****************************************************************************************************

 

01 Bring Me The Light

Bring me the light to dispel the darkness

 That I may rejoice as I am revived

Show me the way to warm hearts and faces

 To tell my loved ones that I am alive

   For this dreadful place so cold and lonely

    Has none of the things I once truly knew

  A royal domain, hollow and empty

    With no glorious sun or fresh morning dew

      It seems centuries have come and passed by                                    

        Leaving me to rule these shadowy depths

      Where dreams and desires mingle as I fly                       Queen of the South

        To glimpse the bright realms I once ago left                               Sonnet 070

          Come and lighten up my oceanic dome                                         Anglicia

          That joyful laughter may adorn my home                                        AD 2004

                              02 Let Your Heart Shine

Let your heart shine before my presence

 And make all the worlds around you happy 

For love in your heart is the true essence

 That greets my sign of enduring beauty

   I am a goddess of the raging seas

     Who rides my chariot upon the waves

   Helper of fishermen who hears their pleas

     And show my kindness to those who are brave

      I am a queen from a distant heaven                       

        A realm of joy in bright celestial lights       

Queen of the South                In a fool moon once to me was given             

Sonnet 071                              A mortal lover below my own heights        

Anglicia                                    I am now mother of those struggling souls

AD 2004                                   Who dearly nurtures and nurses them all    

                                                                                                    [Back]

 

03 Behold My Beauty

Behold my beauty with your sleepy eyes

  And feel my caress in the gentle breeze

For now I am here to give you a smile

  As you begin to feel my perfect bliss

   A fountainhead I am of womanhood

    A mountain spring of all feminine pride

  See within me all that is well and good

    Like a white moon that brightens up the night

      Let your inner sense touch my divine love                                    

        Where all my instincts coalesce as one

     Sensual and yet maternal is life                                           Queen of the South

        When I am expressed and my will is done                                  Sonnet 072

          Embrace me with your eternal feeling                                            Anglicia

          As I come gladly through my becoming                                          AD 2004

                                                              [Back]

 

                              04 I Am A Lady

I am a lady who runs the household

  With all diligence and good intention

Caring for my man who seeks precious gold

  And all his off-springs with kind attention

    I am a lady of the market place

      Who buys and sells goods with all my sisters

    Chatting all the while with smiles on my face

      In the great exchange of worldly traders

        I am a lady who stands in the dark                                

          Throughout the cold night waiting endlessly     

Queen of the South              Frequently condemned and pushed to the back         

Sonnet 073                            And yet sought after for short ecstasy                    

Anglicia                                      I am a lady many have desired                            

AD 2004                                      Receive me kindly if you so aspire                   

                                                                                          [Back]
