Memories

Snowflakes are falling

Laying a blanket on the ground

Hushing all the noise

Silence is so profound

You could walk away

That’s not what you are going to do

Just a little while closer

Just to be here with you

I’ve got your memories

They are all here with me

I’ve got your memories

For when you leave

Promise to come back

When you get a moment in your day

I will spend some time

Thinking of things to say

While words may escape

Floating as if I hadn’t been there

I am all around

I will make you be aware

I’ve got your memories

They are all here with me

I’ve got your memories

For when you leave

Every night you cry my name

Life will never be the same

I am glad I meant that much to you

Two people in love now feeling blue

Step Lightly

Step lightly

You can’t keep dancing on my toes

Step lightly

It won't be long before everyone knows

Step lightly

You want a world that’s just your own

Step lightly

You want to control what you’ve grown

Step Lightly

As you dance around the room

Step lightly

The music ends much too soon

Step lightly

The light bulbs flash in your face

Step lightly

For a new world to embrace

Step Lightly

Fill My Heart

Slow and gentle

Yet moving with fire

Fuelled by passion

Filled with desire

There is nothing wrong with

Wanting what inspires

Every minute

Lifting every day

Every still second

A mind at play

Wanting your warm touch

More than I can say

You fill my heart

My love does grow

Deeper with understanding

Deeper with what I know

My mind does see

My eyes do compel

A scene, a fragrance

It’s not a hard sell

My love is open

I hope you can tell

Still Searching

Adulation

Riches

Complicated

Niches

Searching for something new

Searching for something to do

Still searching

To get it right

Contemplation

Desiring

Adoration

Admiring

Searching for something new

Searching for something to do

Still searching

To get it right

Walking around

In a daze

Hurting is found

Be unfazed

Searching for something new

Searching for something to do

Still searching

To get it right

Wandering around

On the street

Greetings abound

Trust who you meet

Searching for something new

Searching for something to do

Still searching

To get it right

Just A Clone

Same hair

Same clothes

Same chin

Same nose

Same smile

Same woes

Same life

Same toes

Same DNA

Same pedigree

Same laughter

Same just like me

Not just a twin

Not a parent in sight

Just a separate life

Doesn’t make it right

And in the end

We will still be alone

Even if we are

Just a clone

by Bill Ferguson

All Roads

All roads

Travel through here

Crossing paths

Bringing you near

Bold thoughts

With strong premise

Raise some plans

That may hold interest

Life goes on

On the breeze

Smiling faces

What you need

Filling hearts

Feeling love

Come on home

Ir’s what you need

All your life

You look to find

What is best

Best you can do

If you’re lucky

You will see your plan

Fill it with love

Love for you

There are times

When her voice calls me

Floating on the wind

Captured in the trees

I don't need a road map

To discover where you are

Or where you’ve been

Or what you need

All the roads

Lead to here

To your heart

Filled with warmth

And now you’re here

Right beside me

Breathing love

Breathing life

by Bill Ferguson

Pass

Pass the hat

Pass the buck

Pass your turn

With a little luck

Pass gas

Pass go

Pass the grade

Pass you know

Passover

Overpass

Pull your name

Out of a hat

Pass the gravy

Pass the cheese

Pass on love

If you please

Pass the road

Pass the salt

Past your prime

It’s not your fault

I'm Waiting

I’m Waiting

I’m waiting

Waiting for you

I’m waiting

For something new

Waiting for the moment to arrive

Waiting for the moment to come alive

I am waiting

Waiting for you

Time to live

Time to heal

Time for everything

To be real

Time is arriving

And it’s right on time

I’m waiting

Waiting just for you

I’m waiting

Waiting’s nothing new

Waiting for it to become real

Waiting for it’s true appeal

I’m waiting

Waiting for you

For Only You

Timeless is the night

There are many songs to be sung

So many details to be wrung

So much in life to be done

I’m glad at times like this

I see you standing there

In light of the moon

In the call of a lonely loon

In traffic midday noon

My heart longs for

Warmth as it seeks

Comfort in your arms

You may never know

How much you mean to me

My words can’t help you see

The depth of what I feel for you

Words you do utter

Sets my heart all a flutter

Reacting to you like no other

Moments captured

As candid photos

Living in my soul

I try to understand

Why I feel the way I do

You’ve captured something

On a level that

Takes my breath away

There is so much love inside

Being held for only you
