Ode to “The Shark Tooth Queen”
There is only one sun and earth…
And yet in a multitude of sunsets, each one is different…
There are millions of people,
Yet every woman and man is unique…
In the darkness of night and silence,
I can still see your eyes, your smile
And hear your sweet voice…
“You never know”
She said,
“You never know.”
I could see an unbridled look in her eyes,
Like that of a horse running wild through a field of tall grass…
Or like a dolphin leaping from the waters, just because it can…
In all time, with all the land and with all the sea’s,
Will this horse and dolphin ever meet at the waters edge?

LOVE
Love is the most important feeling in the world.
With love, a decrepit old house can be comfortable.
Without love, a mansion can seem like a jail cell.
Happiness is a wonderful feeling too.
For with being happy, being cooped up on a rainy day can be joyous.
Without happiness, the sunniest of Days could blind someone’s emotions.
Freedom is also a great experience.
Personal freedom is the most important.
For
without personal freedom, you can become a prisoner of your
own thoughts.
Being
concerned with your feelings is important.
Being
concerned with other people’s feelings is equally important.
To some
people you play a huge role in their lives and you may not it.
Simply returning a phone call or sending a letter to a friend can brighten someone’s day.
Time away from whom and what you love will show you what’s really important in your life.
Being without the person you love will make all the experiences in the world less meaningful.
I had a dream last night.
I dreamed I was with you.
We were
walking, talking, bicycling and letting our hair flow in the
wind.
We were
laughing and fishing and sailing in the sun.
We were older and now together again; we can over come any obstacles in life.
We jumped in the water and hugged each other oh so tight.
We wished we could be together forever.
Then I
woke up and realized I had to go through life without my dream of you.
The
closer I got to true meaning of life, the more I became that
prisoner of my thoughts.
I knew
the only thing that would set me free is being with you.
When I’m
with you I feel love.
When I’m
with you I experience happiness.
When I’m
with you, my spirit is filled with personal freedom.
I’m more concerned with us.
I’m concerned with how you feel.
I’m concerned about our future relationship.
For without you, there is no love.
