MISSING
I am missing... Only to be found by myself when I look under a nearby rock. I get so lost and I wonder if I can recoil back into safety, before that inevitable piano falls from the tenth floor and crushes me with it's symphony. I suspect that the lines and wrinkles in my face could tell a million...

MUST BE THE GREEN TEA
The words don't come... Where they have gone, I have no idea. Covertly, casually, Sipping on my green tea I clear my throat, compelling the words that want to be said in my head, And copied onto computer screen... But nothing happens. I need something stronger than green tea... ©G.W.S. 2009

HOPE FOR THE NEW YEAR
"Hope" is often rented by the year.... A "Happy New Year" helps ensure the signing. People like transitions to be clear, (Especially at moments meant for dining.) Yet, even as an apartment can be a home, No one wants to terminate this lease. Each thinks hope too poor a risk to own But needs its...

SIMPLY HOLD ME
(as a new year is about to begin...) Hold me now, as you have all these years. Hold me fast, and wipe away the tears, Keep me anchored to the ground, No matter how hard winds of change may blow Keep your arms around me, And don't ever let me go, Hold me now, Hold me fast, Hold me forever. ©G.W.S....

A MOMENT OF PEACE
The world is quiet... The world is white. The snow is falling among the trees Peacefully, quietly... People walk past, People walk fast to stay out of the cold. The snow is falling Untouched, untainted, at least for awhile... The night is silent The ground is whitened with a bed of sparkling...

GUARDIAN OF THE WOODLAND
Sharp slicing, icy winds, slam against an aged tree whose days as Guardian of the Woodland are at an end... Its branches bow and sway, coated in an icy shroud; its tree trunk cracks, sound like a rifle shot in the howling wind. Guardian Tree, now knowing it must die, It musters all remaining...

SNEAKING DOWNSTAIRS
When I was young Christmas was.... Waking VERY early, sneaking downstairs, Shaking presents, Listening to see if Mom Was awake.... When I was in my teens Christmas was sleeping later to appear cool. After all, getting up early was for KIDS! Trying to appear blase about the whole thing when in...

A SIMPLE CANDLE
Candles are a gift of light... A tiny sun, a bit of star. No other dancer in the night Dances with such sheer delight, Little souls serene and bright... Each a glimpse of what we are Shining innocent and pure. ©G.W.S.2008

WHERE DO KISSES LEAD?
It's freezing cold outside... But here inside it's warm and cozy Snuggled safely together under covers. My lips prowl and plant kisses On your eyelids, On your forehead, On your ears, And on your neck... Who knows where this might lead? All kisses lead to the heart... ©G.W.S. 2008

SNOW SOUNDS
(a repost that just seems right on a day we have been buried by a 10 inch snowfall) It's nice sometimes just to hear the wind, the gently falling rain, or snow flakes snuggling into the drift outside the door.... The sound of snowflakes..imagine..be very still listening out for their song, their...
