To the Father of My future Children…

To the Father of My future Children…

Since I know you don’t exist

Can I compliment your hair?

Can I say your eyes are beautiful?

Or that they sparkle in the sun?

I feel I know your laughter

The way it touches my soul

When the wind blows a certain way

It feels like your breath on my neck

And since it doesn’t matter

I’ll say I love your lips

The way they touch mine gently

Then whisper I love you

Often

Entrapped

A wild wind whispers through the trees
It murmurs your name silently
Time is waiting on a half thought prayer
All of creation is full of anticipation
Your name is spoken
Time stops
The world starts spinning again
Only to come crashing
When your lips meet mine
Pleading, pulling my breath from my body
Slowly I surrender
Yours
Completely

What Men Really Want...

What Men Really Want…

Why must men insist and say

Care not for dress, throw wiles away

Who put it about, who heard it said

A man cares for the looks inside our heads?

But do they mean it, what they say?

Or is it an attempt to gain our bed?

They try to stay two steps ahead

Why must men persist and say…

A loving wife they wish to wed

To laugh and smile all the day

Intelligence should fill their head

Care not for dress, throw wiles away

It’s enough to make a girl see red

To find the original protégée.

Who thought enough to think of a way?

Who put it about, who made it said?

A girl is beautiful for skills she conveys

Not bosoms big, shining hair or lips of red

When that is true, I’ll seize the day

When a man cares for the looks inside our heads!

Extinguished

Kiss me a thousand times

Let me feel your lips against mine

Hold me gently

Brush my hair back

With your elegant fingers

Light my way into the night

Spiraling even higher

Soaring on gossamer wings

Pulled into ecstasy

Burning with passion

Then

Extinguished
