In My Lover's Eyes

In her eyes I see my future
swirling hope out of the past
a safer place where hearts do race
and waves do wildly crash
The promise of tomorrow
and the beauty of right now
Thankful for the chance to look
into her eyes somehow
 

As Simple As Complex Can Be

Shades of grey on waters dance
to highlight brighter circumstance
For if the hues held only blue
no color else comes shining through
As tears contrast a smiling face
with stories told on cheeks they grace
a shout to silence whispered fear
those echoes rippled far and near
As simple as complex can be
these thoughts are caught and set us free
From lettered speech and words to mind
a fevered pitch of patient time
We all are death by life's design
redeemed though burns reflect remind
Scarred until we're smooth as silk
straight the gait to find your tilt
The rhythmed dream we dare to dance
to highlight brighter circumstance

Waves Like Love Cascade

Sat me once upon a beach
soaking up love's warm embrace
the simplest wind from hearts descend
it's touch as soft as lace
coolness could not touch me
nor close me in with shadows falling
for felt again that gentle wind
unto me there came calling
Soft her voice as heaven's choice
on me did shine for evermore
with me there upon a beach
a warmth worth dying for
Wrapped up in the calming wind
as waves like love cascade
this siren of the midday watch
upon her shoreline played
Dance we do in love's embrace
and chase the pleasure's passion
not to fade this serenade
as waves like love come crashing.

A Door Upon The Ocean

A door upon the ocean

casting shadows on the soul

window found to look around

and watch it all unfold

Birds of prey descending 

circled shadow casting doubt

memories flash like waves they crash

and travel in and out

Easy feel for standing still 

progression is the motion 

a single door but so much more 

adrift upon the ocean

Reflection

Falling back as thoughts refract
still-frames in minded eye
Funny how through hues allowed
they change their rhymthmed rhyme
Brightest blues are darkened
to the greyest shades of night
as Darkness too reflects untrue
portrayed displayed as light
Sudden dance from screened entrance
to prey upon the weak
tortured for a moment more
these portraits that we keep
Soft to heart and words do start
again the frames reflect
Rippled time relax rewind
does not the truth protect
Focus more to what's in store
forget neglect remind
our journey laid before us
playing out as it's designed.

Crash She Did Into Me

Heightened pace to rock the race
embrace and trace control
Simply spent from fingertips
from mind to arm does roll
Gathered hearts and lightening sparks
for mending from their breaking
and all the while the rhythmic style
the journey that we're taking
Skin to glitter hot and burn
perfected fornication
all the styles converged and filed
for future implication
Forced to form the coming storm
through motion of reaction
and all along we write our song
enthralled in satisfaction
Soaking sweat implied perfection
this myriad heart and colored swirl
in moments known we're far from gone
as furies do unfurl
Forced inside and compromised
how quick your lust did find
just one taste to past replace
this tidal wave of mine

Soft On Heart This Serenade

Sunlight shifts and clouds protect
through shapes and swirls of intellect
From heart to mind to face reflect
The thoughts of what the eyes neglect
An ever changing dance displayed
with stunning blues and numbing greys
Soft on heart this serenade
the mood through which my though conveys
The dawn to come and intersect
the midnight moon we all expect
As darkness yawns in waking stretch
return the sun not derelict
Again to shine and hope effect
as sunlight shifts and clouds protect
the shapes and swirls of intellect
Still thoughts of what the eyes neglect
from heart to mind to face reflect
