Nature's Tapestry
A winsome weave, simple and real,
Warp and weft; a tight twill,
A weaverbird’s nest, strong and snug,
With soft crossways and tumphy tug.
Subtle cozy patterns, seldom revealed,
Cynical twists like waves unsealed,
The mirror of peafowl’s courtship field.
Matchless display by the peacock,
Dance elevated by love, rattle of feathers in rhythmic clock,
Enticing and dazing the hens, with a silent poise,
All

Courtship Encumbered
Nestled is the slender twisting trail canyon between timeless steep
aspiring mountains and meditative sopheric sea waters
The frail road deepens into lofty thickness further from the harsh
volcanic valley where passion’s throes are ever in abeyance as days grind
on at a petty pace, as winding cathartic minds strive to be free and leave their
fears

Pick up line
I met her at a place I dine
along a lonesome road
I tried to think of a pick-up line
I went into clever mode.
But they've taken all the pick-up lines
I didn't want to offend a date
Should I buy her, her choice of wines?
I spent ten minutes in that debate.
Then I asked her if her name was Google,

Love is Coming
When a bee flies around the flowery garden;
When zephyr from the sea breezes over;
And when sunbeams slowly rising;
Oh I sense that love is coming.

Joy, Purple and Simple
She sat unnoticed in the corner,
Strumming her guitar with quiet fervor.
Her name was called, and like a spark,
She ran toward us, youthful and stark.
Her hair, untamed, yet free with flair,
A boyish shirt and casual air.
Slimmed face, petite, with Asian eyes,
A modest flower beneath open skies.
Like a seed, her presence grew with time,
February passed, an ordinary

Snap into Me a song
[Verse]
He snaps into me
in all the right ways
in all the right places
that magic phrase
he completes me
says what I am feeling
Excites my breathing
gets me worked up and on fire
lights up my hearts desire
How could he walk away?
how could he leave that way?
Our love now in memories
never fully realized
And now I am left with a half open

Adoration with wings
Finding myself in tune
With steps in the wind blowing
My dance then to construct
And in love a face a glowing
Nymphs spellbinding in the heart
A maiden with the music they sing
I see those trees - the hues of desire
The God's look in awe dancing with wing
Blue - the beauteous blue skies
The muse with glee and opportunity
Blue skies,

Courtship and Commitment
Courtship and Commitment
I Saw
I am interested
I presented myself
Responded in kind
We agreed, merged thoughts
The ingredience was there
Exploration
Satisfaction with two
The families were happy
Procedures and follow-through
Happy times, then exploration
A teaspoon of sugar
Added to the mix
Satisfaction and commitment
There should not have been
A Mist

An Alliterative Pursuit Of A Lover
An Alliterative Pursuit Of A Lover
I will firstly frankly forwardly forthrightly fastidiously befriend you.
Then I will completely correctly courteously candidly chastely court you.
Then whencesoever I have wonderfully wackily warmly wooingly won wed you,
I’ll be free to laughingly longingly lustily lecherously lasciviously licentiously lengthily ~ly ~ly ~ly ~ly ~ly ~ly ~ly ~ly ~ly ~ly ~ly ~ly

Cool Companion
Barbie and Ken, Barbie and Ken,
They’ve been an item since Christ-knows-when.
He’s not Kenneth Connor, he’s not Kenneth Clarke
Just Ken in the daylight and Ken after dark.
Ken’s a rôle-model for American guys,
He spoons Freddy’s custard over apple pies;
His judgment’s keen ’cause he never took drugs

Courtship
Woman, I want to court you, my dear
Listen to my words and to my speeches
I want to love you dearly and deeply
Like no one has never dreamed of.
Woman, I want to give you my love
I want to forget my being and soul
To please you
Woman, I want to court you
I want to love, and admire your

Courtship of the Butterflies
Two flitting butterflies rising from the ground
Up, up they go, twisting round and round
Obviously he loves her, his courtship is his dance
Two little butterflies on a carousel of romance
I'll dance around you Bluebird
I can do that too
Perhaps I would look foolish
But love compels me to
I'd do all sorts of crazy things
To get to see your
