Hope

YOUR ROSE---FOREVER!

The rose will prevail
In it's steadfast dignity;
Beauty, grace, and charm.

Neglected, ignored,
Discarded, forgotten hope;
Spring forth young lilac.

Summer's waning light,
Winter's cold unending night.
Your Rose, forever in bloom.



Romance Novel

She was soft and available to him
Her unbound breast heaved with a sigh
The smell of lavender and sweet hay
Lingers on her thighs.

His heart tripped as leather was stripped
from her womanly curves.
Hunger for closeness, sensual touch
High voltage roving his nerves.

There must be release
During this undeniable feast
The pounding -- ready to explode
Her limbs to unfold.

surrender
mount
the astonishing scene
thunder clashes
bells ring
angels sing
explosive jerks
several spurts
release the undying need.

Should be reading
A book of breeding
But I confess
I digressed.


A Layer Lies Between Us


a layer lies between us

thinner than a silk sheath

we feel the warmth

but not the heat

we hear the heart

its whispered beat

we see the eyes

the tears are dry

we reach but miss

the final kiss

as we say good-bye





What is in your heart, my love?

I spy on you
When you don’t see me
Taking in your quietness--
Silently.

I’m intrigued.
Your brow is furling
Deep in thought--
Pondering.

What is in your heart, my love?
‘Tis hidden from me.
Do you think of the two of us--
Lovingly?


WILDFLOWERS

Wildflowers
Grace the hillside
Sunlight licking
golden mustard plants
’neath the young olive trees.
The garden bench you made
cradles my body
while reading Austen
on this lazy Saturday afternoon.
Gently an easterly breeze
warms my white naked feet as they
Rest atop a snoring boxer’s
soft auburn fur.
