gardenia's fragrance
wafting through open window
before summer's heat

smoke grey clouds hover
surrounding an orange moon
a fire in the sky

enjoying a play
and what could make it better?
just your hand in mine

winds blow through new leaves
cool breezes rustling along--
refreshing the land

in your eyes 05/02/11

i look into your eyes
seconds before our first kiss

i see desire struggling against caution
i see hope pulling away from fear

i see the same emotions
in your eyes
that are fighting for dominance
in mine

then we kiss
and the first hurdles
are overcome

Poetry 05/01/11

Poetry

Ghost words from centuries past
Jaunty words that create a happy theme
Unknown words, like azizy, for fun
Angry words that shout and scream

Sad words that break your heart
Loving words to heal it again
Release the words all the words
That are waiting to be freed from your pen

meeting you
has opened my eyes
to magic
to wonder
to new possibilities
to being happy
