  Marriage

  by Margene Wiese-Baier

  I look in a floor length mirror that holds tomorrow.

  I’m about to get married – not a young giddy bride, but years older and wiser.

  Putting my past behind to start a new adventure.

  My white lace veil covers my eyes, but I can see.

  My shoulders are caressed with fine silk and my skin enjoys the touch of its gentleness.

  I see the strength and wisdom that brought me to this place in my life.

  I coo to myself as if in a trance ready for flight in readiness to soar to new heights like an eagle.

  I am that eagle ready to meet my mate.

  Ready to start our life together.

  Ready to build a nest softened with the down of our feathers.

  Branch by branch we will intertwine our foundation together.

  We will talk of love to each other through our beaks.

  A love song will engage our every movement.

  We will enjoy our oneness and want to be together for all eternity.

  We will soar together in perfect harmony.

  We will see nothing but beauty surrounding us.

  The mountains capped with the purity of snow.

  The frosted trees after a refreshing rain holding tightly to their leaves to protect all that they hold beneath them.

  The earth covered with pine needles and soft sod that withhold the footprints of all who walk there.

  The lakes below of crystal blue ecstasy with tongues of water lapping at their beaches.

  The buffalo that thunders across the plains thankful to be forgotten by the hunters of yesteryear.

  The coyote plays with her kits and waits patiently for the return of her mate.

  Brother Elk watching his Harem bathing in a nearby lake.

  We land to refresh ourselves in the coolness of a mountain stream and I look in and see my reflection and see the promises of tomorrow.

  Would You Just Let Me Love You ?

  by Margene Wiese-Baier

  Would you just let me love you

  Like I want to love you

  It will be okay

  Just want to hear you say

  That you love me too

  If you let me love you

  Like I want to love you

  It will be okay

  To say you love me too

  I can hardly wait

  For you to see

  That I would be good for you

  Don’t you understand?

  I will not demand

  Your love

  I will always stay

  Because I love you that way

  So, let me love you…it will be okay

  Don’t you know we were destined to be together

  It was by design

  I am the part that you have been missing

  I am not just for kissing

  So, let me love you…the way I want to love you

  I have waited long enough for your caress

  So, if you are ready…let it be steady

  So, just let me love you

  The way I want love you and

  It will be okay to say you love me too

  You’re Going To Wait Too Long

  by Margene Wiese-Baier

  You’re going to wait too Long

  And I’ll be gone

  You thought I could wait forever

  Well you were sure Wrong

  The Man for Me has come on Strong

  Now I have to tell you

  You waited too Long

  I am Thanking God

  That He did not Answer My Prayer

  Because you sure weren’t there

  When I needed someone that cared

  ‘Cause I need someone that has been there all along

  I needed to be pursued

  Not taken for Granted

  That I would wait forever.

  Man you got that one wrong

  Now go on your way

  I hope you don’t wait this long

  Before you tell another that you love her

  So, I will say Good Bye

  ‘Cause I have a Wedding to attend to

  I’m in Love.. and about to say I Do!

  I Do ... I Do ... I Do…

  and it Ain’t to you…
