Good To Go

Late one star-crossed summer's night
when I'd had more than enough
and only just in case
I was packing all my hard-won stuff
accumulated over more than several years
up to my ears there was indeed a lot of it
squashing jamming squeezing cramming
all in all a quite tight fit
as my entire worldly goods left in a taxi with me
something I

Star-Crossed Cat Love

A domestic Manx, hopes torn stream and tossed
Pines and purrs for a stray cat so very lost
Their souls ache with delight
Through the screen door at night
A true love forbidden at a heartbreaking cost

Star Crossed

The windows to your soul
sold you down the river
at a glance
Who knew a chance meeting
on a cold day would plunge
us both into a trance
There's no coincidences in life
so everything 
is meant to be
Plans brought us together like
eyes on a face but neither
one could see
On the surface we were free
but behind the scenes
we were bound
Together like

Star-crossed at Karaoke

Mobile ring tones at morning light,
disturb the shapes under covers,
the outlined echoes of last night,
two star-crossed microphone lovers,
drawn from opposite ends of town,
yesterday’s pub entertainers,
way on down at the Old Three Crowns,
they met singing Gloria Gaynor, 
ramped and amped with emotion,
to songs that belonged in the haze,
now wake to face their commotion,
the music of separate

       Such deep, impassioned, love
       startles our mortal ways.
       Could we possibly have that
       same eternal love?
       Flowing in our souls and blood,

star-crossed lovers

We’re destined to love and fated to seethe.
But our stars don’t align
Were you somebody who just meant to leave?
If walking away was the correct choice to find a delight
Was I ever part of your everyday thinking?
If not, I should’ve kept things right
I miss your morning kisses running on my cheeks
I miss our evening catfights…
This time,

Holding on in a little wood shack 
Their memories will always remain
Knowing somehow forever is not to be
Warm moments dull the pain
He said, Are we star-crossed lovers? 
She said, No don’t talk that way
He said, Are we star-crossed lovers? 
She said, No don’t talk that way.

Leaving leaves all behind
Or so it was supposed to be
But

Star Crossed Lovers

Before we go to sleep tonight,
I'll remember what we have.

I won't feel sad that you are not here,
Cos we have true romance.

We have it all a love so bright,
Like a diamond in the sky.

Look at the stars from where you are,
We are the bright one on the right,
We'll be together despite the odds, no matter

In a tapestry of night, their fates entwined, 
Two souls aglow, in love's celestial bind. 
He, a comet blazing 'cross the midnight sky, 
She, a meteor, on a parallel course nearby. 

They met in solemn moment, 'neath the lunar gleam, 
Their love, with promised dream. 
Whispers of longing in the night's embrace, 
hearts sparkled with

"From forth the fatal loins of these two foes,
A pair of star cross'd lovers take their life,
Whose misadventur'd piteous overthrows
Doth with their death bury their parents' strife."
— Prologue, Romeo and Juliet


As teens, they were told you’re too young
Time passed and they both were married
Another vowed they were among
Lovers who stole hearts once buried

Time passed and

It happened on a rainy night
As I walked out....
........... and she walked in
I alone possessed the paper
As she retained the only pen
Oh, the poetry we could have written 
And the stories we might create
If she arrived a minute early
Or I departed, a little late

She sought shelter form the weather
As I ran to to catch the

This sparkling girl had an inborn predilection 
for the lilting life’s passionate piquancy.
In the rhapsodic ripples of zephyr 
she floated like a beguiled butterfly
across her seamless sensuous sky called life, 
and on its wings she painted her dreams
like the flowers in the valley of love.

When his magnetic aura spread on her feelings,
and encompassed her to

A Venusian and Martian met one day
But a language barrier stood in their way.
They observed the stars
Between Venus and Mars
Still, they had very little to say.

Both are unique and complex in make
Desiring a love that would make Earth shake.
Though broken at heart
They must stay apart.
There are plenty more options to take.

If only their warring families

After many cold winters, they met again, 
Under the poplar tree on a starry moonlit night.
Though they had planned it over many a time,
It came to fruition after such long lapse of years. 

Once they loved as no lovers could ever
In devotion, never had they faltered, never once failed,
But fate was sadly against this star-crossed
