Purple Triangle by Diana Mary Sharpton

Introduction: “The initial confrontation of the root is the most critical part of this journey.” ― Bruce Lengeman

In Purple Fields We Dance
Stay a little longer
come closer to my heart
Breathe dew breeze on my neck's nape
do not yet depart
Play for me bagpipe music
Blindfold all my starving fears
Let the dulcet tones of your voice
give us back those harvest years
Make of the citrus moon a ballroom
Hold me firmly from both hands
Lift me high to touch the star-sky
Show me how young peasants dance
Let my soothing fingers trail
across your caloused sun -soaked skin
In purple fields Come chase me
in that place our souls have been
Take me away with you
where this world is out of sight
Where unspoken thoughts and heartbeats
are enough to blaze the night.

"Hungry For Your Love"
I'm hungry for your love
I'm hungry for your love
I'm hungry for your love
But I can wait now

I'm on the telephone
And I am all alone
I'm on the telephone
And we're connected

[Chorus:]
I got such a lot of love
I wanna give it to you
I got such a lot of love
I wanna give it to you
I got such a lot of love
I wanna give it to you

And though we're far apart
You are here in my heart
And though we're far apart
You're part of me now

And after all the years
And after all the tears
And after all the tears
There's just the truth now

[Chorus]

Well, I'm hungry for your love
Hungry for your love
Well, I'm hungry, yeah, well, I'm hungry
For your love now

I love you in buckskin, yeah, yeah
I love you in buckskin, yeah, yeah
I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you
I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you
I love you now

I'm hungry for your love
I'm hungry for your love
I'm hungry for your love

"The Place" by Diana Mary Sharpton

Introduction:
Some say the glass is half full and blush,
Some say it’s half empty and sink,
I feel you are in the midst of,
reaching out for another awesome drink!”
― Jasleen Kaur Gumber

"Meet Me Halfway"
I can't go any further than this
I want you so badly, it's my biggest wish

cool, I spend my time just thinking thinking thinking bout you
Every single day yes, I'm really missin' missin' you
And all those things we used to used to used to used to do
Hey, girl, what's up? It used to used to be just me and you

I spend my time just thinking thinking thinking bout you
Every single day, yes I'm really mission mission you
And all those things we used to used to used to used to do
Hey, girl, what's up? What's up? What's up? What's up?

Can you meet me halfway, right at the borderline
That's where I'm gonna wait for you
I'll be looking out, night and day
Took my heart to the limit, and this is where I'll stay

I can't go any further than this
I want you so bad, it's my only wish

Girl, I travel 'round the world and even sail the seven seas
Across the universe I go to other galaxies
Just tell me where to go, just tell me where you wanna meet
I navigate myself myself to take me where you be

'Cause, girl, I want, I, I, I want you right now
I travel uptown (town) I travel downtown
I wanna have you around ('round) like every single day
I love you alway—way
I'll meet you halfway

Can you meet me halfway?
Right at the borderline
That's where I'm gonna wait for you
I'll be looking out, night and day
Took my heart to the limit, and this is where I'll stay

I can't go any further than this
I want you so bad, it's my only wish
I can't go any further than this
I want you so bad, it's my only wish

Let's walk the bridge to the other side
Just you and I, just you and I
I will fly, I'll fly the skies, for you and I, for you and I
I will try until I die, for you and I, for you and I, for, for you and I
For, for you and I, for, for you and I, for you and I

Can you meet me halfway?
Can you meet me halfway?
Can you meet me halfway?
Can you meet me halfway?

Meet me halfway, right at the borderline
That's where I'm gonna wait for you
I'll be looking out, night and day
Took my heart to the limit, and this is where I'll stay

I can't go any further than this
I want you so bad it's my only wish
I can't go any further than this
I want you so bad it's my only wish

"Burning Red" By Diana Mary Sharpton

Introduction: Between a million yesterdays and a million tomorrows, there's only one today. And I would never let it pass without telling you I'm thinking of you. Mitch Cuento

Shadows of Dawn
If you knew the beat in my heart, what would you say?
If you knew the color of this burn, would you even reach out or care?
If I died tomorrow, would you come to say goodbye?

