Thank You
Thank you for giving me happiness. Thank you for giving me a time in my life when I didn’t cry myself to sleep with the last thought in my head a plea to God to please let me not wake up in the morning. Thank you for your patience, acceptance and understanding even when you didn’t really want to give it anymore. Thank you for knowing that I needed to feel like I belonged and giving me the space to express my self. Thank you for your decency and humanity. I appreciate you.

Worship You
I could worship you
But
I know I would lose my soul
In you
I've not that much time
Let's leave good enough alone
In deep like
But
I know I would lose my soul
In you
I've not that much time
Let's leave good enough alone
In deep like

Snow
A still exists.
Between the cascading and tumbling fall.
The snowflakes, a thousand identities
for one winters cause.
I'm captivated in silent enthrall.
The noiseless beauty drives peace
into the illusions of my needs.
Provokes nostalgic moments, of long ago snows, buried in memory's vault.
Snow is the way the tortured cold bleeds.
Between the cascading and tumbling fall.
The snowflakes, a thousand identities
for one winters cause.
I'm captivated in silent enthrall.
The noiseless beauty drives peace
into the illusions of my needs.
Provokes nostalgic moments, of long ago snows, buried in memory's vault.
Snow is the way the tortured cold bleeds.

Paid For
In a world of consumerism
I hoped one thing would be free.
As it wasn’t tangible
how could it possibly be purchased?
Pleading for an emotional refund
I was declined the reimbursement.
Because in the end,
we are all bought.
Final Sale!

Bewitching
Looking in, I see compromise
concetions are made to love unconditionally
it is for me to give of myself
Pieces of my melancholy
my happiness on parade
Then look the other way
when I fail to fascinate
Wth the understanding it is bewitching
to think I alone entertain
Drinking of a love potion
falling from my lips enchantments
Dancing on the winds
swaying my hips
enough to mesmerize
Hypnotic with its need my shyness speaks
lilt the perfection
seeping in the energy
gifting my power
taste...

A Soft Pillow Fit For A King
Eclipsing the feeling of a pulsating heart is a beautifully lassoed
Heart in midnight oasis bathes in its dew to fortified is consoled
The tender recipient of earth’s clandestine rule
Worn sentiments on the sleeve
The mind gently speaks when infinity seeps
Lust, desires, rapture merging under my sweeten honeyed grace
Whispered undulations of love to my ear from his handsome face
My love reaches across the vast of the sea
Passion and ecstasy from the beautiful creed that evolves me ...

Potatoes From the Store
One potato, three potato, four potato more
every potato in the bag was rotten,
so I kicked them out the door.
I loaded them back in the bag,
and I took them back to the store.
I told the lady my problem,
and she asked me if I’d like more.
“Another bag of these?” I said,
“Oh, no thank you.”
“This brand I utterly deplore.”
“It’s quite intolerable.”
“Oh no, I don’t want anymore!”
“Please find me something better,
or I’ll go find another store.”
One with better produce, I thought,
and I dropped the bag to the floor. ...

one raindrop
how do
you hope
to build
up
the great
river,
you are
only
one single
raindrop,
millions
of us
have pledged
ourselves
to help
become
that river,
countless
waterways over
the world,
and
even though
i am one,
together
we can
accomplish
many unthought
things, with
determination.

NEED A CUDDLE
Need a cuddle, perhaps you're are available?
Promise I will not dally and linger too long
Perhaps seven or possibly eight hours
Quite possibly maybe till the break of dawn.
Give me enough time to satisfy this craving
That lingers with me all day and
all night
I am soon gonna wind up in the loony bin
If I can not get a taste of your sweet delights.
Need a cuddle, perhaps you are available?
To take me to heaven and we'll knock on the door
I promise I will not ever overstay my welcome
It'll only be until eternity,...

Arianelle
Arianelle, where have you gone?
As quickly as you came,
You have upped sticks and vanished.
Who is going to light my mornings now,
Who is going to fill the void?
You were a breath of fresh air,
Young, natural and distractively pretty,
Able to stop traffic in its tracks -
Intelligent with the world at your feet,
Oh and a good poet too, whoops! My bad.
What on Earth has happened to you, this brief flourish -
Was someone upsetting you?
Maybe you have found somewhere better to go,
Or maybe, just maybe, you're taking a...
