end of creative
Fugue

Flickering glimmer
Gaining strength
Powering forcefully
Birthing creatively
Labor pangs

A steady stream
Chain of thoughts
A burst of color
A work of art
Genesis

Labor of love
Demands a pact between
Creativity, honesty, purity-a
Covenant- as words are sent forth in
Mass Exodus

Genesis-labor-covenant exodus

Finished product-poem-story-prose-text

A labor of Love!!

I do not think there is any thrill that can go through the human heart
 like that felt by the inventor as he sees some creation of the brain unfolding to success…
 Such emotions make a man forget food, sleep, friends, love, everything.-Nikola Tesla American, Inventor

 

Each day is a little life: every waking and rising a little birth, every fresh morning a little youth,
 every going to rest and sleep a little death.-Arthur Schopenhauer German, Philosopher Quotes

* The birth of one brick holds the entire foundation of a beautiful piece of
 architecture that pulls a masterpiece together on canvas or paper. 
* Awake with one color in mind, one word, one idea, one point of view,
one emotion or one dream, and the creative evolution of passion carries to fruition.-  Carl Stoynoff
