When first I saw you, so sorely I fell
Your radiant eyes set my heart ablaze
Upon my soul you weaved your wicked spell
Moulding me under your bewitching gaze
Thus I could not but be your willing slave
Ready to meet your every desire
So deeply did I your attention crave
Your very presence set my soul on fire
Twas when I discovered your diary
That the truth upon me began to dawn
Your angel face masked a fiend fiery
From your control then I had to be gone
A word of warning to all you good men
Beware the wiles of bewitching women

Ripened hearts start to whisper ;
happy faces emerge their glisters.
At night, the eyes dilate;
When dreams become their mate.
Call for warmth and devotion;
The truth of needed emotions.
Can this be a true love?
Or is it kind of?
They start Taking their path together;
Make promises that forever.
Their hands are embraced;
While their hearts getting blazed.
Can this be a true love?
Or is it kind of?
They piece together their future;
No matter who is their booster.
They wish this is their fact;
Accordingly, their world should react.
Respect, care, and empathy;
Are the address of their chemistry.
Can be this a true love?
Or is it kind of?
I believe that this is the love we all look for.

My love
My beautiful
Soul, your scent of deep love
Lingers, in your essence of life,
As I
Inhale
Eternity
And beyond, feeling your
Blue blood flow under my skin and
My bones
The core
Of my marrow
Knowing that you are my
Healing antidote in my nights
Of dark
Torment
Breathing for me
As your heart beats with mine
A sacred strength forevermore.
Till my
Last breath,
Devoted to
Your existence of love
Hearing the wind call your name ebb
Beneath
Sparks of
A glimmering
Rain of stardust and rings
Of Saturn, our mergence to the
Moon and
Back, and
Everywhere, for
I will wait for you in
The rays of the sun and glisters
Of stars.

GLISTERS
A brooch when well-made, can speak
Reflecting skills and passions of the maker
In a modern style, or maybe antique
It also says something of the wearer
Choosing that special item to display
As a bespoke item, it’s all the rarer
The design may symbolise a feeling
Whether a memory, love or pride
Needing no jewels to be appealing
Wrought into a beguiling shape
With gold or silver precious metal
A sense of inner beauty can escape
Fastened and held by a trusty pin
Resplendent, hanging on a revere
Reflected light shows more within
It has been crafted as a unique piece
With a sort of magic captured there
Tell me, do such wonders ever cease

God guides greatly
Governs gaze gently
Gears Gospel-gain gloriously…
God’s goodness
Generates giving graciousness
Gathering golden grain-grandness…
Guarding getting, gluttonous
Garrisoning greed-guilt, grievous
God girds grounded going, gorgeous…
Generously granting
Garnished growth gravitating
God goads grateful gladness-greeting…
God’s glamor glitters
Glows, glistens, glisters
Glorifying godliness-glinters.
*Psalm 86:10For thou art great, and doest wondrous things: thou art God alone.

A tale told by an idiot? Methinks
thou dost protest too much. In brevity,
the soul of wit, yet I shall be a fool,
for there are scarce more things in heaven, earth
than are dreamt of in your philosophy
and as the night the day, thou canst not then
be false to any man, nor die but once.
We are such stuff as dreams are made on, and
our little life is rounded with a sleep.
To sleep! Perchance to dream a little dream -
and lo! what light through yonder window breaks?
The fault lies not within the stars, but in
ourselves; we know what we are, but know not
what we may be, and yet, what’s in a name?
The course of true love never did run smooth...
If music be the food of love, play on,
for all that glisters is not gold, and you,
dear sir, have loved both wisely, well indeed.
Rest easy, bard, for well thou wore the crown.

Locked
Yes locked
her tumescent
to mine
I felt her rapid breathe
As
Mine dukes latched to her fundament
pulling her vibrate
'gainst mine wild
Ourn torsos locked
Her bulging eyne
brimming with love's wet
whilst mine
reaches hern depth
Ourn bodies yaw
loving each's sweat
Ourn maws exclamating
Vehemently
"yesss"
As mine lurch retreats
Ourn together watches
as the ebb from hern

Ceres, Goddess of Harvest: The Pact
Birthright rules they are Jupiter's sisters,
Hera, Vesta, Ceres, whose names glisters.
Ceres, the goddess of crop gathering,
whom the gods treat the best, no blathering.
When Ceres was sad, the harvest did die,
and the people did ask all the gods why?
Pretty Proserpine, Ceres daughter,
picking berries, her uncle did spotter.
The uncle was Pluto, and none other,
whose desires chokes empty minds to smother.
Pluto was the god of the underworld,
who had kidnapped her to his netherworld.
Proserpine met needs, kept in a dream,
ageless her stay be Pluto's fated scheme.
Jupiter sought out Mercury for aid,
a messenger god and smart son, think trade?
Proserpine marries, in turn, he must,
let her return for six months, would be just.
Pluto, Ceres, and Jupiter agreed,
six months growth, six months none, was then decreed.

Temple temptress, how I long for your lips,
your milky white skin and sweet-scented hair.
But alas, Athena has cursed you,
for Poseidon's rape and sordid affair.
Don't push me away, Medusa, my love,
you're mortal, unlike your Gorgon sisters.
And though inside you're filled with guilt and shame,
when you flash your scales, your green skin glisters.
If I but glimpse your face, I'll turn to stone,
but I see you through the lens of my heart.
And though slithering serpents crown your head,
it is not enough to force us to part.
Just say the word, and I'll kill Perseus,
like the Gods, he's cruel and merciless.

Goddess of love doth shine bright in the skies
As one planet blushes red among the stars
The moon, surrounded by twinkling fireflies
Looms ever so large to a distant Mars
Venus, adorned in her beautiful glow
Outshines Jupiter in the Milky Way
The dark realm of Pluto is too faint to show
But has five moons in orbital array
Diamonds in the sky show off their glisters
As my thoughts to the heavens take flight
A cluster of stars called the seven sisters
Twinkle brightly in an enchanted night
Myths of the night sky are never too far
I gaze in awe and wish upon a star
