Poet Introduction
soul food
Kiss on a velvet glove
Wild woman
Where are you now?
You are the only one
Who can show me how
To love again
With all my heart
Wild woman within
You said we would never part
We will always be together
You said on that Fall day
But like a one-night lover
You came but did not stay
I need the wild woman
Deep inside of me
To save me from ruin
This cannot be my destiny
I want to be free
To live and laugh and love
Free from the shackles of society
A kiss on a velvet glove
Where are you now?
You are the only one
Who can show me how
To love again
With all my heart
Wild woman within
You said we would never part
We will always be together
You said on that Fall day
But like a one-night lover
You came but did not stay
I need the wild woman
Deep inside of me
To save me from ruin
This cannot be my destiny
I want to be free
To live and laugh and love
Free from the shackles of society
A kiss on a velvet glove

A Perfect Lover
Just another day today
Winsome and feeling alone
I don't have much to say
Except that I am stoned
Not from the weed I smoked at five
But rather from the hours
Spent living this human life
The time now devoured
Into the great abyss
Where all wasted time must go
And just one kiss
Would make my heart whole
The longing for a connection
To belong to another
Beautiful, pure affection
A perfect lover
One to kiss my cares away
Perhaps to dry my tears
For this is what I crave
An...

Wednesdays are for Poets
Wednesdays are called hump day
For no particular reason
For those of us working five days
Season after season
Week after week we toil
Marking off the time
Days of the week to spoil
Our free time to rhyme
For poets are we
Loving to pen a verse
And Wednesdays are not free
They make out days adverse
When the words are mine
I must write them down
Tuesday, Wednesday or any other time
Pen to paper, verb to noun
The words flow like water
Not caring for time or day ...

Your smell lingers
Honeysuckle blossoms in my garden
Do not smell as sweet
As the scent of your hardened
Body when we meet
To be wrapped in your arms
I, lush and in bloom
Envelop me in your charms
For this affair will end too soon
And like so many others
I will reminisce at the thought
Nights spent with my lover
His body, strong and taut
I will wear a flower in my hair
To remind me of a time
Hours spent without a care
Ignoring all the signs
That I would never call you mine
Like water...

Re·crim·i·na·tions
Love in the afternoon
Does not bear a night's gloom
Nor morning recriminations
Of overactive imaginations
Hot sweaty bodies entwined
Drenched in sweat divine
No more "will you be mine"
Just passing a moment in time
Does not bear a night's gloom
Nor morning recriminations
Of overactive imaginations
Hot sweaty bodies entwined
Drenched in sweat divine
No more "will you be mine"
Just passing a moment in time

Your kiss made me cry
All this time I thought it was him
But all this time it was really you
Damn you for haunting me
Damn me for wanting you
Your rejection brought me to my knees
And just when I thought I was free
You reached out and touched me
You should have let me be
Because now the obsession is calling
And I don't want to answer but I do
Because no other man has ever
Satisfied me like you
I miss your touch
Your kiss made me cry
And I can't forget
No matter how I try
But all this time it was really you
Damn you for haunting me
Damn me for wanting you
Your rejection brought me to my knees
And just when I thought I was free
You reached out and touched me
You should have let me be
Because now the obsession is calling
And I don't want to answer but I do
Because no other man has ever
Satisfied me like you
I miss your touch
Your kiss made me cry
And I can't forget
No matter how I try

Fantasy
Sometimes a fantasy
Is better than a memory
For memories fade with time
Fantasies are divine
Exactly what you make of them
You know they are perfect when
They can be put away when spent
Unlike love which only ends
Is better than a memory
For memories fade with time
Fantasies are divine
Exactly what you make of them
You know they are perfect when
They can be put away when spent
Unlike love which only ends

Green Eyed Monster
I am jealous of the woman who
Holds you in her arms tonight
For I once knew
Your body's sight
In my own bed
Now left alone
I envy her spread
I am bared to the bone
Of the thought of you and she
Locked in warm embrace
And I long to be free
Of the memory of your face
Calling me to you on a dark night
Longing for me with such desire
Every night I alone fight
For freedom from the fire
That you lit within me then
When you would call my name
Filled with passion for when
I would be...
Holds you in her arms tonight
For I once knew
Your body's sight

Now left alone

I am bared to the bone

Locked in warm embrace
And I long to be free
Of the memory of your face
Calling me to you on a dark night
Longing for me with such desire
Every night I alone fight
For freedom from the fire
That you lit within me then
When you would call my name
Filled with passion for when

The Noir
In this lonely bed I lie
Longing for the touch
Of the man for which I pine
Longing for the rush
Long nights are slow to end
Time is endless while alone
With the memory of when
A time I should atone
For each hour with you
Left me longing for more
Even though they are not new
Remembrances of the noir
This night is dark and bleak
I spend in solitude
I know from whence I speak
I recall the mood
And the heartbreak
Crying silently in the abyss
All this I would forsake
With just one...
Longing for the touch
Of the man for which I pine

Long nights are slow to end

For each hour with you

Even though they are not new
Remembrances of the noir
This night is dark and bleak
I spend in solitude
I know from whence I speak
I recall the mood
And the heartbreak
Crying silently in the abyss
All this I would forsake

My poetry I would read for you
My poetry I will read to you
My song I will sing to you
My love I will make to you
If you promise to be true
My pearls have been cast before
I was surely mistaken sore
I do not long for pain any more
Promise me you will restore
My faith in mankind’s good
Believing that every person should
Were that everyone could
Give their promise that they would
Always be true
My song I will sing to you
My love I will make to you
If you promise to be true
My pearls have been cast before
I was surely mistaken sore
I do not long for pain any more
Promise me you will restore
My faith in mankind’s good
Believing that every person should
Were that everyone could
Give their promise that they would
Always be true

La Chapa de Hierro
La música en la distancia
Pensando en el
Me llena de recuerdos
Que no puedo olvidar
Esta noche busco la razón
El motivo, la explicación
Quiero adivinar la motivación
Y porque se fueron
Mi corazón está cerrado
Nadie puede entrar
La chapa de hierro
La llave de oro
Me siguen buscando
Vigilante por el amor
La llave de oro
Estoy lista abrir esto candado
Escapar a mis sueños
Dejando el pasado
Vivir a nuevo
Con amor y paz
Lista para mi futura
Olvida el pasado ...
