"The Beauty Of Passion, The Art Of Love!"
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
The arms of love,
Each other entwined,
The beauty of passion
In rapture defined.
The kissing, the touch,
Each soulful embrace,
Expressions of pleasure
Written on each face.
As the taste of honey,
Drips from their lips,
In intricate detail
Trembling fingertips,
Trace the contours
Of each other's domain,
As the ultimate builds
To border insane.
Separate entities
Unite in the heat,
As ecstasy engulfs,
The union's complete!

"Love Ship"
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Instead of sailing my ship alone,
Upon a dark and lonely sea,
My deck welcomes him aboard,
To sail this ship with me!

"Haunted"

He haunts me in my dreams.
He haunts each conscious thought.
Although I've never met him,
This seems to matter naught.

"Loose Lips, Sink Ships!"
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Loose lips,
Sink ships.
If a man wants to sail
The seas of love with me,
His lips remain sealed,
So shall our secrets be!

"Listening To Your Heart"
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
If I could only hear the voice,
That goes with the heart others do not see,
It may mean tiddly-squat to others' ears,
But it would mean the world to me!
How can I let him know,
His heart is what shows through,
Each and every time he speaks,
It's his heart I listen to?
Just because his actions,
May be seen by most,
As crude or expressionless,
I'm still so glad to boast,
That I would stand up for him,
With honour and with pride,
With every fiber of my being,
I would not step aside,
To let others deter me
From the wonder I do feel,
My love is genuine
And will always be surreal!

"My Last Letter..."
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
I come to you once more,
As humbly as I can,
Just to let you know,
I've been your biggest fan.
If I've brought you pain,
Then I'm sorry truly deep,
This was never my intention,
To cause your heart to weep.
All that I have given,
Of my art, my writing, too,
I have made provisions,
To show my trust in you.
I'll be around for sure,
Though I'll be viewing from afar,
Smiling down upon Elftown
And you,
As I watch my shining star.
Just to let you know,
As I walk into the light,
What I feel for you,
I will hold on tight.
Please be happy always,
And always trust your heart,
If you're feeling blue,
Look upon my art,
For if and when you do,
May a warmth overtake,
For I'll be smiling at you,
In your dreams or when awake!
I love you!

"Photographs..."
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
I found my self wandering in among some photographs,
When I came across some, but they did not bring me laughs.
I've seen them several times before,
But they had never knocked upon my heart's door.
I usually never click to enlarge, to capture
The essence of the heart, in deep profound stature.
Today was different though, I decided to make the click
In an epitome of despair, my heart skipped a tick.
Disheartened from the sadness, as I looked upon a face,
A face with a smile, forlornness did en grace.
The eyes sought my attention, begged for a closer look.
I looked into the heart, beyond the cover of his book.
An overwhelming sense brought tears to my eyes,
There seemed to be a pleading for me to recognize.
As the tears rolled down my saddened face,
I knew inside this soul, there was a very empty place.
I placed my fingertips upon the cheeks, the tender lips caressed,
How I longed to touch mine to his, my feelings were undressed.
Though a capture of the flesh, a photograph gives
A mere, poor substitute of the soul within that lives.

"I Would Shout My Love ...
... From The Mountains High!"
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
I would shout my love,
If it wouldn't embarrass you,
From the tallest mountain
To penetrate through
To the bottom of the ocean.
Most certainly I'd proclaim, you see,
To the world, the universe.
It would not bother me!
I am not ashamed
To feel the way I do!
My heart is filled with pride,
When I think of you!

♥ "The Flower Of Love" ♥ 
♥ ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ ♥
The Flower Of Love is a rose of red.
It's significance stands, indelible tread.
To a lady, its power, will passion ignite,
The candle of love will thus burn bright.
Given the signal, the color of green,
She'll unveil her feelings, allow them seen.
All that touches her heart, relating to him,
Will burst into bloom over the brim.
The Flower Of Love is a rose of red.
Its clarity unique, never misread.
An exquisite expression of touch, velure,
Exclusively given with intentions so pure.

