softly
ever so gently
no other words
have crept upon me
unknowing as now,
unaware
i have been caught up
in warm embrace
that fills me
and waiting
i lie
comforted
by the assurance
of your memory
lingering within me
i feel
as though i now
have reached
a harbor
one peaceful cove
in starlit sea
guarded by moon
and trees
weathering all storms
i rest
at peace with earth
no troubles
bother me
i long for
a chance
that i might return
in full measure running over,
myself.
I learned how timeless time can be
When heartbeats are pulses of eternity
When sun and moon and stars revolve
About me, insignificant entity
In void alone a vesper shines
A single star becomes a galaxy
When alpha is omega and
When lines run through infinity
The path I run parallels the sun’s
Rays, we merge, an undefined unity
Defying relativity
Fixed points converging in serendipity.
To say I love you is pure subtlety
No words define love’s cosmos within me.
i closed my eyes
my heart was ice
or so i thought
so never sought
to feed the fire
of love’s desire
but love was strong
it proved me wrong
and i now sit
calm at its feet
in love’s full measure
a lover’s treasure
do i love thee well?
i know not my heart’s
mysterious ways
know i only that
it leaps quivering
with every thought of thee
unbounded joy fills me
and in thy presence
I know neither myself
nor do I know existence
lest existence be a loving heart
i know full well i am
thence i love thee well.
my eyes have seen
untold wonders
in yours
reflections of warmth
burning pools of fiery flames
deep fathomless eddies
of unknown
eons of light years
pass as a breeze
with your touch
gently as the wind
riding in gales
crashing torrents
of rain and thunder
blinding lights
of rising spirits
i soar
above clouds
bewinged by love
spirits clinging scanning oceans
scaling mountains
wings folding
gently dropping
rise anew
reaching stars and
the heavens
swirling clouds
hazy skies give in
to blue
the night is filled
sweet sighs
flames grow
winds tearing asunder
what man has joined
i seek
to fly once more
over wind and rain
join wind, join rain
in frenzied dance
clipped wings flutter
helpless, alone
without
you.
