We’re doing Veterans Day Senryus on the Friday Fling this week so I did a Senryu about the essence of one of my favorite songs
From core of my soul,
I swear by the stars above:
I love how you love.

Coming Back
In “Surrealistic Pillow”, Marty Balin would sing
feelings heretofore unfelt by this unformed thing.
In the losing of love how sadness did cling
and intimations of healing its return might bring.
“Summer had inhaled and held its breath too long”
These words are echoed in memory’s song.
Looking down from a hill surveying the shore,
through a torn curtain in his heart was seen
the image of love walking back in this dream.
Unprepared at eighteen, love’s concept was missed.
The power and commitment that lies in a kiss.
Sensing but not knowing, over would I play
this piece of my innocence that so moves me today..

Major debt to Jefferson Airplane – I Love You Always
Wildflower is me.
My heart does believe.
The sorrow I have felt canāt begin to compare to many lifeās.
My hole life I have felt terrible strife.
Been beaten , raped many times.
I have had my heart broken so many ways.
I have lived in a horror movie since I was 6.
Now Iām free . Free to breath.
Free to live my life the way I choose.
Although some pain remains Iām ok.
The days are not so hard.
And moments remembered donāt stab me anymore in my heart.
They will never again brake my heart .
I have decided its time to be happy.
I have decided itās time to erase the past.
In this life I will always help the rest itās who I am.
I give my heart and soul to heaven.
For the abused , homeless, and runaways need a shoulder to.
This is not debit itās who I am since birth .
Helping people makes me feel good inside.
It has helped me to heal through time.
And has brought me good karma.
I am helped in return .
The circle of a helping life.
I know my heart will still cry for those I see living in misery.
But I be there to listen to there screams and give all I have to give.
Just like a bird I will fly though the sky.
I will fly into the bright light.
Dance my life right.
I will find my heart.
I wont let it fall apart.
I will survive this life.
I will set a side this lover’s strife.
And just keep on going living my beautiful life.
Through this pain’s game I find my soul soaring through the day.
I wont pay for such hard pain.
I wont just stand there and let in rain.
I’m going to fight for what is mine.
Cause I am running out of time.
One more chance to do things right
I am holding on to my life tight.
Dancing through the night.
One step at time I will prance.
I will do my best.
I will pass this life’s hard ass test.
Cause I’m strong enough to win.
I will move mountains to get over yours and my sins.
I will move on slowly.
For I still feel my heart so coldly.
But this road I’m traveling on has got my spirit singing inspirational songs.
I know now how much I belong to me.
This rainbow light I have started to see.
I wont let me down.
I will never again drown.

I am in a hurry have little ones but, hard to pick for both these are my songs from my heart shared with you I have these on my pro file page for they are true Love you I do :love: :love: :love: :love:
You are the Wind Beneath My Wings
You give live in many ways
Never think you are not loved
For love you are as you are loved
Can`t give up so, much beauty within feel as giving self a hug
No one but you for only one of you know
I wish I could show you how much you mean to all
We have no idea how loved we are
I do have so many favorite songs and music pieces — extremely eclectic am I. Such a wonderful theme today. Will be back again later on . . . . :love: :love: :love:
A piece written last year that sums up my relationship with music . . . . while I’m working on something new . . . .
LIFE SONGS
Down country roads,
the high ones and low,
down city streets
and where rivers flow,
my heart dancing with the music
I hear within the wind,
singing along with the melodies
as they touch my soul each day.
As varied as the day is long,
the music of my life,
as I listen I can’t help
but hum along,
and cry and laugh and smile
as they soothe my soul,
when frazzled,
and lift my mood
when it needs a boost.
I hear music in the moonbeams
and the healing strains at dawn;
I hear the birdsong symphonies
as they welcome the morning sun;
I hear a gentle whisper
in the waves caressing the shore;
and the rhythms of the rustling leaves
of autumn as winter is ushered in.
I seek them out and love each one;
I’m inspired by them all,
these melodies that
always bring so much joy
to this sometimes weary heart.

