Sleepless

Tantalised by sleep, I reach towards my dreams My assignations with the mind's delight But my yearning is denied, it seems That my bloodshot eyes must search the night Alert, awake, somehow wired Beyond all chance of gentle rest And the renewal that I most desired. The night moves on and I,... Sign in to see full entry.

The Lion Dance

Take your places for the lion dance, Prepare to leap and whirl and laugh And seek joy in every step and turn. Be ready to utterly believe In the strength and beauty of romance, Let Love speak on your behalf Without restraint or concern, Let hearts and bodies interweave And eternities pass in a...

Of Unsettled Mind

Dervish brained, thoughts twist and turn Never stopping, never complete Before they dive back into the tempest That rages inside my brain. Brief images blaze and burn Each individual, discrete, And unrelated, they will not rest The are recognised and gone again, Leaving naught but an outline of... Sign in to see full entry.

Finding my smile

If, when nothing seems to go my way And all around me scowl and stress Declaring this an awful day, A disaster, a mess; If when those around me rage and rant, Rending the day with outraged scream To stand and wildly stare and pant, If at that moment I should seem To stare into space awhile, That is...

The Piano

A moon swept melody rippled from the keyboard, Showering the evening with the soft ice of its song, The exultation of it's romance was a challenge to be explored It's tones sang of a tenderness, where happiness might belong. The ivory soprano reached towards the dance floor, Where the brutality of... Sign in to see full entry.

Missing

I'm missing the tender interlude, That passing caress that delights the day, And makes heaven from where we are. I'm missing the gentle intermission Where hope and heart are softly renewed To shine amid a world of grey In a beauty that nothing can mar. I'm missing that soft condition Which builds...

Share

Share a moment, share forever One second, one smile, at a time; Share good fortune and bad, Bleak winter and bright spring; Share rest and hard endeavour, Each downhill slide, each climb; Share what you have and what you had Share it all, share everything. Sign in to see full entry.

Busy

Task follows task follows task Each moment lost before it starts, Consigned to the mayhem of the day And the tyranny of the to-do list. When do you find that instant to ask "What say the voices of my heart?", When do you finally stop and say "My life should have more joy than this"? When do we say... Sign in to see full entry.

Only The Dance Of Words

I have only the waltz of words, The rhythmic rumba of verse and line To make the passion of my heart beat heard And to convince hers to beat with mine. I have only the written dance, The tender tango of imagery and sound, To reflect the song of our romance, To dazzle and astound. I have only the... Sign in to see full entry.

Built From Love

The whisper of my heart beat rumbled in the silence, The passion of my pulse beating a salsa of desire, Sultry and demanding, no modesty, no pretence To innocent intent. I shall not cower and conspire In the face of your beauty, but let tender fingers dance In the patterns of my adoring need to the... Sign in to see full entry.
