darling iridescence
i.
let me entice you to darker pleasures,
let me ****** you with sashaying hips.
and well placed caress.
ii.
flirtation is an awful habit of mine,
but I don't think you mind.
iii.
darling, you're a goner and I've barely begun.

We always talked about watching the sunset,
Laying on the roof
Watching the lights of the city below us
As if they were stars forming constellations,
Pointing out people walking by
As if they were ants below our feet on the sidewalks,
Tracing each other scars
With the tips of my fingers
And your smooth, perfect lips.
But we never talked about the sunrise.
The moon doesn't stick around for the morning,
But neither did you.
and to think for a second I thought I loved you more than the moon

A quick downward eagle's swoop
The dance of nature

If I should go
Before I've lived
For what reason
Have I been
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If I should go
Before I see
All I should have seen
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If love was never given
To all of those I met
What was the point
Of being here
~~~~~~~~~~~
To look back
With much regret .......
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Many wasted opportunities
To share and spend my time
With those who should have mattered
Who I now must leave behind
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If I should go tomorrow
This night
Or today
Have I told you each and every one
The words I'd like to say
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~.
Like the flash of a captured photograph
Instantly
Makes us blind
Reflecting
Our fleeting existence
We have
Nothing....

Only


TIME .................

Something I always do in Summer
Is just sit beneath my tree
Yes, my tree
Why?
Because it's about a 3 kilometer walk along a deer path
Anyway sit under that spruce with its shade giving branches
And you enter another world
The heady aroma of pine resin fills the air
Squirrels chatter in contentment over my head
I watch insects unknown to me
Walk the aerial ways
Ants in synchronized dance
The bark cracks do invade
Even in a gentle rain Mollie and I can share this space
Just sit and crack open another beer
And live for another day
No noise but natures noise
No rancid petrol or diesel fumes
Just the smell of mole turned soil
The sound of natures tunes
You know I love to sit in these lonely places
Mollie at my feet
Sit here with a pen and pad
In this special place where I and nature meet
I come here to sit and write sometimes just to think
But all to often when I leave
The pad is shy of ink
You see most of the time I'm quite content
To sit in filtered sun
Most of all I'm so elated
When I join with nature
When nature and I merge as one
