Best Embraces Poems
Thy warm embraces capture the zenith of my strength
Glints in your hazel eyes connect the dots with no ends
‘Tis passionate love resonating its infinite length
Thy warm embraces capture the zenith of my strength.
You are God’s precious gift-million miles far beyond tenth
For these tender kisses, I hold my breath to extend.
Thy warm embraces capture the zenith of my strength
Sunset ensures God’s great love… through you, He always sends.

Play only love songs
For tonight’s starshine hours,
with its winking
Constellations all
Hailed
And wished upon
To make this night completely
Ours ~
and keep love’s longing
Lasting
Here within us
Near
enough to
Touch
Smiles
While our wooing words turn into
gifts of kisses
Re-living our first embraces
with hearts pulsing
Music
Now
Freely composing itself
for our time yet to come
Living in a choral harmony
with love’s true verses
Coursing rivers
Amidst the patient rythms of
Lasting
Eternity…

“Embrace and Release”
In the quiet of night, I pondered—
the art of severing ties, like pruning a tree.
The weakest links, once tightly bound,
now set free, like a maiden’s unclasped bra.
2024 dawns, a canvas for transformation.
Covid’s grip loosens, and clarity emerges.
Meltdowns yield to focus, tears to savings.
My sex life, like New York’s winter, chills.
Raw verses spill forth, unfiltered and true.
Yet my smile softens toward strangers,
and I find myself liking humanity anew.
Trust remains distant, a horizon to reach.
Biblical tales echo vulnerability—
the weaker devoured by the strong.
Have I surrendered my worth for fleeting moments?
No tears stain my words; they remain silent.
As I gaze upward, pondering thoughts,
my brain’s triad—forebrain, midbrain, hindbrain—
collaborates, yet sometimes drifts apart.
Do I know myself anymore? Today, I listen.
Goodbye, old lover; hello, new friends.
Life’s tides carry me forward,
and I embrace the journey, raw and unafraid.
May vulnerability be my strength, not my undoing.

Blank verse
When the sky above's azure blue
the grass below Irish green
My thoughts straightaway turn to you
Reflections of visions
yet to be seen
Winding lavender staircases
intimate moments shared
powdery-snowfall embraces
adventures yet to be dared
Parting kisses linger
'til dawn's warm sun intrudes
touching my lips with your finger
flames' fancy thus fanned ne'er subdued

Our life book is laden with lots of love.
Brief notes and roses and corny love songs;
Kisses, rubbing noses; cooing like doves.
Pledging our love to the one we belong,
A sentence here and a paragraph there.
Wedding bells and honeymoon embraces,
Alone times and skis; with you anywhere!
Romantic sails to exotic places.
Churning ice cream with kids the old-time way.
Grandkids rushing to hug our knees at the door.
The sadness of parents passing away
Left bittersweet memories, rich, not poor.
Beyond feeling, love is life’s best way:
The peaceful love of ordinary days.

Sweetest Love, Embraces The Moon's Light
Sweet love, grows even as we sleep
against its breast, dares to hold it close
Memories of such nights burn in deep
like the great beauty of a lover's rose
Burning kiss, a kiss so magically felt
into your arms my body quickly flows
As my heart and soul stir to melt
moonlight gifts its majestic shows
Tender hands, that touch my cheeks
creating the dream I fly deep into
Such passion, all a lover ever seeks
eternal hours holding and kissing you
Glowing smile, sends love in waves
dancing long Summer nights away
Your true love my life forever saves
passionate blessing forever and a day
Sweet love, grows even as we sleep
against its breast, dares to hold it close
Memories of such nights burn in deep
like the great beauty of a lover's rose
Sweet love, embraces the moon's light
snatches the heart, dares to hold it tight

I see the beauty of the sangria sun setting in the west,
the chartreuse leaflets upon my white rose bush flourish-
The tiny little robins have started a family in their nest,
as mother nature begins to tenderly blossom and nourish.
The chartreuse leaflets upon my white rose bush flourish,
I’m hoping my chrysanthemums will turn bright pink,
as mother nature begins to tenderly blossom and nourish,
my mossy vines intertwine and embrace with each link.
I’m hoping my chrysanthemums will turn bright pink,
I’m astounded once again by the majestic peaceful scenery,
I sit out on my cabana with admiration and start to think,
how wonderful it set sights on such hues and greenery!
I’m astounded once again by the majestic peaceful scenery,
the tiny little robins have started a family in their nest-
How wonderful it set sights on such hues and greenery!
I see the beauty of the sangria sun setting in the west.

