 *eyes of innocence*

 Children see the world
 through eyes of innocence
 everything is new to them
 like sleeping in a tent

 Pennies are the treasures
 of a little girl
 when money had no meaning
 and does not rule her world

 Walking through a field
 picking wild flowers
 a bear goes walking by
 but she ignores this beast of power.

 She stars in amazement 
 at the hawk above
 flying on wings of gold
 graceful as a dove

 Everything is beautiful
 from frogs to tiny flowers
 and her friend is the St. bernard
 the giant beast that walks beside her.

 only will a child
 sleep upon the floor
 with her arms drapped around
 this giant dog that she adores

 And even though she is so tiny
 in this great big world
 with her eyes of innocence
 nothing can hurt this little girl

       *The Future*
 Hunting through my dreams
 I wonder what I'm searching for
 Why I'm always hidding
 I wonder what I'm running towards

 Is it reality snapping at my heels
 as I search for better things
 a safer place, a warmer heart
 that only time will bring

 Time and time we wait
 for the world to change
 we just sit here every day
 as we slowly start to age...

 In my dreams I'm searching
 For the Life I will never see
 I dream about who I could of been
 and who I will never be

           *KEY*
 Each day you hold the key
 each night I call to thee
 A gate locked, a towering wall
 and there you stand, with your silver key

 you stand and stare at the wall
 then walk on and ingore the call
 and each night you walk on by
 and each night you hear my silent cry

 but yet the gate remains locked
 and you still hold the key
 so the gate remains forever locked
 and my heart will never be free

 forever will I call to you
 each night goes flying by
 dreams are all forgotten
 until you unlock the wall of lies

      *Dragon On the Pedestal*
the Dragon on the pedestal
glowing like the flaming sun
guarding the swirling blue crystal
in flaming swirls the colors run...

Scales of golden red
and eyes of emerald fire
Master of mysteries
and ruler of deceptions and desires.

he waits for his master
The Mysterious Goddess of magic
who makes the world so intreging
and sometimes creates such havoc

in the distant, the dark lord waits
the crystal of magic, he wishes to take
he sends his minions, in the dead of night
to take the crystal, the source of light

the crystal of magic, the gates to the worlds
the entrance to her land, in the magical swirls
through the dragon he must go, to get to the gate
for on the other side, his mistress waits

a test of his wisdom,  his strength and his mind
to beat the mystic dragon, who has lived for all time
spells of magic do no harm, to the ancient dragon of light
for only with your mind, can you beat this dragon's might

Armies fall before him, without a single blow
nothing can get near, the dragon with his deadly glow..
The dark lord must speak to him, if he truely dares.
but be wary of his trickery, and his hypnotizing stare..

For the glowing crystal, the dark lord must surely wait
for the hand of his lady, that he wishes to take

       *Days Go Walking By*

As I sit and watch 
the days go walking by
 on legs so long
and strides so wide
I could never catch up
even if I tried
 I run a little faster
But nothing seems to matter
 The days keep going by
faster faster faster..

 Then there comes a time
When they go so slow
 I have to give them a push 
  Just to get them to go
 They drag their feet behind them
  when they use to fly
 Now they go so slowly
 I almost want to cry

 *Shadows Of Reality*
 shadows walk my dreams
 on the borders of my reality
 who they are
 They will not show
 where they came from
 I just don't know
 I travel through my dreams
 to the place where time stands still
 I seem to move silently along
 with no thought or will
 The landscape is so perfect
 as only found in dreams
 wonderous creatures all around
 like the unicorn by the stream
 she seems to always be here
 hidding in the shadows
 dancing among the trees at night
 as graceful as a sparrow
 here I can rest and play
 because dreams go on for eternity
 For this is my world of dreams
 at the borders of my reality

   *Alone*
One who stands alone
away from all the others
singled out for her silent ways
no one to call sister or brother

She who stands alone
hidden in the shadows
hidden from the strangers
with their words that hurt like arrows.

As she walks alone
she finds peace in her dreams
here they can not find here
and no one hears her screams

Here she lives alone
in the shadows of her mind
away from all the others
from now to the end of time...

  *Judging the book from the cover*
If you ever looked at me
would you tell me what you see
a little girl all aglow
seeming to be happy, or is it just a show
and every man she ever loved
then broke her heart just because..
the time for hating came and passed
as her life was torn and trashed..
but if you looked at me to see
the pains that are deep inside of me
you would not see it if you looked
for the cover hides the meaning of the book..

      *The Albino Unicorn*
From the rhelm of dreams he was called 
white as the crystal snow 
an evil aura surounds him 
blood red eyes, with their firey glow 

Shining in the silent night 
the ancient albino stepped forth 
and legends tell of the dread 
rought by this one horned horse 

every step he takes 
brings death to the peaceful land 
the grass withers and dies 
where ever his deathly hoofs land 

swiftly he travels through the forest
insearch of the one who calls
who has the strength to master the Unicorn
and summon him from his fiery halls..

standing in the distance
a figure draped in robes of black
waits patiently for the creature
to travel the winding track

the albino reaches the summit
and greets it's new master here
the mistress in the night
the beautiful lady with the silky black hair

for only can a women
with a heart of stone
can call the albino unicorn
from his flaming home

and together they ride through the land
bring death where ever they go
living on the unfortunate souls
who happen to be walking thier road

They travel over the towering mountains
and fly over the icey streams
across the open plains they thunder
in defiance the stallion screams

as the night draws to an end
the unicorn returns once more
to the hill top where he first met
the beautiful lady by the shore

and then he turns and walks away
through the forest to his home
until he is called once more
by the lady with the heart of stone

******** MINI POEMS************

Some test the water
  When the Moon is full
Others walk the oceans depths
  or sit idle by a pool...

Some Tred the water
   to show that they have strength
 some die to show their brave
  and others pray they do not sink.

Some walk the land
  In search of all thats good
 Some go hunting to prove thier might 
  and others hide within the woods..

Some search the skies
  A place they'll never go
 While others play by the sea
  or walk among the trees and snow...