Time keeps moving without notice...
One must speak out loud to be heard or keep quite in a lie.
I will look for the sunrise tomorrow to speak in the shadows of a cold autumn dawn...
And whisper to you... I Still ... Love You
Diana Mary Sharpton All rights reserved 2018 copyright

"Gentle On My Mind"
(originally by John Hartford)

It's knowing that your door is always open
And your path is free to walk
That makes me tend to leave my sleeping bag
Rolled up and stashed behind your couch
And it's knowing I'm not shackled
By forgotten words and bonds
And the ink stains that are dried upon some line
That keeps you on the backroads
By the rivers of my memory
That keeps you ever gentle on my mind

It's not clinging to the rocks and ivy
Planted on their columns now that bind me
Or something that somebody said
Because they thought we fit together walking
It's just knowing that the world will not be cursing
Or forgiving when I walk along some railroad track and find
That you're moving on the backroads
By the rivers of my memory
And for hours you're just gentle on my mind

Though the wheat fields and the clothes lines
And the junkyards and the highways come between us
And some other woman's cryin' to her mother
'Cause she turned and I was gone
I still might run in silence tears of joy might stain my face
And the summer sun might burn me 'til I'm blind
But not to where I cannot see you walkin' on the backroads
By the rivers flowing gentle on my mind

I dip my cup of soup back from a gurglin'
Cracklin' caldron in some train yard
My beard a rustling, cold towel, and
A dirty hat pulled low across my face
Through cupped hands 'round the tin can
I pretend to hold you to my breast and find
That you're waiting from the backroads
By the rivers of my memories
Ever smilin' ever gentle on my mind
Gentle on my mind
You're gentle on my mind

"Trinity Sunset" #Photography #DianaMarySharpton w/ Diana Krall "Wide River To Cross"#LoveOfMyLife

14/9/2018

"Trinity Sunset" by Diana Mary Sharpton

Introduction: "Not from the whole wide world I choose thee,
Sweetheart, light of the land and the sea!
The wide, wide world could not enclose thee,
For thou art the whole wide world to me." - R. W. Gilder

Talk To Me by Suzanne Hayasaki
Sit with me in the shade of this tree.
Tell me who you were, who you are,
And who it is you wish to be.
Talk to me of days gone by and days to come.
Talk to me of warm mornings, cool evenings,
And cold nights, writing by candlelight.

Tell me of the epic that will not come.
Tell me of the love poems that continue to flow,
Unread, unpublished, unappreciated,
Unseen by the eyes that inspire them.

Tell me of your ambitions, your wishes,
Your vision of what you could be
If someone would take the time to read
The words you put to paper so passionately.

Recite and I will listen.
Hypnotize me with your rhymes.
Lull me with the rhythms of your speech.
Create a complete world with your words
And let your voice lead us both
Where you want us to go.

The epic is an oral tradition.
Poetry is meant to be heard not read.
Don’t look for your story in the structure.
Don’t expect to work magic if you are counting feet.

Just be.
Just speak.
Just believe
That within you is beauty
And release it.

"Wide River To Cross"
There's a sound in the wind, blowing down the road I've been
I can hear it cry while shadows steal the Sun
But I can not look back now, come too far to turn around
And there's still a race ahead, I must run

I'm only half way home
I got a journey on,
Where I'll find the things I have lost
I've come a long, long road
Still I've got miles to go
I've got a wide, wide river to cross

I have stumbled, I have strayed
You can trace the tracks I've made
All across the memories, why aren't we gone
But I'm just a refugee, won't you sing a prayer for me
Cause sometimes even the strongest soldiers falls

I'm only half way home
I got a journey on,
Where I'll find the things I have lost
I've come a long, long road
Still I've got miles to go
I've got a wide, wide river to cross
I've got a wide, wide river to cross
I've got a wide, wide river to cross

Video: Diana Krall - Published on Sep 11, 2012

Personal Note:
To the man I love, I want you morning, noon and night. I think of you always, every minute of the day. What are you doing today? How did you feel? Did you laugh and think about me? Did you take long steps or sit down? Did you get angry and shrugged it off?

