C J MILLER
He flew among the stars
escaping from someone who loved him
because he was too young
to understand
despite all her begging he still left
without knowing that he would be haunted
by regret.

On his strange exploit
he met many a people
one after the other he taught them
invaluable lessons
for they all were living a life
that was useless

Our prince landed on earth
where he met a fox
someone who taught him how to love
and be loved.

The prince, now sickened with guilt and regret.
took his unwilling leave
knowing he must return to the one he left
so with these final words
the fox let him leave.

One sees clearly only with the heart.
Anything essential is invisible to the eyes
Inspired by The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
Priceless is the air we breathe,
priceless is water.

Priceless are the drops of rain
that fill up all the oceans.

Priceless is the Moon and priceless is the Sun.
Priceless is your love for me—
so pure and true.

Priceless is the cool breeze
on a sunny day.

Priceless is a river
flowing through a barren landscape.

And priceless is your smile to me.
Love me always, like only you can—

You're the sole custodian of my heart,
keep it safe till the end of time.
Here we are
       this and now  
          never turn your heart away !
Hear the song
that comes out strong
                then sweet ...
pure upon your lips of red

Birds of paradise
              fly high
           as they soar towards
                         the sun !

Here we are
                you and I
                        living for the other
                            as if we'll never die !

Éclair My Heart

Fill me up with custard’s glow,  
soft as secrets whispered low.  
Chocolate coat our midnight vows,  
each bite a bow that time allows.  

Glossy tease of vanilla sighs—  
declare your love in pastry cries.

....bow instead of bough, so the spelling hints at its pronouncing.
