Best Velvet Poems
Opal Stars, Velvet Dreams~
My thirst now deep ~ I long to quench
to sip this periwinkle wine
In goblets cut of harvest moons
impassioned pleas now cast of time
Tender kisses ~ sonnets placed
on fevered lips near rainbow streams
In golden castles made of sand
I've knelt beside you in my dreams
As whispered winds...

~ a Velvet Rose ~She writes with such fragrance....
Her words, like flowers
Flowing from her pen
Eyes like the ocean
Serenity, that never ends
The softness of her touch
Her heart melting from within
Such gentleness of colors
Like the still warming wind....
On journies she takes us
Her vision our eyes
The breath of her breathing
Brings life deep...

Velvet NightsI love the way you melt into my eyes,
And speak to me in fluency unheard,
That says to me your lust is on the rise,
My body and my mind by you quite stirred.
Impassioned arms, we're craving hot embrace,
And right before our yearning lips do kiss,
Ignited heat...

THE ROSE OF VELVET TIMEOn the dim lit streets of New York town
You danced for uncrowned kings
The whiskey harsh upon your lips
With eyes that could not see
And I'd await by the ocean's shore
With the horses tethered fast
For dawn would draw you homeward
From each exotic dance
You sought for what M'lady
While...

Blue VelvetLost in a sea of blue velvet
she dances, by the rhythm of aquamarine eyes
Beneath a parapet of stars where no one can foretell,
the sparkle of a smile is waving its goodbyes;
to loneliness
to sorrow
to solitude of morrow
Soft landings on the...

smoldering hot coals of flesh

Limoncello Deluxe Velvet Comfort DivineThere you are
you’re sitting down
feet planted firmly on the ground
staring at a blank screen
wrists held just so,
your anxiously poised
ready to go
writing all that you have inside
your blinking
liquorice windows
All you are hearing
is white noise
fingers tap tap tapping away
your travelling...

Velvet WingsIgnorant to passing time
Reality strikes its deafening chime
Unspoken words pass between
I and you, my darling queen
Lay your weary head to rest
With your arms across your chest
Now it's time to close your eyes
Whisper your final goodbyes
Let me go, we'll both be free
Cross the wasteland, past the...

When Velvet Turns To StoneWhen velvet turns to stone
When heart forgets the home
When lovebirds all have flown
When only hate is shown
When kindness turns to night
When blindness covers sight
When fear chases delight
When dreams have taken flight
When trust is torn in two
When old gives way to new
When dry replaces dew
When words...

One Velvet EveningTranquil, pearly moon arises, at the tangerine end of the memorable day,
Just like the ones we knew back when, until golden time was swept away.
Dressed up people laugh somewhere, very eager for a night on the town,
When the resplendent moon is wearing, twinkling diamonds in...

Come Float With Me On Velvet SoundCome float with me on velvet sound
Come float with me on velvet sound
as music wafts the evening air
With melodies of hope now found
and timeless days we both shall share
The setting sun of beacons bright,
so full of life and amber glow
Does dance the heavens curtained light,
brought...

Velvet Night
On a warm, velvet summer night,
When moonlight drips in a soft SIGH,
The scents of LILACS bathe starlight
And CAJOLE crickets to reply.
MISTY castles enchant SLUMBER
On a warm, velvet summer night
Spent hearts dream in shades of umber
In mystical moonstruck half-light.
Midnight mistrals, rufous bobwhites,
Chirp...

Green VelvetImpoverished, destitute no money to spare
This woman with green eyes and cascading hair
On a mission to find something to wear
Impress she must as though she hadn't a care
Green velvet drapes hanging in her foyer
Torn down and fashioned just for her
This woman in green shown...

The Velvet BeachLet me walk along the velvet beach,
collecting shells upon crushed stretch.
Sun rearing-up a nine year old — teach
her to be happy, care-free, an oceanic sketch.
Eyes wide open, examine the gifts of the sea.
Brunette hair cascading over the shoulders.
Her bare feet stride through shifting sands...
