twilight touches my arm
in a swimming pool sort of way
smirking ocean waves
drawing me once more
into a world beyond

there was no disappointment here
only an open door
and a page with distinguishing
character upon my heart

there you stand, in the distance

ingeniously laid out
free lancing footsteps of
aqua marinade
remarkably unraveling time

a moment in silence ensued

greenish tinged skin
coverlet of immovable filament
embroiled in physical shape, the
sound of your voice
assuming intimacy, far better then
i could imagine

representing all sides of
unrelenting suspense
focused and multi tasking
could i? could i take that first step?
towards you..
you smiled, as if to say
the doors open

night time’s camera
bobbing a moment
touching my spirit
so perfectly timed
like overwhelmings odds
standing at attention
for us….

what, in utter silence
could be more alive
then the groundswells of nature
so perfecting reflecting
some chosen moment
in my life, in yours?

i examine the slightest tinge
of this granite twilight
rising in intensity
we have sacrificed enough
haven’t we?

now, all we see, is predawn
light tinted across an eastern sky
our eastern sky
where we embrace
and climb

flooding with sea water
gradual wakefulness
beckons to plow
the uttermost inter personal
self…..
and it is then, we realize
what everyone searches for
why we are chosen
what we desire..

pressing my nose against
a moist monday morning
window
i realize some promise of
life’s expose~
it is the dreams & the dreamer
that keep our
breath unimaginable

for that one moment
held close to my breast
lifetime smiles

Aqua marinade...

Dang...

There you are, girl.  Where've you been?  I've been missing you.

I keep a fragrance bottle my

The richness of your poetic thoughts enriches me~

rising in intensity'


Such original thoughts sprinkled through this magnificent piece ... *gift* my day~
