The long gone down
sun's
last rays
burnt memories
on now cooling embers
of fading light
the past
bids me
goodnight.
Listen to poem:
embers slowly dying
turn to ashes
last campfire
of our summer
though memories
forever linger

Love begins like fire
Stirring flames of desire
Two souls smoldering
Among ashes glowing
Leaving embers burning

Gentle whispers shared
Burning embers rekindle
Flames reaching upward
Silhouettes moving slowly
Dormant pleasures awakened
as rain extinguished embers
of the long day's city heat
blurred traffic light reflections
painted puddles on the street.
The stars fade slowly
In the light of a dead moon
Twinkling embers of the cosmos
Passing unnoticed
On a Mardi Gras stage
Winter winds blowing
Mirrors reflect the room where
Ruby embers fade
Again I am alone and
My mind wanders through what ifs
So unexpected;
arriving after the fire,
as the embers cooled;
quenched with hateful bitterness.
Kindling for a sorry heart.
Cinders, embers, ashes
rain over meadows blue,
sailing celestial sphere
destined to get to you
They burn away people's ages,
just like the way pages
of a book get engulfed in flames;
the flames slowly swallowing all names.
Upon
vanity
of vanities-
fragile egos will ride
the wind
clasping
brief moments
ephemeral-
that die in tomorrow's
ashes
Speak not to me
Of lust
Bold flame
That scorches all but time
Nor love
Forever’s burning embers
Cold keeper of this flame
some days the world slips far away
like fading light at end of day
a quiet ache i cannot name
yet thunder stirs beneath the gray
oh precious Winter
finding warmth within the cold
a cozy fire born
the chills from day melt away
embers rise i shut my eyes...
Floating embers swivel golden flames go up
towards marked enclaves a midnight sky
skywards and onwards the stars and moon await
Sunset
Liquid gold...molten in the water's sluggish hues
of blazing embers.

In the chokehold
of a sweltering
August night
I fondly recall
the soft glow
of the embers
of the hearths
of December
White as light
Sleeping the night
Clothed in embers of doubt.
A mind so keen
Beauties unseen
Who will seek the truth to uncover.
Form:
tender touch ignites
burning embers of desire
intoxicating
hearts eternally on fire
locked in each others embrace

From the fire, from the embers
of his bungalow
he sears,
the nights latest victim
—new ash in the wind
(Dreamsleep: August, 2021)
Listen to poem:
Winter heart so cold
My fire extinct long ago
In ice, hail and fog
Small embers of love remain
Only you can rekindle
Everytime I hide
The tears that I fight,
I grow cold inside.
When I used to glow,
Unafraid it would show,
But now I'm dimming slow.
Raking, through the ashes
Shivers rolling up my spine,
Knowing, some similar day
These embers will be mine.

With smoldering eyes
His gaze leaves me feeling weak.
...I tremble with lust.
