I whisper this poem with sigh.
moving at dusk of clouds.
Roads take me
on pathway
where heart grows heavy
and footsteps slow.

From where he hides that someone
I’ve searched for?
Is he behind stars,
near flower not yet bloomed?
On road the self less travels?
Or perhaps he’s mythical with no form
making absent to eyes.

Whispers of prayer leave lips
to land on leaf
for gentle breeze to gift an angel.
Perhaps then
dream will touch reality,
as I do rest
below a moon bells song.
Inspired by poem by Robert frost called The Road not taken.

Emma
I know you.
Sometimes you say things, expecting that I won’t understand, and I think it’s strange because
I know you.
That’s what this is. I know you,
And I want you,
And I care about you
Anyway.
I want no one else.
You might not know me,
The stanchions you use to prop yourself up eating all that I have fed you,
In the darkness,
In the night,
But I know you.
And I want you anyway.
I stare at my reflection,
You're staring back at me.
A flaw so insignificant
And yet, it's all I see.
There's no way you define me
So why don't I agree?
Why is it that I still fear
It's you they see, not me?
As traveler
in human form...

We dance for romance
cry and sigh
eat and sleep

We fight for light
Dream and scheme
Write all night

We joke and smoke
Seek and Speak
Bow and pray

And prance to dance
moving
in path to enhance soul.
Musical melodies are in my heart
an orchestrated masterpiece.
Even stronger when two lovers meet
and sing in tune.

a river of musical notes
inside one’s pond of eyes
Even stronger when two lovers,
meet to gracefully swim.

There’s a mountain of verse
when one smiles with light.
Even stronger when two lovers
kiss with passions.

And, there is an energy of peace
inside self love never lonely.
Even stronger when two lovers
convene with ecstatic pleasures.
Inspired by Robin Lemmen -A gifted poet Thanks
You walked in,
And I could feel everything bursting through the door.
Emotions swirling around you to the point I think it spun me dizzy
But it woke me up,
And I was hoping I could just catch
A little bit of that wind
Comin' off you;
My grand tornado.
She can be crazy but it's ok.
I kissed a girl with a broken smile;
nothing could come near.
She carved it with a pocket knife;
slit from ear to ear.
And she wears it like her favourite scarf;
it keeps her from the cold.
So I told her its only woven by
her enemies of old.
