I meander along
drifting like a ribbon,
curling in the breeze,
bending like a river
sinuous with the flow
swing to the beat
swaying left and right
meandering onward
sashaying
rambling
winding
curling
humming
zigzag
zinging
singing
along
I go
um

Discombobulation
Interrupts my concentration
In the darkest corner of my mind
It's sinuous coils unwind
And because of it's intrusion
I'm caught up in confusion
My thoughts become so scattered
And the thing that really mattered
The track that I was following
The snake is busy swallowing
I wish I could combobulate
And concentrate to meditate

sinuous seaside sand
softly shifts smooth stones
seaweeds stinky sigh
winsome waves woven
wearing wondrous weave
westerly wind whistles
sunlit sparkling stars
seashore serenades sunshine
sopranos singing
driftwood’s dozing dreams
distant diamond disappears
deep dusky day dies

Your face
is a love song
of exquisite and matchless appeal
Your eyes
a duet of violin and cello
sonorous, deep
Your hair
an orchestra of euphonious instruments
playing in cohesive harmony
Your smile
a fantasia
of unearthly delight
Your teeth
a legato line of 32nd notes
in a concerto played to perfection
Your hands
a conductor’s baton
emoting wordlessly
Your voice
a rhapsody
of supernal joy
Your heart
a sumptuous lyric
a poetic paragon
Your soul
a sacred oratorio
set apart and holy
You are a sinuous melody
I can’t get out of my head
…nor will I ever wish to

sinuous and slow
old summertime path home
ripe with memories
