Here I Am

Here I am gliding on wings of peace
I am here and everywhere
So many things I wish to say to you
There are so many ways to say I love you
The colours in a sunrise greeting the morning light
The gentle breeze that whispers in the trees
Songs of family, songs of heart
There is healing in the Rainbow that calls
us together and watches over us

Here I am always for the one who cares
You took my hand and never let go
I feel you holding me near
I feel your silver tears upon my heart
I hear your voice in the winds of peace
I have always known your love
I feel it strongly now and always will
A father, a uncle, a friend
A kindred Spirit who understands

Here I am the newest silver star
That blinks back at you
I see your love lighting my path
Always there with a hug, a hand to hold
Words of love and encouragement

Here I am always near
Everywhere you are so am I
Here I am, feel my gentle touches
On your heart, I send you hugs
My heart always remembers your love

Here I am, I hear your voice in the night
I whisper to you in the twinkle of a blinking star
Always and forever near

THE ROSE

Some say love, it is a river
that drowns the tender reed.
Some say love, it is a razor
that leaves your soul to bleed.
Some say love, it is a hunger,
an endless aching need.
I say love, it is a flower,
and you its only seed.

It's the heart afraid of breaking
that never learns to dance.
It's the dream afraid of waking
that never takes the chance.
It's the one who won't be taken,
who cannot seem to give,
and the soul afraid of dyin'
that never learns to live.

When the night has been too lonely
and the road has been to long,
and you think that love is only
for the lucky and the strong,
just remember in the winter
far beneath the bitter snows
lies the seed that with the sun's love
in the spring becomes the rose.
