"Silhouette The Shadow "

Silhouette the shadow
Sing lullabies to dreamful sleep
man of mountains while sunshine your brow
Kiss on wet shiny lips
Dance notes of my soul
on your ringlet curls
you’re a lover, romance, a playboy at heart
Sparkle the eyes of wistful blue smile
and I’ve found the man of my dreams
too bad it won’t be you
Your voice will haunt this child of innocence.
Goodnight

"Dreamed One"

He caught my eye
wandering lazily about his lips
my thought upon his words of passion
soul portrayed as note by note he sings of forgotten woe
of one unfortunate love
another and he smiles
shiny lights of lips and eyes
never cease you playing
in my mind
your childish way
so obvious
to laugh, you flatter me
and I approve
because
well, it’s you
I understand. I’ve no name and neither do you.
If you wish.

Heidi M. Smith, 2/22/98 Melbourne, Florida

"Whispers"

She spoke in whispers
slightly heard out loud
of singing sunshine kisses
closed eyes saw heart to smile
She heard wind-sung melodies
of lyre harp a flute
unplayed lulabies of birth
closed mouths of sleepless babes
She saw butterflies of color
rainbowing rivers white
of droplets milky flowers
closed palms requesting life.

-HMS Heidi M. Smith, May 26, 1998.

"Journey"

They’ve written songs
about our…wanderings
trying to explain
the…call
of highway living
yet they fall…short
’cause they can’t understand
the lie of the…land
claiming you as it’s own
set free…spirit
of nomad man
let us walk…hand in hand
across this luscious land

-HMS Heidi M. Smith 9/26/98 Asbury College, Kentucky
