Analysis of Skipping a stone
Charles Fields II 1955 (Fort Bragg, NC)
By any mellow mood equation
So it seems
this heart is taken
You have gotten under my skin,
Why should i try to deny it
When clearly
you are the star In my prayers hopes and dreams
i sing of what you are to me
You are kind compassionate caring
Sharing our visions as we kiss
Look one another
in the eye as our hearts dance together
Skipping a stone
Passion flows from here to eternity
Touching every star
Whenever you and i feel naughty
we nasty kiss igniting, kindling
Feeding the passion with the pulse
Until it gets so strong
gravity
Overcomes our other senses
And we push pull each other
Towards some quiet place
we go
To celebrate moments of expressions
We can no longer contain in our hearts mind
Skipping a stone
Adventurous, we look across eternal seas of time
To rediscover all the lovers creeds
Spoken between those
Who have ever had a love to share
Love expressions
Too powerful to let go of
As i surrender my heart to you
For a moment of bliss
when our love tides coincide
We tie our tongues together
As we do our ritual love dance
Loving and daring,
Oblivious to
What you are or are not wearing
You are beautiful to me
You are the messenger
You deliver love magic
We send to one another
From voices deep within
Spoken in a language without words
Quietly understood between our hearts
Skipping a stone
Here, as i lay dreaming
No doubt in heat
Drifting in passions warm embrace
Navigating the waters of our hearts
On this our journey
Singing of love and of life
In the Love
The moon and stars
