Poetry is the sublime distillation
of words and thought
coming together
in perfection

Pride and ego in your misunderstandings
The distance will grow and be parallel,
Bitterness will fill the gap.

Your beautiful eyes are my jewelled crown,
In their depth, all my stars fall down.
A universe spun in sapphire gleam,
Where love walks softly through every dream.

Your darling lips—my sweetest cure,
A balm of flame, both fierce and pure.
With every kiss, the night turns gold,
And time forgets how to grow old.

Your gaze, a spell that bends the air,
Turns silence into sacred prayer.
And when you smile, the heavens sigh—
A blush of dawn in a twilight sky.

Let kingdoms fall, let empires cease,
If I have your breath, I have my peace.
For no throne shines, no fate is sure,
But your lovely lips—my only cure.

So wear my soul like silken gown,
Your eyes, my fate—my pride, my crown.
And in your arms, I seek no more,
For love like yours is worth the war.

small talk poetry

grateful for small mercies
a half song

forever left
unfinished...

a zig zag road
******* in knots

switchbacks
dead ends

a long straight
into the distance

one foot
then another.

having arrived
sure you make ripples
and ride the ripples of others

soon the pond settles down
full acceptance-
the flat calm of participation.
