Entire CD, "For the Sake of Love", is available at

Welcome to Keeping the Dream,
celebrating the human spirit. I'm Demian Yumei, singer/songwriter,
author and activist and the woman in the banner holding my grandson.
And we have a dream, he and I.
We dream of a world where every child is safe and every heart
feels loved. Let's dare to believe this is possible. Let's keep this dream close
to our hearts and breathe life into it through our lives.
You have a dream that remembers you. Maybe it's been a long time since you've walked with it, but it's there ready to take you on wing and soar to unimagined heights.
And your dreams, your beautiful heart and desire for goodness and truth and beauty is stronger than anything that may have happened to you in the past...or happening now
I know. I'm the daughter of a pedophile, and yes, I've been impacted, but not defined by it. There's a difference. Sometimes it's hard to see, but it's there and it's important.
And I've learned that no matter what has transpired or is transpiring, there is tremendous power in the present moment of a choice.
What about embracing yours, taking it back from your own doubts and fears or other people's dismissal?
It's not too late you know. I released my first CD, published my first book and welcomed my first
grandchild shortly before I turned 50.
And my adventure is just beginning!
DON'T wait for the perfect time! There's no such thing. There's only
now and now is always a good time to take your first step.

Near a shady wall a rose once grew, Budded and blossomed in God's free light, Watered and fed by morning dew, Shedding it's sweetness by day and by night.
As it grew and blossomed, fair and tall, Slowly rising to loftier height, It came to a crevice in the wall, Through which there shone a beam of light.
Onward it crept with added strength, With never a thought of fear of pride, It followed the light through the crevice length, And unfolded itself on the other side.
The light, the dew, the broadening view Were found the same as they were before, And it lost itself in beauties new, Breathing it's fragrance more and more. Shall claim of death cause us to grieve And make our courage faint and fall? Nay, let us faith and hope receive; The rose still grows beyond the wall.
Scattering fragrance far and wide Just as it did in days of yore, Just as it did on the other side, Just as it will, forever more.
When The Moon Is Riding High And Trembles In The Lake Below Then We Hover In It’s Ray And Amid The Sparkles Play While Rippling Waves Of Silver Flow
As Pure And Bright As That Gleaming Light We Watch The Eddying Circle's Bound And Within Those Lucid Rings We Dip Our Shining Wings And Scatter Showers Of Radiance Round When Softly Falls The Summer Shower Fleshing All The Earth With Green From The Cup Of Many A Flower While The Purple Shadows Lower We Drink The Crystal Rears Unseen
Then Come Away! No More Delay Our Joys And Our Revels Haste To Share Behold, Where Near Thee Wait As Subjects Of Our State The Shadowy Spirits Of The Air!
I Wish For You A Beautiful Week Ahead Filled With Both Relaxing And Refreshing ♪♫•*¨*•.¸¸❤¸¸.•*¨*•♫♪*CHeLsIA RoSe LaMbErT♪♫•*¨*•.¸¸❤¸¸.•*¨*•♫♪
Being with mom these last two weeks as she recovered from surgery has been a neat time in my mother's very infamous back yard and patio - with listening to the wonderful childhood memories of gardens she had when she was a young girl, it seems mother also had quite the fascination with the dragonflies that danced with their multiple colored florescent wings over the showy flowers and darting here and there didn't stop her from trying to capture them, if only for a little while in her small jar. Lady bugs was also a topic we enjoyed after one landed on me, and of course we both chimed at the same time, how lucky I am that one landed on me! Indeed - I am more than lucky - quite blessed to have one on one with mom and what a nice time it was and always is.
Wishing you a wonderful weekend, Demian! Thank you for your kindnesses and friendship! Hug You!! Monika -

M y world is full of contradictions Y earning for like-minded people
B red under the faith of something deeper E nlightenment being my sole pursuit S urrounded by images unseen to the eye T aught to withdraw from the obvious
F orests filled with fairies make my dreams R oads to heaven or hell make my choices I dle to the superficialities of common people E nchanted by the lure of angels in the streets N umb before the majesty of the occult D azed in the search of profound mysteries
I nside the maze of my brain I walk S tartled by the losses I have suffered
A constant struggle between reality and dreams Not easily sharing inner thoughts
A never ending craving for more than meets the eye N ot available to the trivial around me G eared by the belief of universal truth E ntitled by myself to dive deep within L ost feelings being my dungeon

