As each dawn draws nearer to
its dusk, i'm one step closer to you.
One more day of life united under sun
and moon shadows.
From snow storms to sun showers our
seasons grow colorful.
Painted in shades of rainbow passion.
Each moment nurtures our love blooms.

the sun rose behind..
your smile I held in my hands..
here till the sun set..
"Sunrise vs Sunset"contest
The sun goes up
The sun goes down
The sun goes up
The sun goes down
Everyday gets a little easier
Or am I pretending?
Some get annoyed with me
Saying I'm a fool
So I keep my feelings locked away
Showing nothing; staying cool
I know that I should not speak of you
I know that I should let you go
It's hard to do when you truly care
It's hard to do when your heart says no
I've included my prose for this entry, it started as a haiku,but i converted it to a

THE (lake) STARS
the spring sun has started thawing the frozen countryside. I spend the afternoon
gliding
across a sheet of glass on lengthy points. silence banished by joyous bellows as the
ice
is scarred and chipped. time slides by while smiles are shared and glossy eyes come
in
line. Doom lingers in the rays warming more than the frigid lake. fingers meet. hearts
skip beat. the sweeping off of feet. unnoticed. the moon chases the sun from the
sky. the
population dwindles to two. me and you. the evening breeze chills the landscape.
we look
into the mirror below us and see that we are standing in the heavens.
frozen reflections
capturing infinity
starry sky on ice

as the sun sets in tha sky
and tha birds all sing their
heavenly angle lullabys
heads lay to rest for tha night
but it always seems i put up a fight
sleep never comes easily
thinking of all tha possibilitys
will u go or will you stay
dont wanna take it day by day
heads pounding
heart beats faster
salt covered tears
streaming down my oh so sad face
tha way u speak and
hold me close
thats why i cry over you tha most
never in my life ive felt
tha love im hidding under my belt
those three words i want to hear so bad
say them back
and be so glad
ur wonderful smile
your reasuring eyes
makes my heart beat faster
for quite a while
so as tha sun sets
and tha birds sing
ill still be here,
thinking of u
and wiping my tears
I am so tired of convincing myself
that tomorrow, the sun will shine
I wake up and see it so differently
The clouds just covering the sun
these clouds covering my heart
I am so tired of saying you'll come back
that tomorrow, you will come
I fall asleep and dream of it
The clouds parting from my fears
Parting from my heart, so I can feel
I am so tired of wishing for senseless things
Maybe tomorrow I won't be wishing
Maybe I'll wake up and there you will be
Your green eyes shining in the sun
Your smile making me shine bright
I am so tired of counting everything
from yesterday, and beyond that
Falling into your arms and coming right back
The rain washing our fears away
The rain, background music to our life
I want to be awake and never miss a thing
I don't want to wish for yesterday
Because sleeping is easier when I don't
The sun will shine everyday
With or without you by my side
She Says farewell
He looks into her eyes
He does not see him anymore
Not so long ago
He was her whole world
Now those eyes are still & cold
They do not anymore hold
Pleasant surprises to unfold
The day was clear, Sun shinning bright
Amongst the crowd
He felt lonely, cold & dark inside
His hands searched his chest
Trying to hold his heart-from falling apart
His fingers felt
An empty boney cage
Not even a faintest beat left
He looked up, Sun shinning bright
Clear blue sky
Again his hand searched, his fingers felt
The empty boney cage
His heart stop beating
As she left
... King Arthur had an enchanted sword,
do you, will it fell me?
come, let's ready ourselves
for embrace of the duel,
the nearest mirror recasts the
glittering joy of swords in our eyes...
... our eyes are the swords...

... I felt your breath
in the edgy delight of its
lemon flavor dancing on my teeth
and not waiting for the sun to leave
I sought a tavern at noon,
'what will you have?'
the shaman barkeep asked,
my finger traveled across the space,
and 'I'll have a draft of that spirit,' I replied,
he paused, smiled, I suddenly realized I wasn't drinking alone
in the breeze through the door,
you and I
commingling lip-red wine,
plunging, bathing, not leaving
until the sun again at high noon...
... and still I feel your breath
while spinning, foolish
and lemon-anointed, on the
edge of dancing teeth...
Holding on to my words
Forgot to tell you all I had to say
Holding on to my Words
Missed Chances, Chances not taken
Holding on to my words
The sun set with your kiss
Holding on to my words
The sun rose with my dreams of us
Holding on to my words
The need grows deep inside, I get butterflys
Read Between The Lines
The sun set with a golden glow the day on which you I met
On that special walk in the beautiful park as the sun set
The sun set a glowing red as I walked with no threat
Amongst the trees of different hues as the sun set
The sun set slowly going down dropping, to it I'm indebt
To enjoying every minute of color as slowly the sun set
The sun set quietly didn't say a word but drew
Others to come in and watch closely as the sun set
The sun sets for you and me my handsome dear
Come close lets get all we can from life before fully the sun sets
as the sun sets
your eyes start to glow
the sun shines off your face
i feel more then just alive
as i touch your hand
i leant against you
as our heads touch
i look into your eyes
you give me a smile
--to be continued sorry, i gotta go--
A sprig of flowers danced the dawn
Tip toed merrily across the lawn
The delicate ankle softly trips
As the dew her ethereal sips
Around her feet the birds did sing
From her smile the sun did bring
April showers and tippling rainbows
From her eyes the suggestion grows
Colours burst and blossoms fall
The gentle whisper of natures call
In the orchard we sat and whiled
Both at peace and dreams beguiled
And as the sun sets
In orange and red rivulets
The suns fall is the moons call
Stars are bright as moonbeams fall
While she skips and dances beams
I hold my heart, collate my dreams
Of a sprig of flowers forever mine
Of setting suns and dawns divine
The sun shines again
for he smiles.
The indeterminable day no longer flees or hides
for its end is sought, as is its beginning
for he smiles.
Confusion though abiding
must wait the laggard servant
scolded by the Mistress Aphrodite
for he smiles.
Want must find a different dwelling
for the moment un-housed by sweetest joy
for he smiles.
The sun shines again.
The forest was ours—
The trees swayed in
Unison with our steps.
Our words became
Whispers in the wind.
The sun shared silver
Shafts of bright light
Through restless leaves
As you held my face
In your hands and
Tenderly kissed my eyes,
My cheeks, my lips.
I was cradled in the
Warmth of your love.
We reclined on a bed
Of leaves and shared our
Thoughts and dreams
For hours until we watched
The golden sun disappear
Into the twilight sky.
Under the stars, I held you so close, we danced to the music of nature. I kissed you as the sun
rose and when I opened my eyes, I just realized it was the sun threw the window. And all it was
a painted dream
