Paired Poems

Parable paired in a pairing unit, you knead--- A Translation of Nirmalendu Goon


You and your pliant touch lit me up, there my diva, morn.
After the shower, your wet hair and your braid, in trying untangling
Humble effort, down to earth
I rush to thee, my open palm , water soaked paperspace, and
Eyes soothing a time, comforting chime, a return to home, shalom , or even nonetheless, Perhaps
Surrounding you, an

Paired Possession Virelai

A stem sprouts leaves two
Holding cute bud new
Grows free
Unfurls charming hue
Makes a flower blue
Blooms glee
Unframed scene sticks to
Pleased plant, shines with dew
Silky.

Bridge the two banks see
Standing on strong knee
Crossbow
Structure so crafty
Makes closeness lovely
Somehow
Bonding seems to be
River’s sole trustee
To show.

Longing two hearts grow
Desires in spate flow
Find clue
To bloom life nouveau
Paired love’s floral glow
Debut
Dear link two lives

Perfectly Paired

Your heart and mine totally ensnared
As if by design they were perfectly paired
You are my paper that perfect writable blend
I am your words always lovingly penned
Our eyes always locked in an unbreakable stair
Like a perfect invisible bridge that's intuitively there
Our souls locked together like DNA
A perfect double helix in every way
Our fingers interlocked like bricks

When Love Was Paired To Blossom

When Love Was Paired To Blossom

When love was paired to blossom,
     'twas lost words in a song,
Oaths and dreams didst fill the air,
     'tis distance true and long,
Thus foolproof days fleet away,
     September launched to June,
Paired love

Lovey Paired Things Up

Lovey was a witch who like pairing things up
Salt and pepper shakers, a dog with her pup
She would pair dinner plates before she could sup
She was a woman who had not quite grown up.

Lovey actually never had a man to call her own. 
If she had, she would have children home-grown.
This was not to be,

And Into Eternity We Were Destined, Paired

And Into Eternity We Were Destined, Paired

I dreamt of the romantic silken bed we shared
As night's heaving soft-breath matched your beauty divine
And into eternity we were destined, paired
To eat love's sensual feast, forever entwined.

Among the heart's glowings and sweetest of treasures
Lives again, first kiss from your voluptuous lips
Life gave a plenitude of love beyond measure
Yet

Personification Paired

PERSONIFICATION PAINTING
Most of the day,
Alone on this wall we stay;
When the doors open wide
Shy colleagues ,behind curtains hide;
On view for all for free  see
Our lives, on show for all to see;
On the seat ,over there,they sit
Often bored,only their kids will admit;
Silence is the rule in our home,
Our photos and bios well catalogued;
Up close into

Need Shared Paired

Needs I have, a few too many to
       Mention to you who have your own.
     But friends that share common needs
                   Often join together

Paired Parings

A sister strides amongst the clouds 
with teardrops in her eyes.
wisps of hair fly in the wind as
thunder claps her cries.

I call to her, as up I rise
with sunbeams on my lips
I grasp her cheeks with my two hands
as round her the wind whips

Her tears kissed dry she lightly trips
down to a lower plane
where breezy

Paired, With Reservations

Paired, With Reservations

The soft curve of her spirit- 
Her true shape only emergent after countless
Half-glances in the half-light of morning’s edge.
What line is drawn by the knife-edge of the sun’s first rays?
Who is slain in that prime, resplendent arrival?
Regardless it is a shiny death: an incidental manslaughter
Making new cuts and reshaping the structure of our
