The Blasting Winds
Marcel Toussaint ©2007

The day woke up calm and grey
out of focus was this early display
with a slow advancing cloud
forming a gloomy enveloping shroud.

Even the clock seem to be still
nothing moved in the rolling hill
the trees stayed erect and stiff
edging a solid line at the start of the cliff.

A change of weather is expected sans delay
done with is the last cozy sunny day
a pleasant Autumn is taking its bow
giving way to the frowning Winter's brow.

All at once a boisterous crosswind
kept young trees bent; and pinned
their branches to the balcony railing
furiously shaking, slamming, bruising.

The wind took a lull stopping its blasting
a fine mist started the raining.
Of a sudden new violence hit the landscape
heavy drops let nothing dry escape.

Then the dancing of autumn leaves
swirled in the tempestuous weaves
with a rumbling symphony of exploding sound
to force us captive and housebound.

How Are You?
Marcel Toussaint ©1996

You have not been hearing from me,
Nor have I been hearing from you.
A reason? Wondering for clue,
May I ask for news, on my knee?
How are you?

There, There You Are
Marcel Toussaint ©1999

Lonely, I imagine how it would be
if your lover would let you free, yes, free.
Yes, everyday you would come over
with your kisses I would then feel better.

We hide from everyone in the park
we look for cover and meet in the dark
late, always late, when no one should be out.
Of our passion there is no doubt, no doubt.

Deep in my heart
there, there you are
deep in my heart
there, there you are.

I am stealing the love you have promised
I find it hard to look like a tourist.
I need your warm kisses evermore so
between our loving, time goes slow, so slow.

With your kisses I would then feel better
to me everyday you would come over
Lonely, I imagine how it would be
if your lover would let you free, yes, free.

Deep in my heart
there, there you are
deep in my heart
there, there you are.

Bond Of Happiness
Marcel Toussaint ©1996

The flame of love must always be alive,
Not to burn out to become an archive,
For it will bring joy and warmth to your heart,
A bond of happiness to never part.
