Excerpt
THE HARMONY
She sings
He knows every trick there is in the book
He walks away from me & stays there and looks
He grew some wildflowers & hands me a bouquet
And I tell him Iīve got to have space right away
He says the two of us should getaway for some tea
He invites me because Iīm fantastic company
He promises the moon & that Iīll never get bored
I tell him right away Iīve heard it all before
He says I was made from a rib of love & look so nice
He knows my heartīs on fire when he brings me ice
He says when we come together we will both agree
A different gaze or another phrase finds the harmony
My mind is made up of changes everyday
I help him with his work & we take a break & play
He helps me put my belt on as we wrestle to the floor
Itīs not the first time I been with boys like him before

All You Need Is Love
The stars long for darkness
In order to shine
Our souls bear light
I
lluminated through our eyes
Angel eyes
You make me come
To my senses
From a heart of love
I catch a wink from her
She says back to me with a smile
Positive and honest
A vision of love
Physical energy
Intellectual strength
Spiritual faithfulness
Emotional excitement
Friendship and support
They wonīt allow bullies
To put them down
Angelic crown
Inspiration
You make me come
To my senses
Through your eyes
And smile
So pretty and fair
The glance of your soul
The movement of your hair
The love of your sibling over there
The creative feel in the air
Angel eyes
Extraordinary care
Poems of love
The way you look
I read you
In the eyes of your heart book
Makes a connection there in my mind
Gentle loving and so kind
Like a hand to a glove
All you need is love
MAGICAL DAYS
First meet
Something bright and different
Magical true
All these days inspiring new
Through pain we find treasure
In the muscles you measure
Hard and strong magical soft as a feather
To open these days healthier and fitter
See you run
Slow
as a rideYour love and your beauty
Come from inside
The way you move your fingers
When you change your hair
Watching
you lift your bare handsOn bars in the air
Y
ou are unfetteredEnergy strength training endurance lifting abs
Gym and body ready in exercise love action
Mirror inspiration roses I am magical
THE BUZZ & THE BUTTERFLY
Come with me
we can make honey
Bee tells butterfly & she laughs
You've been chasing my tail all day
Follow movement with choreographs
Bee sees two butterflies
A beautiful twin for bee with interest
He notices the mirror & two are one
She winks & bee sees he is different
Bee asks can I train to fly like you
Graceful strong balanced true
Show me flowers we enjoy too
You have wings & a way about you
Hear the buzz and know who you are
Bee answers you be the butterfly star
She says stay on my radar
We will meet again near and far
