BROOKETTI'S DREAM.

ANGELS ARE WAITING


The woman hoisted the little girl onto her knee and cradled her head on her swelling belly.

"Can you feel it now? There, just there, that's your new brother."

"Oh yes mommy yes, I can feel it," cried the little girl excitedly. "She's kicking my hand."

"So," said mother, "you've decided it's going to be a girl have you then. Well, whatever it is, is just fine by us."

"When can I see her mommy?"
The woman laughed, "In a little while honey, you'll see."

"It's been a long wait, hasn't it mommy?"

"Not really lovey, it only seems long."

"She would have been my age, if I hadn't had to go back the first time."

The woman looked perplexed. "I'm sorry love, I don't know what you mean."

034;Well, if I had come that first time, she would have been born when I was."

"I'm still not with you honey."

"You know......... when I was in your tummy, the first time... when I had to go back, that's what I mean."

"Back where."

"To the waiting place. If I had come then, well, when you had another baby inside you, it would have been her," the girl said pointing to the huge lump, "but you sent me back and I had to wait, and she had to wait even longer, that's what I mean."

The woman looked at the girl, puzzled, then a dawning sense of realisation crept into her eyes making them sting with tears. It could not be possible, surely. All those years ago, when she was just seventeen and too young and innocent to understand. No surely not.... impossible.... and yet, there had been an aborted pregnancy, an unwanted child.

The girl lifted her head from the large swelling and looked with concern to her mother's face. "Don't cry mommy..... please don't cry.

ODE TO A SPECIAL FRIEND

YOU ARE THE GATEWAY,

THROUGH THE MEDIUM OF YOUR BEING
STEMS THE BOND OF LIFE ETERNAL,
WHERE ALL IS ONE IN RHYTHM,
YOUR PATH IS THE FLOW OF THE WIND,
NOT INFREQUENTLY HARSH AND CRUEL,
OFTEN SWEET AND GENTLE,
AND IN THE END EVER FAITHFUL,
YOU ARE NEVER TO BE ALONE,
AND YOUR HEART IS A MILLION TEMPLES,
YOUR EYES SEE WITHOUT LOOKING,
YOU HEAR WITHOUT LISTENING,
THE SHADOWS OF THE PAST ARE OVERWHELMED
WITHIN THE LIGHT OF YOUR GOODNESS
TOWARDS YOUR FELLOW BEINGS,
YOUR STRENGTH IS WITHIN SPIRIT,
YOUR COMPASSION WITHIN YOUR SOUL,
YOUR DELICATE PORCELAIN SHELL IS INDESTRUCTABLE,
THE VELVET WHISPERS OF YOUR MIND
ARE SHOUTS OF JOY FOR LIVING,
YOU ARE A MAGNET TO ALL WHO DARE TO HOPE,
THE KEY TO THE LOCKED MEMORIES OF TIME,
YOU WALK WITH INFINITE SHADOWS,
IN HARMONIOUS BALANCE WITH NATURE,
YOU ARE THE ENEMY OF DESPITE,
AND THE CHAMPION OF FULLFILMENT,
YOU ARE SURROUNDED BY THE ESSENCE OF LIFE,
THE SOFT GENTLE KISS OF THE ETERNAL,
YOU ARE THE GIFT OF BIRTH ANEW,
THE CROSSROADS OF MYRIAD STARS,
YOUR HEART BEATS AS A THOUSAND DRUMS,
THE LIGHT IN YOUR EYES SHINES LIKE A BEACON,
THESE CHARACTERISTICS ARE YOURS TO SHARE,
IN YOU IS THE INNER STRENGH OF ALL,
BELIEVE IN YOURSELF AND CULTIVATE,
SEEK ALWAYS THE TRUTH IN YOUR HEART,
LET OTHERS SEE YOUR SENSITIVITY ,
THEY TOO CAN FOLLOW AND LEARN,
AND MORE STILL SHARE IN THE WONDERS,
OF YOUR LIFES GIFTS.

TIME

IF TIME CAN BE OWNED,
THEN I CLAIM IT NOW, FOR US,
I DEMAND IT NOW AND FOREVER,
THIS IS OUR TIME, A TIME FOR LOVE,
IF TIME CAN BE OWNED,
THEN I STOP IT NOW, AT THIS MOMENT,
SO THAT THE WAY WE FEEL FOR EACH OTHER,
WILL LAST FOR ALL ETERNITY,
IF TIME CAN BE OWNED,
THEN WE WILL TREASURE IT,
EACH PASSING MOMENT WE ARE TOGETHER,
WILL LIVE A LIFE OF ITS OWN AND FLOURISH,

IF TIME CAN BE OWNED,
THEN I GIVE THIS GIFT TO YOU,
MY PAST, MY PRESENT, MY FUTURE,
MY LIFE I BESTOW TO YOU,

IF TIME CAN BE OWNED,
THEN WE WILL FILL IT WITH JOY,
AND ADD THE SWEET MEMORIES,
OF OUR LASTINGNESS TOGETHER,

IF TIME CAN BE OWNED,
THEN YOU ARE MY TIME, AND I YOURS,
AND WE SHALL OUTLIVE TIME ITSELF,
AND BECOME ONE IN THE PRESENCE OF GOD,

TRUE LOVE

A WONDROUS GIFT THIS LOVE SO TRUE,
THAT BRINGS SUNHINE TO A RAINY DAY,
JUST THE THOUGHT OF YOUR LOVING ARMS,
CAN CHASE ALL OF MY BLUES AWAY,
I CLOSE MY EYES IN DAYDREAMS WAKE,
AND YOU FILL MY MIND WITH DESIRES,
MY HEART BEATS A HUNDRED DRUMS,
AND THE BLAZE OF THOUSAND FIRES,
I DROWN IN THE POOLS OF YOUR EYES ,
AND NESTLE WITHIN YOUR SMILE,
THOUGHT THAT LIFE WOULD PASS ME BY,
BUT YOU MADE ME FEEL WORTHWHILE,
YOU ARE THE LIGHT THAT GUIDES MY WAY,
WHEN DARKNESS SHADOWS MY SOUL,
YOU HAVE CURED THIS ACHING HEART,
GAVE IT LIFE AND MADE IT WHOLE,
YOU ARE THE ESSENCE OF MY FAITH,
I HUNGER FOR YOUR EVERY TOUCH,
I GUESS THAT WHAT I'M TRYING TO SAY,
IS THAT I LOVE YOU SO VERY MUCH.

IF YOU ARE

IF I AM THE RHYTHM,
THEN YOU BE MY SONG,
IF I SHOULD GROW WEAKER,
THEN YOU MAKE ME STRONG,
IF MY SKY SHOULD BE CLOUDY,
YOUR EYES WILL SHINE BRIGHT,
IF I AM THE STARS,
THEN YOU BE MY NIGHT,
IF MY ARMS SHOULD FEEL EMPTY,
THEN FILL THEM WITH JOY,
IF YOU BE MY GIRL,
THEN I'LL BE YOUR BOY,
IF TIME LASTS FOREVER,
OUR MOMENT WILL LINGER,
IF I AM THE SONG,
THEN YOU ARE THE SINGER,
IF I AM THE MOTH,
THEN YOU ARE MY FLAME,
IF I LOVE YOU FOREVER,
WILL YOU DO THE SAME.
