i wrote this poem for my kids grandfather to his wife who died last
year

how do i get there
we've always been the best of friends
no secerts and no demands
but suddenly from out of the blue
i see a different light around you
one thing i haven't told you,
i just wantto hold you
i just want to know


how do i get there from here
how do i make you see
how do i tell you what
my hearts been tellin' me
lost in your love' arms
that's where i want to be
you know i love you
how do i get there


you probably think i've lost my mind
takin' this chance crossin' that line
but i promise to be trurer than true
dreaming every night
with these arms around you
i can't wait any longer
this feeling's getting stronger
help me find a way

i know the shortest distance
between two points is a straight line
but i'll climb any mountain
that you want me to climb
the perfect combinations is your heat and mine
let me know you are here with me
forever in my heart you will remain

this poem is dedicated to mary from clyde
(mary has went to rest in gods arms on
march 23, 2005 but in his heart
she will forever remain)

I bid you farewell, I bid the world farewell along with you
who killed me, you who injured me.
I have forgiven your harshness.
I bid you farewell without saying goodbye,
without blame and without words that injure.
I injure you!

In the name of agony, leave me quickly.
My great love will safeguard you on your way.
God go with you.

I bid you farewell.
I leave a lover who bade you farewell before time.
I bid you farewell.
Talk to me... I am eager to hear from you;
it is a long time since I bid you farewell.
I leave you with a desire for the touch of your hand,
for a farewell touch.
What misery, I hate you!...
No! I love you!

A lifetime has gone with the wind!
Yesterday was warmed with your companionship.
I am your journey;
I am forgiveness, irrespective of the wounds.
My great love will guard you on your way.
God go with you.
On this very night I wrote to you,
on this my birthday, a song just for you,
to remind you of your appointment.

My love, the nights come to make you forget;
you come to enlighten my loneliness with your smile.
Strangers and I all wish you'd remembered the date and come,
but it seems you have forgotten?
Everybody remembered but you, who forgot.
I will make you hear your song.
A happy year to you, the happy person
suffering with my tears at the feast.

I have never in my loneliness, forgotten the dates.
Did you like your song?
I bid you farewell with a bitter silence.
I am but a guest who passed, thirsty
and I drank from your love.
How generous you were.
I bid you farewell.
My name is patience.
I am under an order, my love is awake to protect you on your way.
God go with you.
