~My  Dearest   Love ~
( Cinquain  Suite )



For you 
My  love  grows more
With  heart  so full  of  love
While dreaming  of you always 'neath
Moon  stars

So  soft
Your  love just  comes
Like  a  breath  of   fresh  air
I  feel  your presence inside  me
Day  night

You  are
My  shining  star
My  only one true  love
My love  for you will  always shine
So  true

My  sweet
Love  I   love you
So  and  very much  more 
For you my loves  forever and
Ever.

Lost In Autumn's Goodbye

The stunning scarlet leaf flows with gentle fervor.
Freedom requires a depth of beauty for nature's relinquished desires.
There seems to be a dynamic image brought forth from the soft 
breeze that whispers dainty goodbyes. For our love is gone and so 
is the memory of the barren branches from our favorite sapling. 
I knew not of love before you, only of the heartache that Autumn 
bestows.

                     I needed you like a breath of fresh air;
                     you lost me in the wind.

                                               -delicate crimson…

True Friendship Is a Gift From God

True Friendship is a gift from God

Among the many gifts I have received
Friendship is the best one I perceive
True friends don’t just come in passing
You've got to be one too, to make that happen.

In the world, treasures abound in plenty
What good are they, for in love and care, they seem empty?
When you are down and need an uplifting word
Not to treasures but to friends you look toward.

Sharing deep secrets and feelings which hurt
The merging of the two brings relief and comfort 
In their presence you find cosiness and joy
‘Cause that is a communion true friends enjoy!

In life’s busy paths many folk come your way
Though finding new friends seems like a breath of fresh air
Do not forget the old faithful for the new
God sent them to lend you their ear and shoulder too.

The End

I wish I could see your coffin,
classy it probably was.
The man with many nicknames people say. 
You told me stories of how you lived your way.
Your carefree attitude rubbed off
on me like a breath of fresh air.
We called you the creeper as 
you walked around the house without a peep.
I loved the days where you could walk.
I would come home to 
hear your stories and just to talk.
It was sad to see you smoke your life away.
The most generous man I knew 
was on his way home.
A biblical home where you are at peace.
The man that taught me how to play tunk and rummi.
I’d go back and play with you one
last time before you exit.
If only I would have accepted your offer, 
rather than drowning in my own lies.
The days you were able to
breath was the best days of my life.
My late great uncle Timothy Setzer lived with me for three years.
I’d go back to day one as
you first moved in, 
with the memory of your smile of new beginnings on your face.
These beginnings would be
your last memories you had to cherish.
Never complained about a damn 
thing, was always positive.
I miss those sweet summer days where we would sit out back.
A master at cooking back in his day.
The last memory I have 
was seeing your lifeless body just
lay with a look of despair.
I will never forget the man of many nicknames.

My Fair Lady

You came into my life
Like a breath of fresh air
Like a gust of fragrance
Like a passing cool breeze
Like a meandering stream
Like a cascading waterfall
Like the robust rising sun
Like the gleaming full moon
Like the dancing flame of a candle
Like a sparkling gem
Like the smile of a child
Like a coy bride
Like the blazing colors of fall
Like the rebirth of Nature in spring
Like the thrill of a roller coaster ride
Like the wanderer finding a home.

You permeate my soul, my being
I see you in the grace of Nature
I see you in the potency of the prayer
I see you in my dreams
I think of you and
feel you by my side -
Every moment, every breath.

For once I am at peace,
I have no complaints with the world,
Everything seems to 
appear as it should be,
I find ways to be grateful.

You are most beautiful,
Most enduring,
Most heartening;
Life is a journey
You, its destination.

Like a flickering light
at the end of the tunnel, 
Like a shimmering mirage
to a weary wayfarer,
Like the glimmering North Star
to a lost seafarer,
Oh, stay forever
within my sight, my love,
Lest I wander off
Alone and lost!

I dream
You're beside me
Always holding me close
Inside your heart in your strong arms
My  Love

So soft
Your love just comes
Like a breath of fresh air
I feel your presence inside me
Each day

For you
My love  grows more
With heart so full of love
While  dreaming of you neath moon stars
My love.

You are
So beautiful
In your heart,  soul  see  love
And always,  forever  I  do
Love  you.

The Princess of My Dreams

Like a breath of fresh air
My cheek brushed by the aroma of her hair
Her shining eyes melted my soul
Listen to my heart beat!
It dances to  a new beat

She breezed past like a heaveny fairy
I walked behind like a transfixed devotee
She walked,  I walked
She stopped, I stopped
She turned around

To look at me
How can I
look deep in her eyes
I stumbled and fell
She flashed a priceless smile

Enough to set alight my life
Is she the princess of my dreams!
The angel may be out of sight
Her charm will never cease
To be out of my mind
