    Angel on Your Shoulder

    The moment that our hearts so kindly met,
    You touched my soul just like a gentle song.
    Soft spoken words of yours I can't forget,
    Sweet memory to last a lifetime long.

    If I could write for you a single tune,
    All dressed in blue reflective shining light,
    I'd wrap it in the myst'ry of the moon,
    Sung sweetly in the beauty of the night.


    If you should ever feel lost or alone,
    Please don't forget that you can count on me.
    The angel on your shoulder guide you home,
    Because that's where a friend should always be.


    My dear sweet one for you I'll always pray.
    One candle in the dark I'll light your way.

    Day’s End


    As sun sets on the beauty of this day,
    In hope that it has not been all for nought,
    The complexity of that for which I pray,
    It's truth lie in the lifetime blessing sought.

    With beauty, love and dreams we have been blessed.
    A moment not too soon I felt your heart,
    This has me needing more than your caress,
    Two souls as one we've made a gentle start.

    As softly colours blend and crimson, green,
    Violet, blue and yellow flood the sky,
    Although I'd love to share this wondrous scene,
    I raise my eyes and watch you wave goodbye.

    And how my gentle heart was soon dismayed,
    Oh, I most sadly wish that you had stayed!
