Poetry In Motion



Dearest Gerry,
On your special day it seems especially fitting to say
How much your existence gives us joy every day
You strutted into our lives and our hearts you did steal
With your prodigious talent and charismatic appeal
We went looking for answers about this talented Scot
And after much searching found the place we had sought
A Haven for us to share our admiration of you
A place to feel safe and make new friends too
We want you to know how much you have done
You have given us hours of entertainment and fun
You stirred our lives with new energy and passion
And made yourself unforgettable in your own fashion
If you never make another movie or do another play
You would still have given a lot that not many could say
You renewed our zest for living and gave us a lift
You gave us each other and that is a wonderful gift

T
he Magician
Sleight of hand lift of an enigmatic brow
Conjuring passion and fire from thin air

The swooping of your cloak...
Folding enchantment around me...
Carrying me in magic's embrace
Effortlessly you draw illusion from the mirror

The Actor, the Spell-maker....
Imprinting the reflection of your beautiful soul
Shimmering, singing and dreaming
Within mine...

Your voice an undeniable incantation
Calling to me...
Calling me to breathe...
Inspiring me to create...
Freeing me to feel...
Igniting me to burn...
Urging me to love...
and to at last.... Be blissfully me

LOVE LOST
In silence he waits alone and forlorn
Will he hear her tonight or be anguished till morn

His heart aches for her his love overflows
He hides in the shadows so she never knows

The world has shunned him will his love do the same
He hopes and he prays she will call out his name

Surrounded by darkness and trembling with fear
His soul fills with passion he desires to appear

Turn around my love your Phantom is here
Come my love sing to me and be near

But alas there's another who stands by her side
Pain and anger engulf him his soul has just died

His eyes fill with tears what does this all mean
Poor phantom of darkness has lost his Christine!

Though years have gone by his life torn apart
his love, his Christine has remained in his heart.

I wish that I was one so fair
As Andre' Marek’s Lady Claire
To inspire love so strong and deep
That in another century keeps

A man of strength and loyalty
Who stayed behind and did not flee.
When Marek traveled to the past
He found a love he knew would last.

Facing foes he showed no fear
He won the battle but lost his ear
Then knew that he was meant to stay,
So sent his friends back on their way.

When the dig continued upon the site
Of that once and great historic fight
Uncovered words where he laid to rest
Said his love and life were the very best

He let them know it was no mistake
His heart knew what he had at stake
Friends don’t mourn for Marek’s fate
For in that distant time was his soul mate.
