Here are some poems.

My Innermost Being

Oh beloved come along with me
Over the oceans over the sea
As far as the eye can see
Deepest darkness seen and heard
Standing in the light of the morning sun
Come beloved come along
Life is a playground to me
Oh beloved stay with me
My beloved is found
We speak the same sound
She takes me by the hand
Together not parted because we are one
It’s for her I am singing this song
Oh beloved come along

I just tell a story
Right from the heart
The question
The answer
Are never apart

I live my life
With coloured wings
Reach for the stars
Oh what beauty it brings
Live life to the fullest
So no opportunity missed
Living my life
With coloured wings
