curiosity interludes
dreamscape silhouettes
vermillion light shadows 
light your pathway
all physical you left behind....

Bad poetry is what one gets
when horny people don't have sex
so if this rhyme seems juvenile
give me a break, it's been a while...

Mistress Nancy lost her shoes.
Dancing  nude at Bonnaroo.
Tickles her fancy.
With Master Yancy.
On romantic interludes.

far away
daydreams

of   winter fog
of   sunny days
of    life   at play

It’s those desolate interludes
that create the new space

For our souls to exhale
—and our dreams to escape

Chill of silver frost
revealed hours of zenith artistry...
Entranced we found love in
frost-tinged interludes watching
winter's splendor unfold.

Interludes
                 await
   holding silence
   between two
notes
of Satie wit
        they sit
in anticipation-
    in my ear
     sounds
      perfected
on
pause...

Summer sunset the color of Red Roza peaches
Turning up memories from life's furthest reaches,
Of interludes and warm sunny beaches
Of love, simply love and all that it teaches....

Let us not take for granted the glory of the sky.
The ceruleans, bittersweets, flamingo-pinks.
We need the interludes too - a dusty-gray sigh.
Let us give praise as the Dayspring winks.

keyboard
chasing ripples
through notes’ interludes,
pounding, drowning crushed love…
ebony

fingers
like tendrils
stiffen from refrains,
despair on moonless halls…
blistered

I
contemplate
in my lonely
mood
there
to find atmosphere
feeling colour
&tone
fills the mind with
       imagined scenes

        fills the empty heart
   where  loneliness 
..lives apart

when the clock ticks slow
   restlessness
 ebbs to 
    then fro...

Thoughts, breathless,
disperse like clouds
in the day.
Interludes,
cut short in the wind,
gone
with the time.
Empty caves of remembrance,
torn in a starless sky,
the light of bygone days,
extinct.
Broken watch-glass,
torn off hands,
covered by the sand
of the past....

Desire lives inside me
Of that I cannot lie
But I choose to await you 
And settle to apply
Feelings into poems
Unspoken interludes
Heartfelt words and music
Of love and gratitude 
You're my true companion 
I've everything to hide
To whom it may concern
I choose you as my prize...

quietly
        tenderness
              descends:
peacefulness
arrives
        and stays,
interludes
               languish,
surround 
          my whole
                   being,
fill it with
             contentment
and
       shalom

When I wander the realms of daydreams,
   and fond memories of being with you,
      my heart engages in sweet release.

Within those indulgent moments
   I find solace and a calming peace,
      brief interludes of contentment.

Graceless facades---
The tiring age old game
Of mindless testing
Grows heavy beneath the brow.
The charade is hard to sustain---
Sometimes impossible---
Yet we must bear it
Time after time after endless time.
The cold fire keeps rolling,
Pushing testing the old confines
Beneath the eyes---

How much longer........

In slumber’s hold, love’s dream remains secure,
untainted by tomorrow’s blighted days 
and quiet dark yields visions to procure;
infusions, gently seeping as she lays
in tranquil seas. Poetic verses rise
to take her soul with rhythmic tenderness,
caressed by subtle rhyme she reaches highs

...sweet interludes of pure exquisiteness....

Promiscuous shadows haunt the night
Forging their maps by day
Passing through the ethereal unseen
Lunging lurid luscious

Empires of sadistic interludes teach verse
In exchange for tempered instrumental falsetto
How can the night be so quiet?

In your city, on your street 
Inside
Without warning.

A dog barks and out bursts
The answer....

"Interludes Experimental" 

Written in clouds
what eyes miss
patterns repeat
in minds 
like poets speak 

fast and irretrievable
irrelevance misses
the parenthesis
buried in interludes
experimental 

in minds 
like poets speak

My heart's secrets 
Spill as viscous substance
The seal split
Purity spoilt
From your poison in my veins.

Slowly I sip
From tainted ambrosia
Interludes of ecstasy 
Amidst a transient 
Shimmering surface.

I swallow you like sugar
Tempting and exquisite
Fleeting pleasure quenched 
You rot my insides out
As I plead for more.
