Like Never Before Sometimes I wonder what it would be like to take a solemn flight. To fly away and sail the freeways with not one single thought, What it would be like to release or generate my very own light. What it would be like to never be webbed caught or sought. If I was there and you were here I’d bounce back and we’d both fair. I’d turn every bit of it around and make it all work out. I’d balance the roaring Seas and a seashell I’d share. I’d hold it to my ear listening for your shout. I’d run up on big white puffy clouds and play with the Sun. I’d look down upon you and rub your aching head. I’d tap your shoulder and show you where we really begun. I’d silently listen very carefully to every word you have said. I’d come and go, You’d never know. I’d sing and dance, And I’d prance. I’d never really leave you, You’d be lost without a clue. I’d carry you away. And make you a new day. If only you knew the real me, If only you could open your eyes and see. We’d forever be the two, That always knew. If I could take a day, I’d turn it into night. I’d shine a light, And be on my way. I’d cover the storms, And make new forms. I’d shadow the Moon, And come back real soon. I’d care for you once more, Like never before. © Copyright: Ann Rich 2006

“The Child Within” I’m all grown up Father and all I can do is keep looking back. I’ve traveled a long road just to be standing here on this track. Many of my tears have been laid to rest and my smile I now seek. Bruised and battered I cover the little girl that grows inside, Yellow blankets and satin pink pillows to comfort her when she’s weak! She seeks to hide! I’m all grown up Mother and all I can do is keep looking ahead. I’ve rode the Oceans waves just to be alive and not feel dead. Many of my laughs have been put to a test and my smile I never found. The Child Within, they all attack! The Child Within they are all meek. The Child Within, they all fed, The Child within, they are all bound! She lost but found! In a world so far away, Treasures and castles were her path, It is where she always went to play. Beautiful gardens and flowing rivers is where she took her very first bath. Like watering a tree, that little girl just grew and grew and grew, Finally, she broke free and was clear from every single one of you! © Copyright: 2006 Ann Rich

Instantly In just a moment or two I shall shew just only to you, Much bluer skies up so high you can not help but sigh. You will have to ask yourself why so shy and ready to die. You’ll be in such lieu of what is new to just a gathered few. Of all the grains and crops that prospered and grew. Of all of the wills that fizzled out and died in a lie. Of all of your unanswered questions to my answers of why. Of all of the moments we gained or lost in time even when we knew. Of all of every bit of single day and every bit of single night. Those shadows that fell over me I never quite got. But the Sun and the Moon not once left my sight. Bringing me a sharp beaming blue ray of light everyone has sought. So I just wrap it around my little finger and point to a Star, And then instantly I know exactly where it is that you are. © Copyright: Ann Rich 2007

The Key Master An about face I took with you. Like lightning instantly I knew In the wind is a breath you blew. Suddenly I felt lives of a fresher air. And automatically I had not one care. Amazingly we both have it all to share Like candy to a baby you certainly are. You tempt me to travel from way afar. I’d swear to God you’re a shooting Star. I will dance with you at midnight on the Moon. Swinging you around but brought back by noon. Your sense of time will be off or you’d be a loon, I will shift you out of balance and knock you over. You will fall into water fountains of my holy clover. But by then you’d be stuck wanting this moreover. What a ingenious trap of footsteps that stood in front of me. An about face I took with thee so here I am and so I shall be. I’m the key master to locksmiths of all eyes that did not see. © Copyright: Ann Rich 2008

Clothed With the Sun and Moon She whistles in the wind playing a harp on the shore. Her destination is not known she restores with a grin. Restraints she deplores when making a new friend. She shelters lambs and walks with lions that roar. She is from a long time before. She has a message to send. She begins at the very end. She is not one to ignore. Stars follow here everywhere she goes. Mountains shrink when they hear her voice. Grains of sands make way just to feel her toes. Angels sing and praise her by their own choice. She is clothed with the Sun and Moon up under her feet. Dressed with gold and diamonds even the Earth can’t compete. © Copyright: Ann Rich 2006

Oh Destinies Child Oh destinies child you are. Granted and given a chore. Take one for her and Him. Take two for them and those. Keep one for yourself and them. Where you are no one knows. You are a breeze in the wind, From beginning to the very end! Oh destinies child ye shall remain. Timing worketh wonders the same. You were meant to be one for all. Take this world so great and small. I give to you a deeply planted seed. Grow it slow and nurture it very fast. You will never find yourself in need. You are sown your first and your last. © Copyright: Ann Rich 2006

