Heartbeat Dependency
You imagine them whispering in your ears
Through the screen of your computer
You forced me to listen to your heart
Quick and irregular
I'm afraid to uncover my ears
To hear the beating of your heart
I hope it never stops
Otherwise mine starts

From you, I feel a thrilling, gentle glow
From you, I feel a thrilling, gentle glow,
A warmth that's magical and full of grace.
No matter how many winters come and go,
Each moment shared with you, I still embrace.
With you, my heart feels calm and light as air,
In my soul, awakened birds now sing.
And though you're far away, I do not care,
For in

The Night the Truth Stayed Silent
The road was long, the night was cold,
A stranger walked into the town.
His coat was torn, his hat pulled low,
His weary eyes fixed on the ground.
The streets lay still, the lamps burned low,
Behind locked doors, all lay at rest.
But in the bar, the glasses clinked,
As whiskey warmed the sleepless guests.
He stepped inside, the room fell

WINTER THRILLING
Winter chill, a drowsy thrilling,
like day and night are just the same;
Just like a usual nighttime feeling,
beings embark in a drowsing game.
The cloudy mists on the window pane
speak of time so freezing cold;
One could be still and nurse the pain
or paint the sky in shades of gold.
For, winter's

Grace In the Sky
Sizzling on the cerulean skyline
Twilight lingers, eternally singing
Contemplating this must be God’s headline
Lighting the soul with the joy He’s bringing
Twilight lingers, eternally singing
Laughing at the night, tempting glow of moon
Lighting the soul with the joy He’s bringing
Lifting hearts with wonders to make one swoon
Laughing at the night, tempting glow of moon
Melodies rain sighs from the

Thrilling Vibrancy
Written: August 31, 2023
______________________________________________________________
With your feet rooted deep in the earth,
And your mind soaring high into rebirth
Claim your excellence, embrace your worth,
Subsume the duality that governs your mirth.
For it is in acknowledging both light and dark,
True beauty and growth can embark,
The vitality you emit will aid self-acceptance,
A journey toward inner balance and transcendence.

The Thrilling Beyond
Purple mists
and dawn wake up call,
red rooster.
Keen bluebirds
whistle and call for gold sun-
songs of the thrill days.
Fading dreams
waft in fading mist
so lovely.
Scents adrift
along green sidewalks of life
beyond plum shadows.

How Thrilling Was Our Carefree Youth
How thrilling was our carefree youth...
running wild, and ignoring truth?
Nobody ever stopped and asked himself,
" Is this a time to dream or to laugh? "
I did both without throwing round stones
at others and incite a fight of hard blows!
How thrilling was our carefree youth,
plucking a peach off a tree and feeling dilly,
consuming that

Thrilling Filling Chilling Milling
It was exciting and thrilling
To see the stadium filling
Though the day was a’chilling
People around were soon milling
Like pickles in jars sagely dilling
Notice that the Jacks were a’Jilling
Poets in attendance were quilling
Blue jays and cardinals were trilling

The Thrilling In-Between
"The Thrilling In-Between"
Touched
Soft cerebral
warm breath
paints dusky the warm place
whispers across satin skin
laces come undone
on the lost floor fallen
her skin runs like a river
under the velvet of
his beckoning windows
she’s a mystery
as he tastes her
boundaries
between the
districts of

Sliding hands
over a new map
uncovering secrets and

Thrilling Days of Yesteryear
Southern raised in the fifties and sixties,
brought up very strictly and correctly,
prim and proper not gypsies or hippies,
a time children should be seen perfectly,
and not heard, standing tall an erectness,
the thought of free expression tides were hurled,
ideals "political correctness,
free exchange of ideas, not in my world.
Shadows shout on curtains of doubt, hear it
choking out the

The Thrilling Living
The house in the sea
Standing near the hill
Very romantic to see
But mood in high thrill,
Two ones live there
One male other female
Always in great fear
If attacks a crocodile,
This or that way ever
Here many are living
Life, death no matter
If living is thrilling,
The world is all to them
Enjoying life is game
No care for other claim
They
