All I need to know
Tomorrow shall bring
A joyous occasion.
Patiently I wait
Walking through time
In this labyrinth
Only the soul knows
Fly like an eagle
Carry my soul
Unfold my heart
In harmonic bursts
Magical moments
Finding love
Always on my mind
My beloved friend
When faith returns
The way we were
Together as one
Dreamers
Love is like the rose
Heralding the day
Simply love
Just you and me
In a perfect storm
A calming light came to me
As I awoke
A vision of pure light.

A flick of light within my soul
becomes a beacon for my life
wherein I join with You in Christ
free from normal life of strife.
Today breaks boldly clear and bright
A bastion holds me safe from sin
and fills my heart with calming Voice
to sooth and hold me close within.
How grateful I become for You
who teaches that Your love may cope
with those who challenge You exist,
persuaded by Your voice of hope.

love, romancewords,
His words like kisses, soft and light,
caress her rose-stained smile,
a heathered breeze on summer nights,
versed whispers to beguile.
With tenderness and silken brush,
sweet inklings of a scene
unfolds impressions, paints a blush,
she reads his thoughts between.
Upon his rune her heartbeat trips
through poppy fields in flower,
to golden sands where romance grips
in moonlit midnight hour.
The calming lilt of lapping tide
gives cadence to their love,
entwined as couplets, passions ride
‘neath liquid stars above.
Held apart by many a mile
mere dreams are hers this night,
his words alone caress her smile
with kisses, soft and light.

angel, love,
This in the greyish clouds I see
My lover's eyes like a phoenix flame
It's honeyed glow melted into me
When the mist drifted upon the plains.
A presence of calming reasssurance
That I'd suffer not this life alone
A whisper of hope,a sweet entrance
You've given in this life forlorn.
Each day brings its thorn and gloom
Each day a tear,each day a feared
Wretched,joyless,boundless doom
When mute is the springtime air.
But you've armed my heart with joy
And lipped my soul with grace
When the world sought to destroy
Your love beaming down my face.

life, lovetime, time,
The patterns of my life
Sifted through your heart.
The calling of the wind
Gives you a place to start.
The crashing of the tide,
The bubbles of the surf.
The roughness of my fingers
After time kissing with the earth.
The golden ray of eyesight,
And the shield black with pain.
The rumble of the thunder
Then its calming, soothing rain.
The time you kissed my eyelids
As night turned into day.
The way that Hamlet felt
When his Ophelia sank away.
You taught my heart to sing,
And my thoughts to find their place,
Then you sang yourself to sleep
Still creating time and space.

poems,
Violets bring healing to the soul,
Colours care for the sick,
Like Florence Nightingale.
Her amethyst fragrance,
For the imagination,
Creativity, wisdom, dignity,
Pride and peace,
Spiritually calming emotions
Humbling in nature,
Brightening up rooms,
As the Lady with the lamp,
Nursed wounded soldiers,
Velvet scented petals!
Meditate her deep blue,
Serenity and tranquillity
Sanctuary for love,
White for innocence,
Pioneering blooms,
Velvet heart shaped leaves
Captivating and beautiful
Flowers,
Medication for life.

Aroma for life,
Pleasantly pleasing
Arousing perfumery,
Fragrance soothing,
Silence and serenity,
Calming!
My sweet
Scented elegance,

Taste of your kisses,
Romancing invitations
Messages flowering,
Attracting and desiring,
Sending letters,
To your one sweet love.

Stillness seduces serenity
amid fresh blue sky reflection
an encapsulation of mind
romancing her through time
toes dipped in calming waters
filled with reds and greens
lotus, love, light
looking back to see
warmth played upon the skin
in more than a soothing touch
a kiss to the lips
notes of a symphony ringing
in orbs of hope and sentiment
laying down upon pillows of night
in the third hour
of the thirty-third minute
we stir, alive
cradling, arms of a lover
life slowly moving with tide
the breath of tomorrow awaits a whisper
the flower she sways in the moonlight
the lioness sleeps inside

love,
At once my thoughts be still
To hear your voice so calming
Your song a melody
All but late in passing
Through my eye you run
From last to first return
If only gone was time
I'd be your arms surrounding
For every day is turning
And every night so long
Forgotten is no option
You'll be my home, my song

Rainbow - hues of love's presence
Drizzles of warmth and joy
Contentment of heart
Calming the ragged edge
Leavening excitement
Of all but the real
Circle's half - is subtly whole
Seen in a flash- lighting the soul
Remnants of delight's flight lingering
Poignancy wraps tightly
Our ode to love's stanza
Ribbons of the misty arc- adorn the day

An Arc to Heaven
Peace flows over my body
In calming, cooling waves.
Your words carry me to shore
Exciting, igniting my spirit
With sweet revelations of love.
My lonely heart blossoms
Slowly as dew drops awaken
With tender rhetoric shared.
They blaze, amaze my mind
With a peerless brilliance
As your verses elate my being
They delight, requite my most
Secret desires in poetic kinship
Which inspires, retires my soul
To soar high amidst the heavens.

imagination, inspirational, love, passion, time, visionary,
Seeping heavy under my skin
Shivering inception
Calming from its wisping caress
Tenderly soothing
Reaching with tendril like fingers
Lithe and satin
Permeating through my veins
Enveloping essence
Taming the maelstrom within me
Purity embracing
Divulging the rains of promise
Cleansing shame
Defusing against the flow of time
Forever young
Standing open in naked candor
Unselfish passion

Sometimes a hug is needed
To dry up someone’s tears
Sometimes a hug is needed
To calm a person’s fears
Sometimes a calming touch is needed
From a friend or stranger too
Sometimes the hardest words to hear
Are the ones “I love you”
Sometimes your path gets dark and drear
And your days pass by in no hurry
Nobody is around to comfort you
All is left to do is worry
The best of days can be forgotten
When the tears come falling down
All you can think of is grief of the past
All that will fit is a frown…
Will some one please just give me a hug
And tell me they love me so?
This is one time that sometime is needed
Just hug me and let your love show!?

