Rick Berry Poems

When I sleep
I dream of your kiss

I imagine your body against mine
...

The most beautiful scent I can imagine is you
L'odeur la plus belle que je peux imaginer vous est.

I breathe the scent of your body
...

When I see you
I’m calm
I’m breathless
I’m tranquil
...

Looking into your eyes
I blushed, I turned away
I thought I had invaded your privacy
As though I was inside your body
...

Here at the ocean, safely inside, views that conspire
Salt in the air, shadows that lie, in the dark of the night
She was love, without kindness, trying to escape sunset
Sands moving time, the tide retreats, platinum foam
...

Innocent innuendo
Illusion turns to reality
Clay oven, fire, heat
The kiss, passion erupts
...

Sometimes I close my eyes and smile
I try to imagine what you will look like
I try to imagine how it will feel to hold you
With my eyes closed, I see your smile
...

The fragrance of a flower
Like the fragrance of a woman
Is a declaration of fertility
The poetry of seduction
...

Imagine if you can
The fruits of time
Unconditional trust
...

I wait
Patiently
Faith is my ally
Hope is my friend
...
