Picasso's Dove
Let’s imitate we share it
The plan to make ends meet
Negotiating fairly
Things we don’t really need
But let’s get rid of “we”
For someone’s lofty goals
Aren’t relevant to me
And different from yours
Let’s set the sail to find
At least a metaphor
That hails a peace of mind
As it was long before
In period of time
When that Picasso’s dove
Saved lives of you

Let’s Hang Upon A Star
Let’s hang upon a star
my friend
And travel upon roads
that have no end
For today I peered upon your face
and reclaimed forgotten dreams
Then whitewashed memories
of earthly chaotic scenes

That Spot in Every Ocean
I had seen her beauty a couple places
mornings rising, evenings as it rests
that spot in every ocean
where the sun always looks its best.
Her beauty seemed radiant
it brightened my darkest room
now it lives only in my memories
she left me far too soon.
I placed an urn on the mantle
the room seemed to fade to

A Broken Couplet
I always thought a couplet was romantic - two lines and two lovers together,
‘til your hand brought a third line into our poem, breaking that rhyme forever.

Never Rhyme
I know I could do one thing at a time;
Not that I think doing two is a crime,
But simply I don't have guts,
So my love mocks, "Man, you're nuts.
Rock me; but it’ll be a crime if you rhyme".
Read she my rhymes, and I was in my prime;
Crossed she my lines, saying they

Release This
Should passion unspent never see the day
burn madly scorching yet not feel the sun
desires yearn within cold heart there stay
hence die a slow death as they have begun.
Would such need keep silent and so fade
long languish and drift slow as a cloud
this fervor untamed in loves bed unmade
burn hot and long thus cower never proud.
Deep

Love Rhyme
warm wind
humid heat
setting sun
loves meet
colored clouds
sparkling skies
mauve moon
love sighs
hopes heart
solemn souls
deep depths
love grows
ragged reefs
barren beaches
smooth sands
love teaches
bold beauty
mellow mind
witty woman
love rhyme.

Meandering Grace
Now here’s a tale I swear has not been told,
About the one to whom I have been sold.
A beauty who is wise beyond her years,
Her voice, I find, it lingers in my ears.
My damsel, she’s got lovin’ in her heart,
I promised her we’ll never be apart.
Enamors me and makes me willed and able,
Sometimes I swear

Try
Love, kisses, hearts
our love starts
with arts
I know you'll never
leave me however
I'll love you forever
It's different this time
we go together rhyme and rhyme
it was worth the climb
We're going steady
I know we're ready
my bestie
so if you'll have me
for who I am unlike he
I'll be free
