CAMELOT FANTASIES

Intermezzo Of My Soul


Author: Joyce Hemsley


I searched for you
and I found you
Intermezzo of my soul.
I build my life around you
Mine, is a loving role.

I will cling to you forever
No hope without your call,
Be here in winter weather
in summer and in Fall.

I searched for you
And I found you, so come
Now make me whole,
Eager arms await you,
Intermezzo of my soul.



HOPE IS A THING WITH FEATHERS

Author: Emily Dickinson



Hope is a thing with feathers
That perches in the soul
And sings a tune without words
And never stops at all.

And sweetest, in the gale, is heard
And sore must be the storm
That could abash the little bird
That keeps so many warm.

I've heard it in the chilliest land
And on the strangest sea
Yet, never, in extremity
It ask a crumb of me.





I've Dreamed of Loving You for Many Years 

Author: Nicholas Gordon


I've dreamed of loving you for many years,
Loving you each day and night, each hour,
Loving till you flow into my tears,
And I into the garden where you flower.
Of course I must be me, as you are you,
But just as bushes planted side by side
So intertwine one cannot tell they're two,
We will through love and time be unified.
So have I dreamed, though we have been apart
So long that I of life with you despaired,
Holding wounded hope within my heart
That through these frozen years it might be spared.
The world is a redaction of the dream.
Our greatest pain deep longings shall redeem.



Joy Of My Heart

Author: Joyce Hemsley
 

Dear Joy of my heart,
I am weary ~ so weary
of thinking of you.

Memories linger in my head,
memoirs start me thinking
love could never be dead.
I see a picture quite clearly
of your two eyes of blue,
I tell you now with sincerity
there is no forgetting you,
because I love you dearly,
I always thought you knew.

Dear Joy of my heart,
I am weary ~ so weary
of thinking of you.



Memory of Roses

Author: Joyce Hemsley


 Sorrow I feel, for I must leave you
standing in the midnight air;
my heart belongs to a family of roses,
your heart belongs to a maiden fair.

Each of us made our promises
to keep the vows and keep them well.
I cannot stay, I must not linger,
the time has come to say farewell.

I shall miss your kindly gestures
cheering this heart and soul of mine.
Someday soon we will surely meet
when romance and music combine.

Until then,  my wonderful one,
You will sleep deep within my mind.
I kiss you now... for I am leaving
to greet the roses I left behind.
