Rekindled Love - POTD
Up on the sliding hill in the atmospheric river rain,
Captivating eyes of beauty, smile to me again.
Eyes full of rainy deluge, drenching in cold, over heart’s fire,
Like greening of balding hills, rekindle my waning desire.
Like the little birds over tall trees, swinging in wind, take flight,
Even though the rain falls like avalanche with full might.

Love Again
In the galaxy of regret and longing,
A wish called smiling love.
Time passes, I have stretched out my hands
To restore the bond from separation.

Rekindled
Making love to my memory
each tryst redefined
Perfection recaptured
reenvisioned sublime
Forever unwavering
all pain reconceived
The future rekindled
—my heart’s reverie

Rekindled Passions
How dreams of our youth now tiptoe
Alluring endearment memories impart
Enthralled in ardent past still aglow
How dreams of our youth now tiptoe
Rekindling passions thwarted long ago
Enamored in rhythms of your heart
How dreams of our youth now tiptoe
Alluring endearment memories impart

Rekindled
Hope has no direction when the deed has spoken its flower's doom
Set free from truths rejection to help our hearts reform
But ever so quietly reminiscent of the roses constant bloom
My heart still feels those times spent in the warmth reborn

A Love Rekindled
Ocean waves softly crashing under the moonlight
Spoken whispers as we walk hand in hand along the shore
Motion of the waves crashing is hypnotic and refreshing
Emotion expressed by your gestures leave me wanting more
Lips kissing, teasing me with your intoxicating woodsy scent
Clips of passion playing in my mind, trying to stay in control
Fingertips touching, exploring wanting

Love Expressed Is Love Rekindled
Love needs to be expressed in many forms, many ways, all the time.
Inaction, silence and neglect are love killers.
Love like a flower, needs to be nurtured and cared for.
The written word is a powerful mode of expression.
But the love letter has become a thing of the past.
However, the digital age heralds many new ways of

Rekindled Love
Love and second chances
They noticed each other’s alluring glances
So they decided to advance
To this place called romance
Will love strike again, probably not
But they agreed to be friends
While they both were hot
Love is like lightening
One bolt and you’re down
If it strikes again you won’t be
In the same place to be found
Even if their minds tell them

True Love - Rekindled
My darling wife, I love you so much.
I miss your warm and gentle touch.
Why is it that we no longer talk?
Or underneath the moonlight - take a walk?
My loving husband I hold you so dear.
You've noticed also that we're not near.
What is it that is out of place?
That's brought between us - so much space?
My

Rekindled Love
Although I met you long ago it seems like we just met. I remember it like it was yesterday. It's a day I'll never forget. And now you're here back in my life and feels just like a dream. Because the one thing I always remembered about you were your eyes. They still have that

A Rekindled Memory
I stand amid the flowers of a time gone by
I search my thoughts, not wanting to cry
Haunted by a memory so tender and sore
I still my heart as my knees begin to shake more
Her pretty smile is but a distant flavor gone sour
Maybe if I banish these memories ever more
My healing would know comfort and
