Snow
I remember
Watching her,
A month before Christmas,
Treading so terribly slow,
Though the walks were not yet
Buried beneath fresh snow;
I remember,
I warned myself,
Don’t ever let her go...
Watching her,
A month before Christmas,
Treading so terribly slow,
Though the walks were not yet
Buried beneath fresh snow;
I remember,
I warned myself,
Don’t ever let her go...

Larissa
I dreamed of you
Again the other night.
Sixteen tattoos counted,
Eight on either thigh.
And I don’t afford myself
The chance to reason why.
(Were they feigned lovers
You bled dry?
Or voracious wolves, that
Gnawed as you cried?
But, no.
I need no reasons why.)
For you, my arms
Remain spread wide
There is a place in my heart,
For you.
A place that does not die.
Again the other night.
Sixteen tattoos counted,
Eight on either thigh.
And I don’t afford myself
The chance to reason why.
(Were they feigned lovers
You bled dry?
Or voracious wolves, that
Gnawed as you cried?
But, no.
I need no reasons why.)
For you, my arms
Remain spread wide
There is a place in my heart,
For you.
A place that does not die.

Heartfelt
My love,
Forgive me
When my words are stowed
In the tremulous touch
Of my fingertips
Skimming along
Your cheekbones;
When my eyes
Shiver wildly;
Trying, impossibly,
To take in all your wonder
In but a moment;
When my lips
Amble artfully along
Your lavender fields,
And my tongue
Trespasses
Amid delicate secrets.
My love,
You are composed of
Stardust and moonlight,
Of seasonal delight:
A soul so gloriously wild;
How winsome you wholly...
Forgive me
When my words are stowed
In the tremulous touch
Of my fingertips
Skimming along
Your cheekbones;
When my eyes
Shiver wildly;
Trying, impossibly,
To take in all your wonder
In but a moment;
When my lips
Amble artfully along
Your lavender fields,
And my tongue
Trespasses
Amid delicate secrets.
My love,
You are composed of
Stardust and moonlight,
Of seasonal delight:
A soul so gloriously wild;
How winsome you wholly...

Envy
I envy her tattoos,
How they ever rest on her;
Maybe they envy me,
How I wander over her, entirely.
How they ever rest on her;
Maybe they envy me,
How I wander over her, entirely.

Calm
I have not
Sat quiet
Beneath the canopy
Of wisdom,
For a very
Very
Long time.

Misc.
I.
Disembark;
Let seep
In to the sand,
Feet, long-wandering;
The first footfall
In this shadowland.
II.
Landlocked;
This wanderlust:
The finest dust,
Drawn in to my lungs;
And for a breath,
A moment, I rest,
And plead my wanderings
Be not yet done.
III.
Plane’s touched down;
The tarmac dark and hot;
My feet are now eager
To squander every mile they’ve got;
But grant me just one...

Spectacle
I knew it was love
When your
Stormy eyes
Burst with wonder,
Like lightning
In the skies.
When your
Stormy eyes
Burst with wonder,
Like lightning
In the skies.

Concerning Lee
I have
Just become
A father.
It was
The happiest moment
In my life.
I hope
I will
Live a life
That
Won’t disappoint him.’

Waking
I wait
To see her
Sleepy eyes
Opening,
Like morning light
Veiled in fog;
And then
Her lips slowly
Bloom in smile,
As a rose
Waking to the dawn.
To see her
Sleepy eyes
Opening,
Like morning light
Veiled in fog;
And then
Her lips slowly
Bloom in smile,
As a rose
Waking to the dawn.
