You Light Up My Life Like The Fireworks In The Sky
Whatever happened to a passion I could live for?
What became of the flame that made me feel more?
When did I forget that...I was made to love you?
I was made to find you and for you to feel my love too
I was made just for you, made to adore you
I was made to be loved and loved by you too
Our special love resides in a glance from our eyes
Under the wonderful heavens within the blue skies
At times I feel so in love with you, tears flow from my eyes
I feel complete knowing we live for truth and never tell lies
Safe in your arms feeling your special love, sharing our wisdom
When I am sad you cheer me up helping me not feel like the victim
You fill my heart with desire when you are near
Our beautiful love creates positive feelings crystal clear
The chemistry of two souls happy or sad mix love into one
When we make passionate love, both of us feel we have won
Together we fix our conflicts to create more love and fun
Building a more powerful relationship like the phoenix rising in the sun
Watching our love explode like fireworks in the sky
Creating our love through passion until the day we die
Lazy Days Spent In My Special Chair
My name is Fred and I live my life without many worries on my mind
My owners are special and always provide me my food and treat me kind
I am growing older by the day and my joints feel stiff when it rains
My fifteenth birthday has come and gone and today my legs are full of pains
I am told by my owners to eat special food that will help me stay strong
I hate the taste and eat it all when I am hungry, because I know they’re not wrong
They really try to keep me alive and yet someday soon I may die
I hope I go fast with not much pain and I really don’t want to whimper or cry
I am a proud dog used too running wild in my youth basically free
Now I enjoy this soft chair and barely move hardly able to see
My hearing seems to be ok; it is my eyesight that troubles me
I hear a stranger’s car pull into the yard yet I cannot see who it could be
I am afraid my days of being a good guard dog have passed me by
I feel pains in parts of my body and that is no way to die
I want to go peacefully without pain living out my final days until I die
Death seems to occupy my mind these days and I wonder why
The neighbors’ dog Charlie lived till he was fifteen and then he was hit by a car
I wonder sometimes if Charlie walked on purpose across the road too far
He was sick and he showed no fear when it was his time to die
Perhaps I will meet Charlie in dog heaven way up high in the sky
Another Beautiful Day
The sky is light blue with one big grey fluffy cloud
The warm wind is blowing in my ear and the distant thunder sounds loud
I smell the rain in the air, and I think the rain is coming toward my home fast
I hope this rain today is more like a mist and falls softly and will last
I see a beauty in the many colored flower petals as the images kiss my eyes
Flying around the flowers I see yellow and black honey bees and a few flies
I watch them slowly fly around-and-around in the warm sunlight having fun
The experiences of spreading pollen from flower-to-flower all day has been won
When I see the old trees I planted years ago standing tall I feel proud
Looking into my beautiful garden makes me want to sing out loud
I spend many enjoyable hours removing weeds and grooming my flower patch
Planting my flowers carefully making sure the garden colors all match
I enjoy feeling the gentle rain and warm sunshine touch my face
Watching the soft rain remove the dust on the flowers then evaporating without a trace
The beautiful colors I see amaze me and my new flower blooms are growing fast
When the soft rain mixes with warm sunshine I know the flowers will last-and-last
My red and white roses are beautifully colored when in full bloom
The many flowers are so large in my garden I am running out of room
My garden provides my mind with a feeling of peace within creating my happy day
Like the small children in the neighborhood create fun running in the yards as they play
I See The War Ended For Some
The days in the Iraq desert are scorching hot and the nights are cold
I have been sent here to fight and I am not very old
I have taken the training and learned how to use many guns
The war created is over democracy and to avenge the fallen ones
So many fight against freedom and have been crippled or died
On both sides of the battlefield many political leaders have lied
I wonder why I am here in a land with so many buried souls
Oil prices up creating more taxes for government, is this part of my role?
If the wars ended could this collapse the economy for war companies fast?
Would oil still be priced so high and could the military stay large and last?
I wonder what the soldiers who died that live in heaven would say
They traded their life they had for the taxation created and a day’s pay
Finding a job can be tough and many find employment in the war to fight
Military enrollment keeping employment numbers low; is that right?
If other political leaders bombed Iraq without real proof would they be free?
Or would the world stand up and create a
