Some Poems For Mandy
at last my face begins to rest
at last my feet are curled
warming on the soft plush carpet
fire for heat
and light giving character
in shadows and
light darknesses
thoughts of the days happenings
fly like sparks
memories of a day adrift
lazily stream into darkness
night’s relaxing sooths
full with sunset’s ease
the books I’ve never written
fall from the stars to me
talked to Mandy on the phone
she asked me if I would kiss her
Has she not heard it in my voice
when I say that I love her?
Has she not seen my love sick dreaming?
Has she not talked deep into
the night with me?
Has she not sensed the longing
the desire in my poetry?
Does she not know that I have
dreamed of kissing her for
what seems like an eternity and
if I could kiss her for one half
that amount of time I would still
long to kiss her again?
Mandy I love you and will kiss you whenever,
wherever I can even before you brush your
Teeth in the morning
Rain has stopped
The occurrence of
Sporadic heat
Yet in the basement,
Cool and dark,
I lay not wanting to
Move not wanting
To do anything
But to dream of the
Woman I love
How can I explain the way
I love you
It is like my love of God
My love for nature
My love poetry
My love for beauty
And indefinable happiness
My endless search for perfection
Instead of ending up in verse
Has been pettily packaged in a woman
Who gave her love to me
