Rendezvous

Image: We Heart It

Midnight…

As the Moon

rises and the

Stars Align

You come to

me…

Secrets…

We come together

meeting quietly

in the deep

shadows of

the Forest

Towering trees

our canopy

Soft moss our

bed

Our joining is

a Rendezvous of

the Ancients

Fulfilling the

Prophecy told

long ago

Stars fell

Thunder rolled

And

the Promise

is complete.

My Muse

Image: We Heart It

My Muse rides high

during my late night

wanderings.

Working hard to capture the words

fleeting in and out of my

sleep deprived brain…

She occasionally is able

to cobble together enough

words to give back to me

as a poem

I would like to be a writer…

love to be a poet…

My Muse takes my hand…

guides me along that

journey of weaving words

to make sense of my life.

Lazy Shadows

Image: We Heart It

Watching the lazy tracings

of the ceiling fan create

shadows on the hard wood floor

She turned her attention to

a late night footfall on

the metal stairs.

Music

Image: We Heart It

 

I dream in music

When you come to me…

the ancient rhythms…

rhymes…

melodies…

course through you…

And…

in that moment, you

play me…

play my body…

my senses…

like the finest of instruments

well tuned

Instruments created for…

Reserved for…

The masters of song

to only be used when performing

their symphonies of the ages…

finely tuned and elegant…

eloquently strumming…

humming…

plucking…

fingering…

the instrument that is my body…

my soul…

rising and falling…

until the finale…

the crescendo…

leaves us both spent

with the wonder of

Music

Today…I Thought of You

Image: We Heart It

Today…I Thought of You…

The day itself reminded me of you

A clear blue skied crisp Fall day

The kind of day that is you…

Or

The you, you were this time last year

Attentive…

Loving…

Caring…

Making my days and night

Special…

Treating me like a Queen

unlike any other

You made me feel special…

Something I had not felt in

a very long time

Oh…how I long for those days

those days from a year ago

I miss out time together

The light banter…

The sensual exchanges…

I miss You…

I hope she is worth it

POETRY!

Image: We Heart It

Try as I may…

I am constantly

Drawn from my writing…

to Poetry

Reading Poetry…

when I should be

reading other things

Writing Poetry…

(or attempting)

while my book

goes Untouched

Poetry…

Reading it…

Writing it…

has become my

daily simple

Pleasure!

Memories ~

Image: We Heart It

Memories ~

pieces of past

happiness or pain

Frozen in time

sitting there waiting

What happens

to lost memories?

Where do they go?

Who can find them?

Dreams…

the Keepers of memories

good…

Or

bad…

Shared when needed

Or Not

My memories of

you are lost…

Even my dreams

cannot find them

And

My soul mourns.

LOVE

Image: We Heart It

Love has always

ben an illusive

Thing

Never there when

she needed it…

wanted it…

desired…

It chased her when

she least expected it…

Blindsided her over

and over

Never to be real…

True…

That facade…

that mask of the

real thing always

teasing…

Just out of reach

Only to bring her

Deceit…

Heartache…

with every visit

Toying with her life

and

Creating a consummate

cynic where Love was

concerned

Always hoping…

yet…

Never expecting…

Love

Night Frost Haze

Image: We Heart It

Under the cold light

of a Wintery Moon

she strolls through

the woods

Frost falling around her

as she moves gives

the illusion of a blue haze…

A glowing halo surrounding

her long dark hair

Nothing hurried in her

movements

She continues on

her nightly mission

In her wake…

a black cat

weaving in an out of

her footprints

in the snow

Following like a witch’s

Familiar…

he travels along silently

and just as detrmined

Arriving home…

she bends down

removing her overshoes

and

lovingly stokes the cat

Abandoned

Image: We Heart It

Things have not

been as they should

for some time

Feelings on the

Edge…

No anger…

No arguments…

Nothing…

Emotions no longer felt

Like strangers in

the same space

Not speaking…

touching…

OR

acknowledging the other

Being abandoned

does not always

mean someone leaves

Often…

no one leaves

But…

Life itself has been

Abandoned
