we fall in and out of shape like
raindrops beating on
your windows,
and
I wonder
if you like to jump
in puddles like I do, or if
you hide under
umbrellas
with
the rest,
afraid of storms?
Cloaked in the world of poetry
You get to feel every emotion closely
Smallest details become extravagant
Expansive and glorious is the world
Praying at the altar of your muse
The warmth seeps through every pore
Wakening the frozen emotions
Grab the cloak closer to your being
That’s poetry and the world you realize
You exist, as poetic world becomes reality
I once lived by a river
That flowed with a seducing call
Drawing me daily to it's bed
And Liberating me in it's waves.

I miss my raging river
That use to splash all over me
Bringing joy and excitement
To my otherwise lonely days.**

My first 10 word poem
Fingertips descending spines
Causing Bodyquakes

Delicate mist of kisses
Covering peaks and valleys

Mahogany stretched towards the heavens

          Oceans of eagerness
                    
                    An arch of bliss

Fainting breaths

          Dying with Desire
To be Born in your Love


These thoughts are looping through my mind

                    I must have you

                                   Once More

               Just

                               Once More

Until...


                                 The next time

In the warmth of my emotions
written words are weighed
for someone new.  
They listen for something more
than this poet ever found
in that intricate box of you.

Nothing keeps me from smiling
at a single breath
of that which I love more.
When I feel those morning winds
brush across my words
of unknown shores.

I’m a moment
carrying a brilliant idea
with a voice soft as petals falling.
Listen to my poetry come alive inside
the empty space
of your heart’s calling.

Your eyes sing the words
I wrote for you
each time a tear rolls down your face.  
Your poet sifted the sands of time,
written words
have been erased.
