"Destiny"

  Destiny

Destiny is seldom as it seems

From life to life, the love will see extremes

From loving of one lover to another

To loving child for sake of loving mother

A cry across all time for loving of

A soul that cries it's always been in love

"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


"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 Saturn miss its 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


"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

lost poem

 Happy Birthday 2016/(17?)

Crystal ships soar high above and glisten

Angels sigh and songbirds pause to listen

For the day has come

With beating of the drum

Celebration of the day she first

Brought to me a life-fulfilling thirst

As from her lungs the songs, in colours, burst

From that moment on, my beating heart

Responded to the tunes she did impart


For long and long, her glow ne'er came to rest

In journey of the heart made manifest

Trapped beneath the waves, she found her way

But, always, always passion held her sway

The power chained within the hurricane

Drew from heart of mine the depths of pain

She knocked the stuffing right out into staves

Washing all the shores with all She craves


Her glow began in rhythm as she rose above the sea

The pulsing of her heart and glow stir in my memory

A shelter rose within this heart in time of greatest need

In return for dazzlement of wonder do I plead


The blowing of the hurricane transforms

From battering of ships into the storms

To gentle breeze of swaying song

Of loving of a life so strong

Strengthened by the love I have for you

Into a cord of life with loving view

Happy Birthday 2024

 Happy birthday 2024, My Gypsy Empress


You spread your wings and fly beyond all bounds

Of  strictures held by all relentless hounds

You glisten in the morning of new dawn

I pray you love until all wind is drawn

The passion of the moment turns to passion everlasting

Beyond the bounds and scope of life's tremendous casting

My vision has been focused on your love deserved

In presence of spectacular delight as lightly served

As selfless as can vastly be construed and still retain 

The sanity so necessary midst the pouring rain

Don't worry, I don't cry that much

Immensity of time and such

Assures me we connect

All lives in retrospect

I'll love you all eternity, I celebrate each ray

When time arrives in which we both will sing and play

Excitement all I care to feel

Anticipating love so real

Let the hardened armour deliquesce 

Enough for interchange to acquiesce



"Kaleidoscopic"

Kaleidoscopic

While shattering a life into its parts

Rearranging shards through loving arts

Swirling them to view within the eye

Only yours create a breathless sigh

To spin the barrel, gaze through swirling maze

In dizzy wonder cast before my gaze

The colours of the rainbow on display

Of images and sounds and words that play

I thank you for this gift that saw me through

The struggles of revealing something new

-

While  shards of your Kaleidoscope abound

I cannot paint a picture of the sound

The voice rings out, evoking crystals that I spy

Creating spinning whorls before my eye

The spell entwined, coincident with images of you

Begins, again, eruption of the feelings that are due

And now I know I've known it all along

Kaleidoscopic voice that sings the song

Strums the deepest nuance of my heart

The lovely spectral views, its counterpart

-

The lyrics, like the voice that shatters glass

Kaleidoscopic fractals strewn en masse

Another whirlwind always stirring heart

The pieces of the whole that fall apart

Creates the shards of crystals in the eye

So, wondrous and heart-wrenching, do I fly



I'll detail not kaleidoscope revealed so long ago

Moving on to all the other shards of you I know

Each prism on its own that makes my heart careen

Combine in constellation and a panoramic scene

I drift upon the sounds and varied images of view

The sense of life, the soul of love, and peace I touch anew

No more to spout the depths of desperate longing that I strew

Kaleidoscope, a sea of depths beyond a stage review

The violin plays softly on the constellation's stars

Each note performed distinct as sensed in love's harmonic bars


Stained glass is scattered far from window pane

In multi-coloured hues of hurricane

A rainbow in the sky of clouds and rain

Kaleidoscopic symmetries remain

In all directions I still see the same

In symmetries, I recognize a name


Kaleidoscopes expand into cocoon

As growing sense of change is being strewn

In cryptic restlessness, the skies festoon

The butterfly emerges from typhoon

To far horizons, symmetries commune

In cavalcade of stars that sing in tune

All meaning held in phases of the moon

My heart transforms this gentle afternoon
