   for my sun 
in shimmering shades

Resorting nature of Years and year's,
Moving miles and miles,
Life is just a bit of moments filled with sheer joy as I share it with You, my lovely Adam.
You won't believe, Its even been more better...

Through, Machu Picchu, Nazca Lines, Cusco, and tunnels 
Through jungle and raging water currents and channels
Among ancient pyramids and Inca castles
Looking for gold and emerald crystals

Kayaking through a raging river down steep waterfall
Just before the...

The sunset underlines divine visage as it shines above the lake
Before the stars ornamenting curtain of night will awake
The tired police sergeant drives home from shooting range  
When he encounters something strange

As he slowly...

queues of cars at red lights, what, if anything, is in
the offing for supper.  A glass of wine is...

This beautiful breathtaking city is not near the sea
It is in the sea
Like Venice it has sublime majesty
With water channels stretching for infinity

But with one difference while in Venice people travel by boat

They say April love is for the very young
This is the time that new flowers to life have sprung
When smell of spring gives air to the lung

Hills endlessly roll
Nostalgia enters the soul
The towering oaks cast shadow
Upon a beautiful meadow

The marsh marigold’s smell
Excites the senses as well
Water springs from the well
Old oak has a story to tell

The sharp rocks separate land from...

His awesome visage is ornamenting every tile 
But in my pyramid as he gazes towards endless sky...

Eerie mist forms in this light

tickling my soft sensitive skin
sounds like violin

they lovely sway
dance in rhythm
