Nothing but people swooning

    scintillating as the seas,
dappled with the chemistry

long swooning shadows
         creaking north on brittle days…

Sipping on spiced tea

Pomegranates explode on

The tongue. Partner asks,

New tea? Your eyes are swooning... 

I nod twice and lick my lips....

lanky silhouettes                                                    
in the early morning sun :                                      
swooning bamboo trees...

My foe, shivering
I drew my sword, glistening
Swooning dead away, he, hushed...
Over to him, ran
I, swashbuckling... Arising
he, screaming madly... Deaf, I...

Prancing purple polliwogs playing prissily
Querying querulous quail quite quietly
Reviving romantic roosters respectfully
Sassy swooning swans sighted saucily
Tempting tenuous trickster trout tastefully...

Alas I write these words to thee
My lost and lonely soul
Dried tears for days I cried
It’s you whom makes me whole

Ink on paper cuts like glass
Cold hands quiver on skin
How I miss summers’ of past
Swooning under moonlit rays...

Black hair swooning, 
Red lips, fair skin seducing
Your attentions
And your love
Deadly
Lingering
Like a shadow
Yet all I see
Is a ghost masquerading
In a false shell of beauty
“Eternally mine” she whispers 
But only in death
Am I eternally yours....

"Gypsy's Creak"

Her hair sways
Like a gypsy’s hips in summer
Young, seasoned, and ripe
Was the frame of her smile
Voice knocking upon
The fences of freedom
Swooning men of her choice
Before the suave, sleek edges
Fashioning the finesse that is
This dactylic wonderland...

Evoke my 
Emotions
Make it real
Make me feel

Romance me
With advances
Make me care
Make me swear

Grab a hold of me
Swooning
Make me weak
Make me break

Tactful deceptions
Whispered
Make me forget
Make me regret

Wake me come
Morning
Make me go
Let me go...

At 3 o'clock on a Sunday afternoon
In the month of June Mr. Cartoon 
was heard singing along attune 
At the neighborhood saloon 
swooning to a swinging bassoon
harmonizing along with the platoon 
from Camp Lejeune 
all day and all night they crooned 
first under the sun and then the moon....

There is no need for thermal underwear
Passion so hot keeps me warm in your arms
I feel like a rainbow with every touch
If it is love or lust matters not I must
Have my chocolate kiss and caramel spooning
Making me such a silly bird swooning
So deep in your space we are one
Running in place to meet the sun...

I'm in love with Paul McCartney
My dream, for him to marry me
He'll sing to me songs like Hey Jude
While we dance 'round the house in the nude!

I know this is just wrong. LOL. I was thinking of all those swooning girls!

I bleed white
I am feared
hating each sight 
behaving wierd.

skeptical to everything
reluctant to each
like a lone king
who to everyone beseech

Trembling lips 
and numb fingers
sweating forhead sips,
mind's sap and lingers.

often swooning around
and hiding behind
can be seen dead on ground
I am success hard to find....

like the feel of wood swooning to seas touch
the scrape of knife on plate
slow mo clouds on breeze unsure
hushing trees
gargled chuckles of seagull pass
acetically addictive
glass alps projectile vomit
from misunderstood sand
sea murmurs of deeps untook
plastic bag schooners
seaweed popping pimples
and tears
i remember the tears...

Swallow the melodies
of things unknown.
this swooning depth,
the wonder of you
on every face
love refuses amnesia.
 so silent beside me,
so patient, 
 Are you always this silent love?
long as you gather me
into the crook of your arm 
when I draw near
and our souls sing
like crickets on a sultry
summers night whenever
you  draw near....

I’d orbid any suns with you,
or earths.

Together casting shadows,
Proclaiming insignificance
of light or night or day or
time.

Silently swooning weightless,
airless.

Compositions of magnificence
crashing through stars
and holes of darkness.
Big, bold balls of deafness
with graves of blazing fire.

Nautical pilots of our sky
orbiting each other....

Like ballerinas airdropped from on high, 
Snowflakes pirouette to damask the air, 
Tutued geometries dimpling the sky, 
Veil our stinging eyes with arabesque fair. 
Downy fields we walk, where aureoles tide, 
And white breaths upon your face softly flare. 
As my swooning kiss to your frail smile dips, 
A wayward prism alights upon your lips....

Swooning…somnambulating apple hunt,
sweet and sour scenes of climbable trees.
Dreaming…swinging, branches confront.
Palm filling, chewing…night’s day to seize.

Scent of white or red flesh in Autumn, squeeze
delicately its outer dress of green, yellow, red.
Gobbling to bones…cores surrounded by bees.
Juice runs down my chin as I wake up in bed.

Soaring into the shelter of loving arms
Swinging from hilt of protective gendarme
Swooning in the clutches of ingratiaging charm
Succored by incubating touches so warm
Shielded by your barelled chest from pending harm
Soothed by your enticing, enrapturing smarm
Serenading smile; pulsating lips to your kisses conform
Swivelled contours my erotic impulses inform...

Welcoming summer
By Michelle Morris
21/05/2023

I saw a butterfly flit 
Across the garden
The sun streamed down
Welcoming summer

The verdant grass
Flowers blooming 
Blue, blue sky
And ocean swooning

Butterfly hope
Garden grace
Heaven smiles
On our blessed space

Love and light
Bees and trees
May our humanity
Create global freedom

‘ ‘’’’’’’’’      ‘    ‘


In the middle of honeyed cuddling

He whispered a girl’s name while swooning

Through excuses he denied

A final “goodbye” I chimed

While stars set course for true love waiting
