Quenching The Thirst For Knowledge
As I sat thinking the other day,
A flow of thoughts brought these words to say.
Some were fleeting, some longer lasting,
Like the evening shadows the sun was casting.
Quenching my thirst for knowledge to be known,
Neither rightness nor wrongness had a need to be shown.
Titles and labels were thrown to the floor,
As aspects and insights began

Quenching Thirst of Halloween Night
Moon rays creeps through darkness gloom of heaven,
Descending upon the small town of Salem.
Chill wind whistles through, forcing shutters to clatter, and wind chimes to ring.
Against scattered grayish clouds across the full moon
Silhouettes of flying, cackling witches on broomsticks and bats.
An open broken window and porch arch way
Monster spiders weaving silken nets to trap their

Quenching the Fire
From opposite heads I hear crackles
you call me larry, even though I am Hilary
with my presence, lots of hate sprinkle
both minds convert to a dirty granary
forgetting that every problem can be tackled
to hatred, silence is an auxiliary
friendship suffering a swollen knuckle
but all these should soon pass a refinery
forgiveness cures the broken ankle
and makes life less

Quenching the Fire
A thirst quenching kiss
a caress too much
warm waves of the pleasure
arouse surrendering body
with the slightest
teasing touch.
Lost in the moment
lost in you
discovering places yet anew
Passion increases
as we dance and weave
through the flames
increasing the pleasure
until two worlds collide
the hurt delights
our wild passion and abandon
quenched and tamed
The journey over
we lay in each others arms
whispering I love you
and each

Quenching My Thirst
Searching for a girl friend
but I doubt guys will understand
It's not that I've lost faith in them
It's just that I'm ready to explore
the person that I am.
I've had my share of boyfriends
and yeah those were nice....
But I'm looking for a feminine touch
and I'm looking for it tonight.
I don't know where this

A Quenching Consumption
Craving for its taste,
As I visualize the silhouette
It would draw, if it only
Were there,
Its aroma, its beauty, and the captivation,
A-h-h! How sweet!
As I imagined it slithering on my lips,
Gliding, sliding, as it slinks
Around my arms, my legs, my hip…
Submerging me with desire, with lust…
As it burns like fire, it’s
Something I admire…
Damn my desire!
Oozing in

Quenching
truckling to the wild wind's will, rain,
tickling leaves, twigs and tender shoots,
trickling around damp, mossy boughs,
tracing, seeping down below to thirsting roots.