Your soft blue eyes
My invaluable prize
Your rain blue sapphires
My hearts will, conspires
Your sacred wishing wells
My love found, in your spells
Your calming reflective storms
My emotions turn to you in swarms
Your lenses of perfect cerulean sight
My resistance, not given in the slight
Your diamonds in the planets of snow
My affections infinitude made to show
Your crystal filled orbs of cobalt & indigo
My dreams fulfilled by those you bestow

Autumn rain..
Soothes the soul
Gentle rain tapping against window
Calming sounds of leaves rustling
Crispy and inviting
Winds chanting magnificent tones
A slight whistle
Music to one's ears
The eyes see
A breathtaking view of exquisite beauty
Trees
Leaves
A vivid burst of autumn colors
The sky crying tears of raindrops
As Mother Nature expresses herself to us
Tears of rain of which reveals joy
With her joy and unconditional love for us
She can share her etheric beauty
As she always does with blessing us all with Nature

Something calming, something erotic,
Hot Sideritis tea in a gleaming teacup
That sings sweetly to me, of lands exotic.
Seeing all the other white villas in Greece,
Lying still on an angelic rug with you.
Listening to the great music of Vangelis!
Evermore,
Panagiota

happiness, heaven, spiritual,
we woke up early one morn, ego shorn
it felt as though we were in form reborn
nodes within stirred, boundaries blurred
our head and heart, with love concurred
let me be in the heavens, where bells sound
calming energies, can’t hear my heart pound
I affirm it is nirvana, here within all knowing
reaffirming our love, one that keeps growing
a promise kept by me, with all of my devotion
quenched and non-discreet, infinite emotion

anger, bereavement, depression, endurance, introspection, love, peace,
Are life’s griefs to stay like set cement?
Or drift away, like any passing day?
How can I be sure how much to endure?
Before I let it go, and let the future flow?
With a silent moment’s thought of things taught
A calming peace is caught, only if it’s bought.
With reverent intent, remorse is spent.
Let go and move forward with good intent.

books,
I
love
old books.
The mold smell,
the tattered pages,
the strange way writers penned stories.
Ever since a child I loved the feel of an old book.
I search adding to my collection of covers crumbling and pages yellow hued.
There
is
nothing
more calming
than decaying books.
I save them from garbage heaps,
I give beloved books a home to rest in old age,
and I love touching their withered pages, caressing words written so long ago.

nature,
On days where life feels too heavy,
Just needing a wee break from home,
I seek solace along the coast of the Solway Firth,
A natural place of beauty, I love to endlessly roam.
Walking along the dark earthy sand,
It scratches the soles of my feet,
I'm at peace and at one with nature,
At this wild and wonderful retreat.
So blessed to have this beauty spot,
Not even five minutes from my town,
A place to escape and be truly free
Whenever I'm feeling down.
The calming rhythm of the murky grey tide,
Helps me to relax and unwind,
As I feel the fresh salty breeze,
Cleansing my soul and mind.

blessing, heart, how i feel, inspiration, inspirational love, meaningful, sensual,
Gentle whisper of a caress
Softly touching, intimately
Soothing my worries, calming
Any anxiety with this hope
Inspired by a moment’s fulfillment
Satisfaction birthed within
A spiritual connection between
Two hearts, two souls, two feelings
Warming the way for every limitation
To become a fire for more joy
More sweet inspiration, imagination
More of every dream and fantasy
Dancing through the mind that
Feels such creative insights, brilliant
Revelations discovered inside
The one who gives unconditionally
And lives with the assurance
That they know God’s will for them

best friend, emotions, feelings, i love you, love,
Innocence follows you through life,
yet you're as sharp as any knife.
And you have a calming effect,
polishing dreams dimmed by neglect.
Your compassion cushions my falls
as you breach all my inner walls.
And restoring lost hopes and pride,
you put confidence in my stride.
Your smile melts my sadness within,
allowing my smile to begin.
And your faith in me gets me through;
if I lost you, what would I do?
You're forgiving, patient, and kind,
virtues that aren't easy to find.
And this extraordinary blend;
defines my lover and best friend.

caregiving, fantasy, love, marriage, romance, romantic,
If it be my wish
I'd endeavour
to maketh this heavenly
hunger satisfying kiss
to last forever.
Her welcoming warm arms
to provide sanctuary and safety
that soothes the inner child
I Lose myself in her soft caress
and harbour my heart and soul
She is the sculptress
and I the thing she moulds.
Her tender love to be liken a flowing
calming river
that flows with such invigorating emotion
deep inside of me
Her fragrance as sweet as the honeysuckle
that attracts the flirtatious honey bee.
One love one heart one dream
one flesh until we meet see our final sunset
and take
our last breaths
and rest together
on some grassy land
after our mortal death,

natural disasters, nature, prayer,
The swirling wind to touch the ground,
A sudden energy outbursts,
Yet its eye cannot see the found.
Above, a beauty to behold,
As it blindly wends its path,
Its wake of destruction unfolds.
Listen! A child’s voice speaks of love,
Calling out to the angels there,
Mercy’s prayer to powers above.
Surrounded by a violent rage
A child knelt in a calming peace,
Winds holding life within their sage.
