Quiet reflection
Indigenous surroundings
Contemplating life
Beneath a monochrome sky
Possibility of us

Stale View
Foggy dawning
The air sufficates
Smells proving perverse
Expressions don’t radiate
Not in the same way
Ceasing reagency
Leaving me empty
With no veracious desire
For your troubled voice
Beloved
Secure in your absence
Waves of buoyancy soothe
Pillow clouds form your name
Of little comfort now, Inamorato
Forced to let my feelings show
Tonight, I stumble and admit
What I’d give for your kiss
Melancholy Twilight
Melancholy twilight,
Convinces me to sing,
Of aquamarine skies,
With hues of tangerine.
Leaving me to whisper,
With no idea what to say,
Meet me in my dreams,
Help me forget about today…
Powder Puff Blue
As my morning shifts into view
I breathe in nature’s cue
Submitting to what my mind pursues
All wrapped up in a foggy dew
Of powder puff blue
With you
Love Allows
crimson velvet petals
birthed from a thorny vein
only one request they’re fulfilling
for love, who’s done with emotional pain
my heart is deep enough to hold you
each piece of you, misunderstood
don’t fear what you don’t know
agree to become what never could
Irrational Thinking
Hopeful, above a myriad of emotions,
My devotion towards chasing clouds,
Somehow brings me closer,
To understanding you.
While I wait, with a quiet mind,
Will you explain all the how’s and why’s
Of a universe, in my mind’s eye, gone wild?
Calm the irrational part of my brain,
Then show me that your love,
Isn’t just part of my denial.
Your Embrace
Golden feathers sway quietly,
Entranced by Autumn’s breeze.
Every poetic thought, all for nothing,
If the essence of your embrace leaves me.
Aurora
Pursuing over aurora’s peaks
Ministering to where you’ve been
Defines the pleasure of her dreams
Melody Of Pebbles
Melody of pebbles
Survivors of a rain bath
Glistening variety of colors
Stop me along my walking path
Pausing, I lean down to consider
They all look like you, and I want them
Calm Twilight
Poetic thoughts shatter,
Like glass across a sky of azure.
You arrive on bits of final sunshine,
My mysterious muse.
You capture my presence tonight,
And I feel you inside my wistful soul,
As you voluntarily watch me,
Waiting in the calm twilight.

The final line written by, my girl, Morgan. It is no secret that I adore her poetry, so last week when she wrote the line “waiting in the calm twilight” I mentioned being envious, and then there was some banter and a challenge. I’m following through with using her perfect line in my poem tonight, but mine will pale in comparison once you’ve read her Friday Fantasy poem from last week. You’ll see… ♡ Thanks for letting me borrow your words, Morgan.
Longing Melody
Do you suppose…
If I wait long enough
Missing you will change
The melody of my heartbeat
Back to the noise, I understand
Autumn Swirls
autumn swirls of,
crisp cool morning air,
allow my auburn curls,
a breezy dance,
leaving me captivated,
by the thought of your lead.
Complete Stranger
The way your gentle touch,
Slid down my trembling arm,
And held my frightened hand,
Proves how purely lost and alone,
I am.
Vintage Cream
Intimate wine stained blossom
Watercolored in his apothegm
Prized possession
A bleeding perse into vintage cream
Phenomenal waves of beauty
Style trumping plum perfection
Transfixed by her ruffled edge
Oblivious to how she sashays
The wind, her proprietor, notices
And stays amused with her all day
I See You
I love that prickly feeling,
I feel down my back,
When I sense you nearby.
Goosebumps,
Release across my freckling,
Confirming it’s you in my mirror.
Behind me
Nudging
Whispering
Smiling
Damn, why are you such a tease?
Magical Morning
Simple magic of your words
Allows me to genuinely escape
You holding and molding me
Into your girl, always
Lucky Night
Settled in, feeling charmed tonight
Tonight leaves me not knowing
Knowing between wrong and right
Right here is where I want to be
Be my night and my good morning
Your Omnipotent Reward
All I truly need,
Peeking through,
Is you, always you,
Nothing promising,
yet my omnipotent reward.
