In the Grass



Your thirsty bones, insatiate sand.
All that is life glistens down
           those spacious cheeks,
Spilling over blades of lash.

Your Auricle-fed, adventitiously perfect, root
            is this 'every moment of life'.

And the light of your brightness shines.

A Glass Bottom Moon

 
Lying across the expanse of  
rolling sea grass  
turned to moonlight  

that slips past the sun king while  
happiness from yesterday's warmth  
seeps into my spine  
 
making me believe for a while  
that all of me is whole again  
as I once was.  
 
To feel the sand churn  
between fingers and toes  
each time the tide comes in,  
 
lying across the expanse of  
rolling sea grass  
turned to moonlight.

Transmundane

 
I laugh, and dance throughout the atmosphere,
A spirit borne by light, and wind, and cloud!
I sing a song that men shall never hear,
performing for the universe, uncowed!

No form is fit to house the transmundane,
my essence is pure joy of life itself.  
A fickle sprite, I'm innocently vain,  
I fear no poverty, or covet wealth!  
 
This game, called love, that earth-bound mortals play
seems such a waste of time and energy!  
Their lives so short, then ending in decay,  
a stunning contrast to my reverie!  
 
This passing thought, of mankind’s misery,  
dismissed without intentional disdain,  
as, like the wind, I have no history
to give me pause, or memories of pain!

In the Present Moment

Laugh, smile and dance like there is no tomorrow.
It is in that moment, even in the fast pouring rain
That you truly forget about life and every sorrow.

Those tears that you thought would forever stain
Your soul have freed you from the burdens resting
On your shoulders. You are disentangled from pain

Lingering deep within your bones. You are testing
Your strength by walking away from situations that
Are not good and from people who are not investing

In your growth or adding to your happiness. Chitchat,
Noise and the horizon is what you strive to be above.
You deserve more than an empty promise and a flat

Line because you have much to offer with your love.
You always bring peace to this world like a flying dove.

While U love another

I love you
I love you so much
But I’m not prepared
Not prepared to waste the best years of my life
Trying to love you
While you love another
The way I love you

Big Beautiful Woman 1 (BBW)

Patient and kind
Truthful to her words
A hopeful soul, willing to help without asking

Bold and Beautiful
Happy inside her body
Endures a lot because she is strong

Not jealous of anyone
Never, envy shown
No vulgarity
Note, she is BBW

She is never arrogant
She is never rude
She is never boastful
She is never lewd
