The Dream Boat

Come aboard my dream boat
Let's sail through the milky way
In the starry night
To the land of far away

Come aboard my dream boat
We'll go beyond the moon
Traversing blue sky and racing ahead
To claim our boon

Come aboard my dream boat
Let' vanish into the misty shrouds
Of softly
Gliding clouds

Hide behind the
Gossamer covers
And become
Divine lovers

Echoes

Just as disembodied shadows chase me
Sometimes, whispers are hot on my heels
I run, I hide, away from the voices, go to
The most silent places the mountains, the hills
But to my chagrin, echoes of my footsteps,
My breathlessness, and my desperate sighs,
Follow me. they are more vociferous
In my lonely room, they are
Soft whispers in a desolate field,
The most clamorous echoes
Are in my heart, I hear them
When I close my eyes
