RED SUNSET

 

The red sunset is for lovers

Who sigh with lovesick bliss

And in the glow of a blood red sky

The lovers stand and kiss

YOUR EMBRACE IS LIKE A VELVET CLOAK

 

Your embrace is like a velvet cloak

Enveloping me in love

As you speak to my soul

And burn into my heart a perfect love

A KEEP-SAKE

 

A keep-sake

That speaks of love

A handkerchief

Bearing a lipstick kiss

A rose dried and pressed

Within a weighty tome

A missive couched

In terms of love

Or a photograph

Kept beside your heart

SOME PEOPLE SEEK

 

Some people seek

A maelstrom

Or a whirlwind

A breathless passion

Of eternal desire

But for me

I just need to be loved

A PASSIONATE DESIRE

 

A passionate desire,

Made manifest

First in a perfect kiss

Then in a carnal embrace

Entwined with you

In an act of bliss

My love for you

Made complete

YOUR KISS UPON MY MOUTH

 

Your kiss upon my mouth

Your breath against my skin

Your almost palpable touch on my heart

TOWARDS YOU MY LOVE

 

Towards you my love

My heart conveys me

Drawn towards your beauty

And your healing heart

The cherished moments

Of your tender embrace

Sustain me on my journey

Towards your open arms
