I've heard that love
is all about heart --
so dear, my heart is
yours;
I hear that loneliness
is all about apart --
so take my hand
it is yours....
I know that time
is timeless, when moon
and stars all a-line --
a stray puppy
a little kitten
come to a yard
no tender heart will
decline --
as a stray soul
looking for God
will find
grace and love are
His Featured Design --

Featured My old song "I USED TO WRITE SUCH NICE THINGS BACK THEN" True story U know my songs were so much nicer back then
I did sing myself to sleep with my pen
I now lye awake without a thought
Going through my mind? Not a lot
Mother Nature is screaming out to deaf ears
Father time sends warning,Our end time is near
We can write about love,we can write about hate
But to ignore there cries, is sealing our fate
As they cry to all the Wordsmiths,
Be not silent, scream out the laws
Write truth not myth
Expose all the flaws
Writing nice things for now, it's the past
having hope for the future, yes I suppose
The rate we are going, life's sure not to last
By going down silent, we'll regret what we chose

"I love you Sam", is what she says to me.
Do her actions say the same?
I know she belongs to another,
but I want her just the same.
I get lost, become transfixed
from the beauty in her eyes.
That is why I tried for that first kiss
you pulled back to my surprise.
Now here we are taking loves chances.
After so much time apart,
your memory never faded
I've kept it away safely
to precious for my heart!
You see, it's in a place that only God can hold.
For it's tucked away securely...
Right next to my soul!!

*Things I Miss*
I miss the soft touch of a woman's hands on my back
while we lay in bed just to relax.
The warmth of her body as we entwine
and the softness of her lips on mine.
The hand in hand walks
and heart to heart talks
that I see myself leaving behind.
The playful fighting,
and gentle biting,
these things are always on my mind.
A person there at night to hold
on nights like this that are so cold.
I miss these things so often overlooked
as if I'm trying to live some story in a book.
I'll hold onto these thoughts & feelings though,
until I find them or its my time to go...
"Sometimes its hard to see whats right in front of us, so I'll keep my eyes wide open & in
my heart I'll trust."

An Acrostic poem from a featured artist.. 1/20/2010
**Patience**
Partly to blame I
Accept my penance.
To quick to love,knowing the end was
Imminent. Yet I strive to
Endure......to overcome
Never thinking that loves
Choices,would lead me to an
Extreme conundrum!!!

**A Sweet Waltz**
As I kissed her lips
tasting her candy glaze
she bended ever so slowly
for a little of this mayonnaise.
And I said arise baby,
don't stay in that stance.
stand up, we'll embrace
and start this love dance.
A freestyle by a dear friend of mine who gave me permission to post this.
I hope you all enjoy. Please, he wants to hear your opinion.... He will be reading.....

***This, the sequel to my "Cocktail Lounge Debut".. A better understanding will come if
the first poem is read....
Details flood, organized his
mind.
Cocky, overconfidence looms.
He is the feature poet
tonight.
Famed now, the crowd
roars.
A vacation from all their daily
chores.
Three stories to read
ReAdY..
Steady, no trembling, he's
ready.
His name "Asavvy1"
Called over-head,
cheering, applauding, inspiringly
led.
Feeding off his words,
He feeds off their silence.
He knows they feel him,
they love his diligence.

Unabashedly he looks at her,
He knows her truth, yet doesn’t utter.
She hides in glass and forms a shell,
He sees her heart, but can’t define it.
Ashamedly she ponders his eyes,
Such beauty in their witnessings.
He barely notices her stare,
Until it bores right through him.
He takes a peek, and sees a skull,
Hovering where her head should lie.
Is it a vision, or is it the truth,
He doesn’t know and can’t divine it.
Wheeled upon a golden carriage,
She is encased in glass but thrice.
He sees the faults within the shields,
He can but doesn’t free her life.
A harmonious tune of sanctity,
Deliciously coated with her poison.
Does it sting when you bite it,
Yes, but he can’t decline it.
