For A Moment, Layered In 24K Gold
Determined and rugged is the great city Beyond it's gates, stand ancient conifers dusted, with lichen glistening , as if layered in 24 karat gold.
Welcomed in by an opening in the canopy i advance, into a colored blur of light mixing with shades of sepia.
Shadows from the city create an image, of the mighty metropolis.
Hot iron and hard steel cast onto curved ivory towers
A breathtaking replica of independece and strength in equal submission.
Stickiness coats the worn path ahead, where honeysuckle wraps itself around eucalyptus, the blending aroma of all that is good, and all that is lovely,
marks an impression into the back of your mind
Embedded deep within the woods,
water from the creek trickles, between pink sandstone cliffs, enticing the warm sounds of forward motion that iinvade like a stimulus, spilling down onto maidenshair fern,
It rises, eager to receive its portion and more more.
I watch in shyness as her fronds unfurl.
Dew drips from her delicateness onto wild orchid below.
The exotic hues in shades of fuschia explode pulling me, transforming me.
I linger awhile, before eventually, slipping away back to the city

Stormy Velour
••••••••••••••••••
Follow me into the storm; tempest
winds cradling and
carrying our tenacious strides in the
inquisitive, whimsical sway.
While heaven's subtle violet and crimson tinged vault drizzles,
cling tightly to me during the escalating downpour and innocent assualt of
ripe lightning.
As the crisp flicker and flash adrenalizes and dizzies our periphery, rock steady writhe in the musked petrichor of pearlescent rain.
When the storm of velour
kisses and strangles
the last of your resolve, settle within my embrace,
'til the white thundering rage

floods and subsides; storm tides hard driven and internalized.

The dragon lady
What endeavor
To fallen the silkened robe
And gently
She curls and shifts
To the floor
Lies a soft red mass
The tasseled wild
And wants to be pulled
Belted around modesty
And rounded hues
Peaches and pinks
And blue stare penetrates
An awakened and vulnerable state
No wallow
Or crippled virtue
But willingness
Joins red satiny melt
Again to the floor
Again to the floor
Submission grants
A posture
Bend and huff
Grip and strong arching
He implements bite
And wolfies snarl
Come daybreak
Will find her tassel
Removed to ever
Be tugged again
And the delicate green dragon
Stitch
Shredded
And beyond its steely gaze
To fallen the silkened robe
And gently
She curls and shifts
To the floor
Lies a soft red mass
The tasseled wild
And wants to be pulled
Belted around modesty
And rounded hues
Peaches and pinks
And blue stare penetrates
An awakened and vulnerable state
No wallow
Or crippled virtue
But willingness
Joins red satiny melt
Again to the floor
Again to the floor
Submission grants
A posture
Bend and huff
Grip and strong arching
He implements bite
And wolfies snarl
Come daybreak
Will find her tassel
Removed to ever
Be tugged again
And the delicate green dragon
Stitch
Shredded
And beyond its steely gaze

Night Fury
Let us be like a night fury
Dancing in the dead of night
Two shadows intertwined
One passion taking flight
Let them listen to our song
Chiming down the valley below
Let them search for the secret we hold
Echoed in every blackened hole
Night furies have night duties
We don’t bother them
Once morning breaks, they’ll soar elsewhere
Performing it all, again
Dancing in the dead of night
Two shadows intertwined
One passion taking flight
Let them listen to our song
Chiming down the valley below
Let them search for the secret we hold
Echoed in every blackened hole
Night furies have night duties
We don’t bother them
Once morning breaks, they’ll soar elsewhere
Performing it all, again

Pleasing perfumed warmth
interwoven in the course of
colorful forbidden fantasies
we share one sweet moment
in the slowly sliding silence
expelled from the reality
of whispering your name.

Twilight darkness
a swish of silk in twilight darkness
unveils the rose scented horizon
of sharing warm emotions
when we savor together
opalescent sweet dew
born from our
ritual union,
moment
to be
one.
