Short Smelted Poems

Full length frontal flesh pressed into half-awake spouse.
Smoldering and smelted as one Blue Danube strauss.

The bluebirds twitter a blithesome tune of Wintergray.
Warmth of coffee, sweet pastries and a tulip’d bouquet.

Lava oozes from my skin
Or so it seems everything 
Burning from within

Caring not that I'm engulfed 
Moulded like smelted metal
A newer form is fashioned

And like the Phoenix ..................?...

Today this pressure cooker heat takes our wind 
And hands are used as fans to cool our faces.
Cloudless summer skies let UVA's descend

A smelted feeling of being baked alive,
If not for sheltered shade we would not survive.
Twilight brings a respite from Apollo's fire.
As moonbeams dare to fill our hearts with desire.
