GOTCHA!
Tingly skies full of surprise, oh how I love when with surmise,
the little rascal aims his dart as if it were poetic art!
He will deliberately ambush you and your entire tush
with a gush loaded arrow he does romantically push
into hearts genuine states of goofy, gooeyed, loving mush.
No one on this earth can evade him, only

Romancing Pain
"Abraham, you hurt me deeply, failed me, betrayed me, and made my heart weep.
I thought I could trust, but you proved me wrong,
Took me for granted, didn't care strong.
But still, I forgive, not for you, but me,
To heal my heart, set my soul free.
I won't hold onto pain, won't retaliate,
I'll rise above, don't need your

Romancing the Silver Screen
Romancing the silver screen
Setting a million hearts ablaze
Through amorous dreams
Of actors lost in
Love, desire and longing
A make-believe that entertains
Takes us on flights of fantasy
With a clap of the clapperboard
A professional obligation begins
That ends with wrapping up the scene.

Rundown - Fiction
“You never forget that someone special, who melted your heart like molten metal.”Quote- Poet’s own
I hear your voice and tears rundown again
When birds sing us their sweet morning refrain
As babbling brooks flow and soft breezes blow
Time goes by slowly and I miss you so.
I see you in stars glittering brightly
When the two of us were

Tears Fall Again - A Triple Triolet
I hear your voice and the tears fall again
As babbling brooks flow and soft breezes blow
When birds sing us their sweet morning refrain
I hear your voice and the tears fall again.
Without you this life simply isn’t the same
Time goes by slowly and I miss you so
I hear your voice and the tears fall again
As babbling

Dancing.
We're romancing.
Laughter is in her eyes.
I whisper that she is my prize.
She sighs.

Romancing The Seasons - Title By Jim Slaughter
Autumn always tends to make me relax and unwind.
I’m not sure what it is, but I can’t get enough.
Maybe it’s the beauty that is so rare to find
That entices me when the world can be so rough.
Now, that my friend Winter is just around the bend,
I won’t be seeing Autumn for almost a year.
After three

Romancing the Serpent
Poetic depiction
prosaic description
Vowels come in colors
the rest black and white
They call to us orphaned
they call to us nameless
Our pens but a lifeline
that save with each write
To romance the serpent
to anger the saint
Each word symptomatic
our feelings acquaint
A bard or a preacher
their weapons the same
Whose caliber loaded
—to praise or defame

Romancing a Monoku Horror Story
I could watch a horror movie; but, only if you would hold my hand
As all the scary bits would frighten me, I hope you can understand
And you would have to stay a few days until it was out of my head
Be the action hero and check for the monsters underneath my bed
Readily accept calls in

Romancing In the Coconut Tree
You continue to play the game and looking for someone to blame
You continue to play the game when everything around you is so lame
The days are sprinting by with a profound message from the anxious sky and frustration is circling around the fence, and the lion is running around in its den with blood twirling

Dancing
To jitterbug and jive, perhaps to feel alive;
Dreaming that I too could dance as well as you;
Strutting to a tango in Chichicastenango
Touring a veranda edged with jacaranda.
Four eyes eagerly dancing; engagingly entrancing
Above paired swaying hips and rippling tender lips.
When the musical combo broke into a mambo
Our hearts began drumming to a secret thrumming.
We did a

Romancing Summer
When breezes whiff its tangy scent
As night's intention roams with force ;
To gift flamed August its ascent
On red-washed earth from cliffs to gorse,
That by romancing through the haze
Our tanned waterfront beams anew--
Their pearly coastlines all ablaze
With varnished shells of every hue...
How in moonlit dusk winging low
Arms stroke, up
