POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I am not really a seasoned writer. I write to Feel Less and I read to Feel more.
Tingle Tease
From the bottom of my soles
To the nape of my neck
I had imagined my spine
Shimmering – sparks!
Flying out
No destination in mind.
Once touch
Touched
And that warm tingle
That
Tickles
Teases
And tells me
You are more than
My
Imagination
Infatuation
My
Immersed lust
Luster
For life.
Not yet physical
Soul and electrical
Lingers
Tickles
And
Tingles.
To the nape of my neck
I had imagined my spine
Shimmering – sparks!
Flying out
No destination in mind.
Once touch
Touched
And that warm tingle
That
Tickles
Teases
And tells me
You are more than
My
Imagination
Infatuation
My
Immersed lust
Luster
For life.
Not yet physical
Soul and electrical
Lingers
Tickles
And
Tingles.

INFATUATION Factual
FACE TO FACE
STANDING APART
OUR EYES IN PLACE
A SPACE FOR THE HEART
A SPARKLE IN THERE
FAILED SUPPRESSED SMILE
BALLET MOVEMENTS WITH CARE
AND LIKING FOR A WHILE;
BREATHE DEEPLY
EXHALE SLOW, EVER SLOWLY
WE'RE STILL A CHILD
SILENTLY GAZING
SILVER GLIMMERING START
OUR THOUGHT BEGAN GRAZING
UPON ONE ANOTHER'S HEART
BLINK. . .
SMILE. . .
sh sh sh sh sh...I am thinking

Rugs Me Gently
In an honest reasoning
meanings become us all
while within 4 seasons
love will teach us all
as well
one and the fool is I
In the end,
there are no stray ends
of finality for friends
our intimate spirits so
unconditionally touching
Somewhere beyond waking
over the hills green
of wet dew upon the lawn
relaxation can only mar
via closed eyes the
quiet sleepy dawn still
But Yous and mine, loves
to be certain and the
peace which somehow
passes the understanding ...

**Sigh - Addicted to the Thought of Being In.....
Steady pounding rain fell upon Your
ocean beach as consistent as
our relationship, at our present time.
Walking, nevertheless, fingers interwoven
and tightly clasped, alternate intervals:
arm in arm.....armed.
Glassy-eyed, I gazed into the heavens
and Aaaaaaaaaaaahhh.....
what an enchanting evening to be in love
and the warm thoughts of us to
keep the cool at bay.
The sun begins its slow descent from view
kissing with open mouth the horizon
swallowing whole the oceans of my desires.
Have I told You...

I have needed
You,
Your breathing
into me
Fills
my lungs
which
vacate
making
room
for
You.

O my...
Walking aside,
my shadow entwined ,
followed You.
Aside from a trip
(and I did)
from uneven sidewalk
nearing...
I fell in close
proximity
to Your spirit.
Oops, I dropped
my heart.
Holding my breath
I waited for
You...
to walk over it
to side step it
to ignore it
to step on it
But through my
wet face and
drenched shaded
eyes, I saw You
Gently scoop it up
and love me.

Close Call (Afraid to Risk)
Today,
I nearly told You
I wanted You.
I wanted to be with You
I wanted to grow anew
I wanted to be only true
I wanted. . .to wanting You.......................Whew!
Close Call.
Near a given days end----we could be----
And O, how tempting;
But, NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
TSK, TSK, TSK,
am I AFRAID TO RISK?
You are not the first and it's not my first time,
So why did You make me feel so frisky?
I want to tell You,
But I feel it's very risky (why?!)!

Close Calls
Close,
Doesn't count
When dealing with
Horseshoes
Shuffleboad
Snooker
Hand Grenades
Ropeless Rock Climbing
or
Atomic Wars.
Close,
Counts only when one
Cares.

It's electrical, my Love
Quietly and all at once,
You walked with me
like You'd been here all along,
my friend and my lover...
we both belong here together.
It is I who could not be silent.
For when You touched me inside
an eternal flame grew white hot
and I had to let it out a lot
to cool my spirit and heart.
Now tepid and just the right
amount of heart and friction
You and me can now begin to be
stronger and more intimate
than either one of us could
have imagined months ago.
Between then and our...

Light & Netted
Beyond all reason
lighted and light
a casual bump of
synchronous meet.
It never fails
to be full of love
for the universal
& with omnipotent
Beauty
See Beauty in all.
She captures me
nets my child-like
curiosity
Her butterfly net
gently girds me
with
and with her
intelligence!
I am in and with
and within and
her mind
her spirituality
and perhaps
most of all
her
her kindness.

HOPE
She came to me on moonbeams.
I believe I've met her in all my astral dreams.
The calm she bestowed me, made me believe ----
in all my impossible schemes.
Her wisdom, I've found
is much more intoxicating than fine dry wines.
Her name is Hope
and she shines brighter within the
hearts of the indigent.
