This is…free flowing from my heart. This is…pure emotion and dedication. This is…for you, the other half of my One. The First The first touch Binds us forever The first kiss Keeps us together The first taking Leaves us quaking Now I feel you keeping me Yet keeping me at bay Possible is hard...

Broken My spirit is broken, Never to be free Who I am is lost There is no more me No one can help me No one dare tread Who I was gone Lost forever dead Forever trapped in limbo Wondering for eternity Death is even too afraid He leaves me wondering restlessly My dreams...

I have been exploring various forms of poetry as of late- including Mirrored Refrain, Acrostic, and hell, I wrote my fist Haiku last week. I was even tormented and tortured by the Alexandrine(thank you, you know who)—a twelve syllable poem that is two lines of six syllables separated by ||—to the point of almost...

I turned the burner up a little with this —okay, a lot. But I also toyed with another concept here and will leave it to you, my faithful fans, to discover it. If you do–drop it in the comments…. You Folks Rock!!! The Burn Hungry fire builds in your emerald eyes Those gorgeous orbs...

Summer is winding down and I was inspired to write another that thrusts the four seasons together with love for another mash-up … The Season of Our Love Summer wanes like a fading ocean tide Autumn will flood and then forge its retreat Leaving Winter’s cold waters to preside Until Spring’s renewal laps at...

My latest submission, this , was inspired by some very beautiful words I read somewhere. Knowing where I read those words isn’t nearly as important as seeing what I felt because of those words. Inspiration is out there, floating around- all anyone needs to do is to be open and ready for when the...

My third published in a week is again not a sonnet, hell, I wouldn’t know what to call this except another foray into an emotion uncovered and played with while I watched the sun come up a few days ago… Yes, I am Watching the Sunrise Yes, I am watching the sunrise And holding...

Though this is no sonnet, it is still awash with the the emotion of love… Our Oak Under an oak atop a small mountain Is where our hearts shall e’er play As our love will flourish every day The nights will keep no angry stain The onslaught of Winter’s icy bite Will ply no...

I have had many comments on my that end up with ‘Who are you writing these for’, or ‘That is one lucky girl’, or ‘She better know what she has in you’. These are written for no one to speak of- they are results of me finding an emotion and swimming in it for...

Full Circle In the dawn of the morning, she takes his hand She slides her body over his ready to take her stand Her sensual desire controls her mind Her graceful body responding in kind Her sweet lips melt against his flesh As their bodies begin to meld and mesh She rides him and...

Almost all the way back to conventional crafting for this old dog…. Missing When be those moments of the greatest pain? At what clock ticks does my heart ache and woe? What are those places worry makes great gain? Where lie the avenues of deep sorrow? They’re the long minutes I hear naught of...

This was written for my darling co-host at EWNN, Sue Reddy-Silverman. She requested it, and I am delivering. Enjoy this Sue… In the Garden of Florida South, in the heat of the peninsula To the very end, a lover wanders Roams the sultry garden of  Florida And he can see one of nature’s wonders...

Another…yes…. I am addicted and there seems to be no turning back. This one goes back to the classic styles and usage of the sonnet- kinda, sorta, maybe… The Breath of Excalibur The search of a lifetime is nigh to close I know the treasure to be close at hand So near is the...

Working my way back to a more traditional sonnet than is, but still trying to remain modern in this adventure… 1500cc of Love The ride was nothing short of true greatness A late day sun was full and nurturing The wind gave us waving trees as witness Winged friends had songs of our amore...

Metaphorically speaking, a Light 2.0 The techs believed all switches went to null They smugly knew all the lights were put out They set the machine down, thinking it was dull Assured they had won, beyond any doubt But somewhere behind circuit boards and wires There remains a beacon burning so bright Mortal men...

This is my third published —I have few private ones stashed away—and I have to admit I am becoming quickly addicted. Thank you for the structure lesson… A Call For You Goddamn my heart is lost without your hand Reaching into my throat it calls your name Oh please show yourself to this aching...

Well, now I have gone and done it. For the first time ever, I took a stab at real, structured with this sonnet. I think I like it- geez, me being structured just doesn’t seem right… The Sound Of Freedom Always before, I have kept one foot back Staying behind to give me anchorage...

Scribbles form my notebook… Breaking Ground Rich In Grade I have shouldered a worthy blade Harnessed a steed of the greatest might Breaking ground rich in grade I’m told the crops can never be right With the horse a true furrow is made Following, I steady a cumbersome plough Breaking ground rich in grade...

A Lover Waits… A lover waits beside an open door For passion to come, ecstasy and more Another walks toward and holds the key To bliss and joy if it’s meant to be Lips meet as two lovers touch Neither knew that they could feel so much Gently yet the passion rises high As...
