Darquize

It was her...fire, my undoing,
Lost my heart by looking
Into those Darquize.
Molten need, intensely brewing;
Oh shit, for you? I’d fall to ruin,
That woman, Darquize.
Depths too deep for swimming,
Fell fast from the beginning,
Hypnotised, Darquize.
Golden galaxies in the sunlight,
Tapetum vision, see through dark nights
Supplicant to your; Darquize.
Reflecting back the lion,
I think I have found my Zion;
Worship-in, those Darquize

Come The Strawberry Harvest


It was right there on the tip of his tongue
kissing lemon with some little tart
a stone pathway, pushcart town
awaiting strawberry festival

juicy and succulent drips mix in pitcher
cool of ice lavished with suckle
so sweet She is dribbling my chin
this my friend, tis a wonderful lil town

local oxen trot with goods
waves from wares drawing interest
sky blue crockery, clay-fired cups
sown sights, given sounds from local artists

evening combs and lanterns glow
smiles produce glint with laughter
soft is this way for country-fried towns
where hands once again touch, respect, love

The Rose

Hatred is a bitter rose
And blooms where bitterness will please
The warmest hearts, its charm has froze
And none escape its tortured freeze

A boy betrayed by mothers love
A girl ensnared by father's pains
A lover's lust that kills a dove
A friend no traitor yet regains

A wise man wrote that bitterness
Can rot the bone like mold
And no-one can betray the thought
Nor wise, nor young, nor old

For men have held that bitter rose
Whose thorns within them lay
Whose wounds they say they cannot feel
From scars of yesterday

And though the thorns that pierce so deep
Within the hand don't bleed
Far gone the tears of red we weap
When men let flowers lead

And some men cry when they let go
And in their writhing pain
They pray to God that they may know
That Love is not in vain

They hurt a time and half a time
And ages roll on by
And yet they're free to find their rhyme
And bask in Love devine

Conversations with Soft Winds©️

Winds softly talk -
guarding precious thoughts  
whispering lowly in breezes about you  
 
dressed in last summers warmth  
you wear that August moon loosely
draped sensually upon your smile  
 
 
such feelings- walk and talk
as if living and breathing
in quiet they surrender to me
 
 
visually I trace my memories on you  
you compete fiercely-  
with the struggling sun  
 
 
                before dawn...

Image created by me.

misty purple rain

I track you in my memories
as your carefully placed image
drifts in and out -  
on familiar clouds
 
speaking softly to me
floating-then falling freely
into the deep canyons of my thinking
 
as if there's a 6th sense -
that carries you back to me  
and i await the revealing  
 
riding upon words of love-
as the hoofs of that great horse  
that once beat the earth to get to me-
are now unheard  
 
i wander through the mountains of life
among the green grassy thoughts  
that grow between them and time
 
trimming the paths carefully  
so seduction  
by dry words in hi grass
aren't waiting  
to abduct my mind and soul
again-
in the season that comes knocking
 
asking me about dreams  
of the we -
that had a meaning with names
i tucked them away inside my sweater
close to my heart - so they won't depart  
 
i can still read the letters  
even fading in the filtered light  
of the tiring days of life
withering away like last summers smile
 
from the deep canyons I hear you faintly-
drifting away on platinum dried clouds  
into the dimness of the aching inside
 
falling away-  
behind the curtains
as i stand in remembrance
 
                  
 
 
 
                  of the misty purple rain...

Awakening

With Nite's demise
Silver star-shine dims in deepest cobalt
Sky's canvass shades to sapphire satin
Fades into pastel peach--
Brush-stroked water colors
Rose-blush, palest pink, and lavender chiffon

Herald the Morning's re-creation
Arise and gaze spell-bound...
Soul appeased, bathed in softly-golden glow
Breath-held silence shattered
By spirited avian Arias

Amber Sun ascends
Gilt-edged mists shimmer...swirl...dissipate
Upon distant hazy hillsides


                     Jocund Day sits proud and poised

My Eyes Are A Tongue  

My mind speaks to you
like my eyes are a tongue
come walk with me
forever after the last song
my inner hawk will bring
precision where others
went wrong
I've stalked the rubble, the ruins
of your past
I know what's gone on .


My deep jewelled eye
fixates, right into your soul
all focus can't deny
the glimmer , the core
that's your inner gold  
you are the main filling
for the completion
of  my life's goal
I am the future king
to you whose queen
but doesn't yet know .

The Bike Ride (final chapter)

Final chapter

My fingers were curling her breasts
Her Driving becomes a zestful wrest,
Twitching the nipples, makes it hard
Perfect time,to play my Trump card

It's time to slide in her juicy burrow
Throbbing her youth making clit furrow,
Stroking wildly & rubbing slither
She,Melting & moaning musical zither

Bewildering bike on barren road
Colliding it on "No Parking" board
Bruised & wounded, drowsing on pave
Submerged in eyes, building love trave.

Somehow, our "The Bike Ride" ends
Hope mojas' love never bends...
Hope our love never bends...

The blind poet

I close my eyes hold them siezed  
feel the words upon the mental slate
on that forked road a stile to navigate  
to grasp and climb what others do with ease  
 
To sense the brail cold pips like hail  
the fractious bounce and just torment  
where is your guide in that dark veil  
none others aid in that intent  
 
dark cellar hold some vintage wine  
 dust that covered slowly clear the sediment  
smell candy floss its sticky twine  
taste the notes that sing in that ferment  
the vintner and the grape  
closed lids savour essences refined  
 
The shutters closed to elevate the glare  
twilight night and candle power inner glow  
mine shaft's coal face with your Canary's song  
your muse to steady  
her white stick tap each furlong  
 
the curtains rustle at the open window  
warm breeze of words and stanza's come