“THE FREE SPIRIT” Blinded by the light? Ah, such a bright light it is. The mystical magic rushes through your veins with so much bliss. Enticed you are! Your conflicts with priorities are now such a vague little thought. Magnetism’s taken your control so you’ve submitted because you’ve lost. You've gone much too far in thought of mind, you’re so very warm and oh how you want more! Ah, the free spirit has indulged and now you are free to fly with this soar! Never such a high for they are nonexistent, but where were you? Your soul bottles all of your magical moments your merits are capped for later use. Your whole being erupts and dissolves into bundles of your own scattered volcanic ash. Explosive satisfaction can no longer be withheld. Penetrated by this impact hides a man you have truly never once felt. Instantly you rise with the power and glory of this newfound strength you’ve managed to stash. Analytical reasoning becomes prominent but you’re still much, much too warm. Ah, the free spirit has indulged and the fires of passion you have indeed scorched and burned! Speechless, you are stunned from this sudden capture of all that’s consumed on the inside. Up in the clouds and aimless but never quite this high! These are the things that you’ve always wanted to know but never once dared to explore. Life has just adapted the ultimate drift in your glide. This stimulation has intensified the center of a man living inside of a brand new core. You are your own natural high and you’re steadily climbing for all or more. You come trembling holding no pride as you bear your all to the uninhibited. Ah, the free spirit has indulged and your depth has been very well exhibited! Uninhibited expression absorbs the touch that you now can feel. The warmth of your touch is fertile in the prairie and productive in all of the fields. Feeling your insides tingle in this swell of delight, Your body simply continues to rise as you climb. Lifeless in motion and all is simply just a matter of passing through your own passing time. Self-satisfaction explodes far beyond your self-recognition, Such a release to no longer be confined! Placing priorities in perspective has now become obsolete, You’ve been set free from this tiny little cage. Ah, the free spirit has indulged engraving your mind, body and soul to search and save! Passion has been well defined in the man that you are. So much pressure to be released from the depths living inside of you! Floating in the clouds of strange new auras your mind has drifted ahead with the miles afar. Enchanted by mystery that lingers such intrigue, You are mesmerized with the things you never knew. Caught in the puff of these clouds, You’re breathless from these things you’ve never even once had. Ignition of life is forever yours and guaranteed! Finally you’ve captured the essence of these higher manly needs. Feeling the heat rise higher you’re suddenly intoxicated with provoking thoughts you now have. Ah, the free spirit has indulged and is rapidly a flow through veins of a brand new thriving lad! Finally you’re complete because you are now where you belong. You have felt the mystical magic rushing through its very powerful magical wand. Absorbing all of life’s sensations, you’ve touched them all in all. Captivated by the unknown hides a man that quickly dives in for this free fall, Feeling the moment to just let it all go is an ecstasy that’s forbidden only by you. Ah, the free spirit lives alive thriving inside and knows that eventually you will to! © Copyright: 1997 Ann Rich

Love and Trust: Conquering the Battle Within Can we love and not trust? And who is to say that we can trust and not love? There seems to be an imbalance when trust precedes love. But why is there no apparent imbalance when love precedes trust? This is the battle that needs conquered in the core of a soul. Without love and trust fused as one there is nothing. Without love there is nothing, Without trust there is nothing! However, without trust, But with just love there is something worth inquiry. Love can stand alone as to where trust has no foundation to stand by itself, Unless of course love connects them as one from within! So where is the balance which we maintain ourselves into believing? That without trust there is nothing when there is still love? If there was no love and simply trust, Where is our battle within? And what would be the point of conquering such? Which of the two carries the strength of its true value? And if one is less than the other then there must be an imbalance, And if this is so, then one must certainly carry true strength in its value! So, if only one carries its true strength, Where does that leave the other when it takes two to fuse as one? Could it be that trust is the shield that protects the love? And that love is the armor that protects the trust, And that this must stay intact to produce two souls as one? So, if one is out of balance, Then there must be a battle within two souls fused as one. And if this is so, conquering the battle within lies only with the core of the soul, In which the two have fused as one! So now we have three components compressed into one that fused by two. So how do we balance what is out of balance, When what was three compressed into one that fused by two? Could it be that what is compressed and already fused within the core, Contains the power to override such imbalances which fused by two, And if this is so, Then the one that fused by two split back into one, And one of greater strength and value than the other! The one that fused by two and into one is fused permanently, Because it originally fused by two! If two are now split into one and one is permanently fused, Then what becomes of the three components that all fused as one? It takes love and trust to fuse as one, To enter the souls of the two that became one core, In which it took three components within the soul to make one! Once the soul has fused with the two that makes one, The compression within the core becomes the only one. If you can love without trust, Then love without trust exists within, And if trust is without love, The core never surfaces to conquer the battle within, Therefore, it must not exist within, And if it doesn’t exist within, Then where is its value in strength and what would be the point? Trust has no means of survival without love, Because it is love that gives trust its existing life to exist in life. When two split and become one of each, The imbalance lies with trust and love, And still each remains sturdy as does the core of the soul. So if trust has the ability to imbalance what has fused as one? Then its true value in strength is tremendous, To break away from what is permanently fused as one. And if this is so, Then love has its true value in strength, For its stability to maintain such imbalances! And if the core of the soul has the power to override these imbalances, Then why does it remain neutral and not correct such indifferences? There must be a hidden component and if that is so, It must lie within strength! So if strength plays within such imbalances, Then strength splits into two, And those two being strength and weakness. And if this is so, We have a weakness in strength that disrupts two that fused into one, And one that compressed into the core, And the core can only remain neutral. So which one carries its true value in strength? It must be weakness, And if this is so, It must be trust! Because the weakness allows the trust to imbalance what has been fused permanently. And if that is so, Then love upholds its true value in strength. Because of its sturdiness in maintaining such imbalances! So the battle within to conquer, Lies within the core of the soul, Which is permanently fused as one? And if this is so, life within will remain in neutral forever. For me to simply say, To not have trust, You have nothing, When there is love is impossible as I see it. (C) Copyright: Ann Rich 1998

You Make Me Real You are my sweetest dream, It is one I can never let go, It is one I know I know. It is where you seem To be all I will ever deem. You are deep in my heart, Giving me an extra beat to jump, And sometimes, it is a runaway thump, You are my freshest brand new start, For me to be a master of this kindred art! You are forever in my mind, You are a treasure I must find, You make it so real, I’m in you and you are all I can feel. I promise to make you real this time! You are in my soul, I am in you, I make you whole, You make me real to. I swear you are all I will ever do! © Copyright Ann Rich 2006
