Musical Cento

Good morning starshine
There's love in your skies
Reflecting the sunlight
In my lover's eyes
There's a river to cross
And a mountain to climb
Patience, Patience
It's gonna take some time
Trusting desire, starting to learn
Walking through fire without a burn
Clinging on a shoulder a leap begins
Stinging and older, asleep on pins
It's only just out of reach,
Down the block, on a beach,
Under a tree.
I got a feeling there's a miracle due,
Nothing comes from nothing
Nothing ever could
So somewhere in my youth
Or childhood
I must have done something
Something good

Lazy

Simply laying there
Hands running through my hair
Legs entangled
A nice pressure
The sun bestowing it's golden glow
Warm and cosy
The smell of leather and clean sheets
An unmade bed
Nowhere to go or be
Only here
With you and me

What is Sexy

Kisses cooling on my collarbone in the breeze
Hands wound in my hair
Nibbles on my nape
Pulling me so close we co-mingle
That naughty little v
The difference between up and down
Experimenting with both
A happy medium

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

Missing

Missing

Phantom fingers in my hair

Gently sliding down

A slight touch

Deftly caressing

Longing for what cannot be had

The barriers are too high

The cost, too much

Could the world suffer your loss?

Mine would be no heartbreak

Not even a blip on the radar

Separation is good for the soul

Or at least

That is what everyone

Seems convinced I need to hear

What is your opinion, love?

Harpie

Harpie

Along a darkened road

By a glistening brook

A lonely maid sat waiting

For a love to come along

She waited very patiently

She could not comprehend

Why no one ever came looking?

What caused her heart to rend?

Eventually no one remembered

The poor maid waiting there

Till all that was left of her

Was her long luxurious hair

Then there came a minstrel

Lacking proper resources

He used the hair for strings

And the bones for harp pieces

When he brought it to town

The hair played its own tale

The lesson learned by all?

Sometimes even the good fail

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

Simply

Cozy up and Cuddle

Run your hands through my hair

Nothing more

Relaxing by the cackling fire

You with your whisky

My, my tea

Each of us our books

Noses buried

Simply being together

That’s enough

Sharing each other’s space

Our hearts

Lowly Orb

Oh Shallow moon thou art rife with anger

Your lowly orb hangs free and wild

It draws me, leads me away

I bow before it’s pale pure light

It washes o’re my hair

With strands of cherry wine

Green glades seem filled with ignoble creatures

Darkness fills the burgeoning night

I see the path that lies before me

It radiates from deep within

As long as I do not stray, 

I should see home this very night
