POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
As a lover of life and music I found myself jotting down poems and was asked once what kind of poems I write which was always erotic and non-erotic but upon much thought I now just say romantic poems as romance isn't always about chocolate and flowers.
One More Day
One more day,
…not seeing you
One more day,
...you are not here
One more day,
...I miss you
One more day,
...not in your arms
Life moves along like a train out of a station,
the signs fly past, the seasons change
Longing for your smile
Longing for your touch
One more day not to have you, is,
One more day, not spent, in your arms
…not seeing you
One more day,
...you are not here
One more day,
...I miss you
One more day,
...not in your arms
Life moves along like a train out of a station,
the signs fly past, the seasons change
Longing for your smile
Longing for your touch
One more day not to have you, is,
One more day, not spent, in your arms

Lunch Date
Her ebony eyes,
a smile is cast
the light shines through the glass
reflects off the table...
a confidence,
an intelligence,
independence and hope
reflecting off the table the light...
a sorrow,
an empty loneliness,
longing and desire
turning the page, the quill of ink...
...has yet to dry
a smile is cast
the light shines through the glass
reflects off the table...
a confidence,
an intelligence,
independence and hope
reflecting off the table the light...
a sorrow,
an empty loneliness,
longing and desire
turning the page, the quill of ink...
...has yet to dry

The Snapshot
A shot taken,
...time stops
frozen...
The camera captures time
...shackles it
imprisons it...
...a memory
...a death
life locked forever in a snapshot of eternal...
...solitude
...damnation
...forgotten
...time stops
frozen...
The camera captures time
...shackles it
imprisons it...
...a memory
...a death
life locked forever in a snapshot of eternal...
...solitude
...damnation
...forgotten

Music Come To Life
Waking beside you,
my world begun
A life started,
with the,
warmth of your sun...
As I smile and caress...
your hair and your cheek,
this dormant heart...
begins to beat
A happiness to have found...
Music of my soul come to life
A living composition...
Wrapped in a musical staff
my world begun
A life started,
with the,
warmth of your sun...
As I smile and caress...
your hair and your cheek,
this dormant heart...
begins to beat
A happiness to have found...
Music of my soul come to life
A living composition...
Wrapped in a musical staff

Music
Anticipation:
a feeling of being alive...
a sense of accomplishment...
My life, my lover, my friend,
Six strings that bring forth a magic
A wonderland of a living waking dream
Excitement:
a feeling of moving onward, upward...
a sense of being awake, alert
In her arms..,
Music's embrace...
...a warmth, that always, grows
a feeling of being alive...
a sense of accomplishment...
My life, my lover, my friend,
Six strings that bring forth a magic
A wonderland of a living waking dream
Excitement:
a feeling of moving onward, upward...
a sense of being awake, alert
In her arms..,
Music's embrace...
...a warmth, that always, grows

November
November creeps slowly into the room
A dark haze looms over
The coming of a shadow falls closely behind,
the shroud of loneliness that comes forth,
with the coming of Winter
A cold draft swirls round these bones,
the coming of a chill
A shaking and rattling of the shards of
a passing season of youth left behind
That comes forth with the passing of time
November smiles a sly but cheerful smile
shakes the hat and straightens it
winks from the corner to come in and settle down
Time to rest before November moves...
A dark haze looms over
The coming of a shadow falls closely behind,
the shroud of loneliness that comes forth,
with the coming of Winter
A cold draft swirls round these bones,
the coming of a chill
A shaking and rattling of the shards of
a passing season of youth left behind
That comes forth with the passing of time
November smiles a sly but cheerful smile
shakes the hat and straightens it
winks from the corner to come in and settle down
Time to rest before November moves...

Passion
The waves start to roll
hitting the shore
the tempo of their crests breaks
rising and falling
Crashing against the rocks,
violently,
tenderly,
The sky darkens,
the sea builds
a roaring crescendo
a sudden calm
The waves gently caress the shore
their gentle crests break softly
...as the tide rolls out
hitting the shore
the tempo of their crests breaks
rising and falling
Crashing against the rocks,
violently,
tenderly,
The sky darkens,
the sea builds
a roaring crescendo
a sudden calm
The waves gently caress the shore
their gentle crests break softly
...as the tide rolls out

The Fireplace
Running in to escape the cold
laughing as the door closed
arms wrapped 'round to warm their chills
Wood was gathered and lit...
a small flame brought to life
a dim light into the room
Holding each other in front of the fire
he tenderly kissed her cheek
touched her breast
Naked they now moved to...
...

I Fell Ever So Hard For You
I fell ever so hard for you
One look in your eyes was all it took
They haunt...,
...my waking sleep
They haunt,
...my waking thoughts
Days pass and turn into months
I refrain from opening the door
A narrow road I walk
Just the wind...
keeps me company
Your vision lights,
the stars,
the moon,
Music plays but a simple...
One look in your eyes was all it took
They haunt...,
...my waking sleep
They haunt,
...my waking thoughts
Days pass and turn into months
I refrain from opening the door
A narrow road I walk
Just the wind...
keeps me company
Your vision lights,
the stars,
the moon,
Music plays but a simple...

Everyday
everyday I wake...
…to go back to bed
everyday I wake...
...the days I dread
everyday I wake...
...yes its still the same
everyday I wake...
and the dice roll go 'round this game
everyday I wake...
…to go back to bed
…to go back to bed
everyday I wake...
...the days I dread
everyday I wake...
...yes its still the same
everyday I wake...
and the dice roll go 'round this game
everyday I wake...
…to go back to bed
