love,
As the sun begins to set
and it's final rays slowly dance
across this golden pond
I silently stare into her reflection
staring back at me
past the old and the weathered ripples
down beneath the surface
into the soul
the deep and loving soul
the memories bubble out
memories of kindness and love
honesty and humility
and memories of you
how I'd do anything for you
for us
I stand here in silence
and dream

love,
In your eyes
I can find
no disguise
I can see
in those eyes
honesty
You’re the one
who by day
is my sun
From your glow
I can feel
your love flow
Moon by night
your light is
my delight
Like a quake
is the love
that we make
Earth shatters
and nothing
else matters
Sweet release
In its wake
I find peace
Sleep, my dear
When you wake
I’ll be here
Valentine
I’m so glad
you are mine

love,
Oh, love from a distance
Such passion is mine
I never thought possible
An ocean's deep mystery line
Soulmate's hearts beat as one
From only the written word
Openness, honesty, is all it takes
World history, such passion unheard
Her beauty astounding, angel in disguise
Jealous Kings of Europe would have fought war
Her kindness and humor melt coldest hearts
Brilliant and creative too, she makes my heart soar
My distant soulmate, who I may never meet
Shared love from a distance, a powerful, magical feat

For My Timothy Lee
With trust in my eyes
I offer my soft side
Where you safely abide.
With honesty in my voice
I share my naked truth
Where you freely run loose.
With a focused brain
I grant my best logic
Where you filter conflict.
With gentleness in my touch
I give my tender care
Where you shatter despair.
With anticipation on my skin
I surrender my body
Where you make grand glory.
With everything I am
I promise you my heart
Where you are the best part.

I'm
the
white fog
layered on
gold-jasmine face of
the orange moon, shimmering with
shy starships and laced along hailstones of honesty;
When the sapphires of earth are etched with orchestral milky beams, smeared with ominous balms,
I want you to weave a cherry-crescent with periwinkle dreams and let aqua-pink amulets swing with gossamer threads of lotus-life,
which shall pull my sempiternal heartstrings, as frost of the last snow kisses the lunar orchards, twirling upon maroon ruins of moonwalking memories. I'll forever be that silver haze, lingering in your soul's seascapes.

how i feel, simple, truth,
There is an ease when l am with you
The way it should be
Never an awkward silence
Just a realness and honesty
No judgements made
You accept me completely
I am me and you are you
Just as love should be ….

Write what you know
Write what you love
Invent a new world
Invent words
Be silly
Play
Write what you see
Write what bothers you
Write what amuses you
Invent a new persona
Let the words dance
Sing them home
Poetry does not have to be fancy
Poetry does not have to be frilly
Be truthful
Heartfelt honesty sells
People love it
Write what you know

faith, hope
Certain moments make this all worthwhile
'Random' presets left but to defile
Blink your eyes to see the flash of white
Blink once more to gain a different sight
Milliseconds gazing at the stars
In which I understood you as you are
And in that time the notion came to me
A sigh of love bled out of honesty
The story of a bruised and rotting pear
That learned to dance on wind and open air

funny, love, parody, me,
I've asked this of many women,
And get strange looks towards my way,
And in all honesty,
I think I ought to say,
What the hell is a concubine??
Is it an imprisoned porcupine?
I just don't really know,
But, ask it I do, often,
With results too easy to show,
That's not a healthy rosy cheek,
But face-slaps I seem to seek,
Stings like all hell,
Oh, what, by God, do tell...
What the hell am I saying aloud,
And why does it leave me less than proud?
Gotta' get me one'a dem fancy dik-shun-arees
Else I be beaten down to my knees..........

MY ROOM OF LIFE
Devotion, Diligence, Activity and Competence
form the building materials to construct my room of Life.
Need, Duty, Honesty and Truth act as enclosures.
Inspiration, Ambition and Achievement are the open windows.
Self- Control finishes the floor.
Open Terrace is made of Love and Dream.
Destiny is the Glass- Ceiling.
Emotion and Passion have done painting
Frustration is the door to escape.

appreciation, friend, friendship, friendship love, heart, meaningful, together,
I keep in mind, what I want a true friend to be.
Someone who proves they are loyal to me
To know that honesty, is part of who they are.
They will travel life's journey with you, no matter how far.
They see you, the real you, the bad and the good,
They know what you are all about, it's understood.
A heart of pure gold, is what you hope to find.
Not an imposter, or the "fool's gold" kind.

