Burning Embers
The dawn of love, so magical and new,
Two bodies set aflame with burning kiss.
Enchanted world and only for the two.
No other pair has ever loved like this.
Young love, a wonder while its passions last
Must change its form if it’s to long endure.
Too soon the...

Embers Glow In Sunset's SnowIn snowflakes’ sunlit souls - an amber chest,
orange, yellow, blushing red impassion
resplendent ember hues of stained-glass zest,
vivid vibes enliven snow from ashen.
Inspired bliss of shining kiss on pale snow,
with delicate caresses Sol imbued
highlights to saturate the talc aglow
romancing frosted facets’ fiery mood.
Warm spectrum seeps across...

Embers of LoveMy golden eve gleams ebullient sun beams
When flares of fantasies in your eyes blaze
As echoes of fervor whisper your dreams
Where sensual concert in your heart plays
Hold me my dear in passions of your heart
And hear voice of desires crooning your name
As message of warmth blazing...

Seraphic Embers
I've always
wandered in
venus' orbs,
searching for
the star-seed
of my spirit that
has forsaken
it spiritual
sanguinary and
caged every
fluorescent flicker
in a sculptured
sanctuary of
materialistic
metamorphosis.
Wondering -
what am I,
in the camouflaging
shades of conscience
which streak
abstract hues
of ambiguity.
Are we mere
seraphims...

Expired EmbersWritten: September 12, 2023

Sunsets Paint the Sky
Embracing flames of loved ones~
Memories aglow.
Shared dawning vibrant
Now distant, yet remembered~
Love never fades out
Sultry afternoons,
zest height turns to modest warmth~
Winter's smooth embrace
Awaiting midnight
Living among sunsets' glow~
Embrace memories...

Embers of a Memory--Dad's SongOur hands and our feet were warmed from the cold,
while the campfire burned into embers and coal
The song that he whispered combined with the sparks,
and drifted away, to be lost in the dark
Splinters of light outlined his shape,
and hollowed the lines in his face.
With...

Where Frozen Embers Still BurnFrozen embers still are burning;
Deep inside, my heart is yearning
For revival, the returning
Of man's heart before the fall:
Man and woman, disobeying
Lost the heart for which I'm praying,
Pure and holy, never straying-
Take my heart, Lord, take it all.
Frozen embers now are burning,
Fanned to flames by heaven's...

Embers of TimeTwists and big turns in the name of real love
Either it will mend or break a heart
If this feeling of love, its author is God
Involved persons then must render their part
He logs more on oceans and she on land
Friendship to sweet soulful romance, began
No phone-lines...

Where Frozen Embers Still Burn
Inside my deepest thoughts
There are visions of what was once
The moments of my life come to naught
Dreamy days spent in brilliance
Inside the depths of my heart
There are ideas inspired from long ago
Moments when there is a part
Of me that wishes I had no foe
Inside my...

Where Frozen Embers Still BurnWHERE FROZEN EMBERS STILL BURN
When will periwinkle dreams entwine with my lifesong?
deadly winter has blanket me? [Long, ah! so long...]
Has bloody ferns swirl then froze me as falling snow
for acrid critiques cold cloud? [T'was wrong, Oh so wrong...]
Doubts and worries weaken...

Burning EmbersAlways we’d break up. We’d get back together,
passion-thirsting in hot summer’s weather.
We’d quench our desires from love’s brimming cup.
We’d get back together; always we’d break up.
Not long would it last, and around the fall,
you would disappear. Then would come the pall
smothering my joy, summer...

EmbersEmbers
I watch the dull fire glowing red and hot,
my face feels sunburned and my eyes are tight.
I look into the shadows, at the others in this spot,
all my people together, in the dull steady light.
They are a joyful people, they laugh a lot.
I...

Embers Gone ColdI seek for warmth by embers getting cold
and though I coax, they will not burst to flame
I sit and mourn the heart of love you sold
that bode in tigress broken now and tame
my body shivers by the dying fire
I wrap around me words of long...
