TWO
One and one create a two, In the afternoon
A time of two,
In the dark of night, early morning strikes
The clock at two.
In the park walk a man and woman, hand In
Hand they are two,
Feet In the sand, once a girl I knew, we were
one but we were two.
I've loved only once as I've shared my life with
Few, only two,
Now It Is that this man walks alone, he has
Wandering feet of two.
In a world seen In time, time lost, the passing
Of time, Years of two,
Time to understand why there Is no longer us,
The way we were two.
Remember the love, a day when we were something,
Thoughts of two,
I remember yesterday was today, I think of you
And the passing years of two.

SAIL WITH ME
SAIL WITH ME
Give me this day, this moment In time,
Dear friend,
Come on board, come with me on a magical
Journey.
If love Is In your hear, If care Is In your
soul, sweet one,
Sail away, sail with me across the horizon,
Beyond, far beyond.
Let the wind carry us through the morning fog,
Into the rising sun,
Together we watch as whales and dolphins sing
To all that listen.
The water rises and falls as we glide across
Gods' playground,
Come sit close, take hold of this hand, lay
Your head upon
My strong shoulder as my words to you say let
Me be your man.
Sail with me darling as the sun goes down and
The stars awake,
Dream with me as we traavel Into the night,
Goodnight.

MY MIND IS AN ISLAND
MY MIND IS AN ISLAND
My mind Is an Island, many places to roam,
Different things' that I see when I'm on my
Own.
If wander I do, to far away,
Lost might I be In this land made for me.
See as I do and think as I may,
There are beautiful things' In my thoughts'
Every day.
I can find my way back to where It Is I
should be,
If I'm looking the right way or a trail I
Might leave.
My Island can be peaceful and sunny or stormy
And dark,
I'd rather be happy and have my Island be a
Walk in the park.
Keith Garrett
HILLS OF DARKNESS
HILLS' OF DARKNESS
Through the hills' I walk to find a place,
Of peace and happiness for a home I'll make.
Escape I will from times of darkness,
Into the light of day where I want to be.
Leave behind things' of the past,
Onward I walk till I find my path.
As my travels' through the hills' continue,
See do I clearer from my eyes.
These hills' of darkness I leave behind,
Out In the open, of better things' I'll find.
Keith Garrett
A MOMENT IN TIME
"A MOMENT IN TIME"
A speck of dust, a trickle of water,
Soon would blow with the wind and dry
Into nothing.
Our time s now fore we are a whisper wanting
To be heard,
A short period for laughter, remembered for
What we leave.
For so long has time existed, the world, the
Universe so large,
We are but a fragment, a particle of all that
Was created.
A moment In time was this gift we were given
From God above,
A moment to see and love all there Is to
Understand from this.
Where we go from here we shall not know, but
Hold no fear,
Like many fallen leaves from a tree we are one,
We disappear.
Keith Garrett
FLIGHT
FLIGHT
There up high I stare to the wide open sky,
Watch as I do you circle round, and round.
Free to fly, soar with the wind, I see you fly,
What is it that you see as you drift through
The air?
Spread those wings and sail, sail to anywhere,
Beneath the stars, under heaven above, fly.
What the lord has given to you is the gift of
Flight,
Fly away, fly away, get lost into the night.
Created were you by he without a face,
Spirit in the sky will take you on a special
Flight.
Make your journey through the clouds moving by,
into the sun that shines from so far away.
Finish your flight, goodbye, I say farewell,
Fly, fly far away.

7 MINUTES
7 MINUTES
We all have 7 minutes before something
We must do,
The same time before work is done and time
To go home.
7 minutes waiting or 7 minutes up, what be
The Circumstance,
7 minutes in the shower, 7 minutes on the
Phone,
7 minutes before dinner, another 7 minutes
All alone.
Time is of the essence, time never stands
Very still,
7 minutes late just may save your life, right
On time, goodbye.
In only 7 minutes, from good to bad, your world
Has changed,
Snooze for an extra 7 minutes, it may do you a
World of good.
7 minutes a long time to suffer, 7 minutes to
Love and dream.
Keith Garrett
DREAMS
DREAMS'
Dreams,' like the hopes and wishes that
Rest in our hearts,
Some come true, If for us only a shattered few,
Like you.
Dreams' are a look Into the future of our
Wanting thoughts,
Reasons' and seasons' for them to be or be not.
Dreams' may bring love to a heart so lonely
And of care,
What Is a dream If never with another shared.
I dream of one day when a dreamers' heart
Finds mine,
We'll walk as one but two different lives.
Keith Garrett
SOMETIMES
"SOMETIMES"
Sometimes I wait for the telephone to ring,
A wanting for a voice that does not sing.
Sometimes I dream about and sometimes I cry,
Love and peace are held deep Inside, understand.
Sometimes I feel that I have to go away, I stay,
So many things to do as I work and play, listen.
Sometimes I'm a very tired and complicated soul,
I'll keep on pushing till the day grows old.
Sometimes I battle the Invisible fight, my
Fight,
Something to prove as my time gets closer to
The light.
Sometimes I search for an Imagined hope of love,
Can not find that which does not wish to be found.
Sometimes I think that I am not seen by many eyes,
Perhaps at times my mind Is closed and It Is I who
Is blind.
Sometimes I wonder If the world does not need me,
As I discover a wanting for more that It holds.
SOMETIMES Keith Garrett
SOUNDS IN THE WIND
SOUNDS' IN THE WIND
The wind has no sound unless obstacles to
Blow around or between,
Through nothing can It pass, an opening
Must make way for it.
Travels' and swirls' across the sky with
Force and power,
Since the existence of time It remains'
Alive but unseen.
The crackling of branches and twigs from
The trees,
Rustling of the leaves moving through the
Shrubs, wind has sound.
Through chimneys' you can hear the wind
Whistle,
Fences creek, chimes let you know the wind
Is here.
Windows' vibrate and trashcans' hit the ground
Like drumbeats,
From our ears we hear sounds' In the wind.
