This one (I Want) is one of my all-time favorites. I wish I could write more like this, with this rhyme scheme. Oh well. <img src="smile.gif" border="0">
______________
I Want

I want to dance in the snow with you.
I want to play in the rain.
I want to laugh on the rolling hills,
and run in the fields of grain.
I want to live my life with you
and not let go, not ever.
I want to be alone with you
and in your arms forever.
I want to kiss your laughing lips
and chase away your sorrow.
I want to lie down next to you
and do the same tomorrow.
I want to gaze into your eyes
and never look away.
I want to dive into your love
and there I want to stay.
I want to be your one and only,
never to let go.
And once I have you here beside me,
I will dance with you in the snow.

Golden Days

They were different, those days
Before the fountain stopped spouting
Before the crystal-clear water
stopped singing the songs
that cooled the summer's calling.
The days when all I could see
was your eyes, they sucked me in.

The halcyon days, those golden days
When the warm embrace of the pink-orange dawn
met the cool kiss of the royal dusk
with a twinkle or two in her eye.
And we could sleep and think.

The days when I knew all that you knew
when our minds used to converse
in the dewey morning light.
The days when I could feel you.
Our transparent touch.

Cool stuff Astro! First one sounds like it could be a pretty nice song <img src="wink.gif" border="0">

The first would make a beautiful song. I'd like to see someone like Sarah McLachlan sing it. Perhaps Enya if done in a New Age manner.

I couldn't agree more with you Shakey. Very nive Astrogirl!

I agree......you should find someone to put the notes to your words! <img src="biggrin.gif" border="0">

Hey, if you give me permission, I would love to try that out Astrogirl. I'm not the best music writer, but I love to try.

Amy, that would be awesome. Very flattering of you to ask!! Do you need me to add more words to it or anything? It's kinda short.

I'll let you know when I give it a try! Thanks a lot, I think I can have lots of fun with it. Maybe I'll try to get a mic and record it so you can see what it sounds like. But I'm not promissing anything <img src="tongue.gif" border="0">

Wow again, Astro!!! The first one was so earnest and heartfelt and the second was so colorful you could picture the sky. You are a true talent.

Thank you!!!
