We make plans
setting them in motion
picking them
as if apples from a tree
...
We are uniquely special
you and I,
which brought me to thinking
of how our separate
...
Beautiful, soft lips
I'm eager to kiss
Gracing them right on time
...
Winter comes calling
in seasonal garb
displaying her frost
o'er yesterdays
...
Her branches reach across the yard
tall and proud from season's gone by
dangling the jewels of summer
bringing forth ripe, tart
...
I relish the camera's eye,
through the lens so much exists
people, places & things I may not have encountered,
otherwise; with the naked eye...
...
It is the gracefulness in his hands
the sing song way he torches each verse
his smooth, velvety, baritone voice
vibrating, skipping across the oasis of my soul.
...
Breezes sweep
through a dreary afternoon
grey on grey
forecast threatens rain
...
Oh tender, fare youth
lavish me you must
lavish me in your sweetest perfume
...
Thrashing rain, parting skies
Halting phantoms, shadows roam
Etching motion, scattering sound
...
From the corner of my eye
on coming, perilous
with a split second to spare
foot reaches for accelerator
...
Though I've been writing for many years it is only of late I've begun the journey to publish my private thoughts, on a venue such as this. I find it riveting discovering my soul speak...drawing me out of my comfort zone sailing to distant shores. I relish adventure and as a writer I design the layout of my travels knowing the Universe is my compass as well as my guide. Tally ho! to all the friends I meet along the way, for knowing the truth about possibilities, and painting the landscape of life in hues of hope and passion. PEACE OUT)
Paris In Springtime
We make plans
setting them in motion
picking them
as if apples from a tree
ripe, sweet apples...
Paris in Springtime
yes, that is what we talked about
unfolding our dreams
in places and time
under a foreign sky
getting lost
in the soul of her city streets
stringing together hands
unwrapping our moments
in gloamings gaze
lounging at a local cafe
nibbling on edibles
laughing, talking
blanketing each other
in thought
garnishing our love
in contentment
filling up
once empty spaces
lying together between silky sheets...
It is you
I know it now
a resounding yes,
you were right all along
I have found you in the rhythms of my heart.
