Passions Bold ~ Frames of Mind ~ Opus 6

Tones, textures, treasure of time

Passions bold, lyrical and gracefully divine

Sounding brush strokes of the perceived

Color, form, in expressions conceived

Drama, musical portraits in soulful splendor

To the artistry of ALL in sweet surrender

Breath, heart and light, this beckoning to heed

The music, colors pulsing, 'tis the Creator's creed

Hear I the canvas in tones of passion and reflection

Touching all sensibilities in sounding perfection.

The Dance ~ Folds of Magenta

Rhythmic be the pulsing 

Passion in fires of expression

Deep be the breath, receiving, giving

Sweet be the surrender

Rapture in revelation

Tango Tango Tango...

...a dream... sweet surrender...

a dream
slumber's sweet surrender
mystical ethereal array
a casting call
for players of the light
be this the theater of my soul
a dream
slumber's sweet surrender.

Sweet Surrender

this body, this mind, a beckoning call
sweet surrender to slumber's lure
waves of light in darkness be
sleep's vista, an enchanted sea.
