I wish
Some moments
Would last
Forever
To shield us
From those
We'd rather forget
I wish these moments
Would stop time
Hold us in place
We
Together
Forever
It would bind us
As we kneel
Together
Paying homage
To our garden
Or sunset walks
On lonely bush tracks
Heading toward
That illuminated cross
Where an old man
Spoke to God
Bruschetta brunch
On a Sunday morning
A simple food
A simple joy
To share
With you
When all all is spent
An sweat
We fall asleep
In each others arms
Under a whirling
Tropical fan
And I dream
It lasts forever
That moment
I see your smile
On return from work
I would die
For it
To last forever
But it never did
And I
Feel
I'm the walking dead
Mourning what was
And what is
I don't want this
These feelings
To last
Forever
If I had the luxury
Of youth to dream
I’d dream of a life
That would suit me so
I’d dream of a love
That would last the night
I’d dream of a world
That would be just right
But now in my latter years
I wonder down alleys
Of memories
Where I’d like to leave
These memories so
Lift a trash can lid
And drop them in
Walk away and be done
Just so
So I dream now
Of what has passed
And not of
What’s to come
But this will pass
And I’ll drop
These dreams of past
In that trash can
Down memory lane
And once again
Dream of a life
That lasts
Of love that lasts
Of a world that
Will suit us
Just so
Passion~an emotion, a strong desire. Some have only one, some have many more. For me, it depends on the day. Flowers are one of my passions, silk lasts when fresh are long gone. Another passion is giving, giving out free smiles. Making people happy, happy for the moment~for the day.
Another passion is to say Thank You, say Thank You to others and most of all to God. Our passions can and do change, change from time to time.

Though I try to deny it, I’m a hopeless romantic at heart
Studying happiness and love as if it’s some work of art
Writing it down, trying to capture the beauty
Like a fresh water oasis in this life of cruelty
I read books where the characters yearn and pine
While I imagine a love I know I’ll never find.
If to be loved you must love yourself, then I’ve got a long way to go.
How could I give my heart away before it’s even become whole?
Nobody wants fractured pieces of a girl who’s used to being unwanted and ignored
The traumatized parts of a girl left behind, who plays the victim with every typed word.
She’s full of the traits that they’re destined to hate
So she’ll lose herself to change for them till no color remains.
But one can dream, one can imagine a life.
One can even imagine finding somebody right.
But just like the poet falls back on her rhyme
The girl always retreats back to her own mind
To the books, the kind of love that can’t be real
Well, except for the couples that are all over reels
Or her grandparents, proving young love doesn’t always end
And that maybe the teasing wasn’t just as a friend
But 60s love doesn’t happen, at least not to me
Everyone around is just destined to leave.
So I’ll convince myself there was no pull at first sight
Push away that hope, sit down, and write.
Put on a love song, no, turn it off.
Don’t make me miss what I never even got.
Don’t let me yearn, ignore your racing pulse
“I don’t even like him,” but my heart knows that’s false
I’m a coward, I know. I won’t let anything out
Even though all I want is to open the door and shout
Maybe gain the kind of closure that he never gave me
And I’d stop wasting my time just sitting here and waiting.
But what I wouldn’t give, just for one chance,
To feel what love’s like, even though nothing lasts.
The dying of the day brings the beauty of the night,
Twinkling stars in an ebony sky,
Fireflies dancing on a gentle breeze,
A full moon rising with its pale white light.
Darkness subduing the glare of the sun,
A new world dawning, the reign of the moon,
This colorless world, so full of life
Filled with mystery, excitement, fun!
Insects singing in the new-mown grass,
Joined by night birds with their lonely songs,
The whisper of the wind, a soft, gentle sigh,
Mother Earth cooling from the day that is past.
Refuge for some, in the gloom of the dark,
Or long-sought freedom in the light of the moon
Each soul can find what it seeks in the eve,
A place to hide, a love, a brand new start.
The night lasts long, but never long enough,
For soon the sunrise will dispel the gloom,
The dawn comes slowly with splendor and color,
But the night lingers on, fighting against death.
With arms of gold, father sun gathers up the night,
Colors return and the night-sounds fade.
The night is gone, but soon it will return
With beauty and peace, such a delight!
Thy beauty lasts but for a moment in my mind
For worldly maidens die to quick and silent beats in time
While angel’s continuing choruses do loudly sing
A clear and constant melody of eternal spring
On the breath of this immortal love
All gardens bloom and fade above
The ancient cry of winter’s repenting
Lone, full, silent and unrelenting
Cascades of unknown dreams come tumbling down
Past sacrifice and sacrament new found
And come to rest in an eternal silver star-filled pool
Where the secrets of the sacred world again reign full
There the faces of constant angels shine out bright
From the reflected surface of the water’s divine light
As we are held in constant trust and love
Of the eternal sacred presence of paradise above.
Love exposed..
L is lasting
O is oneness
V is vastness
E is Eternally euphoric
Love is..
Always existed..
In the absence of darkness..
There is light and love..
Love is the universal language..
Timeless..
Endless..
Holds no boundaries..
Love is all and everything that is and shall ever be..
Love is all creation..
Love cannot be defined with just a feeling..
To define love is to be love..
To become love..
To soar divinely with love..
As it is a state of being..
Love exposed..
Love always lasts joyfully..
In oneness..
Surrender to vastness..
To be love..
In love..
As we all eternally dance in the flames..
Of sweet euphoric divinity..
It’s raining leaves and acorns
Contrast of sound
Silent shapes and colors drifting
Meanwhile the nuts
Shelling my roof, my deck, the air
Autumn whispers and flails her arms
No doubt now she’s arrived
She’s arrived in brisk fashion today
She’s armed and dangerous
and beautiful and clamorous,
turning bold and cold
and amorous.
Why do I say amorous?
Married couples will move from the sides
of their bed, to cuddle-pretend, igniting
fires in the center of their universe…
falling…falling…falling
in love, not minding the other
breathing down their neck,
the oceanic snore,
cold feet.
Cold feet, you say?
The flirtation of feet
will create giggles, in fact.
Only makes the heart grow fonder
in this autumnal swaddle.
If you're too young to understand,
well *bless your heart—
Go take a flying leap
into a crunchy, harvested,
wholesome pile of down…
down you go
in your innocence
make it last
because raking lasts,
as well—
you’ll find out soon enough
about aches and pains—
falling…

used to express fondness; or sympathy for someone,
oft said in a covert and condescending way.
Enjoy the moments, for they hold the key,
To a life abundant, where your spirit is free.
For life is only a moment's fleeting story,
So savor the moments, along the way.
Stop to smell the flowers, their gentle perfume,
Let their fragrance revive your spirit anew.
Learn from your past, a guide for the soul,
Lessons to cherish, as the seasons unfold.
For joy resides within us like fountain deep,
Seek not in distant lands, for joys to leap.
Within your being, the spring shall surge,
Unleashing the bliss that lasts forever.
Take time to be friendly, extend a warm hand,
Building bridges that happiness understands.
Through kindness and compassion, we find our way,
To a realm where joy and contentment hold sway.
Take time to dream, let your spirit soar high,
Like a star shining, in the vast sky.
Dream of possibilities, stories untold,
Where the magic of imagination unfolds.
Take time to love, and to be loved in return,
For love is the language by which heaven is known.
Marvel at the Creator’s wonders, the beauty they bestow,
Masterpieces in motion, that forever grow.
Take time to laugh, let your spirit take delight,
With mirth and joy, let your soul ignite.
Laughter, the song of your inner soul,
Good like medicine that makes us strong.
This Valentines day
