petite orange daisy
perennials delight me
howling with gorgeous

daisy anticipates rain
day turns into night...

unspoken words linger
unfinished conversations whisper
soft gray clouds
veil sullen skies
a day of calm
anticipates a storm

An anxious tick anticipates a drop;
if it is thick, he knows he’ll have to stop.
But if it’s thin, a thought to make him smile:
plumped up again in just a little while…...

Crunchy circles of joy
cool on a baking tray,
creamy icing at hand.
Cold milk anticipates
chunky chocolate chips.
Crumbs spill with every bite,
calories forgotten.

There was an old lady from Madrid,
Who often at night recites the creed,
She anticipates nightfall,
The moonlight on the rear wall,
Opened a wormhole for a strange breed.

We are waiting
The sky does not breathe
Slowly we fall to bitter cold
Still nothing moves
We are waiting
It is so cold
My nape goes hot
And knows the snow
In the air
In stillness
It anticipates...

Hey Gotta Light?!
No I don't mean the flame. 
A light to guide me
As I walk away in shame. 
A flame to light the fuse 
To the bomb ticking inside
That anticipates eagerly
To expose all that I hide....

Condescending heights banish fast
mirrored nature, underestimates
pure beauty exposed by its past
still clarity anticipates,
awaiting the circle of life-
subsiding essence, cut with a knife....

My Heartbreaks,... anticipates,
Punishment for my mistakes.

Ridiculed for choices made,
Once thought friends, how they've betrayed!

Strength and knowledge on my side,
Refusing to ever run or hide.

Learning, growing, becoming me,
Caring not of who can see....

Darkness sits in his mind,
The night is cloaked in his chamber,
Tempest rages in his closet,
He searches for a way through,
He fights and stifles,
They push back and trouble sore,
It's an unending fight,
He anticipates an end.

Black and sleek she waits,
to pounce on unsuspecting foe
Whiskers a tingle she anticipates,
Black and sleek, she waits
come little mouse she states
I wont eat or hurt you,  you know,
Black and sleek she, waits
to pounce, on unsuspecting,  foe

Dreamy eyes
Catch me if I fall
Sucked finger
Love me as I am
My love is so deep

Tenderly it becomes
Honesty it progress
Smoothly it transforms
Eagerly it anticipates
Patiently it avoids

Seeking heart
Leave me no boundaries
Sexy lips
Kiss me forever
My love is so priceless...

Fear slithers in.
The snake in my belly
uncoils.
Wrestling restlessness
gives way
to unnerving unease.

I watch and wait.
The snake silences its strike
for now.
I begin to pace.
Anguished anxiety anticipates
as yearning’s yellow yarn
wraps me in the afghan of fear
and the future bites me again....

Valor is a better word





Valiance that invincibly fortitudes,
Anticipates its own unfailing courage,
Letting heart ignite the patriotic fire,
On boundaries proves the sanguine mettle,
Recognise and salute the chesty fearless.

Oh how she walks through the mist,
pistol clutched in her fist,
a dark angel she waits,
Her blood lust she sates,
the queen of the dead,
In a dress of ebony,
living in a state of harmony,
The Raven awaits,
for death she anticipates,
to fly free she needs,
but bound to the mortal coil,
she endlessly toils,
To find peace....

dark shadowy silhouettes

Moon anticipates
lovers secret rendezvous
bramble bush conspires ...


Moonlight masquerades
expose' of evening sin
Full Moon sips mirage

Damn, I thought I was past this,
At least on the surface.
Mangled misshapen life.
Back to drag me down.

Drives everyone away,
This ... sickness,
It poisons the corners of my mind.
I retreat into the darkest corner,
To find it waiting.

It grins like a Cheshire cat,
Stalks my movements.
Anticipates,
Lies in wait.
Always waiting for...

... a slip?...

the silence that listens -
the stillness that anticipates

what is one
becomes the other

   Earth spins
from yin to yang
- dark to light
- death to growth

what is one
becomes the other

infinite duality
less than grains of sand
in a mirror that reflects nothing
but a fleeting conscience 
- seeds from death
that grow in the light

  black is white and......

Give me extraordinary
even ordinaries 
give me luxuries
and diamond rings 
with a love that I 
can cling 
seduce me with your LOVE 
until I can't TAKE it anymore 
snuggle ME with YOUR embrace 
WHILE my body anticipates 
THE love WE'RE about TO make 
TAKE me TO another LEVEL 
a LEVEL that's higher then THE sky 
then I WILL finally realize 
It's your love I can't deny...

Ever observed a receding tide
and an oncoming wave,
battle for supremacy,
as skin anticipates contact 
against its nude,
only for the cancellation
of expectancy,
by the culmination 
of uncertainty?

That's life, dearest,
sometimes the positives,
absorb the negatives,
and the splashes are unmet,
whereas other times,
the scented water engulfs calves,
for the depths beyond,
or the pleasure, upfront....

A life forms within me
My womb opens itself
A tiny life within me
Depending on me for the very air it breathes
I lay my hands upon my tummy
Though deep inside
I feel my little being
Our hearts beat together
Our blood flows together
No longer am I just a woman
I shall now be a mother
A woman of virtue and gentleness
I will take care of myself
For there is a tiny one inside of me
That anticipates my touch...

There are Haters in society
who only seek to bring  grief 
to others,
causing them pain and
uncomfortabilities,
encouraging good people to sink
beneath their capabilities,
robbers of self-esteem and confidence,
They'll tear another down,
until they hurt themselves,
The objective is to eliminate the
competition,
but their "comeuppance" happens
when God anticipates their lead,
doing a 360 on their evil deeds....
