Valentine Sung by Sandra to O’Neill Brothers melody of The Water is Wide
My love is far and out of sight
As I sit and contemplate this night
Of all the forces strong and weak
That thwart our love e’en as I speak
.
But though my love is far away
Still in my heart, still to this day,
The fire of love burns bright and strong
And will e’en though the wait is long
.
For no man e’er could take his place
This man of dignity and grace
My heart is given for all time
To you my love my Valentine ♥

One Way Ticket To Cairo
Far off in the land of the sun and thousand minarets
Deep in the city full of sandy streets and cigarettes
There waits a man for the woman he has never met
Dreaming of love he puts his wish out on the internet
.
There lives a girl in the land of opportunity
She longs for a man who is warm and walks with dignity
Turning to the East with the help of synchronicity
He catches her eye and with Hello she seals their destiny
She’s got a one way, one way ticket to Cairo
She’s got a one way, one way ticket to love Continue reading

Step with patience into life
As life will not be hurried
Let haste dissolve
Lest its waves thwart the coming
Of your very hearts desire
Release and be in faith
Where all life’s blessings will be received

When life just gets me down
On the days when I can hardly carry on
Where is the answer to this yearning heart of mine?
I rest and think of you
Soft as the breeze is to the trees
Light as the jasmine in the coolness of the morn
Warm as the sunshine in the air
Your love is always there Continue reading
The Wedding Day
The day of celebration’s here
Guests await, hearts full of cheer
To witness joining of two hearts
That choose ne’er more to be apart
Who knows just when that feeling came
When life would never be the same
‘My love, my heart, you are my life
‘Honour me, become my wife’
Now bride and groom in sparkling beauty
Honoured guests with special duties
Friends and family bright and gay
Gather on this happy day Continue reading
I look at you
Into your eyes that once were full of life
I look at you
Into your heart that used to shine so bright
Your love your laugh your song
That brought us joy, where have they gone
Have we lost you, our dear beloved one
Young bright creative spirit
All the ways of life to learn
Tossed in seas of stormy weather
Misread the signs, took a wrong turn Continue reading
There are no words for the misery that has befallen me
There is no solace for the loss I most fear
How long I have held fast to that life line
Through so many stormy winters and even rare summer days Continue reading
Darling
Wipe away your tears
Breathe deep and sigh
He was not alone
You were beside him when he died
He had the best son and friend
With him to the end
You were his last blessing Continue reading
A light went out today
I lit a candle
For a great man and dear friend
We knew him as Dr Fouad
A man most kind
A brilliant mind
The most loyal and humble
We knew him, we loved him
Dr Fouad Continue reading
Once there was a young girl
From Ireland’s west she came
Born and raised in Athenry
Maryrose was her name
She grew up with her family
And in the fields she played
No work was there for Father dear
So to Manchester they sailed
Tooralooraloora Tooralooralye
Maryrose from Ireland
From a place called Athenry Continue reading
