THE WHITE ISLAND:
OR PLACE OF THE BLEST
In this world, the Isle of Dreams,
While we sit by sorrow's streams,
Tears and terrors are our themes,
Reciting:
But when once from hence we fly,
More and more approaching nigh
Unto young eternity,
Uniting
In that whiter Island, where
Things are evermore sincere:
Candour here, and lustre there,
Delighting:--
There no monstrous fancies shall
Out of hell an horror call,
To create, or cause at all
Affrighting.
There, in calm and cooling sleep,
We our eyes shall never steep,
But eternal watch shall keep,
Attending.
Pleasures such as shall pursue
Me immortalized, and you;
And fresh joys, as never too
Have ending.
~ Robert Herrick ~

Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ Sonnet of Faith Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ
Apparelled in a veil of grace,
Angst and despair showed its face.
Yet from your eyes a gleam did shine,
A hint of nature's grand design.
To teach us all that we must cope,
And never lose our faith and hope.
That all things bad and all things sad
Will be eclipsed by what makes us glad:
Love and trust in one another.
Wholesome values as father, mother.
Embracing our children sweet and fair,
Holding their hands, combing their hair.
These are the flames that within us burn,
The passions strong for which we yearn.
So while today your loss brings drear,
The morrow's sunshine will again appear.

Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ She Is Near to My Heart Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ
She is near to my heart as the meadow-flower to the earth;
she is sweet to me as sleep is to tired limbs.
My love for her is my life flowing in its fullness,
like a river in autumn flood,
running with serene abandonment.
My songs are one with my love,
like the murmur of a stream,
that sings with all its waves and current.

Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ Dreamer Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ
Deep in the heart of the Dreamer,
Are dreams he holds inside;
Spun on crystal star kissed nights,
'Neath a warm, inviting sky.
In dreams he drifted silently,
Beyond the world he knew;
Soaring there, beyond the clouds,
He spread his wings and flew.
In the pleasure of the moment,
Complications left behind;
The Dreamer found a sense of peace,
In the dreams he sought to find.
In quiet introspection,
The Dreamer weaves his dreams;
Forgetting life's realities,
He bids his spirit...sing.
Captured in that moment,
In the honesty of youth;
Hope that sings in the Dreamer's heart...
Someday...dreams will come true.

The Gift That You Are
Startled and fascinated by the beauty and fragility
of your wings,
I watch as you move
so gently
so quietly
almost unexpectedly
through my world.
And then I watch as you move on,
fluttering softly into the distance.
Pleading silently, I beg you,
please ... don't go.
I haven't yet had the time
to memorize
to remember
to understand
the uniqueness of the beauty that is yours.
I know I cannot hold you for long,
capturing you for my world.
But, rest gently with me
if only for a moment.
That I may treasure the memory
and the beauty of the
gift that you are.

Alan Pemberton
Through veils of peace may you ascend
To promised planes above
Where comfort shall await you
In those summerlands of love.
Although my grief is deep and raw
Although my pain is great
I know that you are still with me
I know that you will wait.
For in God's time we'll meet again
Of this I am quite sure
I loved you so much on this earth
In absence even more.
