"Fireflies"

I touch God in my song as the hill touches the far-away sea with its waterfall
The butterfly counts not months but moments and has time enough
Let my love, like sunlight, surround you and yet give you illuminated freedom
Love remains a secret even when spoken
For only a lover truly knows that he is loved
Emancipation from the bondage of the soil is no freedom for the tree
In love I pay the endless debt to thee for what thou art

"You are my friend”
My family
And all the relationships I have ever known
You are my wisdom and my warmth
The ecstasy in every high my heart has ever flown
My pupil
My teacher
My eagle and my dove
you are the music and the words to every song my soul has heard
You are my love"

Love's Tranquility
My true love hath my heart, and I have his,
By just exchange one for another given.
I hold his dear, and mine he cannot miss:
There never was a better bargain driven.
My true love hath my heart and I have his.
His heart in me keeps him and me in one,
My heart in him, his thought and senses guides:
He loves my heart, for once it was his own:
I cherish his, because in me it bides:
My true love hath my heart, and I have his.
Sir Philip Sidney (1554 - 1586)

Many a Mile

I look down the road that winds in the distance
And wonder where it might lead
I only know it makes no difference
As long as you walk with me

Many a mile we will travel
Many a dream we will share
Many a time we will gladly take the long way there
With every step we will draw closer
With every step our love will grow
Take my hand, we have many a mile to go

True love is not a destination
But one day we will arrive
This is the journey we will be taking
The rest of our lives
There will be days we're missing
All the places our love has been
There will be joy in knowing the best
Is still around the bend

With every step we will draw closer
At every turn our love will grow
Take my hand, we have many a mile to go