Dance with this gal my darling. The journey is not over yet. It's you that bring the sun to my rainy days and without you I am lost. Consistency spells affection. Affection is the response to my emotion, I have for you. You are the love of my life.
Diana

Blue Morning at Sea by Diana Mary Sharpton

Introduction:
“Maybe, if you can't get someone out of your head they were never meant to leave. Perhaps, they were meant to help change you into the person you have been waiting to become.”
― Shannon L. Alder

"Holding on"
by Rae Slager
I told him,
"I'm scared I'll drag you down"

and he looked me in the eyes
and he said,

"Babygirl,
I'll carry you on my shoulders"

and for this reason
I will be his wings

Hello Stranger
Shoo-bop, shoo-bop, my baby, shoo-bop, shoo-bop

Hello, stranger

It seems like a mighty long time
(Shoo-bop, shoo-bop, my baby)
It seems like a mighty long time

I my, my, my, my, I'm so glad

Yes I'm so glad you're here again
(Shoo-bop, shoo-bop, my baby, shoo-bop, shoo-bop)
(Shoo-bop, shoo-bop, my baby)

If you're not gonna stay
Please don't tease me like you did before
Because I still love you so although
It seems like a mighty long time
(Shoo-bop, shoo-bop, my baby)
It seems like a mighty long time

(Shoo-bop, shoo-bop, my baby, shoo-bop, shoo-bop)
I my, my, my, my

Seems like a mighty long time
(Shoo-bop, shoo-bop, my baby, shoo-bop, shoo-bop)
Feel so good
(Shoo-bop, shoo-bop, my baby, shoo-bop, shoo-bop)
To have you back again
(Shoo-bop, shoo-bop, my baby)

How long has it been?
(Shoo-bop, shoo-bop, my baby, shoo-bop, shoo-bop)
(Shoo-bop, shoo-bop, my baby, shoo-bop, shoo-bop)

Burning Sunset by Diana Mary Sharpton

Introduction:
“Ô, Wanderess, Wanderess
When did you feel your
most euphoric kiss?
Was I the source
of your greatest bliss? ... Yes!”
― Roman Payne

Heaven© Belladonna Cadaver
Your eyes,
your lips,
your hands,
I miss,
your kiss
your touch,
that fire
so much.
I'm under your spell,
I'm so hot for you,
my souls burns in hell.
My toes curl,
as you play with my hair,
my tummy tingles,
everytime you are near.
Heat,
blazing,
intense,
like a furnace
I go up in flames.
with you by my side,
around me, inside me,
I soar to the sky,
you're with me,
you guide me.
Your lips on my skin,
your fingers within,
your breath on my neck,
your legs within mine
you're glistening;
sweat, you're feeling my fire.
Take me higher again,
I wanna go to heaven!

"Let's Make A Night To Remember" (1)
I love the way you look tonight
With your hair hangin' down on your shoulders
N' I love the way you dance your slow sweet tango
The way you wanna do everything but talk
And how you stare at me with those "undress-me" eyes
Your breath on my body makes me warm inside

Let's make out - let's do something amazing
Let's do something that's all the way
Cuz I've never touched somebody like the way I touch
your body
Now I never want to let your body go...

Let's make a night - to remember
From January - to December
Let's make love - to excite us
A memory - to ignite us
Let's make honey baby - soft and tender
Let's make sugar darlin' - sweet surrender
Let's make a night - to remember - all life long

I love the way you move tonight
Beads of sweat drippin' down your skin
Me lying here - n' you lyin' there
Our shadows on the wall and our hands everywhere

Let's make out - let's do something amazing
Let's do something that's all the way
Cuz I've never touched somebody like the way I touch
your body
Now I never want to let your body go...

