1.
The Garden of Roses
    for Debra

walk with me
through the roses in the garden
and I will tell you dreams I've had
about the times when You and I
through a garden of roses
walk and talk of dreams

2.
My Lightest Touch
    for Debra

I'll give to you my lightest touch
Our bodies barely pressed
That you may feel my long dark hair
Upon your soft fair breast
And I will kiss you through the night
And breathe my loving words
'til welcome comes the sunrise
And the singing of the birds

3.
Muse

My poems come from a rainy day
Or an emptying bottle of wine
The muses kiss me with rhyming words
Or the perfectly metered line
I thank them with a glance to the sky
Or a sip from the fruit of the vine


These three were written after drinking a very large bottle of cheap wine.

Sing while you may
  -The Prophet Qa'sepel

Your pain is for you alone, As it is, As it was, As it will be forever, Amen
   -The Prophet Qa'sepel

Now put that bottle down and go and show Debra where you heart is.  You show too much love for her to hide it behind spirits.  Lovely sentiments and I'll bet even better yet without the wine.
