Your gaze touches me
Can you feel my heart beating?
I feed on dreams of us
to escape the pain I’m feeling
I envy oceans’ waves
when they caress the shore
Your loving embrace I miss
how I long for when we were
Time is my enemy, though
for it moves slow as honey
but sweet memories of your kisses
remain my true company
One heart, one mind we’ll be
and I’ll see life in color again
for now, my head lies on your pillow
with love for you I can’t explain

As sure as leaves will fall
at season’s change
and rain will drop
as clouds rearrange
I have fallen
through new doors opened
the key I thought
was lost forever
you have found so cleverly
the lock had suffered
yet, not broken for eternity~

Chasing sunshine as
the wind gives feather kisses
we wave to redwoods

give seriousness
the break it truly deserves
dare to be silly

who dares to be silly,
no matter what.
Part of her everyday
make-up is her smile! ♥
This is another poem I contributed to Scott’s awesome new blog, where he unselfishly shares the work of others. So I hope you’ll take the time to visit his site and you’ll be amazed at all the lovely talent!

Scott’s rave: Wow, my eyes and soul just drank a cafe mocha with whipped cream! I think all my favorite poets are trying to give me an art attack of sensual flow. This one from LScott is obviously no exception and seems to bring together everything one could hope for in describing such a moment. The setting and sensual embrace of both soul and body. So beautifully composed LScott! Please visit LScott Poetry and dive even deeper…

Your eyes have me mesmerized,
For when you look so deeply
with your bedroom stare
You’ve bared my soul
and I’m fully aware
of what is happening
Your eyes are like fingers,
touching me, teasing me,
pleasing me
Then you kiss me like this
and I’m mystified by the spell
you have over me,
I’m lost in the stars,
My heart is where it should be,
for your viewing only
Take my hand,
follow me to another place
and let our love begin again

This is another sample from the 8 or less minute challenge on Scott’s new blog. It also would have been without a title had it not been for him choosing a great one! 🙂

Scott’s rave: I read this tantalizing poem several times! Oceans, waves, and shores are all keywords to awaken my romantic imagination and this one from LScott is a perfect example! She allowed me to name it so I chose “Wake” for it’s dual meaning that fits in both senses here. The wave behind a moving object that spreads as it’s moving forward and the obvious event of a sensual moment evolving, or waking. Oh, how I want to lovingly bait my anticipating muse and show her all my love and desire I…

It’s finally time to SHOUT
“Enough is Enough”
To dust off shields of armor
and flip the switch to “tough”
With every step in each new day
it’s too easy to fret and worry
Wasting a God given moment
instead of cheering in His glory
Toss those words and thoughts
that surely weigh us down
A lighter load will bring us smiles
and erase those dreadful frowns
So, arm in arm, let’s move forward
for strength in perseverance
Do not relent to downward slips
Ignore the interference!