Let's make a night - to remember
From January - to December
Let's make love - to excite us
A memory - to ignite us
Let's make honey baby - soft and tender
Let's make sugar darlin' - sweet surrender
Let's make a night - to remember - all life long

I think about you all the time
Can't you see you drive me outta my mind
Well I'm never holdin' back again
Ya I never want this night to end
Cuz I've never touched somebody like the way I touch
your body
Now I never want to let your body go...

"Token Of Love" by Diana Mary Sharpton

Introduction: “Christmas is not as much about opening our presents as opening our hearts.” ~ Janice Maeditere

The Gift
by KYB
The best thing I ever received
Was given sometime ago
So precious and rare
More valued than gold.

It began when I met you
All wrapped up in a bow
As I pulled away the wrappings
Lo and Behold.

My heart beat faster
And my pulse began to race
I'll never forget that moment
Including time or place.

The best gift ever
Infiltrated my heart
I plan to keep you always
Forever to start.

Dear Sugar, I hope you are having a blessed and safe holiday.... I am thinking of you...xoxox

"Peace Rose & Her Air Plant" by Diana Mary Sharpton

Introduction:
“My heart only ever had one thought, one want. One need. Despite all, in spite of all...All my heart has ever wanted is you.”
― Stephanie Laurens

Need Your Love So Bad
I need someone’s hand to lead me through the night
I need someone’s arms to hold and squeeze me tight
And when the night begins and until it ends
Oh baby I need your love so bad

I need someone’s lips to feel next to mine
I need someone to stand up and tell me when I’m lying
And when the lights are low and till it’s time to go
Mmm I need your love so bad

So go home and give it up baby, bring it on home to me
Write it on a piece of paper so that it can be read to me
Tell me that you love me, stop driving me mad
Oh ‘cause I need, I need your love so bad

I need a soft voice to talk to me at night
Don’t you worry baby, we won’t fuss and fight
So listen to my plea and bring it on home to me
Ohh I need your love so bad

So go on and give it up, bring it on home to me
Oh put it on a piece of paper so it can be read to me
So tell me that you love me, please stop driving me mad
‘Cause I need, I need your love so bad

I need a soft voice to talk to me at night
Well don’t you worry baby, we won’t fuss and fight
So listen to my plea and bring it on home to me
Ohh I need your love so bad

Ohh because I need your love so bad
Ohh I need, ohh I need your love so bad, oh yeah

Sugar love you!

"Our Moment is Everything To Me" by Diana Mary Sharpton

Introduction:
“To be trusted is a greater compliment than being loved.”
― George MacDonald

Trust Me With Your Heart
by Kathleen Sheppard
Why does your heart grow doubtful dear?
Tense and beating, full of fear.
I keep with me your everlasting love,
and bless the day God sent you from above.

You remain my angel and I feel that I must,
tell you that within you, you have my trust.
My love is the tide, your soul is the shores,
you have my heart, do I have yours?

I'll belong to you till the very end,
and you will forever stay as my lover and friend.
It has been so good like this from the start,
so darling please, trust me with your heart.
I live for the moments between you and I my darling big or small. They are precious to me.

"The Air Plant & Peach Rose" By Diana Mary Sharpton

Introduction:

"Love is the most beautiful thing to have, hardest thing to earn & most painful thing to lose." ~ Unknown

Fate!
BY CAROLYN WELLS
Two shall be born the whole world wide apart,
And speak in different tongues, and pay their debts
In different kinds of coin; and give no heed
Each to the other’s being. And know not
That each might suit the other to a T,
If they were but correctly introduced.
And these, unconsciously, shall bend their steps,
Escaping Spaniards and defying war,
Unerringly toward the same trysting-place,
Albeit they know it not. Until at last
They enter the same door, and suddenly
They meet. And ere they’ve seen each other’s face
They fall into each other’s arms, upon
The Broadway cable car – and this is Fate!

