Best Close Poems

For Jack and For Me

Close my eyes ~
	I’m on that mountain
	lush with Autumn taste.

Close my eyes ~
	We are love entwined
	in crisp fall leafed lace.

Close my eyes ~
	Lips of first perfect kiss,
	once more bliss moist my lips

Close my eyes ~
	We are young again,
	connecting eyes, souls and...

first step in my final journey 
stairway to universal consciousness 
celestial light lures
wonder captivates

life’s silent movie 
images rerun, stimulating recollections
no loved ones left behind
faint glimpses ahead
cherished souls linger in paradise 
spirits wait for my entry 

Earthly orb below grows vague 
colors begin to darken 
even...

I'd finished work at ten PM and got in my car
It was dark as I drove home and in the sky noticed a star
Could be a planet I thought, as I drove along the forest road
It seemed to get closer and I noticed my car...

Close your eyes and think of us

as we journey across the sea

take my hand and waltz with me

in the shadow of the moon


Close your eyes and think of us

listen to our hearts

take a chance and stay with me

in the comfort of my arms

  

Enter...

she half-heartedly stares
out the window, as if a mirror

the tree stands there
fragile and frail
uprooted, ready to snap
beneath the weight of winter
icicles hang like daggers to a heart

she sees no beauty in this
but she never liked her anyhow

she closes her eyes
and sees him there
as if an...

A musical throng of 400,000 strong invaded a dairy farm in New York in 1969,
 which set fire to the 70’s; but there was no chance of me being there; 
I was a good girl, 17 years young; sheltered, not knowing about the real world.
Working...

Midst the dark of night, 
neath the veil of moonlight, 
I'll wait for you,
my eyes never losing sight of your face, 
always in touch with your hand.

Somewhere in time is where we’ll begin,
consummating our moment for an eternity.
Until then make love to me with words,...

Every time I have you close my dear
This remarkable yearning of you brings me home
The sound of your voice reaches the clouds so far
Every time I have you close my dear
My lips are stilled to me you're like a star
In my heart I evoke your...

Breathe close to me, let not your head droop 
nor your face grimace in fierce grief, 
for when I must leave, all will not leave with me, 
I promise....

The memories we made together 
will sit safe inside your mind's nest.
I'll leave the photos too: I...

When I close my eyes...and I see the night 
Sometimes things...appear so bright 
Smiling cheeks...and happy faces 
Sunshine ~ Beautiful places 

Ocean waves ~ Blowing willows 
Babies snuggled in their pillows 
Old men rowing in their boats 
Youngsters passing, love you...notes 

Happy women in sweet...

My teeth have gotten crooked.
My eyes sport puffy bags.
My lashes lost their lushness
And my neck, once taut, now sags.

My wrinkles now have cousins
Come to line my washed-out skin,
But it isn’t any mirror that
Reveals the shape I’m in.

For that white-haired older lady,
Peering back across the room,
Is...

Golden enchanting warm beautiful magic
falling behind mountains spell binding
A setting sun bows down relinquishing her throne 
paints glowing amber clouds faraway in a distant horizon dreams
She smiled while whispering the few very freeing words
while she ran deeper into her bright future

Darkening skies breathing daylights lastly...

On the dance-floor they did a zigzag
But he was an ol’ scallywag:
-	“If you feel something hard
-	Pay no regard …
It’s just my colostomy-bag”...

When I close my eyes I see your face
Shining beautiful like summer's grace
I see sweetness in the curve of your smile
Which lingers in my mind for a while
Yet in your eyes I see a lonely dove
Who yearns for man's honest love
Majority of your years you've...

Night Whispers in my ear, promising sweet

Dreams from another world. My eyes lidded

With wonder of images that aren't complete.



My consciousness blurs, I scrunch up my feet.

Dream realm returns, I enter it timid.

Night whispers in my ear, promising. Sweet



Melodies drift down a rain ridden street.

Colors explode...
