Whenever songbirds trill a melody The world again regains its harmony I join anew the lovely rhapsody I thought was lost for all eternity. Whenever rainbows arch across the sky Reminding me that raging storms all die My spirit soars again and can’t deny The hope that’s born within that lifts it high. Whenever lapping waves caress the shore And seagulls glide above the ocean’s roar Serenity sublime rolls on once more; In peaceful swells my soul is held secure. Whenever gentle breezes kiss my face, Surround me in the warmest of embrace, I think again of you; time can’t erase The treasures safely stored in memory's place. 8/24/2000 |

Whenever gentle breezes kiss my face, Surround me in the warmest of embrace, I think again of you; time can’t erase The treasures safely stored in memory's place. Such beautiful words in every fashion. Loved the last verse most of all. |
