Across The Distance
Everything in nature is beautiful
Like her peace
The unflinching respect she has for herself
Down deep
For although she is shy
She never wavers in her beliefs
She's like the wind when it is slight
Yet constant
She's like the softness in the music
Of a mother's lullaby
Like the dream, when you awaken
With a smile
For many years I have known
Of her existence
And I've tried so many paths
Across the distance
But when I recognized
The peace and quiet
In her movements
My soul screamed in sweet surprise
For the day had finally arrived
When I fell into her smile
And felt downΒ deep inside
That I was home
Finally home
Where I belonged,
There,
Across the distance...

My Dear Tony,
For so many years, I lingered in rage
With vague vacillations, of my life how to gauge
But one day in the distance, I saw guiding lights
Now in Beauties abode, I am home and forthright
Peace, Love, and Happiness,
