You,
go ahead
push open the gates
they're not locked
they're waiting for you
You,
who years ago
betrayed me with a kiss
a lie, cheated and lay with her
You,
look in the mirror
and heal thyself . . . more

Once upon another time
my story had no end
tomorrow held no promise,
yesterday wasn't my friend
You came, turned a new page,
wedged your love into my plot
wrote me in some good days
punctuated . . . more

I walked in
lacking expectation.
But there you were,
finally,
looking in my direction.
I needed to see into
your clouded window,
recognize who sits
on your dusty throne.
When our eyes met,

you arrive in disguise,
no longer vague,
your nakedness lost in
a sweep of black.
your honesty rips me
out of my head
and when i snap back,
if I could breathe,
i would scream your name.
i want . . . more

The sails flap listless in a damp dead wind.
Sheets limp on the bow, she glances toward a
blank horizon, lost in the distance.
Below deck, frustration and words fill the void.
But here, . . . more

Honey I have heard your sigh

I miss you so much I could die
Every dog has his . . . more

I haven't met you,
But your picture is here.
I haven't touched you,
Yet your touch is clear.
You touched my heart,
And made me love,
Now the very start,
My father above.
I never believed, . . . more

You fall into my empty spaces
and I cradle you with my love;
envelope you with my softness,
and give your heart a rest.
How easy we flow
How easy this is,
being with you.
No tomorrows, . . . more

Carefully tend the garden,
protect her from the weather.
She's only out of season,
not gone away forever.
She amazed us with her beauty,
bloomed in vivid colors,
graced us the summer long,
standing . . . more

I walk along these silent hills
on a carpet of daffodil splendor,
remembering your touch
on that warm spring day,
so many years ago.
I can still see the old church
down in the valley; . . . more

Come here, my love
let me show you
what its like;
Let me love you
like you need;
Let me be soft
for you;
Let me give
to you
with an eagerness
born of love.
Let me yield
to your strength; . . . more

Agape
Reigning supreme at the summit of the glorious mountain of Love,
Agape shrouds herself in mist and mystery.
But like the Theophany of Sinai, She makes herself known
With lightening . . . more

Until the flower blooms
Until the eagle soars
Until the heavens rain
Waiting for the right moment
Words left unspoken
Feelings unexpressed
Questions unanswered
Love unrequitted
Separate paths . . . more

In the oppressive heat of the night
He longed for her
To reach out and touch her
To kiss her, to love her
But she was not there
Would she ever be?

Special to this world
You had to have that special cow's milk
Hair with bouncing . . . more
