love began under stars and brightest of moonlights.
Hold onto that image, its joyous dreaming dreams;
fiery echoes, night trysts and pleasurable screams!
Love's greatest truth rests in thy bosom and kind heart,
destined to meet that night and our souls never...

*I wrote this sonnet some years ago for my wife, who suffers from fibromyalgia since an auto accident in 1995. An anniversary poem

not Aphrodite's vernal ivory skin
nor Cleopatra's jasmine scented hair
could tempt this man to stray in lustful sin
for next to you no beauty can...

    "Cherished Blessings"



Life has not ended, only changed
and so our lives are rearranged
for one so special now has gone
their spirit, to the Lord, was drawn.

And we are lost and so afraid
their memories will never fade
these cherished blessings paid the cost
and we are...

Premium Member Cherished
Perhaps when the last bough has sailed away
And I stand here alone on twilight's plea,
I will remember each and every day
When gentle eyes kissed fears so tenderly.

I cherished our seasons through pain or shine
You opened love’s vessel to catch dawn’s tide ,
More than a father,...

Premium Member Daniel Turner - Cherished Friend
Of famous sonnets I’ve unwrapped so far,
Including Shakespeare’s brilliance, I’ll contend,
None close compare as near one superstar,
Entitled “Daniel Turner - Cherished Friend”;
Aligned in gentle reassuring tone,
That shares with passion wisdom learned in time;
A wellness check on friends who feel alone,
Reminding patience renders life sublime;
When needed...

For Maya Angelou: Like a Cherished Effigy
I hold it up again today; the world,
Pregnant with magical dimples
Of a child's reckless abandon,
And look at the face,
Then I look at the deep cut
And the pain it inflicted
I look back at the unpaid ransom,
The whips, hands chained to the back
Faces buried deep into the...

Premium Member My Cherished Bloom
Intravenous tubes disconnect her thoughts
             As the machine beeps without relent

                I stare blankly at the monitor's screen

Cherished Memories
I cherish every moment
I spend with you today.

I cherish every memory
You have given along the way.

I cherish every story
Even the ones you shouldn’t say.

I cherish every tear you cry
As you remember the good ole days.

I cherish every step you take
As you stumble and make your...

Destiny brought them extremely close,
Emotional flame highest arose,
Big tummies failed to kiss,
Cherished moments piped hiss,
Better obese as appetite froze !

Premium Member When Every Star Is a Cherished Wish
When all our days are counted,
and all our night dreams lived,
could we have wanted for anything else,
than to be loved?
If every star was a cherished wish,
would we gather them up,
or let them stay, for all to see?
If along the way we dance,
in the moon's shadowed...

An Ode To My Cherished Friend
Every word uttered in the mad rush of a day,
Journeys back to haunt me in the dark’s calm.
Those that /occurred with him bears no exception.
Stuck with regret over petty fights that doth not warrant a cut
Yet, so happened.
The resplendent ray of sunshine,
That illuminates a particularly...
