See Things For What They Can Be

How Life Is

From time to time, my eyes search the skies

If I bend an ear, I can hear the cries

It is for me to wonder, as I am perplexed

How life is at times, as real as it gets

The violence and anger portrayed day to day

It is for revenge, it is for justice some say

I am truely beholden, this way that I live

It is but one life given, for me to give

Round and round, the cycle of life bestows

Like our earth, round the sun it goes

Event after one, another continues onward

You would think lessons learned, from outside inward

Time goes by round the world as it turns

The violence unending as hearts fire burns

Is it for justice? Is it peace?

I continue to wonder, will it ever, ever cease

Dance With Me

As the sun begins its rise above the horizon

Awaken thine eyes and dance with me

The leaves of trees will applaud with appreciation

As branches sway in the breeze that is gentle

Dance with me as morning birds sing

Wondrously grateful for the dawn

Lifting their voices to the heavens

Dance with me

As the sky is filled throughout, with the cover of clouds

Bringing sounds that thunder as lightning strikes

As heavy rain abundantly falls, dance with me

Til we are wet as that which the rain has covered

My love, my sweet sweet love

Dance with me

The sky clears, revealing its color of blue

High now is the sun’s warmth to dry that which is moistened

Dance with me through the heat of the afternoon

As the squirrels scurry to gather

And insects make haste in their doings

Dance to the stroke of my hand

Gentle down the center of thy chest

Overwhelmed in intoxicated ecstasy

Dance with me, dance with me

The sun has set upon the ocean’s seas

The coolness of the night has come

The sights of lighted bugs breaks the darkness

Sounds of the night is nature’s music

Dance with me to the sights and sounds

As I hold you close to no separation

Wanting nothing between us ~ yes, nothing

We can dance til exhausted pleasure overcomes

Where sleep will soon capture our eyes

And rest will overtake our bodies

Until then, Dance With Me

Mirrored

As I am mirrored, I see not myself

I see your smile that is not, but is

The sparkle that glistens as the reflected sun

 I see you looking not, but glancing

Stealing your moments, wanting

You beat my heart to pounding

The feel of your passion intensifies me

Holding you warm to me, but not

Alas, you are not here

Standing before my mirror am I

All that is, are reflected moments

Mirrored in my heart, my mind

What Time Is It?

As the sun rises to beginning of day

I wonder, What time is it?

How do I say what is in my heart

What has been said time and again

Do you tire to hear what has been

Are your ears aching for newness?

Does the warmth of my breath excite you still?

Do you long for my touch softly?

The chill of thy skin speaks to me, yes

Your ear close to my lips says speak

You say to me soft spoken, my name

Gentle as the morning dew

Embrace we do in kisses of fire

Arousal, as this rising sun awakens the day

Questions that had me in wonderment

At this moment, it matters not

What time is it?

Days Of The Mind

My most recent days have been focused on things around me. My mind is being filled with the events of the days in appreciation for what has become a part of my life in some ways. That covers such a wide span of categories I now I can’t cover them all right now.

I have been taking pictures of clouds hanging above us. Looking at them and noticing they are as close as the wave of my hands above my head. The different layers of what looks like cotton balls or stretched pillow stuffing across the sky. At the same time I realize what it would take for me to be in the same area as these pieces of nature make their way through this space in time.

The trees that block our view from things we want to capture in memories, photo albums of the mind. Those same trees giving us shade, shielding us from the heat of the sun that hangs in the heavens, providing more than just light and heat…giving the sustenance for our lives.

Noticing things we take for granted as simple as a light pole…that seems such a part of our surroundings, we don’t even see them anymore…as significant as they are.

IMAG0165

 

So much has become of our world that simple things are insignificant anymore. The many doors that blot our journey, contain changes in our lives. Many doors will go unopened…waiting to reveal a shading tree, cotton masses in the sky, a star that is placed at the perfect spot for this planet to thrive. Just a moment….a space in time….for the days of the mind.

My Morning Sky

Sometimes Is Always

As the branches tree outward

Leaves wave their appreciation

The summer’s rain cleanses

And the morning dew quenches.

The night sky is spotted twinkling

The moon’s light is sunny bright

Hear nature that is seen

Day and night throughout

Never sometimes, but constant

Rounding the hills through valleys

Under mountains, over water’s fall

For sometimes is always, evermore

My Signature
