Beauty And The Beach
there is something about the ocean
that brings out the earth-mother in me
it is a place i love to go to write or
to ponder life's mysteries
being out in the ocean with
the waves spraying over me
feels something of a baptism
a cleansing of my soul's debris
the beach has a magnificent beauty
that never ceases to amaze me
and makes me feel one with the earth
in rhythmn and harmony
i realize as i look out to sea
how very small i really must be
in the overall scheme of things
i love the sea for it brings
out the spirituality in me
the feeling of being totally free
like seagulls overhead and
the sand underneath my feet
or the engulfing sun warming me
to get down to the nitty-gritty
the sea is a poet's paradise to me

Because Of You
my days of being blue
are over because of you
your love has freed me
and you always seem to
bring out the best in me
your love is so beautiful
it means everything to me
it seems like i had to wait
forever before i found you
but i know your love is true

Between The Two
one man wanted my heart
the other made it bleed
one man made me smile
the other made me plead
one took me for granted
while the other was fair
one man kept me crying
the other really cared
one man hurt me badly
the other made me blue
one left me in april
the other left in june

Blue
blue, blue, blue
it's such a beautiful hue
i love blue
except when i've got the blues
blue, blue, blue
i've always loved blue it's true
i've heard of roses that color too
blue, blue, blue
it's much more than just a hue
it could be true blue like my love for you
