Love Shall I Answer Your Call

Love shall I answer your call
Your pleadings I hear them all
Every morning when I awaken
I see your face etched in heaven

Love shall I answer your call
And free from loneliness my soul
I want his quiet company around
Where the blessings of God abound

Love I hear you calling from above
For as I write this poem of love
I know I cannot love another one yet
My heart belongs to you even after death

When You Are Through Running Around

When you are through running around
And is on your way homeward bound
I will be waiting at the door
To love and care for you forevermore

When you are through chasing all the girls
And think you are ready for the churchbells
I will be waiting for you ar home
No matter how far you roam

Shall I Be The First To Say I Love You

Shall I be the first to say "I love you?"
When in your eyes I see you love me too
Shall I be the first to touch your hands
And run my fingers through your hair's strands

Shall I be the first to kiss you
And stand at the tip of my toe
To reach your lips above my head
Though the move should come from you instead

If I Could Turn The Hands Of Time

If I could turn the hands of time
Then I would be there at your death bed
Too busy trying to find out how I can earn a dime
Can you forgive me through all the tears I have shed

If I could turn the hands of time
I should have accepted that you were dying
Now nothing can bring you back, even the best of rhyme
Can you forgive me my darling?

The only consolation left in me
Is the memory of a friend's word
That you knew that with all my heart I loved thee
And I know you died in the graces of the Lord

Lord Help Me Make My Daily Quest

I feel like a child again learning to walk
Struggling through each step of the way
Lord, help me take a quest of each task
As to your grace surrender myself with allay

I took life for granted in my earlier years
Thinking that everything will come easy
Now a widow longing for comfort
With your loving care I surrender all to thee

Fending for survival in an indifferent world
Thank you for this moment of talking to you
I find rest before your presence Oh God
Now feeling stronger to claim my due

Lost In A Feign Of Genius

Lost in a feign of genius
Wrapped in insanity long abused
Where would fate find me?
In this make-believe twisted reality

Long have I waited for a chance
With fame and greatness make romance
Will I be pulled to oblivion?
Before proclaiming a stake of my dominion?

I Want To Move On

Past is past and I want to move on
Bidding for success in a time of my own
I am the master of my destiny
With whatever luck that is thrown to me

My broken heart I will try to mend
While somebody is waiting at the bend
Who will come to my rescue so soon
Can I recognize you with the light from the moon?
