Now that the DNC is over, I can finally stop putting in outrageously long overtime hours at work. Dijya miss me?  

Mike

-to touch her body-
These words I have carved
In the rock of the mountain
Near river's fallen ribbon
Are for you.
They speak in the language of trees and earth,
Trial and birth,
Hatred and mirth.

These songs I have laced
In the leaves of the trees
In an early autumn breeze
Are for you.
Shadow-scattered petals like flowers dying
In frosting sand
Under the sun's lost care.


These hands I have used
To replace the aura
Of everyday objects
Are for you.
So that poetry may live with every touch
To your unwaiting, wanting, glowing body.
You are a star, woman heat. Tremble.

did i miss ya? uummmmmm...i'm think'n  
These songs I have laced
In the leaves of the trees
In an early autumn breeze
Are for you.
Shadow-scattered petals like flowers dying
In frosting sand
Under the sun's lost care.


These hands I have used
To replace the aura
Of everyday objects
Are for you.
So that poetry may live with every touch
To your unwaiting, wanting, glowing body.
You are a star, woman heat. Tremble.

There are places inside our souls -
that have never been touched.
There are places inside our hearts -
that need to be loved this much.

I am glad to see you baaaaaaaaaacccccckkkk!
This is a wonderful work of joy.
Has the essence of being in touch with someone dear
written all over it !

Are for you.
Shadow-scattered petals like flowers dying
In frosting sand
Under the sun's lost care.'


Lovely !

so sensual...you seem like quite the romantic.  I love your style, it reminds me of the kind I write whenever I have the gift of falling in love.  beautiful poem
