"New under the sun"

 New under the sun

I fear you think you'll disappoint

I assure you it's untrue

All of life, you do anoint

It's not of me, it's you

Without your piercing glare of fire

Witless still undone

For all my life, you did inspire

You're new beneath the sun

A combination, fire and will

For all eternity, you are still

The light that shines so bright

Amidst the dark of night


In all your suffering and pain

In which confusion held its reign

Steady on, the rage and fire

Mixed with loving and desire

You carry on to bring to life

Humanity amidst the strife

With loving so unmatched

Until the race has hatched

Into its loving ways

"Cryptic River"

 Cryptic river

There is one reason that I seek for more

This tete a tete has something else in store

The Cryptic river bleeds across the scene

Leaving me in bafflement between

I don't know whether mocking or a sign

The Cryptic river leaves much to define

Offense in feeling mocked and left for dead

Is not a pleasing thought within my head

With revelations far beyond the norm

I'll always battle back from any storm

As the Cryptic river flows

With questions asked or body blows

Pure disdain or loving's throes

It's not as if I really chose

No will involved the Gypsy Rose

Just this most extraordinary feeling or sense

"Transpiration"

 Transpiration

I wish I could write as I used to desire

Of the love and the heart that will always inspire

While not in defeat

This heart has been beat

Due to absence of love to transpire

The witless have taken their toll

I ache for humanity whole

The feelings I vet

As I ponder the Met

Once again, to the conjure of goal

Of meeting of hearts

If in fits and in starts

Still, it is better than heart in the role

Of life in the barren and darkness of night

Amidst lack of love, in its pain and its plight

As I seek for completion of soul


"Colours of the sun"

 Colours of the sun

So bright it blinds the vision

Left, only indecision

The colours never seen

The truth is never gleaned

As colours glow about her

Her blaze becomes a detour

Her blaze that so diminishes the sun

As winsome ways of mind become undone

A whisper in your head says revel now

Spread your arms out wide and take a bow

Responsibly, the signs are on the rise

You welcome back the world with brief surprise


Well, that was fun.  I can't say I'm that fond of it, though.  So, I tried, again.


The colours of the sun are never seen

Beneath the brightness, colours unforeseen

But brighter, still, the wonder that is She

Her colours masked beneath calliope

The guise becomes Her brightness as She sings

Of sacrificial altar and of kings

More colours than a rainbow radiates

More threads than in the tapestry of fates


I give up.  I just really liked the title alot.  It suits what I would like to say today as I sought something new to say.

"Intrusions end"

 Intrusions end

Don't worry my dear

I won't be there

As you take to the stage, once more

Your revel is clear

I'd hate to stare

As you open your heart to the score


Intrusions are ending

But, rhoems are wending

To make of this life what I may

No certainty here

That the ether is clear

But, still, I have something to say


I won't bother your stride

As I take to the ride

In the only way left

 Without feeling bereft

'Tis just as it's been in the past

My existence remaining a fast

Something I never have sought

But the will on its own as it fought

Through the willanuck ways that are taught

Excuse me if rhoems are wrought

For you

"Do I miss you?"

 Do I miss you?

As the Earth would miss the sun

Or butterfly its wings

Like sea would miss its water

Or you would miss your rings

As the sky would miss the blue

And bee would miss its sting

I've missed you through and through

From that moment in the spring

When your golden voice did sing

And images did ring

The heart did spring

"Bomb squad"

 Bomb Squad

Like a skittish colt on Sunday morning

Or, bomb squad just receiving warning

Blood that burns like lava flowing rock

A mind like cheapest jewelry out for hock

Is me in your presence

"Whirlwind"

Whirlwind

In praise of a woman with wonderful eyes

Transforming expressions forever arise

The sweetest component, to ne'er realize

Her songs of the heart mesmerize


My celebration of her heart sustained in will and fire

The lifetimes will be many more, led by my heart's desire

To find new ways to celebrate the loving of that heart

And mesmerizing way she has from finish to the start

The whirlwind of emotions that cascade along her skin

It is my goal to circumvent the armour and the din



"Smooth"

 Smooth

Like soft summer showers that light up the skin

Like warm, gentle touch of the loving within

So smooth, like the wash of the sea on the sands 

Like jagged chain lightning ignites as it lands

Like two-twenty volts made of satin and lace

Like rockets exploding and gone without trace

The smoothness erupts and the shock comprehends

That loving will last as each heartbeat transcends


"Woman"

 Woman

The briskness of a winter morn

The warmth of summer breeze

First light of day as it is born

A sigh among the trees

For Woman


Daffodils in garden growing

Falling leaves of color

Lovely as a freshet Flowing

All of life is fuller

With Woman


The wind that sings from far above

The heart that moves us on

The engine of unending love

That brings about new dawn

You are woman



"Resplendence"

 Resplendence

Resplendent in a hurricane of lace

Bedecked in piles of elegance and grace

She walks upon the wind in her attire

To take the steps of life amidst the fire

The wonder of her wizardry, it seems

Is best displayed amongst transcendent dreams

"Sky II"

 Sky**

I lay upon a carpet of green grass

Contemplating sky and clouds that pass

As shades of white and blue go through my mind

So like the clouds, I drift along and find

That, once again, my thoughts have turned to you

Obscuring all that falls within purview

Ever-present loving saturates

I ponder thoughts of passion and the fates

Upon the drifting clouds, so soft and fair

Drifts these thoughts of deepest loving care

Heart goes with the clouds upon their travels

As the worried thought of heart unravels

Wind picks up and sighs with thoughts of love

Heart returns with feelings far above

Sun begins to set upon the day

Night begins to fondle interplay

The shining moon reflects your sweet demure

Twinkling stars emerge as feelings stir

Night of summer breeze so slowly passed

Light of newborn day is coming fast

Sun arises with a heartfelt sigh

In radiance of shining clear blue sky

Filling, once again, with love that I

Give back unto the morning's open sky
