Any vibration
Any history

Any sweetens this earth got to offer

'Tis as clear as a cloudless sunny calm day
thereof Spring that in I will resist not
your love which sweetens more than bees honey per se.
Good-fellows, let she know you've not forgot....

Rose
fragrance
sweetens air
birds chorusing
sun lit dappled glade
gold edged clouds overhead

Profuse floribundas
white petals tipped pink
wild columbine
creep tendrils
abloom 
tree

The liquor of poetry is sweet...
Donates taste to life,
moves the ideas,
sweetens the mind...
Kiss us ardently,
offer us love,
exults our existence...
Savour it,
with constancy...!
It benefits the soul... !...

grapes still clutch
the vine
along the backyard fence

like clusters of birds
harvesting leftovers
from a picnic

their juice sweetens
like wine
as the nights cool

just enough left
to pool
and intoxicate...

Love
     sparks
     passion

     Love
     disarms
     hate

     Love
     sweetens
     sugar

     Love
     creates
     warmth

     Woman
     supplies
     strength

     female
     provides
     randiness...

My mum just made me a pancake,
So very round and flat,
I put ice-cream and honey on,
Then ate it where I sat.
The taste is quite enormous,
It sweetens all your mouth,
Mum asked, " Where's the pancake gone? "
I said, "I think it headed south."...

Slow growing inside
This beast feeds on
That which sweetens
Days turning bitter
Hope knows of maybe
What can see no end
Soon fades to empty
Life lived as today
Fear in any thought
Past is catching up
With every tomorrow
Down without weight...

The night is young,
Singing romance on its tongue,
As the fire burns in the nights' long,
Bonding true love with no wrong,

I looked deep into her eyes,
Mesmerized by the very chill of ice,
As silence draws near hearts of true lies,
Her lips sweetens mine with love's spice...

a pastel evening

sweetens the chocolate tundra...

a three flavored sky


the sun melts away

into sweet dreams of the night...

earth sleeps satisfied

I never knew
 
my world could be
 
so full of
 
Love
 
Until you came into
 
my life,
 
my sweet girls
 
It’s as if my heart
 
had a space
 
that I didn’t even know
 
was there
 
waiting to be filled
 
Now your laughter
 
brightens my
 
soul
 
Your smile
 
sweetens my
 
day
 
And your heart
 
completes
 
mine....

the sea for me,
it's a  salty flood
that sweetens my vision...
the sun is an eruption
of heat that makes
dawn the fresh morning
of my life...
heaven is a vastness
in blue that colors me
of enthusiasm...and your
body is the universe
in which safe abide,
where I grow and
I fruit mine
perpetuity...!...

The salt of the seas
sacred in nature...
the salt spice of life
that sweetens our existence...
Albumin, salt of tears
that we cry with blissfulness or sadness...
the salt of the earth
that is offered to the world
to sprout everything, and can not
be tasteless
(thus proclaims gospel)
cheers to salt
of redemption...!...

early sunrise
sugarcoats the morning mood
masking last night's news
in a charade of cheer
melting frozen, salty tears 


sun's antidote
sweetens my attitude
I must embrace 
new beginnings, and rub salt
into wounds of yesterday
