Happy Journey Shared

I love to hear you whisper,
Sweet nothings in my ear.
You hold me close within your arms,
Chasing away all my hidden fears.
Giving me your big, strong shoulder to cry on,
You are a man, I feel, I can rely on.
There was a time when I was afraid,
To allow a man so close to my heart.
But, you seem to be breaking down the barriers,
And you began doing so, right from the start.
You seem to need me as I need you;
So, there's really nothing that we can do;
But let each moment guide us,
To where we're supposed to be.
For happiness, is what we both seek.

Our Love

You need not ponder very hard
What I desire from you each day.
Just devote all the love in your heart,
And be faithful in every way.
My love for you is genuine, I swear.
No matter what I say or do
Even when your displeasure is clear,
I'll still be true to you.
Come hold me close, kiss me strong,
Make passionate love to me;
For we both know, this is where we belong
Our Love was meant to be.

Megan Marilee

Megan Marilee,
Come play hide and seek with me.
In the golden room, I stay.
With my dolls and balls, I play.
Bring back my laughter and dry my tears.
Hold me close with hugs and kiss away my fears.
Chase away the goblins and set me free,
Megan Marilee

Little Suzie Snowflake

Little Suzie Snowflake,
fell gently to the ground.
just like all the other snowflakes,
She thought she was safe and sound.
As more of Suzie's crystallized friends
Landed softly upon her frozen crown;
She believed her sanctuary would depend
On more snowflakes falling all around.
As snow piled high over Suzie's head,
She really felt comfortable in her frosty bed.
Then, she heard the laughter of children,
Running and tumbling, in the snow.
She sensed feelings of apprehension,
Not knowing where . . .
The children's feet would go.
