I stand in the last patch of sunlight
and I glean the last rays of the sun.
The scents of the flowers waft o'er me,
as though they and the sunrays are one.
...
You kneel before me,
Like a supplicant for my love,
But look around you!
...
Life’s winter brings its frost bite to our hair.
It cools, perhaps, the heady wine that flows
Within our veins, our life-blood’s hidden lair,
But naught but death can give it that repose
...
There exists a magical window
that I call my fantasy
and whatever I want, as I look through
is exactly what I'll see.
...
I wandered, once, through the universe
With never a thought or care,
For fortune smiled on my every turn
And I had no load to bear.
...
I walked a path that climbed
through autumn's leaf strewn bed
along a hill.
The wind moaned through the trees
...
Here sit I now, as love transcends,
and fate conspires to make amends
for those transgressions of the past,
when toil came first and love came last.
...
(Tribute to Love's Calming Influence)
Easy has found that he's
Easily lost,
...
How sharper than a serpents bite,
Five days that sneak past in one night;
Five days that passed without a trace,
And I, without one saving grace,
...
Consumed I am, and eaten by
My own voracious discontent.
My dreams have withered up to die
Where my tranquility was spent.
...
