absentmindedly picking individual notes
plucking the ole acoustic
fingerpicking style
she moves into the room
silently
and sits alongside me
right on the dog hair coated floor
and hums along
as if it were an actual written tune
softly I feel her head light upon my shoulder
and my heart nearly skips one beat –

I will ask to fold down,
Sleep between your pleaful hands,
And rise up on the notes of psalms
To rest again on tender lands.

oh i love you
there is not any part of me
that disagrees

Talking so happily
Helping, hugging, loving
Giggle very silly
Tickle, wiggle, squeal

Blushes abound, all around
Their love is different
They help each other stand their ground
With snuggles under the blanket

One cries, the other consoles
Back rub, cheek kiss, compliment
They don't feel like two wholes
Just two parts of a family
Met a very nice friend recently who has been helping me through some rough times. She inspired this so thanks Gabrielle~!

I've been all these
faces, all their ways...
in passing, and passing
away.
Therefore, may compassion
be the wellspring granted.

If you burned me up
Threw me to the waves
And let me become part of the ocean

Would you visit me
Hear the gulls calling you
As you stared into my watery depths

I would rush to you
Ready to hug you in my currents
And wrap up your senses

Would you recognize my arms
How strong and sure they are
The longing, would you feel it?

As a lover I rush to you
As I friend I cry salty tears
As long as you visit the ocean

I will always be near
Born again into the waves
Always to love you

To remember how to dance
To rain, To eternally
be drowned in your memory

Renegade crows
swagger ashore
lifting unlucky tritons
high into the whirling
wind, dropping them
to the rocks below

shell is rendered
to fine dust
revealing the mollusk
vainly hiding
in the fissured whorl
of what was once

Home

now a splintered chamber
with no exit  
from which to squeeze
into the minute space
between falling
and breaking clean open.
You are pleasing to eyes.
Wonderful to my mind.
Just beautiful all the time.

All the qualities of what I seek?
Is within you.
This is completely true.

You're just totally beautiful to me.
I've got one thing I like from you.
And it's not very hard to do.
All you gotta do is be willing to do.

Send your love my way.
Like I be sending mine to you.

Love, this is my love request.
Yes, my love request to you.

You been selected to accept my invitation.
But realize my love isn't a consolation.
Cause still to this day love rules many nation.

This is my love request to you.

Like many fairy-tales written in books.
Our will have a happy ending too.
