Poet Introduction
Painting is silent poetry, and poetry is painting that speaks. ~ Plutarch So let me speak to those who care to listen ...
Apart
Hard as a rock -
Your heart.
Its solid barrier holds
Me apart.
Please let me be
The constant dripping.

Me apart.

Moving on
Is there perhaps
A place
Where all the
Butterflies go
After having left
The stomachs of lovers
Fallen out
Of love?

One Star {JohnFeddeler} / The Sun
one star will guide us across the desert of discontent,
will carry us beyond the obsidian mountains, to deliver
us to the verdant valley, secure and blessed in the
radiant light that we adore, one star.
The sun will lead us to the well of joy,
Will carry us over and above the meager ridges, to take
Us to the fruitful orchards, blossoming and blooming in the
Infolding warmth from which mankind evolved, the sun.

Once - Haiku
Once a proud iris
Broken stem and trampled buds
You’ve done a good job

Woman with curves - a Limerick, spontaneous collaboration with jagracia. That was fun!
There once was a woman with curves
who liked all the men who she served.
She went down on them all
queued up in the hall
getting all just what they deserved.

Come to me
My heart flutters
like sparrows
with no place to land.
Come to me
and give it a rest
in the palm
of your hand.

You and I
Sliding down rainbows
In search of the horizon
Rollercoaster fast

In vain
Those little
words of passion
you breathe into
my neck
are they supposed
to mean a thing?

If
If you kissed me
I'd feel less of a whore
But who are you
That I wish for more?

Afterwards ...
your leg
above
my hip.
Are we really
that close?

You
Volatile smile
volatile scent
for solidity
never meant.
