Whispering Words Chattering Muse Drifting through Oceans Seasonal Hues Life’s colors Painted visions of you Laughter, brings your light into view Hearing you speak Soft and discreet Sounds only we hear Gently we meet Gliding on the waves Surrender! In a moment’s notice Dance of Secret Language And chance… © MaryLynn Gillaspie

Listen closely to Heaven Look around Feel the sound waves On and on Stories of Nature Tune in to all the Love Clear your mind of that chatter Talking Heads Does it matter? Wondering what they’re really saying Never still Unfulfilled Everywhere hear the playful sounds Beckoning you in to a dream They’re swirling around in your head Words left unsaid Listen instead Give it some time You want to quiet your mind It’s just talk Free to build your own castles Diggin’ deep from inside you Find a light Hiding in the shadows Baby, you know it’s talk Live for today Like it’s play Come what may Use your eagerness to fulfill Everything you instill Sharing in the secrets…… of Life Hey, free your mind Now’s the time Feel sublime Let this dance of Life carry you Anywhere you want it to Walkin’ in the Rhythm…. Of Life! Yea…. Just unwind You won’t mind Leave your worries behind Be Kind © MaryLynn Gillaspie

Have a seat, just for a time. Tell me what’s on your mind I’ll tell you what’s on mine, too Bring us to a thoughtful place, a kind of soft embrace A step toward the light . . . If We Could Change . . . I no we’re sailing blue, why don’t we give it up for true?  (Maybe we could) set it down tonight I know you feel it’s true. Woman I turn it back to you I know we can get there when we try . . . If We Could Change . . . And if we could change just a thing or two There’d be a photograph in a frame by the window Of Me and You So stay just a little while, talk it through take a snapshot of our dreams . . . Slip into a dream or two. Show me how our world is new Arriving in time and place Teach me things we never knew. A sublime breakthrough On a secret path… If We Could Change Sharing a portrait of our lives. Can we live in new surprise (Maybe we could) set it down tonight Our likeness set in two. The decision’s up to you. I know we can get there when we try… If We Could Change © Kip Kuepper/MaryLynn Gillaspie

Every night Lying down to close my eyes Letting go to softly Enter new surprise Visions of colorful invitation A portal opens wide: Destination! Now I’m flying, running in the open air But everywhere I’m running to Leads to a stair (despair??) Upwards is downwards And I’m turned around Slip into a window All without a sound Thought I saw a rainbow-colored butterfly Walk into the room Before he said goodbye Everything around me Started falling down Then magically I’m lifted high above the ground Turning, tumbling Tryin’ to keep me from stumbling Entrance/Exit All topsy-turvy What’s next?! (a)Waken/Broken Spellbound Visions are all spoken All I can do is try to find my way home Promises keeping Silences weeping Flying too high I can’t touch the ground When I’m waking I’m dreaming Under the spell Lucid recalling Hypnotic farewell And it’s all I can do to try to find my way…. Waking and dreaming Silences weeping Flying too high I can’t touch the ground When I’m waking I’m broken Visions are spoken Lucid recalling I’m not yet home When I’m turning I’m tumbling Dreams begin crumbling Flying too high I can’t touch the ground When I’m waking I’m dreaming Under the spell Lucid recalling Hypnotic farewell And it’s all I can do to try to find my way…. © MaryLynn Gillaspie

Lying here with all these memories Facing where I saw you last Standing in the fallen forest Loving you is all I ask Trusting in the joy of sorrow Asking for the hand of grace Joining you in all tomorrows Giving in to find your face … And fall into a world where we’re riding on the Wings of dreams and shadows from above Free-falling in our cast of love … Here I find you … Knowing I will never leave you Seeing you on every path Nothing ever can forsake you Walk with me till our last breath… Your light shines brightly every day I know you’re never far away…. The ocean sings of living It’s nothing less than everything I ever wanted to embrace…. Knowing I will never leave you Seeing you on every path Nothing ever can forsake you Walk with me till our last breath… Your light shines brightly every day I know you’re never far away… Turn around and face me now And view a world apart, that’s how I’m here Wherever you are… Trusting in the joy of sorrow Asking for the hand of grace Joining you in all tomorrows Giving in to find your face … And fall into a world where we’re riding on the Wings of dreams and shadows from above Free-falling in our cast of love … Here I find you … Lying here with all these memories Facing where you saw me last Standing in the fallen forest Loving you is all I ask © MaryLynn Gillaspie
