This photo was taken by my hubby, as he and our son
were on a backpacking trip..Ansel Adams Wilderness.
My son is the hiker you see right in front. 🙂

Craving
I’m over you completely
Where once was a sweetness
that entranced your heart
now lies a bitter taste
keeping us apart
and no, I don’t crave
your feather kisses
your warm embraces
or your slow, soft touches
that bring delicious tingles
and you don’t hold my mind
captive each and every day
in every moment I’m awake
or star in my dreams
creating an emotional ache
Of course, I don’t need you,
like the air I breathe
in each day to survive
You can be sure
I’m doing just fine

For You
Sadness is my anchor
for the bruises on your heart
for the pain in your soul
for answers untold
I seek soothing words
to ease your mind
but to their presence
I am blind
In hoping to comfort
a new prayer is said
for healing and peace
and all pain released

Winter’s Gift
I’m mesmerized by the colors
that dance across your face
as flames carry out a jazz recital
my heartbeat meets their pace
Your eyes penetrate
with a hunger that feeds
You touch me with your thoughts
fulfilling all my needs
Wrap your warmth around me
with soul, body, and mind
and touch my lips so gently
to taste the sweet, sweet wine

In-Between Life
A quiet interlude of two consenting minds
connecting in desired agreement
A gentle kiss becoming delectable
bodies embracing, passion flaring
the baring of equally loving souls
Each giving to fulfillment
breathless whispers
over the moon ending
descending into
anticipation
for the next
lovely
rendezvous
