I shall be a bouncy castle, a net To catch you if you should fall And set you, smiling, on the ground Ready to go and try again Or find another way. I shall be there, though you forget And never think of me at all, In the background just hanging around Waiting for the moment when You are glad that I... Sign in to see full entry.

Fireside
We'll sing old songs and tell tall tales, Secure around our friendly fire, Making merry as the light fails Constructing worlds as we desire From faerie dust, ideals and dreams And those wisdoms that we most cleave to Until our personal heaven seems To be place that we could journey to And happiness...

Tomorrow
If I could make tomorrow sing I'd have it serenade for you, If I could will it, it would bring Moments to make your dreams come true But as I can't all I can say, Hoping that it might be enough, Is "Find the beauty of today And in it you will find my love." Sign in to see full entry.

Happy Face
He showed his happy face, He didn't grumble or frown When things didn't go his way He simply found a reason to smile And a way to embrace Disappointment.

The Encounter
He cut through the blood-warm air, A shark in a stagnant sea, Sleek with predatory purpose and grace. She sat, innocent as a seal Talking, laughing, drinking tea Until her gaze landed on his face And the mundane gave way to the real As, reluctant, she began to feel. Sign in to see full entry.

Summer
Sultry and seductive, summer swayed into the morning Enchanting the observer with the warmth of her caress; The sweet fragrance of roses clung to her, adorning Summer's sensual entrance with the scent of tenderness.

Wishes
The whisper of the morning says "I love you" The murmur of the evening says the same The serenading of the stars above you Is a symphony constructed of your name. The North wind gently breathes of his affection The South wind constantly weeps "je t'adore" The West wind offers his heart for your... Sign in to see full entry.
