I listen to the nora jones
imagining your face enthralled
thinking that I sing like that?
and loving you for just the thought.

I see you in an apron tied
wishing I had crafted bow--
the pride of me upon your neck
the scent of us upon your breath
and whiskers that remain unshaved
greet me with the joy of that
the thought of you in mind...

Nudge your butt
from the bucket
and playful flicks
from fingertip
waterpark
from just a lark
teasing you by pout
of lips--
I want to greet you at the door
of a place we both call home
and just the very thought of that
makes me be a good girl now...

Watching you in sweaty jeans
serious intensity
telling me how it should be
where the sun will swell the crop
as you hammer in the stakes
of tomatoes growing tall--
I love you
watch you
plant our faith
I hear the church bells
thinking harp
as the sun plays on your skin
I love to watch you stretch--
I'm caught
a bit of charcoal washed
in rough
with creases prominent
by knead...

smiling wrinkles
of my thoughts
and light
is just
a
touch of us
dabbing at the grays on rust--
picking up
the blues of hues
where life remains untouched.

Let me bring you some iced tea.
Let me wrinkle, bruise the leaves
of the mint that we will plant
in a distant corner--thought--
a place where mint can still be stealth--
and wishes are a complement
to tones of white on black made gray--

I plant the thought
of us and pray
We grow these smiles
upon my face...

BIG OLE FRIGGEN MOTH *SIGH*

(see me mothysig)


You're the best I've ever felt ...
it's so wrong not to be with you.
It's getting harder to stay away,
it stops my heart just to be with you.

friendship is unnecessary...like philosophy...like art
it has no survival value...rather it is one of those things that gives value to survival...

OHHH, how I know this, Karen. My Love pleasures in getting me out in public places where I have to be a "good girl" and then doing one of his big exaggerated stretches  that I love so much. (Well, I'd better hush now......the smiles are getting pretty big on my face about now!!)

Hugs and thanks, Karen!!

Your writes are so full of images
I do not need x-ray vision to see through your poems for all we need is spelled out and clear just in a different light then one might expect.

So many voices raising;
All of them are praising.
Me too!!
Just an elegant expression of love and sensuality.  KJ

Through rubble and trouble and dark of night
The yawn of a dawn will hasten the light

This is the way it is supposed to be - a little Norah, Alicia Keys, Dianna Krall, and a lot of tender loving going on.  Ummmm, this was yummy.
