starsnstripesb_ribbonI will be walking one day
Down a street far away
And see a face in the crowd and smile
Knowing how you made me laugh
Hearing sweet echoes of you from the past
I will remember you.

Look in my eyes while you’re near
Tell me what’s happening here
See that I don’t want to say good-bye
Our love is frozen in time
I’ll be your champion and you will be mine
I will remember
I will remember you.

nywtc5

Later on
When this fire is an ember
Later on
When the night’s not so tender
Given time
Though it’s hard to remember darlin’
I will be holding
I’ll still be holding to you

So many years come and gone
And yet the memory is strong
One word we never could learn
Good-bye

nywtc3

True love is frozen in time
I’ll be your champion and you’ll be mine
I will remember you
So please remember
I will remember you
I will remember you

 

Song is “I Will Remember You”

One of the things that I thought I’d do here in this writers blog is to write and express my views/perspective/comments on one of my favorite reality shows, Dancing With The Stars.

Today, the cast for Season 9 (wow, that many already?!) was announced on ABC’s Good Morning America show this morning. They are:

Donny Osmond – singer, brother of Marie Osmond. Marie came in 3rd on the 5th season of DWTS, with her professional partner, Jonathan Roberts.

Mya – R&B singer and actress – I don’t know much about her.

Michael Irvin – Former NFL wide-receiver – he played for the Dallas Cowboys in the 1990s with Troy Aikman (QB) and Emmitt Smith (RB) who won the 3rd season of Dancing With The Stars with his professional partner Cheryl Burke.

Melissa Joan Hart – Actress (‘Sabrina the Teenage Witch’)

Kelly Osbourne – Singer, daughter of Sharon and Ozzie Osborne

Debi Mazar – Actress (‘Entourage’)

Chuck Liddell – Light heavyweight champion

Natalie Coughlin – Olympic gold medalist in swimming – I vaguely remember watching her compete in the 2008 Bejing Olympics.

Joanna Krupa – Swimsuit model – she’s the one that was paired with T.O. on that recent reality show, Superstars, and pretty much gave T.O. a tongue lashing for their losing in the first round of the competition.

Aaron Carter – singer – his older brother is Nick Carter, of Backstreet Boys fame.

Tom DeLay – Former House majority leader

Kathy Ireland – Model

Ashley Hamilton – Actor, son of former ‘Dancing’ contestant George Hamilton; previously married to Shannen Doherty and Angie Everhart.

Mark Dacascos – Actor, host of ‘Iron Chef America’ – now this is an interesting casting choice!

Louie Vito – Pro snowboarder

Macy Gray – Grammy-winning singer

At first glance, none of these names seem to stand out as being early contenders. So we’ll see!

When I look into Her eyes
I see prophecies mirrored
She, the High-born Lady
And I, Her Eagle-boi-Knight
Have shared multiple lifetimes
Never with celerity
But as a slow dance
Spiraling on a celestial stairway
Our bond preserving
Over time…. space….distance

Sweet surrender
Decided long ago
By a knight’s heart
With no regrets
No bonds to restrain
Except my will
My own choice
Freely given then
Freely given even now
Never diminished by
Time…space…distance

She welcomes my offering anew each time
My sweat and tears baptize Her altar
Her temple built and sustained
By my steadfast honor and devotion
Untarnished by vague resolutions
The daughters of Artemis weep with envy
At the sight of Her courtyard
Not a simple vanilla flavored garden
But an unparalleled Eden
Landscaped with the roses of my obesiance

She grants me sanctuary in Her castle
Her aura is the source of sunshine in my days
And an unapologetic fire
Blazing through my nights
I hear Her voice clear
As a flute in my silences
Our karmas sketched across the stars
Affirm the sacred path we’ve traveled
With wonders beyond envisioning
Still to be found

Neither the allure of virgin nymphs
Nor the wealth of a thousand silver medallions
Can ever correspond
To this sacred bond between Her and I
Tis as if gossamer threads
Entwine and encircle
Two kindred souls
Closer than Heaven itself
Tender moments
Balancing pockets of consupiscence
In exquisitie symbiotic exchanges
A cosmic connection
That continues to shine
Amongst the stars
That grace the skies of eternity

M’Lady……
I kneel before You
In love, honor and devotion
My gift to You is my all

Years ago, a horse named Majestic Prince
Came along and captured my young heart
Now every May and June since
I’ve looked forward to the Big Three

First Saturday of May every year
There’s the Kentucky Derby
A mile and a quarter it is, you hear
The Run for the Roses is the first jewel

Then the focus moves to Maryland
For the second jewel of the Triple Crown
Maryland, My Maryland, plays the band
As throughbred’s finest line up for the Preakness

Then the mile and half Belmont Stakes
Three weeks later in New York
And the final test of what it takes
To win third and final jewel of the crown
