as I witness gravity
tanned porcelain viewed
with gentle strokes I caress
her jet black mane captures me

to help him build my bedroom shelf.

Contemplating on the task, long requested
Wondering how to mask, my biases of the role
Trying hard to stay focused and deliver the expected...

He's all done 
unwrapping
his requested gift 
from Santa
and his face 
explodes with bliss!
Shrieks and jumps
for joy ensues
He's on happy child!

Love in Helvetia?
A show of hands requested here.
Small beer to ask...

A beer for those responding,
And three cheers for the great healer, love,
In mountains far away.

In a bar room they boldly contested
Though both were quite fully breasted
On the wall who’d pee higher
The dame or her squire
He lost when "no hands" was requested

Drunk I am.  
Desireous too.
A simple response
To the sight of you.

Because there is nothing else....

Wants tattoo with my name; he’s no flirt
Alb requested a rose
Tattoo inked - a red nose

As comforted by, Autumn eve
With it, approaching
Choice grim hansom requested of
The sombre-inclined.

Aptly quaint, to be enclosed
And snuck away in
Misty-glassed, puce velvet-hung, down
Dim pasts that does wind....

I've told you every time
But I guess I didn't give you the answer you wanted
So yet you still ask hoping to get your requested reply
I've told you every time I've taken this survey
I did not lie!...

Fruit laden circle cake
  filled with nuts and jellies
    full of flavor and spice
       fantastic with eggnog
    frequently requested
  for family and friends
fine finish by the fire.

Contemplating eventide
Requested a longed desire
Resting in heart chamber side
Provoking aloud suspire
Burning as a wroth wildfire

Something fresh to get by...
old fades into the night,
the ticking of the clock,
the passing of a phase.
Same wine bitter -
new label requested,
old pills gone - stronger needed.
More, more, more -
new, newer, newest.....
Goodbye old....

watch you heart at the cross road
because there's no holding back
and there getting the war

the war they have requested
and to win i'm going to need your soul
to win this war outside the light

the light blind you to more than it revels...

Savoring spiritual symposiums
Guides genius gifted giving
Relinquish requested results relying
Upon universal understanding
Willingly washes whimpering woes
Developing divine direct doing dispositions
Lighting love lamps
Zinging Zen zephyrs......

Birds swim in soapy lily water
Against the currents of time
Fish fly on citrus scented air
Watching centuries pass them by
