HE KISSED LIFE INTO HER

 

He kissed life into her,

Like a prince of old

Dispelling everlasting slumber

In a Fairy story often told

When Sleeping Beauty

Woke from her trance

To gaze into the eyes of love

And then forever dance

SOFT KISSES, PLANTED

Soft kisses, planted

Like whispers

On expectant lips

Then a smile of coyness

And a blush

The hue of Rose Hips

YOUR SERPENT HIPS

 

Your serpent hips

And slender limbs

The glow and lustre

On your skin

In the half light

Of the afterglow

Beyond the bliss

And read the smile

On each other’s lips

HOW COULD SHE BE REAL?

 

Is she not a mirage?

Born in my arid heart

To confuse my senses

Conjured from my dreams

To give false hope

This wild imagining

Is so cruelly meant

For someone so unworthy

How could she be real?


I FINALLY FOUND THE ONE

 

I finally found the one

The one for whom I’d yearned

And everything was going well

Until my fortunes turned

When the joy became sorrow

And I suddenly got burned

A LOVE SO STRONG

 

A love so strong

With depth and tone

Shared by two souls,

Kindred spirits of the heart

Enough love to last

Three lifetimes

So why would such a love,

Such loving feelings,

Not only fade,

But turn to retched hate

YOU WERE MY ONE AND ONLY # 2

 

You were my one and only

You were the sun in my sky

Now light has been banished

And I must in the darkness cry
