Crowded flower appliques
A composition of lacing
Disguises lilac fronds
Pillowing shyly together
They’re found giggling
Fragile muses, for many
A frilly mound of petals
Subdued hues, whispering
Come hither, Darling
There’s this face I see
In the mirror
Occasionally lost in fantasy
Pushing through
Emotionless days
I’m done looking
Sunshine
Show your rays
Fingers pointing out
All my flaws
One freckle
Two freckles, gone
Forget it
Lost cause
Nose too short
Cheeks too big
None mine
All inherited
Should be thankful
Proud, too
Yet poisoned
By You
Love winks when you’d rather ignore
Love consumes when you’d rather starve
Love explains when you’d rather stay silent
Love excuses when you’d rather blame
Love is consistent when you’d rather defer
Love proves when you’d rather theorize
Love believes when you’d rather crumble
Love conquers when you’d rather retreat
Love can be amazing, understand me, please
Quietly, I approach the black night
Looking for a glimpse of elusive you
Never far away, yet always out of sight
I crave your flighty essence, my dear
Leaning into who I believe you are
I wait patiently for you to arrive
Shadows lurking beneath the water
I sense that you are incredibly near
Elusiveness keeps your heart beating
Day dwellers will never be your type
However, I’ve seen you rise for me
Your calmness soothes irrational fears
Some would push to cage your spirit
Others have threatened your home
I’m merely looking for a way inside
The mind I can’t seem to leave alone
Eerily the stalwart wind begins to blow
I’m reminded, night comes before light
Quickly you change your path’s course
I’m left to marvel over once in a lifetime
Come with me, Darling
Abandon reality for me, please
I’ve something to show you
Bite your lip, no questions allowed
Remember, Baby, it’s me
We both know you love it here
Happy you’re following and I asked
Watch my long legs tiptoe along
Nature’s pathway of wild grass
A secret hideaway found beyond
You’ll know what to do
Take over and lead
I trust you
Beauty of the garden
Soft, smooth and velvety
Perfect shade to please
In season and willing
For you to take a peek
Approach her gently
Don’t confuse her
With your favorites
She’s no lady in waiting
She’s completely aware
Of what she offers
Not your normal flavor
Command her attention
Ease into her with caution
She shines iridescent inside
Out there tonight
Somewhere sacred
Two lovers deeply sigh
Lost in each other’s comfort
Inspired by their passionate love
Longing to drift off in search of ours
I close my eyes and dream only of you
