Morning After (Re-post)

Sun spills in 

 through billowing curtains

gently, though,

so not to startle dreams

Sated bodies delight in

love tangling

 Sheets silky soft

caressing skin

nothing can compare

to this moment

that shouldn’t end

but we bid farewell

to moonlight

knowing we have sunlight

to share

Another re-post for lack of new material. 🙂
So I hope you enjoy this bit of romance a second time
and maybe even a first time for some of you.
Wishing you all a wonderful week ahead! ♥

Hidden Treasures

handwritten letter

I love emailing and texting,
this new way of writing
Its speed is appealing
and very inviting

Though, I cannot deny
how special it feels
when in my mailbox
a letter is revealed

A handwritten note
may not be as quick
yet, the time devoted
can’t be felt with a click

Don’t misunderstand
the keyboard stays close
but once in awhile
with a pen, I’ll compose

Laugh Lines – Haiku

as the mirror meets

her gaze, she sees them, clearly –

wisdom or old age?

(Of course, “she” is used in general terms,
as this can be for men, too.
Just some simple thoughts on aging,
our reactions and what we’ll do about it,
if anything.
Me? I won’t do anything; no desire,
but I will pray (really hard) to age gracefully.

To Dad: A Father’s Day Tribute ♥

Mom and Dad wedding 1945

From Air Force days
to a forever blind date
Six decades of sharing love
to his lovely soul mate

He misses her now
but has managed along
with support of three daughters
He’s where he belongs

His memory entertains
from WWII days
amazing those who listen
Is 93 his true age?

He’s able to witness
a senior graduation
He’s so proud of our son
His face wears true elation

Then one incident
shakes up our world
The worst of thoughts
in my mind unfurl

But with God’s blessing
and His ideal timing
this story ends happily
Our sun remains shining

Dad
