Men In Kilts

If only you had been,
that Celtic kind of guy.
If only I had told you,
Celts always catch my eye.
Cableknit socks,
is what you should've worn.
A MacBeth shawl,
a nice kilt and a sporran.
You don't need bagpipes,
but you wouldn't look real.
They might be a little akward,
though good is how you'll feel.
Men who are Celts,
are men in kilts.
Oh how I need,
my men in kilts.

How I yearn for your love,
so that we may embrace
a love all too powerful
to explain on this page
Your face is like snow,
so innocent and serene
as it melts from the mountains
and into a stream
Your body's the rose
that blooms night and day
your legs are the petals
so soft yet so frail
Your feet are the wings
that carry you here
I'm letting you know
that my love is sincere

Traveler's Song

Where e'er I may go
When snowflakes like fallen angels dance silent through the air
When rain makes silver rivers sing on dusty roads
When in autumn the leaves flutter, copper, crimson, and gold
When in spring all the green life returns to clothe the earth
With every bright blossom I chance upon in my journeys
With every shining glimpse of starlight through a blanket of clouds
With every footfall and every word through the long days and into twilight
I'll remember the life I've left behind me.

Kristi Ferebee, "Minstrelgirl"