Can i ask
a question love smiling
in all honesty
are you real
or has it all been me dreaming
because you're lighting up all the space
residing inside my thoughts
You're beautiful smile
is driving me crazy wishing
that I could kiss you
upon the lips
my dream delight
Or could it be possible
that I am a fallen angel
as you touch me with your grace
healing a miracle
at the hands of love

Feeding our thoughts
Sincerity, Honesty and Truth
Called Constructive Criticism
Striving to be at our best
Helping because of love
Care
Understanding
Motivated to Construct
Mistakes, Errors, Faults
It is okay
We are not perfect
Why use hell
Instead of Condemned?
Hell is Bulls Eye

It’s funny how light
From a source
Can reach across many miles,
Through time even.
That, too, can be said
For bonds or friendship.
Age has no bearing
Sex has no bearing
Distance has no bearing
Just the honesty,
The respect and love
Has bearing on how far
A friendship can go.
Let friendship be light
Never to be extinguished
By thought, but be perpetuated
By natural resonance.

analogy, love, metaphor, relationship,
Who do you think you are?!?
You use your tears like money,
Each one paying for another excuse ...
Lies dripping with feigned empathy,
And staining honesty like blood.
Yet these briny drops fall to me,
Pressed between our empty pages ...
Like a dried rose once given in love, cherished,
Now, left to wither ... thorns and all.

loveheart, heart,
Forever hold these words I say,
let them sleep your heart so deep.
Be you constant at my side, let
not emotions or feelings hide. Be
my conscience of desire, be the
beating of this heart. Let the days
be forever long, the evenings soft
and nights alluring. Let us be in
rhyme with love, sate ourselves
of skins sweet glow, pass the kiss
in honesty, and to the heart bliss
bestow. Take these words, take
them deep, for in my soul you
shall sleep. Forever and a dream
you shall always be.

If you want to follow,
The one is your heart
To share with love and
kindness;
If you want to impress,
Begin with yourself,
To learn honesty and
humbleness;
And if you want to please,
God is the only One
To feel true lasting
Happiness.

A NEW DAY
The start of a brand new day,
Another beginning,
A fresh start in the morning
What will today bring?
Will it bring rags or riches?
Nobody knows for sure.
What unexpected things life brings,
But harmony peace and gentleness,
Who could want more?
Respect, good wishes and kind words,
Is important and we adore.
Gentleness is needed,
And helps you through the day,
Caring and gentle people,
Who have good things to say.
Making a peaceful world,
Is important to us all,
Love, respect and honesty,
We need forever more!

lost love, love
I was a fool
To believe that you loved me
To fall for that cosmic joke
As if I didn't know the punch line
Now as I watch you sleep
Your face has changed
This moment gives birth
To doubt and despair
And I search your face
To find a glimpse
Of the source of my devotion
But no sign of love remains
Clarity offers revelation
I am alone after all
Oddly comforting, though
The honesty of truth

I want to wander through the garden of happiness
Inhale the sweet scent of love
Stroll down the path of kindness
Gaze at the trees of joy swaying above
Meander down to the river of peace
Watch the ripples of compassion flow
Listen to the birds chirping honesty
As the soft wind of humility blows

Pour your heart to the world
Feel those extra ordinary feelings
Pour your heart to the one you love
Receive those blessings
A dream has come true
Is it that the truth
Show yourself,
The truth is a wonderful thing
As it puts things in perspective
Honesty is a priceless thing
As it shows who you are
Love is a two way ingredient
As it acknowledges what you are capable of
Show yourself,
Pour your resources into your hands
Feel the air
Pour your tears into the sky
Feel the vibration of the universe
A dream has been manifested
Is it that the truth?
Show yourself.

Ageing and poetry
Both teachers of my soul
Priorities and values learnt
Understanding self , feeling whole
Knowing the power of kindness
The clarity and strength of simplicity
Having greater appreciation in life
Holding dear what is most important to me
Embracing love and the ones l love
Voicing positives from my heart
Respectful of honesty and humility
Knowing the positivity and healing humour imparts
Life is not always easy
A venture of highs and lows
I have learnt to both cope and celebrate
Navigating lifes ebbs and flows
