in our minds
our thoughts shivering
under the wet blankets
of devastatingly languid

lingers in my dream
mirroring the madness
of illusion;
rarely realizing reality;
I am awake after all.

Languid Love and Lovers

    sophistry blends with artistry
       woos the languid lover

    afterward, ‘pon reentry
        devilish charms uncovered

The Watcher

Languid eyes surf the horizon     

Bites hot the suntanned light

Drowning the parched azure ocean

Beyond the withered shore

Our Oak In Autumn

I left my languid thoughts cloaked in leaves
dreaming of you 'neath our oak tree.

Ventriloquially

Voices filling my mind
vailed beneath languid lips,
voraciously needing
valerian release.
Vain are my attempts to
vocalize her desire.

Lazy Summer

Wildflowers in the meadow
The lark up in the sky
The days are long and languid
The land is warm and dry
The lazy days of summer
Just pass you slowly by

Breath

MY LONELY LANGUID LOVE
MY SWEET SORROW
KEEP ME WARM
INSIDE THE CAGE
TELL ME NOT TO FEAR
HOLD ON TO MY EMPTINESS
TAKE ME TO MY LAST.

Stuck

So in saying
That I’m stuck
Is it my life
Run amuck
Or is it deeper
Something languid
Like a sleeper
Could I be heard
Blasting sounds
And just one word

Castle Walls

Full moon approaches Showing its languid powers On the land tonight Lighting the eerie castle Casting shadows off the walls

Tiffany

IN THE QUIET AIR
IT LINGERS
LANGUID AND LONELY
HOVERING ABOVE ALL
A WHISPER
A SUBTLE STIRRING
I AM BECOMING
WISPY
WAITING
SUSPENDED IN TIME
A MEMORY AWAY.

L

love lays...
liquid lunar light
licking lips, lobes, languid limbs
lovemaking, loosening linens
loving looks
leisurely liaison
lingering, lyrical lovesong
love's lullaby

Sophomore

These lines are made of languid expression,
With soothing rhythm and enticing seduction
(But I am held steadfast by a Fool's progression,
And I am the Goods of a Fool's production)

A Seasoned Fisherman

A nonchalant twist of an age 
freckled wrist
The cast finished in the stance 
of an archer
A long languid shimmering line 
slowly slips
Arcs, hovers then drops on the 
water

Power Your Voice

Everyone is deaf until you speak out loud,
Faint voice extinguishes in the chaos of the crowd,
Languid breeze is mostly ignored,
Unless it turns out into the tide to rattle the shore!

Tea Time




lazy, languid Spring afternoon
meditate with fragrant herb tea
nature entertains while I sip
orioles liquid, whistling tune
perched on birdbath shaking their wings

The Honey Thief

THICK AND SWEET
LIKE HONEY
YOUR LOVE
DRIPPED UPON ME
COVERED ME
LIKE A NEW SKIN
IMMOBILIZED
I AM ABSORBED
INTO THE WARM AMBER
STICKING LANGUID
IN MY PORES
TO WAIT
FOR MY FAITHFUL BEEKEEPER.

Sloth

Sloth

Languid apathy - idle gifts
Hollow perfume of impotence
Hoards overstuffed bags of blessings 
Walks by fallen stars - indolence

Hurt Prowls Down This Loss

Heartbreak’s hollow hold has hardened.

Piercing past pools pain has pardoned.  

Dying dreams drift on dire descents.

Lost in the loneliness, languid love’s lament.
