rain
Snare me like a midsummer night dream
In the vaults of your soul

Tempt me with the sweetest of your care

Pour me your love like  the oldest red wine
While we lay thoughtless amid the
Shrubs of scarlet roses and white lillies
Spotless and eternal

High on our own secret love
Roaming with a destiny unknown
Coiled in the mysteries unplumbed

Sniffing every thought
Hearing every beat
Careless whispers brushing our hearts
While we shudder at the impermanence
Still holding on to every desire bare ahead of us

Counting fireflies and sleeping daffodils
Searching for scars in the silver moon
Staring at the unchained clouds
Lusting aisles of each other's hidden dreams
Drinking every wordless feeling

Like rains and like hurricanes
ceaseless
Farther than the sky
Deeper than the ocean

Into nothing and everything
We dissolve
Entwined like the vine
Forgetting Sanity
Unremembering world
undoing selves
Becoming imperfect and whole.

A bashful sunrise
peeks through the curtains
as we greet the dawn
beneath satin sheets
creating our own
glistening dewdrops
before a wide eyed
*blushing horizon
Good morning beautiful  :)

They tried to tear you from my brain,
But my heart wouldn't let you go,
Although I may have forgotten your name,
Butterflies in me remember you so.
My grandfather was recently diagnosed with Alzheimer's, this is for him.

Your eyes shinning so bright.
Full of love and power.
The most beautiful color I have ever seen.
They make everything else seem insignificant.
All I want to do is get lost in them once more.

I think I like the way
Your hands engulf and warm mine
I think I like the way
Your eyes seem to sparkle and shine
I think I like the way
Your smile can light up a room
I think I like the way
For me you'd go to the moon

The cold seeps through the night
Hug me close, hold me tight
As droplets of rain slide down the window
Whisper in my ears, words only I know

The darkness wraps us in its cool cocoon
Don't leave me yet, don't go too soon
Wipe away my tears, give me relief
Fulfill my fantasies, suspend belief

The love we have holds us spellbound
It is amazing the joy that we've found
For me, this is more than a happily ever after
To remain in your arms and love you forever.

Watercolor kisses
paint an azure canvas
atop a yawning horizon
in honeysuckle brushstrokes
and soft daffodil tints
as your lips touch mine
this wonderful morning
creating yet another
masterpiece on
*my heart
Good morning beautiful

The sun sat low on a lavender sky
Gentle its light traced your skin
Falling in love and I don’t wonder why
Lost in your beauty again

Pine needle sonnets now gracefully flow
Symphonies waft through the air
Taking your hand in the essence aglow
Soothing these moments we share

Hear now my song sung of only your praises
Melodically sweet it does play
Concertos whispered in poetic phrases
Softly I send you this day

Harmonic echoes in voices so tender
Now as this day does depart
Waltzing a path tuned of angelic splendor
*Lyrics a’ flow from my heart
Good night beautiful

I am the Poet, hear my siren’s song
My woven whispers ****** ways and words
Mesmerizing, you will feel you belong
Be part of an inner circle and be heard

Write with me, no lines will be false or blurred
Together we will create and be strong
There’s no need for pleasure to be deferred
I am the Poet, hear my siren’s song

I have been sad and alone way too long
Belonging together is most preferred
Creating brings joy, won’t you come along?
My woven whispers ****** ways and words

Take a chance and your senses will be stirred
Part of our circle, not lost in the throng
We are more together, grace is conferred
Mesmerizing, you will feel you belong

All ideas are welcomed, no thought is wrong
Just know this; your spirit won’t be interred
May our venture be successful and long
Be part of an inner circle and be heard
I am the Poet

something new and different

I'd love to live down by the ocean
My bed, the grains of sand
The stars at night, my candle light
As I lay down my weary head

The open sky would be my blanket
The cool sea breeze my ceiling fan
As swaying palm trees lull me off to sleep
With no dead lines and no demands

The call of morning gulls my alarm clock
Who's company makes sure I'm not alone
As I spend my days with the calming waves
Relaxing in my ocean home
I actually live only a few minutes away from the ocean but think often how it would be nice to leave it all behind and live the simple life...This would do it!

Caught in a web that a spider is spinning
Counting his legs as I notice him grinning
Perhaps a dream that is just now beginning
I must be falling in love

Singing a song while the music is playing
Don’t know the words, I make up what I’m saying
Not really dancing but just sort of swaying
I must be falling in love

Running a race down a path that is bending
Seeking to finish, I know it is pending
Sweating so much it could be never ending
I must be falling in love

Chasing mosquitoes now constantly biting
Waving my arms like a windmill that’s fighting
Or like a group at a UFO sighting
I must be falling in love

Filling my cart with bananas while shopping
Cleaning the peels off the floor as I’m mopping
Sliding through red lights there’s no sense in stopping
I must be falling in love

Hitting a drum in a cadence that’s pounding
Played in a very nice rhythm, astounding
Just like a heartbeat in spring it is sounding
I must be falling in love

Writing a poem with words that I’m feeling
Every desire your beauty revealing
Asking your hand as I’m carefully kneeling
I must be falling in love

Now as I stare in your perfect eyes glowing
Feeling affection they’re constantly showing
Finding each day of my life I am knowing
With you I've fallen in love
