Beautiful Lady
What a beautiful lady standing in front of me, I imagine what life would be. Her beautiful smile, so big and so bright, Makes me know that what I feel is right. With every laugh and every tear, Communication and understanding are clear. All our fears seem to be put to rest, Whenever she cuddles into my chest. An everlasting friendship and love, Makes...

Premium Member The Gardener
The Gardener I thought, could I shape the clouds, Those ones on high, With hand and mind What greater blossoms then would come to eye!? Beauty of some rarer orchid, or rose? Or just the tip of my protruding nose, sniffing for scents where they are not…? Botany my heart!...

It Will Be Beautiful
When I don't understand I look to you for words to speak, And every time it brings me to my knees, What I cannot describe yet know inside, Leaving me speechless, making me cry, Do I need an explanation or validation, What if it is just love without expectation, You brought me here in this place, To create that freedom and space, And...

No Gentle Hands
The master cracks his whip across the horse’s trembling flank, pushing the beast to its limits until the wildness snaps and the horse reacts, a flurry of chaos beneath the sting. When silence falls, the master believes the animal has learned, believes the wounds are healed. He reaches out with clean hands, petting the horse's weary muzzle, his fingers gentle, but not soft enough. The horse,...

The Decline of Humanity
See the world around yourself, See the people around you— The scary face of people, The crying face of children. They are scared, lonely, and sad. They fear the world. See the fearless around the world. The mothers are crying with children in their hands, Praying for their children’s life, While others are praying for their children’s future To be bright. People say, “This is the...

I Love You Anyway
I held on all that time, believing your lie, Thinking you were using me deep down inside, When I questioned things you reassured me and made me believe, That this whole time you were in love with me, Just one question after I sacrificed my whole life, And the response was I don't know if I want to be with...

Tchotchke
Spring cleaning comes and I seek to expunge from every counter and corner All clutter and dried rose that serves no purpose Knickknacks and little trinkets all go in the basket. To be given to those who have lesser or resold or simple lost forever There it sits on the mantle, an object grotesquely elephantine Rounded edges so it fits...

To Ponder or Not to Ponder
To ponder or not to ponder - that is the question. Is it a waste of my precious seconds, minutes, hours To dwell on the questions that plague my mind? I spend my waking and waning hours mulling and considering, Crashing waves of question marks and possibilities Dance around in my mind's eye, quelling the beast of sleep. A skeptical girl's...

Beyond Words
In the unspoken stanzas of glance, A language of love is skillfully enhanced. Flushed cheeks , shy eyes , Glimmering like starry night skies. The melody of footsteps, a syncronized pace, A duet of devotion in every gaze. Fingers touch, cheeks glow red, Whispered secrets in the heart's closest thread. The eyes deep dialect, a secret code, Conveys the heart's deepest abode. The soft curves...

Premium Member Sit For A Spell
When I'm with you on the phone I finally feel I'm not alone If you could ever sit with me I'd take that opportunity To tell you all about my life So that if you became my wife You'd know me, nothing I would hide We'd take our days and wèeks in stride And as the years stretched very long...

In the thoughts I have of us We sure have lots of fun Thoughts of us together Thoughts of us as one And in my wildest dreams, I've had Big ones where snowstorms reigned, Hot ones where fireplaces roared And we added to the flames But take away the snowstorms Take away the flames Take away what passion comes When calling out our names And what's left...
