EYES
OF GOLD
To love you is to feel brazen and bold,
Looking into eyes of gold.
The blooms of spring, the birds do sing.
Singing their wondrous songs of love.
For like a tiger stalking its prey, ever knowing that someday love will hold you eyes of gold, through strains of a melody
from times of old.
On through eternity they will shine, never the fear
of getting lost in time.
Eyes of gold I long to feel the touch of
your hand, the warmth of your kiss.
A longing of tomorrow not quite today,
loving you as I do it will not fade away.
Passion
The feelings on your skin.
The skies color ever changing.
From pink to red, a promise of passion.
Dark is the fantasy.
Dark is the love.
The feelings of longing are akin to pain.
The sad part is that only a few find what
they are looking for.
To hold a beautiful child is to feel love.
To hold your lover is to feel love.
A pink love and a red love.
So, when you see the man of your dreams,
smile a red smile.
When you hold your baby for the first time,
smile a pink smile.
To look at love this way really
is no mystery at all.
STORM
I hear the thunder, the clouds
crowd in the storm, the storm is about to begin.
I watch the mountains the
trees bend like humans dancing around a fire.
The lightning brings into
starkness the dark seeded clouds.
I see it in contrast its
standing alone the old oak tree on a knoll.
How long had you been there old
one?
How much have you seen down thru
time?
Your horizon is a far as most
can see.
Scaling, reaching the heavens is
your reason for being.
It happens so fast not a moment
to lose.
The old tree split in two.
I mourn for the death of such an
old thing.
HEART
How tormented my heart has become.
Shielding emotions that will make me undone.
I blend into my surroundings quickly, quietly.
For no one can see how my heart
is leading me.
Pain, pride, hurt, and hate, reside in a heart that I can't escape!
Love, laughter, closeness, and excitement why can't I find you!
Heart of mine let me be,
someone of consequence, someone with dreams.
Heart of mine let me see.
Someone of love only for me.
Heart of mine let me hear.
Sweet whispers of a lover so dear.
Heart of mine let me touch.
A lover, a friend, a solid being.
Heart of mine beat softly tonight.
I have found love and its given me such wonderful delight.
MOUNTAIN
CROSSROADS
The road I walk is not the same as I
walked with another name.
I have a new life now ever changing ever remembering as a child before
the crossroads the mountain trail heading home. I can smell the cornbread baking the
family’s laughter in my mind.
Momma singing daddy smiling I wish for a simpler time.
I walk to the mountain crossroads
the leaves falling like tears of a child.
Mommas calling you have got to come home
it’s getting late she is standing
by the old wooden gate.
The crossroad ever beckoned my heart ever burned. Its simple to leave impossible to
return. I will walk through the
life I have made always searching for a way back to those special days.
Like the mountain streams ever
flowing I pray that my mind will always be going back to those memories of so long ago.
Sweet smelling grass at my feet, or
the old wooden schoolhouse, and my own special seat. The rusty old bucket I
played with as a child on my throne in my kingdom. Waiting for my daddy to come home from the mines. Seeing his smile etched in time.
He would bring home toys so we could play.
We couldn’t sleep waiting
for the new day.
Momma stayed home and
waited for he never strayed from
the Mountain Crossroads
BURN
He touched my lips softly.
Made my heart yearn.
Was he real?
He made my body burn!
Lovely eyes soft like blue skies.
Hands as strong as titanium bands.
Arms as mighty as anvils strong.
Legs of chiseled oak can walk no wrong.
My beloved husband we love like no other.
We laugh and have fun together.
I just want a life with you, good times and bad.
Loving you there is nothing else to be had.
Times Measurement
The colors ever changing.
Earth ever turning.
Time is a funny thing,
nothing to do everything to change.
What time there is in our short lives
needs to be savored and lived as divine.
Only a fool would rail at things
time has wrought.
Time is a distance between here and there.
Between up and down.
Between nowhere and somewhere.
A measurement of space, of travel,
of time spent with precious ones.
Savor time as a rich meal, one that has to be enjoyed while hot and fresh.
Time is not best served cold.
Time
Jagged, torn, broken.
Lightning has destroyed you old Oak.
Faded, rusted, collapsed.
Metal buildings that have snapped.
Time, loss, pain.
A feeling, a tear as we stand in the rain.
Ageless, fanciful, love.
Laughter of innocent children, Future unfolding.
CANCER
I hate you,
I loathe everything about you.
If you were a person, you would be
despised by everyone.
You are a plague upon all mankind.
Death wrapped up in sickness,
pain, and weeping.
When you have CANCER you are a warrior, a fighter, with strength of character.
Cancer if you were a human you would be hunted down for the serial killer you are.
You are a pestilence, a leaching good for nothing life sucker.
I HATE YOU, I HATE YOU.
You may kill us fast, or either slow,
but you will not defeat our heart, spirit, or soul.
Cancer I hate YOU!
I will fight you, I will be a warrior, I will keep hope close to my heart.
I HATE YOU CANCER.
KNIGHTS
Where are the knights of yesteryear?
Traveling in mail and swords at their sides?
Always willing to help a damsel in distress.
Always striving to do the honorable thing.
Never hurting the innocent, protecting them at all costs.
Loving one woman forever taking her to the heights of truth, light, and love.
Where are you my knight.
Gone for hundreds of years lost in the sands of time.
I long for genteel times, times of castles, and dresses divine.
I can see in my minds eye when I was a child wishing for a knight to rescue me from pain and heartache.
Someone of happiness, and love.
We all grow up and they are all gone.
EVERAFTER
They met,
They loved,
They vowed to the heavens above,
Love would keep them?
How many years has it been my love,
since I saw your face and kissed your lips?
Can we measure a love so timeless?
Can I just touch you one more time?
You soared above the war torn land,
you came crashing down lost in times infinite sands!
I looked for you, cried for you, prayed for your return.
You were lost for a time and I found you again.
How my restless heart could mend.
How brief our time together but how much love we shared.
I will never forget you my love and will carry your heart with me as lie down in death, for no one else could replace what we have.
I held the torch and loved no other for you were my life, love, my ever after.
