Sorry I have been absent as of late.  I hope that many of you, my poetic friends, remember me.  I have been so wrapped up in finishing my poetry book and working on my website.  I recently received my Library of Congress # and am waiting on my ISBN # then I'll be done.  It has occupied so much of my time.  My apologies to all of you.  As soon as I wrap this up I'll be a postin' fool again.  Miss ya'll.
Hope you enjoy this latest offering...

Sweet Spring Of Life Loved

Such love never known
Trespassed existence void of validation
at the very whisper of your name
upon that sweet Spring breeze.

I loved you before I beheld you.
The very idea of you laced
my slumber in your sweet embrace,

until the waking hour found me
content in all things and
conspiring to quicken the kiss
Delivered upon the wings
of love’s begotten dreams.

And now, myriad days
have surrendered to the stars
you so deftly painted upon
our evening’s sky.

Yet, I find that,
In the midst
of this winter’s night,
as I lie beside you,
they burn ever brighter.

Always new,
your eternal flame
brushed across my Heavens,
warms the existential spirit
once wanting,
now communed,
in this sweet Spring
of life loved.

Oh my - breakfast in bed for you tomorrow

Beautiful for the lucky lady. Hope you enjoyed your day together.

Love this Kevin. I am just getting ready for work...but I had to comment on this before I rush out the door. This is absolutely beautiful. Been missing your work my friend. It is so good to see you posting again. Your poems are a wonderful way to end my days...or begin them...as todays case might be. LOL! Thank-you my friend.
