My Beloved,
      
If the Mediterranean waves, could carry me to your arms,
I'd wake up, to your whispers,enchanted by your charms.
If the Wafting Wind could breeze me to the your bed, 
Our longing lips would kiss and hiss,In hungry emotions wed.

To love you in every fairest moment
and kiss you tenderly in pure delight
to yearn for you when you are absent
and hold you closer in shadowed light
love keeps us fondly in a warm embrace
as dreams within the heart become unsealed
passion will become a familiar face
beneath the...

In the hall of clocks and mirrors,
Winds of time bring fragrant whispers,
Of midnights of magic moonlight,
And reflections of past delights!

Of golden days when lost in blooms,
And dancing joy in summer rooms!
A blur of green in woodland scene,
And the purple twilights velveteen.

Time's reversed to infinity,
As ensues...

Fragrant the petals

Time moves so quickly
the sun comes to play
Caressing my thoughts
on this cold winter day

Soon it will follow
the path of my dreams
While looking for flowers
along gentle streams

A dozen or more
by the waters a’ flow
Fragrant the petals
this morning to show

That this day is special
as one...

Tree caterpillar crawling
Strong windy debris;
Blown over the bough

~~~~~~~~~


Violet blossoms
Vine decorations dancing;
Sun and breeze move

~~~~~~~~~


Joy wears a face:
Your smiles highlight;
Dazzle of morning

~~~~~~~~~


Hasty scribblings
Poetry in motion;
Grassy blooms unnoticed

~~~~~~~~~


Rose garden memories
Touch of rapture;
Thorny issues exfoliate

~~~~~~~~~


Sweet yellow guava
Pleasant tasty treat;
Oxford Road townhouse

This old Jasmine tree
Fondly remembers;
Our...

Spring adds a fragrant freshness to the air
as earthy aromas waft 'neath the snow;
and sunlight melts away Winter's despair.

Daffodils contribute color and flare;
and as balmy breezes bashfully blow,
Spring adds a fragrant freshness to the air.

Snowdrifts dwindle to patches barely there;
and frozen rivers once more start...

Nascent pristine hopes sprout stealthily
  from the submerged swamps of anxieties,
     parched earth frets over consequences
       to fuel naive hopes into realities of void
         burdened with...

Dive inside the rainbow
fill your hair up with
sorrow.
Let go of the wind and
follow the sound of
haunting wolves.
Let your demons collapse
you, and your bitter angels
astounded words from
your holly lips.

Green leaves sailing across
the heaven sky.
I sometimes wish I was free
falling never looking down
just spreading my wings making
lonely...

A smell like lunches cooked by Gran -
oh, boy, my mouth will water still -
the veggies boiling in the pan
and roasted beef - I'd eat my fill,
and marvel at her skill.

Dessert was always clotted cream
on heaps of fruit she'd stewed;
It's wafting now...alas, but only in...

When in pain,
It seems our life is only pain
And it is hard to see a place
With no pain.
Don't feed a pain
By looking at all the other pains
That in your life you can locate
Find the sane.
Find the cane to stand up again
Let your eyes rest upon...

I was a skillful, amiable nursery worker, cultivating blooms in a greenhouse,
Like feverish and fragrant blooms, often grown in redbird's green treehouse.

Hours were spent sowing seeds, adjusting conditions, and also and pruning,
As June full moon nights await dawn, in utter hush as blooms are swooning.
