The Past Adieu

The past, adieu in fading blue
as tides do slow erase
and drink of love like oceans
and the shorelines they embrace
Subtle dance of circumstance
adrift on love's regret
though still her fires are burning
in the deepest waters yet
Fiery flame of love's horizon
guide this heart that gilded way
as seasons come and go although
upon this course I stay
Drink of me in memory
to bid this heart adieu
as tides embrace and slow erase
the past in fading blue

Notions Made

Notions made to flutter fade
and prey on love's intent
further still to bend at will
until her heart's content
Willful dance to fate perchance
for all things hinge on time
to ebb and flow like waves we go
for seasons' reasoned rhyme
Chrysalis in woeful bliss
these notions flutter fade
changing in the summer sun
as seasons serenade

Flower Fade

Flower fade to serenade
and sing your elegies
a moment here then disappear
into that gentle breeze
Swirling mists are petal kissed
as blooms give way to time
fall from grace in fate's embrace
the reason to the rhyme
Flower fade to serenade
of ghosts out on the breeze
a moment here then disappear
and sing your elegies

Here Beneath The Ashes

Here beneath the ashes
are our embers still aflame
to dance out on the winter air
and share the heart's remains
Love of chance and circumstance
this flicker bright and new
to burn that hot forever
we endeavor ourselves to
Enrapt in flame these hearts remain
and still that fire they stir
here beneath the ashes
who we are and what we were

Whispers On The Wind Ascend

Whispers on the wind ascend
soft kissed with love bestowed
from angel's lips aloft adrift
out on the night they go
Made to dance in happenstance
the heart's unheard request
whispers on the wind ascend
and spin at her behest
Alive out on the heavens
dreams to dance in hopes to spin
from angel's lips aloft adrift
like whispers on the wind

In Secret Prose

In secret prose do hearts compose
and speak of ways divine
velvet sliding soft on night
and to the skin remind
Fingers light caress invite
and quicken in their pace
as thoughts arise and otherwise
enrapt, enclose, encase
Warming now as hearts resound
that old familiar flame
needle on the canvas of
a love he couldn't tame
But fire knows not the water
just a taste of her embrace
as fingers light caress invite
and quicken in their pace
In loving strokes are passions wrote
and to the skin remind
in secret prose do hearts compose
and speak of ways divine

Forest For The Trees

Beauty found in kneeling down
for hallowed halls are these
all in plot though some see not
just forest for the trees
Wrapped adorned like seasons worn
so warm these colors paint
of hope and love and stars above
unto ourselves acquaint
Come to dance in happenstance
not so for all we do
tilt to whirl as things unfurl
yet fit this grander view
Beauty found in kneeling down
astounded by that grace
that in this vast infinity
I'm right here in my place
Eyes alive and chasing
racing heart to slow its pace
and drink of all its glory
just a moment to embrace
Breathe as time is flowing
waters still a second please
all in plot though some see not
just forest for the trees
