Kev EmPea Poems

When I hold you in my arms
Everything falls away from our feet
And we stand in space
The starshine dancing in your eyes.
...

Now I hang my head all forlorn
Cos you think my limericks corn
But when I think of the bliss
Of your touch and your kiss
...

When I took the gift of your love
In great big bites
I did not know that I was getting a slice
Of vice and forbidden fruit
...

Our love takes us to an island
on some far untrodden shore
We are the first to re-enter paradise
Free from the suffering which we felt before
...

In case i go where you cannot follow
and life becomes unfair.
Go to the foot of the fell
and remember me there.
...

Sometimes, when I look back I do not dwell at where I fell
But stand and treasure the memory of a sweet gift.
One of silk within silk wrapped up in an old fur coat
And the free & generous spirit which adventured it there.
...

My deep sub-concious is rather capricious
with cruel tempting tortures awaiting the unwary.
It strains the leash to avoid the drip of poison
but the issues that bind defy corrosion.
...

We are all alone, in bed, apart
feeling the heat from a body
Or stuck together with passions honey
Or murmering the words to say we’ll never part
...

I woke to the Blackbirds call and the feel of you lying in my arms
I walked in the woods and the wind in the leaves sighed your love in my ear.
I sat by the brook and listened to your laughter as we played.
The light is brighter, the smells sweeter and the taste of you will linger on my lips.
...

There is fell and dale between you and I tonight
But my body remembers our last touch like a prayer
Murmering in faith i close my eyes to re-taste your kiss
And re-trace on your back that lovely path down
...
