The rains beat wildly
against the hard earth;
seeking entrance to the womb
that gave them birth.

Causing flash flooding,
in gullies all around;
minor flooding in
several parts of town

The gusty winds blow
havoc,  with all things light;
enabling some of them,
to rise in unexpected flight.

Tumbling in the rain swept street,
they spin and race in fury;
like startled things they fly,
in one big, storm-filled hurry.

Monsoons hit the Arizona plains,
dust storms, hail and lightning,
thunder booms her mighty voice,
when close, it's rather frightening.

something was missing.
a vacancy of purpose
lay within my soul.
until I caught your glance
and for a brief moment,
I suddenly felt whole.

I didn't believe it, at first.
my jaded mind fought the idea.
but the emptiness began to fill.
this wasn't a lustful impulse
something had begun,
and it was real.

the proof was in
your words,
your smile,
your loving touch.
your humor,
your laugh,
I could not get enough.

our lives began that august night
under a star filled sky and pale moon.
I am a 'man' today made better, forever
and it's all my darling,
my Love,
because of you.

as the wind currents
are changing they indicate
a seasonal shift
evening draws down
the last vestiges of light
sunken to the west
mist of time
oh love of mine

on that night
neath the moon
you promised me
a love boon

by the fading days
of May
our love
had frayed

mist of time
oh love of mine

the vine of our love
untied
its affection
died

mist of time
oh love of mine
the precious moments
they share online
are so exquisitely divine
tethering together
in cyber space
making a connection
like the linking loops
in a piece of lace
a romantic fusion
of love birds
logging in
to dispense
their devotional words

Leaving

You won't see the tears
crawling out of my eyes
You won't see me drown
on the sea of sadness
Because when I look
In your eyes,
not even a spark
or explosion ignites
No galaxies to explore
in the depths inside
No, you won't even stop me
And if you tell me
you'll miss me,
you don't need to lie
because I'm leaving and
you won't even say goodbye.*

Leaving in a few weeks! You won't even care so whatever :(
soon the buds of spring
shall unfold to reveal their
multitude of hues
