Best Sighs Poems

Between the whispers and the sighs

The sweet taste of champagne,
still lingers on her lips
The fragrance of jasmine oil,
slides from her fingertips

I know that I'm ready for,
whatever she has in mind
There's a warmth taking over me,
that's moving deep inside

A mystic instigation,
of skin against skin
In breathless anticipation,
for...

Visions of a way forward 
raising the curtains dream magic
stepping into the spotlight view 
captivating under a harvest moon

Rocked in the cradle of thoughts 
your the flower sweetly awakening 
deeply flames warmly embrace sunshine beams 
growing beautiful rose petals tenderly touch deeply

When I trace your...

"I want to see thirst In the syllables, touch fire In the sound; feel through the dark. For the scream." ~ Pablo Neruda

I
taste the
pulse of stars
coursing through rhymes,
stirring my moon-swept

soft blue sparks of poetry,
breathless and lost in the musky
heat of...

I’m in distress
I can’t express
How I feel deep down inside
This feeling is a terrible tide
How do I impress
Everyone here in excess?
I’m just here to simply abide
By God’s Law, I don’t subside

My tears are diamonds in the cave
You left me glistening, but I am still listening
You...

Her orchid blooms in petals across the vast expanse
bridging realms from here to there
spilling her wine and soaking the sphere of giving light
with impassioned shades of royal birth
as drowsy constellations daydream

she presents pious plumes of plum pastels
in a gesture of generous grandeur
for cosmic kings and...

Outside my window a little sparrow sings,
a composer on violin strings;
and far off a baby cries,
a loud dog replies.
The song drifts,
sighs;
oh, such gifts !
A hummingbird flies,
with wild wings going clock wise;
job done, he leaves on fluttery wings, 
outside my window a little sparrow sings.

"Don't get lost in your pain, know that one day your pain will become your cure." ~ Jalaluddin Rumi

The moon wept over withered stars  
mirroring the heartbeats of mourning blues,
oblivious to the warmth of dusky truth, 
while I bite my lips to suppress the...

Allow me to comb the anger from your hair my dear
with gentle strokes of my melodic care for you,
look at my glowing affection in the smooth mirror of love
as I move your soft mane to the side of your neck
and place my supple lips upon...

A storm blew in when I peered into those dark eyes
Fearing lightning would strike in bolts of midnight fire
Wanting his touch, though it might lead to my demise
Then full lips swept over mine, igniting desire

Thunder roared in my head with each deepening kiss
I heard it...

Sultry crowns a lunar face beam connected 
fishing in the great lakes crimson shades a shadow

Rising inside echoes see through ice crystal breaking 
the temple of an ocean lament treasure sings out sweet sorrow

Cries out seagulls within the silence peaking wave held moment 
gasping silence...

over eighty but still smiley and spry
he met each new day with joy in his eyes

he loved to golf and he loved to bowl
both were his fun and fulfilling goals

one day playing golf with his skilled swing
he scored below par - his favorite thing
he rushed...

Each season breathes a fleeting sigh,
 Spring bestows gifts of renewal
 Leaving blooms before its goodbye

 Summer sizzles with warmth and zest
 We lose ourselves in its blue skies
 Finding relaxation and rest

 Autumn then sets the trees ablaze
 And brings a chilling wind our...

Suddenly
when melancholy arrived,
she engraved the words 'sad' 
deep into my manic mind.
Then abandoned me in 
a pit of sinister silence.

Who turned out the lights
inside the moon?

Now the horizon looks like tar 
and the voices become louder.
Every morning is a miserable melody
in this malady of heavy...
