Timid eyes
From the forest
Beckon; yet hold back,
Wanting to love;
Afraid to trust. 

Lithe body
Like a deer
Ready to spring
At the first sign
Of danger. 

Delicate features
Worthy of infinite contemplation,
Question,
Ready to colour
At the slightest provocation. 

I want to coax her
From the forest,
Show her
There is nothing to fear,
Yet; I know...

She spoke them gently
words of her remorse came quick
Unspoken now said...

Timid Timmy dormouse had a lovely home
But he was so sad and lonely; he didn’t want to be alone
He did some spring-cleaning so the house was really neat
He went and brought some nuts and some tasty things to eat
Put up a lovely poster inviting people...

I want to stop these fingers
As I want to stop this brain
To be dominated by mind's splinters
Those words which unuttered to be complained

I want to close my ears
As they whisper from my heart to my mind's gears
No gate can stop them, wandering like a keen...

Filter through   the fortitude 
mix together   the mundane 
cut up, squeezed, then discarded
but not a bit of flavor remains

tepid to the tongue 
the words still taste all wrong
rinsing down the memories
they've been sitting out too long 

the kettle starts to whistle
timid...

Fire and ice
Paradoxes combine.
A battle. Fought tooth for tooth.
A truce held. 
But still holds no truth.

A prisoner. Of pain and gore.
Of royal birth. But imprisoned by woe.
Satisfaction.a dire necessity,
Of the cruel and crude 
Mundane mockery.

The jury. She decides.
Her majesty .So sedately revived.
Beauty. So invigorating.
Ravaged. And...

From the way she walks, her heart is clearly on the high side
her gracious looks sinks every confidence in so much sand
chances have come and gone, he cracks an empty barrel
she makes it laborious for an admirer to be single
can it be this difficult to...

Timid, gutless, young man feebly muttered 
Then mustered spartan courage and puttered,
And fluttered he like a dove
And stuttered to say his love,
But "Shoo - Shoo!" pretty, beloved uttered.

The Adventure of a Timid Man.  

The narrow dirt road I followed today was nothing more than a bumpy track,
 on both sides ugly trees and thorny, evergreen bushes I was trapped in 
the wilderness of enraged nature. Sun and deep shadows, god knows...

I want to have Her timid sigh
I wish I would belong to Her
to taste these lips of dope to fly
in future, time has knocked at door.
I dream of Her. Depression’s Hers.
I laugh for Her and have to weep,
We’re kissing in my secret thoughts,
Oh, Spring, be...

You caught the bird
That got away from me
So keep it safe
And hold it gently
Since its bones
Are easily broken
And though it might
Flap its wings in fear 
at first,
Stroke its feathers
And wait
And you just might
Hear it sing...

beheld by the timid heart with hopeful intent
any life seems both bold and beautiful
seems to be the essence of perfection
desirable and meant to be bound up with true loves gifts
but such dreams are fleeting and swiftly abandon the dreamer
leaving the coarse and the cold reality's...

Dedicated to Kyle, My Darling Son

Sometimes it’s hard to be me –
		so much pain to burn,
		so much to daily learn,
		so much joy to discern.
Sometimes it’s hard to be me –

It’s impossible to be you -
		I offer you my soft side
		but cannot take your ride
		or be...

Oh, my dear I didn’t touch you
Burning nights under the moon,
Being kind, I didn’t catch you
Hoping I will see you soon.
I was shy too shy too timid
For your penetrating sight
And I wasn’t cruel I didn’t,
Yes, I didn’t read your mind.
I had no my tears forgiving
There...
