Short Senses Reel Poems

Ah the smell of coffee in a paper cup
Like a vision of heaven with both eyes shut
The overwhelming joy
Like your first kiss as a boy
Your senses reel and it bonks your coconut...

Hesitant feet on uncertain ground.
A hesitant heart making no sound.
Daring to beat too hard and too fast.
Daring to dream and pray love will last.

Butterfly tingles, senses reel:
Dare I tell him how I feel?

Eyes veiled with longing;
An empty hand grasps ~
For a chance at tomorrow
And his love to last....

Into the realm of dread I roam, 
where shadows loom as spirits   
                 groan.
The air is thick with deathly    
                  doom,
and eerie whispers fill the room.

My senses reel, 
my heart beats fast,
as ghosts of the past reveal  
               their past.
I fear the worst, 
yet still I go,
into the realm below....

I took a drive 
To clear my mind
To the mountains 
Left the world behind 
Air so fresh 
Skies so blue
Troubling thoughts
Only of you
A selfish soul
A wandering eye
Any skirt would do
Don’t ask me why
Sitting on this mountain
How free I feel 
From regrets or mercy
My senses reel
As darkness looms
The moon appears
A blanket of stars
Deletes my fears 
...

Froth
spilling
from large mugs
brimming with chilled
Bavarian beer.
Spiced delicacies tempt.
The aroma of grilled meat
pervades the night as senses reel.
Waitresses in traditional dress
serve folks to the sound of music and song.

Cielle's blowing kisses land softly on my cheek.
All my senses reel. Both my knees grow weak.
She smiles and laughs to send Her Joy my way
with airy kisses, 
each adorned,
a fresh Lilac bouquet.

Cielle's skies are Bright and Gay,
Her smiles outshine our Sun's best day.
Her voice is Melody, Loveliness, Light.
When Cielle breathes, 
Beauty sings, 
and all the world is right....
