Love Bides Its Time

She was eighteen, I was twenty

The first time that we met

I was much too young and foolish

To recognize an Angel yet

For two years we walked common ground

So close, but far apart

No way of comprehending

She would one day own my heart

In time we went our separate ways

I wandered on my own

In the company of others

Always feeling so alone

I settled for some feelings

That were never as they seamed

I could never find the Angel

I saw only when I dreamed

And so the years just slipped away

The dream began to fade

Like lines in some forgotten script

The parts I never played

Until one day, to my surprise 

This Angel reappeared

She comforted my aching heart

The loneliness I feared

A friendship soon developed

That led to love so true

A dream of love I thought was gone

My tired heart, made new

And now I share my life with her

My heart, my love, my soul

This Angel is my everything

Her love has made me whole

Don't think that love won't find you

For it found a heart like mine

Love comes when you are ready

Until then, it bides its time

Sacred Circle

There is a sacred circle

That is several centuries old

Where you'll find the greatest treasures

That cannot be bought or sold

Where everyone is welcome

And equal in this place

Inside walls of brick and mortar

It is love that fills this space

Here peace is more than just a dream

And justice is the light

That guides us to a better world

And through the darkest night

All differences are set aside

Defined by what we share

Acceptance without judgement

A love that is so rare

Each soul completes this circle

As it was always planned

 We pass the bread and share the wine

One people hand in hand
