drifting thoughts
dried flowers floating
in the bath
love/sex
Sonata
moonlight sonata —
my shadow undresses
against the wall
Dancing
dancing
around the room —
unspoken words
December
almost december —
missing the taste of summer
berries and sweet love
Waves
oceans away
watching the waves of patience
rolling, rolling in
Love Songs
love songs –
one small bird singing
from the porch rail
Sugary
sunshine kisses
the sugary breasts
of mountain tops
Lover
the lover returns
tips of tall grasses waver
in the wind’s caress
Fortune
feeling the lines
across your palms
my good fortune
Breeze
thoughts of you
a warm breath of a breeze
on my neck
Zeros
zeros and ones
the modern love note is
lacking in perfume
Appetizer
appetizer —
she’s licking tortilla salt
off her lips
Daisy
she is a daisy
forever pressed in pages
of his memories
Wedding
outdoor wedding
unwanted advances
of dark clouds
Fingers
my eyes remember
the taste of the sound of the
touch of your fingers
Slowly
slowly waking up
the sun unwraps the darkness
a lover’s warm kiss
Shore
play in my warm surf
write your words in the sunset
sandy shore of me
Aftertaste
our last kiss goodbye
a taste of bad wine with a
hint of good riddance
Glow
love floats a canoe
on a lake of sunset glass
ripples on red glow
Snagged
his jagged edges
snagged the softness of her soul
pulling her to him