You are all I need because love is a beautiful thing! Sugar

Rome - Just Once, Once More, Three Times #MUSICVIDEO w/"When You Touch Me" by MorganPayne & Photography by #DianaMarySharpton

16/5/2015

Photography by Diana Mary Sharpton titled "Lovers at Dawn"

Introduction:
"I breathe, and then he kisses me.
I've been kissed before. But nothing like this. He kisses me with surprising tenderness, for all of his gusty talk. Still cupping my face, he gently brushes his lips against mine, slowly, like he's memorizing what I feel like. My eyes close. My head swims with his smell, grass and sunshine and musky cologne. He kisses me again, a little more firmly, and then he pulls back to look down into my face.” ~ Cynthia Hand

When you touch me
When you touch me, I can't breathe.
It's like the ground below me starts to spin
and everything becomes irrelevant. I stop
thinking about everything else that matters,
because when you touch me, nothing else matters
but the goosebumps that rise upon my skin.

When you touch me, I close my eyes, hoping
that I can remember your warm hands caressing
every inch of my body forever. Behind my dark
eyelids, I see your beautiful smile and those eyes
that stare at me even when I beg you not to.

When you touch me, the little hairs rise on my arms
as I slide closer beneath your arms. I harshly inhale,
basking in your sweet scent that stains my pillows
well throughout the next morning when the sun
hints my lightly fogged windows and on to your face.

When you touch me, I shiver and gently place my lips
against yours, wishing I could stop time and we could
be here forever. My heart flutters as the butterflies
in my stomach become unbearable. I lay awake, watching
the slow and steady motion that your hand makes.

When you touch me, I feel unbelievably safe laying
there beside you.
When you touch me, I never want you to stop.
When you touch me with every single movement,
i fall more and more undeniably in love with you.
By MorganPayne

Rome - Just once, once more, three times
Now I know
Just what you need babe
Come on over here
Let me hold you
Theres a few things
You just might not know sugar
I'm so into you
and i love to see you smile
so when it's good love
coming down baby
I've got to make you feel just right baby
I love to hear you moan
I love to feel you groan
my baby, oh
just once, once more, three times baby
now take one moment
baby let's take our time
we got all night
we can drink the finest of wine
just take my rhythm
take it in stride babe
i love to feel your body all over mine
so when it's good love
coming down baby
I've got to make you feel just right baby
I love to hear you moan
I love to feel you groan
my baby, oh
just once, once more, three times baby
i've got to make you
feel just what it is
i love i love i love
i gotta make you call my name
I've got to make you feel just right baby
I love to hear you moan
I love to feel you groan
my baby, oh
just once, once more, three times baby

Diana Krall - The Nearness of You #MUSICVIDEO w/"Maybe you'll Remember" #Poetry by Pablo Neruda and Photography by #DianaMarySharpton

8/5/2015

Introduction:
"The way you let your hand rest in mine, my bewitching Sweetheart, fills me with happiness. It is the perfection of confiding love. Everything you do, the little unconscious things in particular, charms me and increases my sense of nearness to you, identification with you, till my heart is full to overflowing." ~ Woodrow Wilson

Photography by Diana Mary Sharpton titled "The Rose on Her Bed of Wheat"

Maybe you'll remember...
Maybe you'll remember that razor-faced man
who slipped out from the dark like a blade
and -- before we realized -- knew what was there:
he saw the smoke and concluded fire.

The pallid woman with black hair
rose like a fish from the abyss,
and the two of them built up a contraption,
armed to the teeth, against love.

Man and woman, they felled mountains and gardens,
they went down to the river, they scaled the walls,
they hoisted their atrocious artillery up the hill.

Then love knew it was called love.
And when I lifted my eyes to your name,
suddenly your heart showed me my way.
by Pablo Neruda

"Nearness of You"
Its not the pale moon that excites me
That thrills and delights me, oh no
Its just the nearness of you

It isn't your sweet conversation
That brings this sensation, oh no
Its just the nearness of you

When you're in my arms and I feel you so close to me
All my wildest dreams come true

I need no soft lights to enchant me
If you'll only grant me the right
To hold you ever so tight
And to feel in the night the nearness of you

Come closer baby let me near you.... let me touch... xoxox...
