and

making music with them."

"Dream Catcher..."

"When the deep purple falls over sleepy garden walls

And the stars begin to twinkle in the night...

In the mist of a memory

you wander on back to me...

Breathing my name with a sigh.

In the still of the night

once again I hold you tight.

Though you're gone,

your love lives on when moonlight beams.

And as long as my heart will beat,

sweet lover we'll always meet

Here in my

deep purple dreams."

~Lyrics by Mitchell Parish, music by Peter De Rose.

(Written in 1934 as a piano composition - lyrics added in 1939)

Black Heart Series #4

"Within your heart, keep one still, secret spot where dreams may go."

~Louise Driscoll

"Just Wondering..."

Does one's checkered past

continually burn deeply within the heart

transforming hope into ashes

or

does it add needed fuel and energy to one's spirit

and

brightly color the palette of love and life?

Hmmm....

Black Heart Series #3

"A joyful heart is the inevitable result of a heart

burning with love."

to be ready when occasion demands."

is having words in your heart that you can't utter."
