enchanted berries give me a nod
but I was warned by my cousin Todd
wizard tree berries will make you itch
edible only to a pure witch
I don’t know if he was kidding me
Still, I avoid that tempting fruit tree
Knotted beating hearts slow dance in the night,
In mysterious, enchanting moonlight.
Drawn to the beguiling stars all about,
Obscured by drifting clouds, dance in delight.
Moon stepped from the shadows and advanced her
Noble grace, weaving silver beams and lace
Round Venus, Pluto, Mars, and Jupiter,
Threading them together in her embrace.
Bad balloon
Harassing the enchanting moon
Covering song performed by wham
While playing lead singer in the legendary contra band
Dropping buds
Not knowing what?
Is going on
Fooling around, dropping potential cancerous bombs
Smoking I mean
Luring teens
Turning them ugly, abusive and mean
Disrupting travel
Unleash verdict’s parachute gavel
Sentencing the trip, ‘unravel’
Due to going pop
Taking a sniper shot
Sending the cargo towards the ground
Hopefully, found
Going down
Identified not the telescope, Hubble
Now in major, government trouble
It’s fantasy bubble
Has no one to cuddle
Realizing action was a must
Peaceful bust
Sending bad balloon to an eternal rest
Deeming it the best
Allowing the mess
To confess
And surrender, accepting arrest
In my youth I dreamt of playing the piano
filling the nights with romance and melodies
orchestrating sound and beauty
Reading and interpreting sheet music while
compressing innermost feelings into sequences of notes
translated in the language best understood by the heart
Swirling to the beat of rhythmic grace
rich with aphrodisiac chemistry
intoxicating mesmerizing beguiling
I’ve dreamt so long of pleasuring the night
to charm the moon and stars above
with my hypnotic serenades and symphonies

Come to me like a wild horse unbridled longing for the river
like a morning prayer on the heart wanting nothing more
Come to me with pining like a widow waiting for her love
like a soldier in the trenches, begging for cease fire ...
Come to me like a dove gliding over peaceful waters
like the otter and the kelp in a symbiotic drift
Come to me like stars of night shining with accord
like the morning sun at dawn, rising still on you
Come to me like a morning cup of coffee freshly brewed
like a sleeping soul awakened by dreams of yesterday
Come to me like the diner bell exhaling all your waits
like a soft caress on the skin filled with enchanting sin
come to me lover with your loving touch,
for I love you, so much !
Once upon a magical evening an enchanted fairy I happened to see
dressed in a fantastical dress with two dappled wings of lace,
she shone like the midnight sun;
I must confess, she looked rather whimsical
sitting there by a green wooden door, waiting for your lore !
And with no persuasion but thrill did I start off,
To speak of what ever this fairy desired to hear.
As soon as I was given the audience did I speak of what I held back as though I waited all my life to speak at that moment.
Inspired by her compelling grace and charm did I begin a tale that I deemed fit to be heard only by a few,
"Once", I began " in a land, lived a man who saw something he couldn't share;
A beauty he couldn't afford to tell about and a power he craved for only himself but he had to let go of his ambition and share with his people for they were lost before now and with what he knew things changed for good both for him and his people, which was a wonderful thing to behold and know off".
I spoke and said this little tale and to my surprise this enchanting fairy loved it through and through,
This is a relief I hoped for and I got a price too, her smile it was.

Meditative Contemplation
65
Within cosmic, cosmos, thou art an enchanting flute, His own
Thine within mine intertwined a delight, hence a light hearted evocation
Diva in so many colors, aromas, melodious trochaics
Unprecedented thou an enjambment in mine, a light along the flight of a heart song, arose
Thine within mine a blossoming soothing hue, so ably parable, so in muse
The greetings whence seasons meet the horizon, the eloquence unlocked
The oceanic sea world and the foamy dew, a drop, a subtle nuance, humbled then
Within thine, enlightened the silhouette, submerged my body, a glow, amen
My teardrops of salt, serene, my own glum and glee, turn and toss
Thine within mine a blossoming soothing hue, so ably parable, so in muse.

I need you by my side forever more
Adventures are easy for someone I adore
I'm addicted to your love every single day
You please me in all sorts of ways
Holding you in my arms I can't let go
I am crazy about you surely you know
Our bodies unite forming a single soul
You push my buttons, I'm losing control
In my dreams are perfect images of you
Caressing my body you know what to do
Loving you is easy, it is time to explore
Your gentle touch excites me like never before
As I gaze deep into your captivating eyes
The sun on the horizon begins to rise
My love for you no words can express
Your enchanting smile leaves me utterly breathless
Enjoying rich enchanting melancholy
what the Sun cannot see it captures;
Sensory deprivation creates vision,
a blindfold is the allure of darkness;
What the Sun cannot see it captures,
wishes ignite under the moonlight;
A blindfold is the allure of darkness,
shooting stars give laser sharp focus;
Wishes ignite under the moonlight,
they explode into supernova;
Shooting stars give laser sharp focus,
inspiration becomes a tactile sense;
They explode into supernova;
Overwhelmed by everything you feel
inspiration becomes a tactile sense;
You can do it once you define it;
Overwhelmed by everything you feel
sensory deprivation creates vision;
You can do it once you define it,
enjoying rich enchanting melancholy.
You sigh like a jazz nightingale,
Youre sweet as a croissant,
And bouquet,
With your hands upon the petals,
And crescents,
of your hips,
Within stillness, youre swaying,
As fine as can be,
And our love parts the midnight clouds,
When you sway,
Youre even lovelier,
Than an evening rose,
And I love you,
Simply and ethereally,
Love you lovely lady,
With all of the flowers in the gardens,
To sway with,
Enchanting and lovely,
I wanna be enchanting with you,
I wanna be enchanting with you,
With all of the flowers in the gardens,
To sway with,
Enchanting and lovely,
I wanna be enchanting and lovely,
I wanna be enchanting,
and lovely with you

Fragrance of butterflies
or angel flutter
and
cloud float.
Scent of pastel
sun butter,
a soprano bird note.
A Greek sister, from my past,contacted me.
It was as if she were here,not across the sea!
What a difference an email astoundingly can make.
In a world of indifference, here came love not hate,
Touch the many souls as you do really care for.
On each holiday,a remembrance, forever more!

Sunrise I'm alive
Morning glory I'm enchanted
Early morning dream
