Dream MemoriesAs day slips away into nightThe trials and tribulations of life…Fade awayBehind the curtains of sleep and dreamsIn my mindWarm tropical breezes caress your skinThe playful splash of youFlits around the edges of my mindNo matter where my dreams take me…You’re thereAs the sun rises, it brightens the new dayand it reminds me of your beautiful smileYou’re the prize that awaits meAs the voyage of dreams nears its end The warmth of your lips linger…As nights twilight merges into dawns…See More

Hope, The blackness…fading to gray Lord I swear it’s getting brighter, better. God… what’s coming over me? Colors, Rainbows of colors, bringing…See More

Vinegar and Oil No matter what we do No matter how hard we try It always stays the same girl Baby you know it’s true We’re just like vinegar and oil We don’t go together very well Unless we’re shaken up or stirred We…See More
