Passions, It’s Nice To Know Ye

You came around when I needed you,
you were there when I didn’t look,
you’ve come to be the better part of me
like the pages of a well-worn book

troubled spirits, distressed souls
under close scrutiny, lost control
forward bound and heaven bent
angels listened, then Passions sent.

You came around when I needed you,
you were there when I didn’t look,
you’ve come to be the better part of me
like the pages of a well-worn book.

As in real life, there’s history,
a page for you, a page for me,
lessons learned, lessons taught ~
and the ears that I have sought.

You came around when I needed you,
you were there when I didn’t look,
you’ve come to be the better part of me
like the pages of a well-worn book.

So to Passions and its Poets here,
know to me you are so dear,
you’ve come to be the better part of me
like pages of a worn book's history...

This was so excellent Karilea.

The melody flowed as I read it,
as it truly is, a wonderful song.

This is one of the great ones!


Have a great weekend!

Yes, there are a lot of talented poets here who are a blessing to many because of there openness, sharing a part of themselves through poetry.

Amazing as alway lovely lady.

Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.  Unknown
