I am Keeper of The Secrets.
I am Singer of The Song.
Ponder stars & love's begin,
as Elders chant my name within.
Desirous, hunger, still unknown,
I keep the secrets,
sing the songs.

I am Goddess, b'neath the moon,
sway to feel the rhythmic tune--
reaching down to touch the dew,
I worry that the stars cry too.
Shedding tears for unknown long...
I am keeper of the secrets.
I am singer of the song.

I am aware that danger lurks.
And yes, 'tis true that fire burns.
Remembering days of laughter free,
prod ember of the dying me--
I pray to find serenity.
Keeper of no secrets sworn
singing song forevermore.


(Michael made me do it.)

I know it's been a long road
To get these towns behind me and I
Will gladly reap what we may sow--
I am there for you ...
and you're there for me ...
Are you waiting for
Heart in hand
Woman and man
See me where I stand I am
Heart
Heart in hand

serenity,
     I have to thank Michael for making you do it.  It is wonderful.  I like the images you brought to me, strong and powerful, yet compassionate.    Very good!
