From the outside
you look perfectly apple-like
Rounded and pink
Rosy Skin
...
Two angelic figures
sit in quiet reflection
They are mesmerising,
enchanting.
...
In a sonnet you would be desire
I would lust for you: heartache.
In a limerick you would be humour
I would laugh with you: heartache.
...
An island of green
Pavement and curb
Lap at its shores
Hemmed in by roof tops.
...
Red tulips, cherry blossoms
beckon the honeybees
Softly seducing
Sweet nectar.
...
Frantic and gentle
Time wraps happy hands
Round lily white limbs
Waking embers of a dying fire
...
Your voice carries softly
In the midnight wind
Heavy lids fight approaching sleep
Hanging on your gentle words.
...
I can see behind those eyes
To all the pain locked up inside
To all the hurt that's gone before
The need the want to be loved
...
My hopeful heart swells
Rises softly
Through starry skies
...
