Pen to card choosing words slow
Sentiments of love, ease and flow
Driving outside, cloudy, light showers
Pull into the store, ordering flowers

All dressed up, looking spiffy
Hold on tight, be there in a jiffy
Roses on the left, a gift on the right
Knock on the door, breathless with excite

As the door opened, time stopped
Moment like this can't be topped
Ravishing, classy, extremely beautiful
A hug, a kiss, a smile, good feelings plentiful

You deserve it all, from here to the moon
Romance you read about, make you swoon
Clink our glasses, savor the wine
Hold on to this memory, sweet valentine

In the heart of the night
I wonder if you’re looking
Up at the same stars as I am.

I picture a cool breeze
Blowing through your hair,
The tall grass swaying to and fro.

The lights of your eyes
Twinkling in brilliance
As the stars shimmer bright

I imagine you gazing
Up at the moon
Wondering if I’m doing the same

Another night apart
Staring up at the same sky

Birds of a feather, together they flock
Whether they skip, run, jump or walk
Laughter, fun, smiles ear to ear
Experiences shared without any fear.
Frolicking through the meadow
Peaceful day, happy and mellow
Hands holding as they stroll
Attraction inevitable, resembling soul

Silence softly speaks
To those that listen
Stillness in the air
Whispers in the wind

Silence speaks loudly
Deafening sound
Can’t make out the words
Only screaming within

Silence speaks pain
Hurt and emptiness
Unspoken sorrow
Quietly, weeping loss

Silence speaks love
Taken in one’s arms
Calm embrace, wordless
Together in blissful peace

Longing to abscond with time
Run away to breathe and live
Looking for truth beyond the horizon
Restless soul breaking free

This heart wants to settle
For it’s run an emotional gamut
Tattered, worn out like old shoes
Quietly ticking, limping along

Then, like electrical therapy
You ignited a spark deep inside
Blood flows with purpose
Deliberate beating with resilience

It keeps on running
For you

For one more moment,
I would give up forever.
Tight embrace, a wool blanket
to conceal us in affection.
Nearby fire mirroring our desire,
hot, some like it, but tonight
warmth and ease
blissful peace of togetherness.
A still night, but save for
the faint sounds of raindrops.
Opened wine, scented candles
eyes closed, a slow passionate
kiss to destroy all before it...

Eyes open, unhurried,
blurry scene come to focus.
Sounds like a dream
Or a forgotten memory?
Perhaps a glimpse,
a mere twinkle,
of what's to come

Lounging upon the grassy knoll
Mindful, restful, enlightened soul
Clouds dividing, break apart
Sky’s a canvas, alluring art

Sun’s shining, departing gloom
Rising warmth, flowers in bloom
Lustrous light, glistening dew
Silky grass, sky steel blue

Lush fields of tranquility
Subject to vulnerability
Pad and pencil writing prose
Lying comfortably in beloved repose