Only give a red rose, if you mean it!
"♥ Secret L♥ve! ♥"
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
In my heart there lies,
In a soft and caring place
A special devotion, unique,
To a one and only face.
Granted I can't say aloud,
What I feel, know is true,
But there's no one that can
Tell my heart just what to do.
If I must contain what lives,
In the safety of my heart,
No matter what the cost,
My lips shall not impart,
Except to one and only one,
I'll share that which I feel.
No apology is required.
He knows my love, surreal.
It is He that understands,
It is He that sees it all,
Against the Almighty,
My enemies so shall fall.
My heart talks to Him
Each and every day.
He soothes my cares and woes,
Delivers courage as I pray.
He tells me not to worry,
That He will guard my path,
The magic He can work!
Yet, no greater is His wrath.
The Keeper of the truth,
The Commander of the light,
Eyes shall be opened,
Astounded by what's right!
So, although my Secret L♥ve
Will remain hidden from the world,
God will know the time,
When it should be unfurled.
Until I get the signal
For the time of declaration,
My heart will hold and cherish
My love with admiration.

"One More Wish!"
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
If I could have one wish granted unto me,
What do you think my only wish would be?
Would I wish for joy in every day?
Would I wish for worries to all go away?
Would I wish for money to pay all my bills?
Would I wish for warmth to ward off all the chills?
Would I wish for more time to accomplish every task?
Would I wish for to receive all that I might ask?
Would I wish for answers, I've been seeking for so long?
Would I wish for lack of weakness, always to be strong?
Would I wish for youthfulness, never to grow old?
Would I wish that my stories, for each and all get told?
Would I wish for my aches and pains to all go away?
Would I wish for each tomorrow to be a bright, sunny day?
Would I wish for someone to hold me all through the night?
Would I wish for my vision empowered with a much better sight?
All these wishes do seem quite wonderful to me,
But if I had one wish, my only wish would be.
To have the pleasure of your company for just one day,
But then I'd wish for it to last forever and never go away.

"Friendship Efflorescence, a Chrysalis de L’amour"
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
A friendship in love culminates in adulation.
Magnanimous effulgence, dulcet anticipation
For gratuitous ebullitions of innocuous intent,
Ingratiate forgiveness, nescience circumvent.
Narcissism has no place, slake, expatriate.
Foment ambrosial maleficence, amorously inebriate.
Altruistic deference, laden with the truth,
Idiosyncrasies abided, a fortuity, uncouth.
Compassionate understanding, intrinsically profound,
Perpetuate esteem of each, euphorically astound.
Rhapsodize conjointly all thy hopes and dreams,
Subjugate opposition, bring fruition to thy schemes.
Vacuous ambiguity, ostentatiousness spurned,
Acrimony, duplicity, umbrage, all adjourned.
Coquettish propositions, voluptuous rendezvous,
Delectable elation, exalted rapture ensues.

Translated in simpler English...
"Friendship In Bloom, a Cocoon of Love"
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
A friendship in love climaxes in great admiration.
Generous splendor, sweet anticipation
For unwarranted outbursts of harmless intent,
Gain favour of forgiveness, ignorance circumvent.
Self obsession has no place, quench, expatriate.
Instigate delicious mischief, lovingly intoxicate.
Unselfish respect, laden with the truth,
Idiosyncrasies abided, a happening, uncouth.
Compassionate understanding, essentially profound,
Perpetuate esteem of each, extremely pleasantly astound.
Enthuse conjointly all thy hopes and dreams,
Conquer opposition, bring fruition to thy schemes.
Purposeless vagueness, showiness spurned,
Bitterness, deceitfulness, resentment, all adjourned.
Flirtatious propositions, sensually enjoyable rendezvous,
Delectable elation, exalted rapture ensues.

"Love Till Death"
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Each day awakening, hopin' my heart has closed the door,
So this aching pain will hurt, sadden me no more.
As my eyes blink open, my dreams remind me still,
My heart is as defiant, with just as strong a will.
Feeling the scalding words, as they burn into my brain,
But the tune plays on, altering not my heart's refrain.
Seeking so many different ways to cope with this desire,
But cannot seem to squelch, impede the raging fire.
Louder screams the voice of reason, shouting in my head,
What my heart embraces, opposition dare not tread.
Swords forged from cutting words, targeted with mission,
Unrelenting vessels attempt to force submission.
The wounds intensely deep, the river's turning red,
Still there's no surrender, as my heart is slowly bled.
Soon the beat will slow, grow faint and then die,
Haunt the soul that lives, leaving him to ask the why.