If The World Is One Big Plan Why Must We Lose Our Innocence Why Have We Lost Our Paradise? Paralysed! Nothing To Give
The Chestnut Vender In The Rain Havn’t Seen It Since I Moved Away Please Tell Me what Am I Doing Here? These Strangers Do Not Speak To Me
All The Things I Tried To Do I’d Never Thought It Was Too Late So In This Silence I Made A Wish For The One Who Went Away
Roses, Are Covering Your face And With My Mind I’m Calling Out For You But All That’s Left Are Roses, Covering Your Face And With My Mind I’m Calling Out For You… But You Cannot Hear Me
The Rising Spirit Of The New I Can Look Through The Windows Of Their Minds Why Should We Care About The Means Our Last Goal Is To Reach The End
You Said Don’t Tell Me We Can Take Our Time So I Hope That We Meet Again Sheltered In Your Faith You Made Me Understand But Now What’s Left Is Hidden Under…
May Your Weekend Be Blessed, Rain Or Shine, And May You Be Safely Protected By The Light º¤ø¸ø¤º¤ø •CHeLsIA RoSe LaMbErT• ø¤º¤ø¸ø¤º
Each chapter that is ending Leads us to a new beginning The past that we are leaving Means a future we are winning Each change that fills the present Lets the stage for our tomorrow And how we meet each challenge Helps determine joy or sorrow
In every new beginning Spirit plays a vital part We must approach tomorrow Cheerful thoughts like sunbeams Lighten up the “darkest fears” For when the heart is happy There's just no time for tears And when the face is smiling
It's impossible to frown And when you are “high-spirited” You cannot feel “low-down” For the nature of our attitude Toward circumstantial things Determines our acceptance Of the problems that life brings And since fear and dread and worry
Cannot help in any way It's much healthier and happier To be cheerful every day And if you'll only try it You will find, without a doubt A cheerful attitude's something No one should be without For when the heart is cheerful
It cannot be filled with fear And without fear, the way ahead Seems more distinct and clear With a strong and steady heart Thoughts Of You My Dear Friend
Wishing You A Magical & Bright Week Ahead º¤ø¸ø¤º¤ø •CHeLsIA RoSe LaMbErT• ø¤º¤ø¸ø¤º

I remember a hundred lovely lakes, and recall the fragrant breath of pine and fir and cedar and poplar trees. The trail has strung upon it, as upon a thread of silk, opalescent dawns and saffron sunsets. It has given me blessed release from care and worry and the troubled thinking of our modern day. It has been a return to the primitive and the peaceful. Whenever the pressure of our complex city life thins my blood and benumbs my brain, I seek relief in the trail; and when I hear the wolf calling to the yellow dawn, my cares fall from me - I am happy.
Blessings of Love n Light Beautiful One!!! It was so funny the other day i was reading a poem you sent to me from a while back ago and Wa La! You appear!;) Love ya! -Rev. Yao
There was a time it seemed as though My life was tossing to and fro And I, left with nowhere to go Was subject to the sea
But there, ahead, a beam of light Peered through the darkness of the night And granted to me clearer sight That I might be set free
I steered a course toward the land To find a refuge on the sand And maybe touch the gentle hand That guided me along
And when I reached the coast that night Upon a hill, the shining light Was tended by a welcome sight... My friends had led me home
Air that blows idea-songs Breath of Gala’s sing-along The world exalts with voices ringing AIR! Take our spirits winging!
Fire at grow time & blazing heart Quickening every living part We who dance to fan the flame Ask, FIRE! Let partner be your name!
Water shining in rain and river Thou nourished and comfort giver We ask of you, Oh mother of flowers Gentle floods of life-stream power
Earth, Thou art both bird and nest With spring-song filled and new life blessed We who call you are living eggs EARTH! Hatch and hold us we happily beg
Wishing You An Enchanted Week Ahead Filled With Wonder And Delight! Brightest Blessings, •**•.¸(¯..•.¸*CHeLsIA RoSe LaMbErT*¸.•..¯)¸.•**•