Its time to heal my broken down heart.
For two years its been torn apart.
My world crashing all around me.
It was so hard for us not to be.
Depression was my only friend.
My eyes where swollen from the tears I cried.
But now the tears have dried .
you was all I knew .
I thought I would die and how I tried.
But time finally passed and I survived .
Now I am left here fighting the blues.
But that just tells me how much I use to love you true.
If time heals all wounds then I can let you go.
I know ill soon forget the pain and betrayal caused by you .
If my heart would just let go and move so free I would love again you see.
Your not my only love .
I have so much love given to me from up above.
I know if I try I can say good bye my lover so true.
I know my heart is almost over you.
I feel it deep inside of me.
Sometimes life moves to a different beat.
I have a yearning to love free.
I promise I will be a life time of love.
No amount of hurt can change that.
Not even the deep hurt you stabbed in my back.
Iām learning to let go and Iām moving forward .
Iām saying good bye to the hurt.
Iām letting you go .
Good bye my lover.
I believe in me.
Faith has come inside of me.
It doesnāt matter how many times I fall.
Here I am trying to walk tall.
I believe in a good life after all .
Iām trying to stop me from being broken hearted and dealing with this cruel tormented strife.
If I try to be spiritual and happy I must find things to bring them feelings to light.
For everything starts from something right?
I donāt know where I am going from here.
But I know that the beginning of this new road is going to take me believing in me.
This road is at a cross roads and Iām left here bleeding trying to see which direction is right for me.
Nothing I do is seeding into the light.
Its just buried in my sights.
So I must try harder to climb out of this depression that holds me tight.
For I believe I can make my life right.
There are so many days I feel like Iām falling.
I canāt hear through the sobbing heavenās calling.
I must try to find a spark .
I must find a calling before I fall deeper into the dark.
I must find the knowledge to finding happiness.
For right now there is so many misses .
Iām here at a new start.
I must believe in me before it all falls apart.
TODAY CAME. ONCE AGAIN EVERY YEAR IT IS THE SAME .
I HEAD FOR YOUR GRAVE KNOWING ONLY YOUR FLESH AND BONES ARE LAID UPON THE EARTH AND GRASS THAT GROWS .
YOU HAVE BEEN WITH ME ALONG TIME POPPING IN FROM TIME TO TIME .
YET THIS DAY COMES AND THE RAIN POUR DOWNS ON MY FACE FOR YOU AND OTHERS .
A TIME I WONT LET GO OR FORGET .
I HOPE YOU LIKE THE FLOWERS.
STOP BY PICK THEM UP SOMETIME LOL .
YOU KNOW DADDY THE WAR: YOU DIDNāT DIE IN IT BUT THE WAR KILLED YOU JUST THE SAME .
AND I GREW UP BELIEVING YOU WOULD COME SAVE ME , CAUSE YOU WHERE MY HERO . FEW TIMES IN MY LIFE YOU DID .SOMETHING I WILL ALWAYS BELIEVE , MY GUARDIAN
I’LL NEVER FORGET THIS DAY AND HONOR YOU ALWAYS .
CAUSE YOU WILL NEVER BE LESS THAN AN ARMY HERO TO ME .
AND ALWAYS MORE THAN A DADDY HERO TO ,DO YOU SEE.
I MISS YOU BUT I KNOW YOUR ONLY āA KNOCK ON HEAVENS DOORSā AWAY .
I CAN FEEL YOU NEAR HAS I WRITE THIS LETTER.
HOW THINGS HAVE CHANGE SINCE LAST YEAR .
LESS TEARS FLOW NOW, MORE OF A PROUD GLOW UPON MY FACE .I AM SO GRATEFUL FOR YOU AND NEVER COULD IMAGINE A BRAVER DADDY MADE FOR ME.
THIS WOMAN WILL ALWAYS NEED YOU NO MATTER HOW OLD I GROW .
AND I AM GLAD YOUR SO CLOSE .
I WISHED I COULD SEE YOU EVERY DAY BUT GOD HAD BETTER PLANS.
SAID YOU COULDN’T STAY .
BUT HEAVEN IS ONLY A DISTANCE AWAY.
HOW I COULD CHERISH YOU MORE THAN I DO TODAY , IF ONLY I COULD SEE YOUR FACE.
BUT KNOW YOU ARE ALWAYS IN MY SOUL ,FOREVER AND A DAY MY HEART WILL LOVE YOU SO. I COULD NEVER LET YOU GO.
The lines of time.
I look in the mirror to see a woman who’s first part of years have taken its toll on my youthful look
I see time has slipped away before me leaving traces of a life;s story upon my face.
I see the past scares , from heart aches that has stained my face by the sun that has dried up my tears of pain
I see my eyes yearning for something more to bring a glow upon my face.
I see the scares of a love that went terribly wrong shadow near my lips a reminder of a terrifying fate.
I see a spirit not yet fully born and ready for so much more than life could ever give my soul.
The lines of time I have embraced upon my face only to see maturity to come with grace.
Each line is apart of my history my now and my future.
There is still so many line’s of time that can draw a life map upon my face Many years from now to when I am old and gray .
I just wounder if the lines of a life are going to be soft and gentle,
or will they be deep like scares of a trying hardship life.
It only seems like yesterday when I was so young .
When I look in the mirror I wounder where my youth has gone.
It is only a reflection and not the shape of my heart.
I am full of life ,looking for where my heart fits in this world.
I am a spirit that has learned to be true to be free I must always believe in me.
I am a person who helps nature create and rebuild from the elements of strife.
I am a person who loves to celebrate life.
I am a soul that wants to see and touch everything heavenly.
I am a person who lives a spiritual freedom.
I breath it sleep it and embrace it ever day of my life.
I see a person with a heart for a stranger willing to go out of my way to help stop your roller coaster of pain. To help them any way I can.
I am a person who is not perfect.
I can and do rage with a soul braking wrath.
But I am not proud of that.
I am a person that cherish life and believes we all deserver the right to live in freedom
Every day it takes so much faith to live in such big world of personalities.
I learned a long time a ago you only have one soul.
Treat it well.
Nurture it and love it except all of who you are with everything inside
Each and everyone one of us has a good side and bad . It is which one we choose to lead our lives.
And for me I live to find my soul’s peace.
I think the lines of time upon my face will treat me fairly .
Because Autumn does appear to have finally arrived here to Southern California . . . .
WIND SONGS
The wind draws me close,
her voice whispered
through the rustling leaves,
wind chimes singing
their peaceful melodies,
a soothing balm
to my restless heart,
eager to join in
their tranquil evening song,
dancing as they do
within the evening breeze,
delighting my imagination,
lifting my my spirit
when it falters
and begins to lag behind.
I have only to listen
to their soothing harmonies
to feel at peace
and at one
with the song
of the chimes
in the wind.

FRIENDS OF MINE
~
Sing my song
Of love that I share
Sing the song with me
Let share the love that we have
Like I miss the way you miss me
When your not there
Even just for a while
Miss you as much as you miss me
Friends we have become
Will stay that way till the end
Sing with me this song
That we both can so share
Gift of a friend
I know I have in you
Any time you need a friend
I will be there for you
Soft music to here
Just relax
And listen with your heart
And know that I am always there
Sing my song
Of love that we share
Sing it with all your heart
And know that I care
A bond we have grown
Know just as strong
Soft music to the ear
And felt deep down in the heart
Sing this song with me
A friendship song
That is strong
And that will last till the end
~