"My Valentine Forever"
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Every year about this time, we'd walk down memory lane.
For each year we'd made new ones, but this year is not the same.
Another year's gone by, 'tis true. Soon it will be spring.
This year will be different, though, for I'm missing what you bring.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
The long summer nights, we've cherished every one.
We'd walk. We'd talk by many a setting sun.
Wishful thoughts we'd ponder,
Golden dreams of wonder.
We were living some.
Others, yet, to come.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Christmas joy again we shared, for then we didn't know,
What was coming forth upon us besides the winter snow.
Our new year came in, like so many times before.
We made our resolutions, but this year maybe more.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
We lived our lives in love each day ready to embark.
Perhaps, it's best to relish the light while walking in the dark.
For, if we had known, what was in our path ahead,
We might have lived our lives consumed by the shadow of such dread.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Although alone, now, your love comes from afar,
My Valentine I miss you as I look upon your star.
Our memories warm my heart, ward off any chill.
As your smile I envision, your love is with me still.
Soon I'll be beside you, our eternal love entwine.
Together we shall be, my forever Valentine.

My latest Valentine Poem. I entered it in the Valentine Poetry Competition here, 2006. Happy! Happy! Happy! It was one of the 5 chosen!
"A Beautiful Dream..."
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
There I was in a land so far away,
A land quite different, yet familiar, I'd say.
The stranger I met smiled at me,
A kindness about him I could see.
As we stood on the threshold of his humble abode,
A yearning within me began to implode.
He motioned to me to step inside.
No fear arose, at his request I complied.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
The surroundings were plain in a slight disarray,
My presence felt wanted in a subliminal way.
He fluently spoke in my native tongue.
I devoured his wisdom. To his words I clung.
He beckoned me sit, a warm drink in his hand.
His eyes were entrancing, his wish, my command.
I doubt if he knew, my heart was a flutter,
Or a touch of his hand would melt me like butter.
My voice was lost, though I craved to speak.
My knees were trembling, a true sign of weak.
He gave a quick, life history of him,
Smiled a smile that vanquished all dim.
Then he came close, reached out for my hand,
Asked me to come, but how could I stand?
I allowed his hand to slip into mine,
His clasp was a strong, yet, gentle entwine.
He led me around and showed me his place,
Then he turned, looked, directly in my face.
With his own, trembling hands, he caressed my hair,
Arranged it to suit him and proceeded to stare.
Frozen, but limp, yet boiling within,
My heartbeat drowning out the sound of a pin.
He cradled my face in his sweaty, cool hands.
I knew I was lost to all his demands.
His eyes grew soft, yet filled with desire,
As his lips met mine, already on fire.
Just a light teasing, caressing at first,
Not nearly enough to quench our thirst.
The taste of each other's longing revealed,
Igniting a passion no longer concealed.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Here's where I awoke, I'm sorry to say.
How I'd like to go back and continue, replay.
Dreams can be beautiful, leave us impressed.
Expose what we long for, our desire undressed.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

I submitted this to The Town Herald's Poetry Corner.
Inspired by an actual & totally unexpected dream, that seemed to come out of nowhere in February, 2007. I must say, it blew my mind!!!</center>

"My Beautiful Mother! My Beautiful Valentine!"
My Mother's strife is over now. She is blessed with Holy peace.
The Lord has called her home with Him, thus ending all her hardships, cease.
My blessed Mother, I love and I miss you so.
Your light within my lonely heart will forever glow.
Your life here will be honored, remembered and praised
By so many more than just the young you raised.
You always thought of others first, while you were left with none.
So many took for granted all that you have so gladly done.
Your sorrows are all washed away now. Mom, you will no longer need to weep.
God's love cradles you with gentleness. No more mountains face you steep.
I'll try to walk along your path. My focus will always be
To enter in the House of God, 'til your face I again shall see.
This world is cruel and heartless, Mom. It is filled with the greedy and unkind,
Including some you loved so dear. Oh, Mom, it's hard to stay so far behind.
Your love I've always felt and it always saw me through,
Each and every painful moment I've been subjected to.
I'm standing on this stairway, which I'll do my best to climb,
Because I know what waits for me 'til the end of time.
If I could fly a kite, that would bring me up to you,
I'd be sure to bring you flowers, of all colors, especially pink and blue.
On this Valentine's Day, I will think of you,
For this day is all about those we truly love
And you're the prettiest, brightest flower
In the grandest of all gardens high with God above!
