Sea Music

 

Sea music enchants the mind
Where the body can unwind,
Lifted free from tawdry chores
In tune with passion that pours.

Hand in hand drinking the spell
Lit by stars that slay the knell;
Terror’s shadow thwarted by
Waves crashing from upon high.

What has been cannot dismay,
While we taste joy and survey
The mysteries of love’s pulse
Beating fast to bridge the gulf.

Impressions

 

 

To walk on a mountain

Is poetry, not straitened by

Man’s vanity

 

To feel the fresh breeze

Blow is heaven, not frozen by

Terror’s chains

 

To taste the raindrops

Cleansing the tongue is lush

A lover’s embrace

 

To see wild grandeur

Stunning the mind in wonder

Nature’s film flows

 

To laugh with the sun

Raised on hope’s vast balloon

While earth’s songs trill

 

To dance on this land

Becalmed by beauty

Your love, my spur.

 

 

Come Let’s Kiss

 

There is beauty in a view

There is beauty do not miss

There is beauty to be caught

There is beauty, come let’s kiss.

 

There is beauty in your smile

There is beauty that is bliss

There is beauty everywhere

There is beauty, come let’s kiss.

 

There is beauty when we see

There is beauty just like this

There is beauty, swells the heart

There is beauty, come let’s kiss.

 

There is beauty by the sea

There is beauty while fools hiss

There is beauty when we dance

There is beauty, come let’s kiss.

Tea and Cake My Dear?

 

Here is a triolet from before in celebration of tea and some more thoughts on its restorative properties.

 

Travel

 

The soul travels

On the open road

Mind ever alert

On the lookout

For fresh sensations

 

The body travels

On the open road

Dreaming schemes

Green and keen

Like a runner bean

 

The heart travels

On the open road

Threading body and

Soul with a light

Beating on and on

 

Soul and Body

Mind and Heart

All play a part

Loyal and smart

Feeding the flame

On the open road

 

All play a part

Wheeling the spirit

On the open road.

Craving

I picture you

Crowned in light

Where we unshed

The mask of fear

And unleash the

Animal inside

 

I dream of you

Ablaze and lithe

With carnal desire

This I cannot deny

An urge that drives

Sorrow outside

 

I think of you

The way we connect

Mind to mind

Kindness unsheathed

What I long for?

Your tenderness

Undressed.

Night Fever

Stifled by hot desire

I stagger drunkenly

To the window

Stunned

By Love’s heavy

Mist.

 

Letting in the wind

Fanning the thickened

Senses

Body unhinged

By fever’s scalding

Tongue.

 

I give thanks for

Your

Glittering presence.
