Lonely is the Night

Did I give too much

to the wrong person?

Are my lines

blistering & cold?

Will there be

another hand to hold?

The night drones on

& I'm

all alone

My imagination

usually takes me

to new heights

but not tonight

Color Me Beautiful

Grab your brush
My skin
Your perfect sin
Paint me your
Favorite color
My sighs
Precious
Confetti pink
Kisses
Down my spine
Velvet thine

Sordid Fairytale

My fantasy
Full of carnal desire
To taste on
The tip of my tongue
No pixie dust here
Although
That is my favorite mask
It's soft & sweet
It's hard & poignant
It's lustrous
Free & completely
Unrestricted
Unrestrained
Screaming into
The light of the moon
Coming up
From behind
Pounding it home

Caged Animal

Read me
Feel me
These words
Scratching your screen
Talons curling
On their perch
Twitching
Watching the door
To my cage
Eyes locked on the
Latch to my release

Into the Deep

Breathing in the

ocean deep

calming waves

washing over me

suspended tranquility

Calalilies & Rain

Long petal
Reaching up
Cupping each
Precious raindrop
Beads of water
Dripping
To her center
Feeding her.

Escape

Don't save me
It's too late for that
I just want to
Escape
Into you
Breathe you in

Against the Wall

The only time
I like getting
Backed in a corner
Against a wall
Is if you're going to
Come at me
Full throttle
Leaving me
No other option
Then to
Feel what
You're all about
Kiss me hard
So I don't question it.

Night Rhapsody

Music man's
Singing his song
Again
About love and
It's wrapping me in
Getting lost in his words
The melody
Carrying me away
Affection
Beautiful attraction

Backyard Again

Tucked away the
Sweater and the cardigan
Flip flop
Bunny hop
Splish-splashing in the
Little pool
Eensy-weensy
Bikini days
Summer haze
The smell of
Coconut oil
The sound of
Laughter
Rising in the wind
Put all calls on hold
I'm in the
Backyard again

Songwriters and Poets

Making love to the word
The note
Penning a heart on a page
Synthesizing; soothing sage
Carrying the audience away
For a moment in time.

Bohemian Sun

Bare feet
Stomping grass
'Round a circle
Of daisies
Under a
Blazing
Orange sun.

Nature Does It Best

Nature
Has her way
Opening the tight
Closed petals
Bud arcing
Yielding
Begging
Opening
To the cool
Soothing rain
Letting it in
Flower sparkling
In the rays of the sun.

Fields of Lavender

Lay me down in
Lavender
Thrill my skin
Find my
Spring song
Tickle
The hem
Of my dress
Make me a mess
Kiss me
Put me
Back together again

Notion of Emotion

Touch
My thoughts
Feel
My soul
Hear
My heart
Taste
My words
See
My spirit

The pen of
My ink
Making love
To the
Blue lined
Page

Cat Walk

Painted toes
Slinky heels
Glistening ankles
Legs
Shiny & smooth
Sexy gait
Figure 8

This sidewalk
is my
Cat walk
Sun kissing
My skin
Summer dress
Breeze
Billowing
I'm going
Somewhere.

Lily of the Valley

Coquettish
Tiny, white buds
Bowing
Kissing
Green, green grass
Humbly.

Under the Light of the Moon

Pull back the covers
Let me slide
Comfortably close
To your side
Wrap your arms
Around me
Cover me
Cover you
Cover us
Let the silver light
Spill over us
I want to hear you
Breathing
Feel your chest rise
Ride the soft tide
Of your deep
Oceanic soul
Fall asleep
In your warmth.

Body Rising

She's got a mind of her own
This body mine
Thoughts of you
See how she does shine
Bated breath
Chest rising
Rapid tempo
My body's
Own symphonic crescendo
I try to quell her
Wasting my time
When I tell her
Hush
She feels the rush

Don't Go

Don't you go leavin' me now
Not now
Now that I feel a
New beginning
Winter so cold
Yours
The only hand to hold
Spring is here
And the flowers
Are just beginning to bloom
Everything beginning to warm
If you leave
Your shadow will surely linger
In my lonely room
You found me
Crouching in the corner
Now I'm standing
No longer the forlorner
The sun neither setting
Nor rising
Perfect and glorious in the
Afternoon sky I look upon
Let's lay in the new
Green grass
Look up together
Carry on.

Pages of My Diary

Tattered edges of the beginning
The words aren't fading
But they're not as
Stark
I opened it
Truly
To only a
Few
True few
Who
Handed the
Naked
Lonely words
A warm blanket
Of understanding
Some even picked up
The pen of hope and
Helped me write when
I felt like screaming in the
Middle of my isolated storm
Making me feel not so isolated

Over You

I'm over you
Filling your senses
Crashing your
Innocent
Little dreams
I'm under you
Shaking and
Breathless
Begging for more
You
In me
My every thought
My midnight whisper
Before the sandman
Visits my dreamy mind
He does it every time
Smiling
Knowing

Cool Cotton Sheets

During our dreamscape
interludes
I twist and turn
or simply lay silent as you
hold me listening to my heart.
I
listening to your voice
caress my inner skin
beneath these cool
cotton sheets.

Imagining our feet
intertwining
mingling
tickling.
Simple skin
on skin.
My hand resting
in the haven of
your chest.
Rising and falling.
My fingers tracing
imaginary circles.
Cool sheets cooling our
impassioned
flesh.

Not Letting Go

Just how am I supposed to
Let you go
Now that you've
Shown yourself to me
The question is rhetorical
No need to answer when
I've all ready
Made up my mind
Who's to say where
We go
If we go
You've seen me
Stripped down
Bared soul
There from the
Beginning
The sun's
Just coming up
You let me sleep
But now I'm awake
If thoughts are all I have
Then with me
I'll take
I'll always have you
No it's not enough
But how sweet the
Thoughts that find me
When I think of you
Holding my hand
Combing your fingers
Through my hair
