("First Light", 2006, original oil)
Dance and Sing
Dance and sing
Hand in hand, cheek to cheek
Playfully swaying, chanting, drumming
To a beat
That rises and falls
Moving like a torch
From soul to soul
Igniting the light
That burns within
And spreads without
Each beat, each word arising
In spontaneity
Draws us out
Each in our own way and time
Draws us out
With infectious joy
To simply dance and sing

She loved him like no other
Feelings pure and intense
Sending shivers of wonder
Ardor came to her defense
She wore a smile with him
Sensing his gentle warmth
Holding each other on a whim
With kindness that performs
She felt like she was floating
Soft feelings she could express
On him she was always doting
For him, she wished to impress
She often whispered enchantment
Sweet kindness that fulfilled
It felt just like she was dancing
Romance like this simply thrilled
She reached deep into her heart
And felt the fluttering there
Nothing could tear them apart
Her spirit sent up her prayer
She knew love like this survives
All the best and worst in life
Together, two hearts that compromise
To overcome all that brings strife
She fluttered her colored wings
Against his touch that would magnify
The sweetness of a love that brings
Joys as uninhibited as a butterfly

Uninhibited, I look within
And see what thoughts are freely brought
My introspection warrants new delight.
And unreservedly explores my hopes.
While, past mistakes and tragedies condemn,
The future with all newness shining –
Radiates. Redeems. Enriches.
Murmurings and ridicules have fled.
Alone, I walked unto that golden door.
And there you were to comfort every pain.
Thus, you and God together took the reigns.
First God, who made salvations greatest plan
Then you, who introduced my heart to love,
You, who walks always beside me on this land,
You who lifted up my weary heart,
Yes, you, who with me honors God along our way.
My husband, your soul is forever bound to me.
We two: uplifting, healing, growing, and kneeling.
Honest, caring, sharing, living…
Uninhibited, together…you and me –

stiletto heels on banana peels
candle spice on frozen ice
on a whim trails trim
whipped ice on cherry slice
candy peices on dream leases

My heart is open and my lips are sealed
My voice is silenced but the words need not be spoken
You know my every thought
You know my soul
You reach for me
Gentle are your strong hands that pull me in closer
I feel your breath warm upon my neck
My heart melts into yours as your arms embrace me
Soft are your fingertips as they gently caress my cheek
Sweet is the taste of your tender kiss
I am yours completely and yours I will remain
Nothing held back
All is surrendered
Given to you in trust
I am yours and yet I am free
Free to love unconditionally
I am captive
Captive to the magic that surrounds us
But I am not bound
All of me given to all of you
I am uninhibited

Shall we travel on a train cross country,
or fly to Paris...
or just fly...
Let us go to South Beach, and use the
wet sand as an abrasive, leaving
silhouettes only washed away by the
sea's fury.
Bruise me as you pump passion into
my veins while I grant total submission
to your freakish fantasies...
erotica...
our romance...
because I love you.
