TIME TO GROW
A time it was
When the lyre’s lustful lush lyrics
Stirred the silent wind
Out of her slumber,
Stirred in us an awakening,
A call to our stolen sessions
A time
When the sonorous
Singing voice of the harp
Was our soul serenade
As we rode
With the now strong wind,
Revelling in purloined ectasy.
How and when
Did our amorous affair go awry?
As I ponder
In this silent moment
The Mimosa pudica plant
Gently clasps her leaves together, read more »
His Many Fortunes(A love story)
His Many Fortunes
He looked upon her smiling face
When he asked her for her hand
And as she cried her happy tears
She asked what he wished in return
He replied with measured grace,
"The fortune of Ivory in your smile."
Five years later as each was there
Face to face in a celebration of love
She looked into his eyes
And asked what he’d received
He replied as he stroked her hair,
"This fortune of copper ‘neath my hand."
Ten years had passed from the first scene read more »
Sixty Seconds Until the Abyss
Standing up sitting down lying flat upon the ground
A grassy nole or a copper plate
Wired to the switch of fate
Coming in ; faded out ; a loss of focus
Memories being devoured by a sea of Locoust
Green monsters with an apitight for lovers foolish after-thoughts
Glimpes of the past, feramornoes have scarred the heart
Dying sences, pitcures torn, not wishing to morn
The scorn
Seas of blue, egos bruised, a mist a trip into the past
Lovers history
Thirty seconds have passed
Twenty seconds more read more »
It's About Time
I met a deaf person, today.
Yet, he heard my sadness.
For when in tune with another,
the heart beats hollow, and empty.
It echoed my grief, and he did cry…
….and I broke down and cried with him.
Then, a handicapped person came along,
and there were braces on his limbs.
Yet, it was this person
who helped steady me,
helped pick me up, and send me on my way.
I was thankful…and once again, I wept.
Then, surprisingly I met an elderly blind woman.
Who not only saw what happened,
but, understood my plight. read more »
