Rebirth (5)
Upon this time I can turn a blind eye
To enjoy the gifts the storm did bring
Cast them upon the rainbow colored sky
Making sense out of the unreasoning
To soar upon the mighty winds so free
To smell the lavender of the vast fields
To choose to perch in the highest of trees
To leave behind not a trace of myself
Knowing all to soon death will result birth
A circle in time repeating its self
Déjà vu to walk the familiar turf
To hold dear once more the things I have loved
You have kept me alive for all so long
Each beginning I am growing more strong

A sonnet to love.
Within the silence of my heart,
lost verdant spring my vision greet,
though youth and age now leagues apart,
love joyous years still pulsating beat,
forever the smile upon your face,
the blush of love still living there,
full softer than all starlights grace,
once golden tones thy then flaxen hair,
a beauty that Greek Gods did seek,
elegance of form, pure, supreme,
soft as the flush upon your cheek,
with subtle hues lingering supreme
that, callous time may never slay,
as springs dear abiding vision stay.

About this poem:
visual beauty is but transient, but internal beauty is immortal
Resounds My Heart (sonnet)
Resounds my heart with passion
as I gaze deep into your eyes
and we sink onto the cushions
and rapture overtakes our cries
Slowly the earth stops its spinning
drifting off in each others arms
to awake aroused and moaning
with his love my heart he disarms
Whispering sweet nothings to me
that night I will always recall
though the image gets all filmy
this true love will always stand tall
The night we met was my windfall
my heart he now holds in his thrall
as I gaze deep into your eyes
and we sink onto the cushions
and rapture overtakes our cries
Slowly the earth stops its spinning
drifting off in each others arms
to awake aroused and moaning
with his love my heart he disarms
Whispering sweet nothings to me
that night I will always recall
though the image gets all filmy
this true love will always stand tall
The night we met was my windfall
my heart he now holds in his thrall

Post CommentThe Beginning (Part 1)
Words flowing as sweet wine to crystal flute
Lips caressing sweetest fruit from the vine
All sense of conversation seems so moot
Grapes turning into raisins before eyes
Is it the destination where dreams die
A place where clouds form to hold mighty rein
A place where dignity can hold head high
Sometimes victory is not a pleasure
Words no longer needed all has been placed
Silence echoing as if loud thunder
Slowly out of the mist rises the erased
And what was is no longer,nor will be
Like a birth of a new innocent life
Forming union of devil and his wife

Post CommentThe Culling (part 4)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Gently rained the clouds as the years went by
Years turning to centuries past forgotten
Propagating sin allowed not to die
Waiting once more for its time to lay rein
Gentle wind whispering little girls ear
Imagination at play they all say
Soon voices forgotten till time near
Relentless searching not knowing for why
Within the beating heart lays the last blood
Time culled the bloodline almost freeing them
A cloud so ominous soon to lay flood
Dry barren fields begging for watering
Only the best will ferment in my wine
Removing soured fruits from thorny vines

Post CommentThe Hardening (Part 3)
Fields of glory rolling outside my window
Bodies of bronze by suns caressing warmth
One body my body already knows
He takes me to the stars and the heavens
Dreams aspire reaching for the tallest skies
Fields of glory reaching for suns desire
To quench the thirst then reap the crops of lies
Tend the fields walk away empty handed
There's a wolf out amongst the laden sheep
Blood upon hands of proclaimed innocence
Kill them all where the blood has surely seeped
No clean hands remain to the unaware
Jealousy a motive for killing fields
You reap what you sow, your harvest will yield

About this poem:
Writing these poems have been fun. I don't know yet where it will end. I do know bringing these characters alive out into the open is in its self a dance. Thank you for reading and allowing them for a brief time to enter your domain.The Jury (Part 2)
They had prayed for a change to all their gods
Side by side they waited good holding bad
Not knowing which God would answer their cries
Not treasuring what they already had
A contradiction of one another
They had called back an abomination
A power so strong without no end
Essence without permanent foundation
Good verse evil within one entity
Each knowing but willing to take the chance
Releasing twilight upon barren days
Where evil and good will soon bare romance
Mere mortals holding only to release
The beginning of their Armageddon

Post CommentUnfinished Business
Just unfinished business calling my name
I would love to lay by your side but can't
It would be so futile laying in vain
An empty glass just a hollow vessel
Wondered what was wrong why love could not be
A feeling of incomplete just empty
Gnawing of the heart wanting to be free
Unfinished business refused to let go
Mistaking the wanting to be for love
Then I knew it was unfinished business
The thing I craved for, the thing I thought of
Sad to see you go but I must let you
Life's road is not always what you desire
Sometimes it adds a few logs to the fire
I would love to lay by your side but can't
It would be so futile laying in vain
An empty glass just a hollow vessel
Wondered what was wrong why love could not be
A feeling of incomplete just empty
Gnawing of the heart wanting to be free
Unfinished business refused to let go
Mistaking the wanting to be for love
Then I knew it was unfinished business
The thing I craved for, the thing I thought of
Sad to see you go but I must let you
Life's road is not always what you desire
Sometimes it adds a few logs to the fire

Post CommentTides of Love
You captured me turning my life to bliss
Raining down upon me euphoria
Caressing my soul with warmth from your kiss
Turning the cold of winter to summer
Removing my fears as you make us one
Your presence surrounding me comforting
I relax accepting you, you have won
My state of being now between heavens
Wishing to stay in this time for all time
To ride upon the wings of nothingness
No thought no dreams only now in my mind
Waves rocking as in a sweet lullaby
Slowly the tides recede and I must go
Life will return as I leave this I know
Raining down upon me euphoria
Caressing my soul with warmth from your kiss
Turning the cold of winter to summer
Removing my fears as you make us one
Your presence surrounding me comforting
I relax accepting you, you have won
My state of being now between heavens
Wishing to stay in this time for all time
To ride upon the wings of nothingness
No thought no dreams only now in my mind
Waves rocking as in a sweet lullaby
Slowly the tides recede and I must go
Life will return as I leave this I know

About this poem:
It is fun to take something we love like the ocean and turn it into so much more with just the mere wording. Thank you for accompying me on my beach trip
She Walked with Grace (sonnet)
She walked with grace through grassy meadows
pausing to smell the sensual fragrance
watching the rabbits dart down their barrows
their white tails flashing creating a drama
Azure skies blazing, making perfect the day
she laid in the grass. dreaming of her lover
handsome and very tall he was her mainstay
he set her alight making everything brighter
She remembered the way they spun around
as they danced together through the night
gay garlands hanging down they were spell bound
silhouetted in the dazzling firelight
That perfect night when all the world stood still
their last dance that night was a quadrille
pausing to smell the sensual fragrance
watching the rabbits dart down their barrows
their white tails flashing creating a drama
Azure skies blazing, making perfect the day
she laid in the grass. dreaming of her lover
handsome and very tall he was her mainstay
he set her alight making everything brighter
She remembered the way they spun around
as they danced together through the night
gay garlands hanging down they were spell bound
silhouetted in the dazzling firelight
That perfect night when all the world stood still
their last dance that night was a quadrille