I can remember hunting with my Dad
From the time I was a young lad
It never makes me sad
Everything about my Dad
Was very rad I'm just glad
I have the memories of Dad and me
I remember the many faces
All the many places
That helps me sort out all of the many cases
I see in those memories that were him and me
As I pick up on the many traces
Of the good old days that embraces
The wide open spaces
When I was still young in my ways
He molded the man that lives through me
Only then can we begin to see
How much good stuff he instills into me
It's easy to see why my Dad was so close to me
Dad had brought me up with social graces
Always taking me off to the races
Now I really wouldn't have been mad
If I didn't have a dad that was so rad
Then I would be lost without any bases
To make a case my dad's heart was in the right place
He taught me the workplace is important
To make good relations that leads to vacations
My memories are so real as they make me feel
Like my life is a really big deal
Of the values And morals, he instilled in me
Our family is stronger than the wheel
They would never turn their back on me
So my life has turned out to be
What every Dad should see
The harmony of memories of dad
When I was just a lad
That makes me so glad
I had such a great Dad

My plethora of emotions rustling at brim
wishing you to seize and soar
dreams full of your exquisite image
and nights desiring your embrace
riveting my tempt again and again
like rays basking right into my core
your divine beauty to struck moon in awe
I,the dazzling fiery sun
And thou my radiant moon
captivating this heart
which seeks thou and thine only love
my incessant wait of days
ends with serene silence of dawn
when you are there
waiting...for me
And i hoping, only time could stand still
capturing our moments eternally
though this love quenches my thirst for thou
but still trying to perceive
unaware of who and where you might be
i wanna shriek out at dusk
That hey I'm here
waiting for you,an illusion indeed
this soul bearing you is aching
i know...
i have fallen into limerence
entranced and intoxicated
you are my rising dawn
and that fading nightfall
this heart is under your enchant
for me,You ,my whole life engraved within deep
but for you
I,that another another passerby
you never wondered to meet
Is this gruesome wait of thou only mine
voices of gallants encore
even the world wondered
where she might be
The moon that embraces the sun

System integrity can grow more deeply resonant
only as diversity grows more widely interdependent.
Diversely rich integrity
longs to universally emerge
unitarian yin-inclusive
and not uniformly yang-dominant,
exclusive
privileged
supremely kleptocratic.
An economic and ecological reason
Win/Lose capital wealth-accumulation values
trend toward historically WesternWhite male racist privileged mono-structures
is because we do not, instead,
cooperatively co-invest time
and energy
and capital
in diversely interdependent integrity;
reconnecting universal yang wealth values
with unitarian interdependent health-norms.
So, anti-racist multicultural ecosystems
are those fully invested
in pro-active historical culture-deepening
and diversely widening
integrity
rather than defensive monocultural rabidity.
Racial justice seeks creolizing metamorphosis,
and not colonizing unilateral supremacy,
as does environmental justice.
Both are health-trending
when cooperatively restoring therapeutic EarthJustice
with pulling together Win/Win integrity,
and not Win/Lose pushed apart disintegration
of bio-
and ego-
and eco-
and geo-systemic diversity.

Sunshine Embraces My Soul
Each day the hot sunshine embraces my soul
Breaks through the darkness black as coal
As it shines mystic sounds float all about
In the background angels sing and shout
The more the merrier says the mystic host
She celebrates the Sun's light and toasts
Such beauty revealed for man to celebrate
A dawn molded to enhance mankind's fate
Each day blue-sweet sky dances to decorate
man's garden set to feed our redemption date
Woods and green pastures upon earthy ground
singing happiness and love within mystic sound
Marvel we at sky filled with clouded , dazzling gems
Hidden spirits sing praising God in harmonious hymns

This morn the sun showed,
the rooster crowed,
dog found his bone,
I paid homage I owed,
Past life lived, now gone.....

Do you remember the days when handshakes were standard?
Hugs and embraces were reserved for 'that something special'.
Although I am not aware of such, I suspect there has been some
study about 'the embrace's rise'. There has to be an explanation.
Anyway, about the embrace and my relationship and experience with it:
There is an embrace that never leaves a trace.
There is another embrace that can never be erased.
There is an embrace that greets you and says hello.
There is another that heals when you are feeling low.
I once experienced an embrace that held me tight in Toledo.
There were many more that held me ever so warmly in Sacramento.
When life beats you up and leaves you weary, lonely, and cold,
God provides hugs and embraces for the healing of our souls.

I MISS YOU SO MUCH KATELYN
Free Verse
When I first saw you
I can't explain the happiness I felt
after so many years of waiting
you're now my arms my dear
Dozens of kisses, warm hugs and embrace
so proud am I as I strolled with you in the streets
with a heart full of happiness
Two weeks you lived with me
then with a broken heart you went away
When will I see you again my beloved
to heal my heart so wounded
I MISS YOU SO MUCH
My Granddaughter, Katelyn

Gaia embraces the root network of the world’s fleshiest trees
sand, stone, clay and black dirt swirl around her ancient core
gemstones of emerald, opal and topaz lie dormant
oceans figure out a place to sit on her lap
volcanoes and wind tunnels announce
fire and ice make room for themselves
Gaia reorganizes the elements and elementals
her feminine power welcomes them with open psyche
watching oaks, willows, elms, hickories and maples are validated
as are radishes, carrots, corn, beets, apples, pears and peaches
she selects none over another
robins, cardinals, butterflies, and dragonflies appear
the goddesses of the overworld cheer

in slumber I sleep
a stirring awakens me
dawns light embraces
my love, so playfull
she sighs in writhing motion
underwear gripped
her arched torso
in sync with joyous caress
groans of delight soar
voicing emanates
breathing enhances heaving
excited to pert
loving shadows dance
captured by the morning sun
she is imminent
release impending
rejoice is met with sighing
gratification
