Touch of Love

It was just past yesterday,
When the waves hit the rock.
As I took a sniff off the bay,
I watched as they landed on the dock.

My mind wondered back to the time,
When my love came down to town.
I could but notice the dime,
Of a love borne of fair crown.

They say love comes and goes in a moon,
But this is not what will fade at all.
I watched her as she slept till noon,
The soles of her feet touching mine to call.

The weight of her head felt as light as feather.
Her fair face was covered with rays of sun.
My hunger for her frame was not the weather.
Not anyone would reach the dame for fun,

Her light not dimmed for any reason whatsoever.
On her glittering face, I gazed upon all night,
My face breaking into smiles, as I drifted over.
Even when the stars are not right,

This love will forever be at last.
What to learn from that which keeps you sane.
The crave for her smooth skin, on my lips past,
My heart beat loud, I could hear the drum wane.

I laughed softly knowing she could hear it.
O love, what have you done to me?
To have this feeling for one person to fit,
Even in your deepest sleep will they be.

When awake, they consume your every moment.
I could hear my hands shaking to the bone,
As I raised them to anticipate her comment.
Gently tapping, she woke, her beauty rest done. 

She turned large eyes over to mine,
My heart was churning up inside.
I took her dainty hands up in mine,
Kissed them with the love I felt inside.

O how sweet they felt on my mouth.
She had a crooked smile on her face with love.
That peace of knowing that it would mount.
Loving someone, having them return that love;

Never was there a word that could describe,
This feeling of ethereal pleasure of desire,
Coursing through my body as a whole tribe;
Knowing I wasn't alone in this ring of fire.

I was jolted back from my daydream,
As I felt the cold rush of water from the ocean.
I smiled and screeched out a scream;
I can't wait for her to be my forever emotion.

Fun At Sea

Two lovers frolicking at sea blend,
Without any fear or gear to fend.
Icy waves tossed them round,
Teens with cams fun abound,
Flying fish rising fleet on a bend;

They were both conscious, enough to send,
Love abandoned, hands suddenly rend,
They turned back with a scream,
And saw teens faces gleam;
It was just a prank by one to trend.

Broken Again

It all came thundering down
Like the quake of a fall
Breaks someone ready to drown
Tears streaming on the wall

Not trying to hold back 
No play around the field
The pain felt like a lack
A never ending shield 

To block the future
Far away from the last
The void of past nature
Of life moving so fast

Never to be seen to dock
The fresh wounds healing
Only to come back to mock
The sanity of the feeling

As new as it was old 
The folly of plain trust
To know the story foretold 
The never ending burst

Taunting once more
Again around the corner
All against the pore
Hoping for a new burner

Never Forgotten

Sometimes they wondered at her beauty and where it came from.
Was it from this world's reality or just a figment of some?
Her movement alone, turned heads wherever she went.
She had touched so many lives with her ways and meant.

The strength in which she worked, was without a doubt fascinating.
It came from her innermost locked up self, of scintillating.
Carrying her places afar off, where none ever knew existed;
Where she was known for the ways her strength persisted.

She brought out others first before seeing to her needs.
Making sure all came out right without any form of deeds.
Her love for her family once was seen as peculiar in the fold.
Which made her stronger for every man put together in the bold; 

Knowing fully well, one day would come from the wind of prime,
Where she would look at them forever, till the dawn of time.

Supernova

A still figure captured by night
Silhouette of a lady shone bright
Embracing sweet warmth of slightly dark skies
Rattled by dreams where which silence lies

Then her smile fades as though it was nothing
Her features formed into something
There goes a smile that caused commotion
And rebels in tumultuous emotion

There she stood in a moon daze
Reflection of it all came ablaze
Stars scattered through its surface
Supernova illuminated beauty was her face

Drowning Nation

In the wake of the moment, they toiled and wept 
The sun to tone, their heels were bruised
They tried to gaze, the black night lurked
They drowned in blood, as the water swept

Their hunger ran wild, the raid went rogue
They traded in vain, for loss each day
They stretched too thin, to snap back up
They saw the lies, the doubts were there

The state so full, they emptied it all
They saw the loom, the dark rain fell
They cursed and yelled, as promise was swayed 
They edged off pain, with faith and strength

They hoped and worked, their fight for power
The thorn of justice, not to lose again
Depression weighed in, springing in doom
The wind spewed fierce, upon the raging cloud

The bell of fate, dwelling afar off
The danger of kill, in the way of travel
The fear of men, to gain without work
The self in greed, was all within

The wonder of years, spent on the clock
The bitter rage block, of flight to safe
Upon tough call, to dwell and rise
As though there was, a bright white star

Which waited upon, their every step
The shriveled heart bled, only to wash away
On that day, which never failed to cease
The one fine hero, to guide back the light

Birth

Gloved hands deep in soil,
       Searching to uproot new seed
              Birth to life to death.

Crushed

Crushed to pieces it makes me feel
That my heart rose only to peel
When a love so full is still
Misery swallows up its thrill

Falling deep in dark ocean
Feels like drowning in motion
Hands reaching out as in a dream 
A single tear goes down the stream

Spoken words concealed in blue
In sea rays of moon and dew
Crying comes in light of doom
Chances given for no room

Faced with so much to relieve
Reeled in once again in grieve 
Clenched desire coming through 
Suppressed notion of being true

With no place for real delight
Lingering doubts then comes to light
Knowing how all will be rushed
As I end up whole and crushed

Aisha - Beautiful Soul

Awesome qualities are deemed refined 
In a friend no one else has yet defined
Seemingly precious cannot be erased
Hereunto from that which she is based 
An echo of a beautiful soul is raised

Beseeching wholely toward safe love
Everyone in search of its haven cove
Angel of truth will thou find indeed
Understanding ways of real need
Telling stories only of that required to divulge 
In the arms of those present to indulge 
Full of life emanating hope and laughter 
Unending even in days of banter
Lies the golden heart in a lighter

Soft spoken in times of disparity 
Obligated to quell various forms of partiality 
Unsolicited advice quenched from lips
Liaison sails her away from sinking ships

Scented Leaves

Scented Leaves were seen spewed all over
A Lady decided to hover
Which made her nose twitch 
Snorting in high pitch
They flew toward her face to cover
