Paths can cross and undulate
The sun will rise and darkness falls
Doves and ravens let out their calls</p>
<p>Alone I watch and scrutinize
Alone I wait to see the signs
Alone I sit in patience still
Alone I ponder greater will</p>
<p>Seasons come and seasons go
Round again, to and fro
Yet I sit and yet I wait
Will it ever [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[<p>Rain falls
I sit and ponder
I wonder and dream
I contemplate</p>
<p>Rain falls
I sit and relax
I unwind and rest
I meditate</p>
<p>Rain falls
The sound fills the silence
It calms and seduces
Rain falls</p>

The power she has
It permeates my soul
Makes me better than I am</p>
<p>I long to hold her
To stroke her hair
To kiss her lips
Bring her a smile</p>
<p>She deserves happiness
To be content
She deserves a love
That brings fulfillment</p>
<p>I wonder when
I can caress her cheek
I wonder when
I can kiss her hand</p>
<p>I hope that day
Will come for us

		<description><![CDATA[<p>Circle cast around the room
Elements enjoined
We sit and share our hearts and joys
Opening ourselves</p>
<p>Wood and stone
Incense smoke
Warmth of fire
Water stilled</p>
<p>Flow of energy
Hopes and dreams
Food and drink
We celebrate</p>

Attention to every detail
Delicate look
Inner strength</p>
<p>Gentle scent added
It will not fade
It will not wilt
It will always be there</p>

		<description><![CDATA[<p>Pointy ears and leather armor
Hiding in the shadows
Too bad you hit the trap
And are now a block of ice</p>
<p>Bouncy red arrow on your head
Azrael getting toothy with it
Pokey arrows in your head
And now the little rogue is dead</p>
