Words have meaning to impart, When "she reassured me with an unfamiliar line" I knew that soon our hearts would part As words show the heart's incline Sometimes you have to read between the lines To discern what's being said Then you'll see the sign and the deceit you're being fed As the...

Beauty of December Cause weather is calm and cool When good friends remember, About vinyl from the spool. Joys of Santas’s goodies When we were small back then, Mother and her cookies Six men wiser than a pen.

A Real Connection Your thoughts are my beacon guiding me safely through this journey to the wanting caverns of your mind.

Love Unfamiliar How do you know when a man really feels love for you? When you have never experienced love or intimacy. All that she knows is physical touch and sexual play to relay how she feels what she truly sees. I do know this! I don't want to lose him or make him think that sex...

Having wandered all the wrong places Where love and life don't feel at ease, He was muzzled by his own solitude Finding comfort in lonesome universe. It took a while, but soon he realized When pointing to a star in distant sky Beauty of the cosmic hues multiplies Huddled together with lover's eyes.
