I enjoy my lovers
but cherish my friends
and sometimes if I’m
really lucky they conjoin
that is the birthplace
of relationship ignited by
the flame of love
it’s the full wind
at your back the
extended arms inviting embrace
the turned head and
wave as one departs
and the silent wink-smile
of some inside joke
only two do know
when amongst many others

LoveSex
I love love I
love loving and now
at this late stage
I have finally learned
that love is not
an expression sex is
an expression love is
That’s all that love
is Love is So
before you run out
to have sex in
order to find love
remember that sex is
an expression of something
else it’s always an
expression of something else
DearWhomever
Dear whomever you are
and wherever you may
be I promise you
this we’ll find each
other in most unlikely
ways and unusual circumstances
we will be surprised
not because we did
but because we actually
did oh I know
here I sit musing
no different than giddy
girls leafing through magazines
and falling in love
but this I know
too whomever you are
you are my last
love my best love
the love which will
carry me above and
beyond and into eternity
and this last love
is my forever love
for love like life
is built upon the
shoulders of many other
failures standing the tallest
and burning the brightest
Dawn
This is by far
my favorite time of
all this early morning
when strangers lovers friends
and the city itself
awaken to each other
to coffees and me
it’s a time of
eggs and of percolators
of showers clean clothes
of yawns and stretches
and for me words
it’s the time when
the low east sun
dabs the cold cheeks
of skyscrapers with rouge
making them simply bloom
like long tall daffodils
and when almost everyone
including the mountains sky
says their good mornings
MaestroPlease
My life is a polka: One step forward and two steps back. But eventually I’ll get to where I’m going.
