SilentWhen

Can a bird

Sing when flying

Or does it

Sit silent while

Wandering much like

You I wonder

Do you sing

Songs of me

When you’re fleeing

Or are your

Words only spoken

When you return

FriendsLoversFriends

When friends turn

To lovers turn

To friends something

Happens something deepens

Like the seasons

One moves from

One to the

Next not without

Discomfort does a

Bud not love

Being a bud

Then a leaf

Full of life

And beauty did

It ever think

That it would

Be the carpet

Upon which the

Snow falls being

Nothing more than

A memory when

Friends turn to

Lovers to friends

They understand that

For a brief season

They were one

Thing and now

Another keeping their

Pace with time

Morning (for boo & bean)

And awakened they

Did past lovers

Of mine like

Hatchlings on some

Far off branch

Chirping and cackling

Their good mornings

It made my

Heart sing like

A harpsichord playing

A light minuet

As I sipped

The champagne of

This glorious morn

YouMyLullaby

Oh and as

I hear Heaven’s

Lullabies whispering into

My ears I

Drift off nestled

Like hatchlings atop

Some far off

Tree safe from

The world below

Until I hear

A heart beat

Beating softly realizing

That it’s yours

LovePoem#211

Oh Lord your

Eyes are deep

Earthly rich pools

In which I

Dip and plant

My heart in

Their soil watching

Your smiles grow

Like sunflowers spreading

Across the plains

Of your cheeks

Your teeth as

White as a

Harvest moon guides

Me to bed

And your open

Arms envelope me

Like the airy

Limbs of the

Rivers weeping willows
