Man walks in the woods
Sees a frantic animal
He opens the trap

Happiness and love
Harmonizing in the woods
Brings us together

The technology
Ever increasing in life
Brings joy, or does it?

Strumming the guitar
Music fueled by passion
All come to hear it

Dreaming of a girl
A girl that makes my world spin
She is only you

Technology grows
Until our problems are solved
But new ones are born

I write and I write
Everything down on paper
The words spring to life

I wished on a star
In hopes of a small package
One that brings us joy

My Secret Garden

I dream of a secret garden
Filled with roses
And a bench that seats two

I dream of a majestic fountain
With sparkling water
That brings life to those near

I dream of a blue sky
That watches over
The beautiful creatures of my world

I dream a dream of romance
That warms you
In a cold, unsafe outside world

I dream this would be real
But I know
That this dream will stay dreamt

Star Gazer

I wonder what it would be like to be a star?
Shining in the heavens,
Watching over the world

Alone, they are but a speck
Glistening faintly
Sometimes not at all

Together they paint the sky
Bright sparkles
Against a darkened night

Stars are idols to lovers
Iconic almost
Protecting the feelings of the pure

But I wonder what life a star would have
If that star
Is shining alone
