This poem grew and was almost completely formed while I was preparing my evening meal ~ I do not think that the two events were actually related.
Love Letters - 30 Mar 14
Reaching out to the stars
Each one is a Love letter
From you
Filling my sky
Drifting into my Heart
Filling it completely
With your words
Though I have to admit that feeding my Love does have a certain appeal.
Because these poems are so short I decided that I would offer two today.
The first one is a Senryū which arrived a few nights ago and the second one, a little Love song, was birthed last night.
Saxophone [Senryū] - 26 Mar 14
A saxophone calls
Into the night ~ only owls
Answer the message
Message On The Wind - 29 Mar 14
Whisper my name
Into the wind
Ask the wind to take it
To the one I Love
I hope you enjoy them.
A little poem with a fairly large dose of "limite surréaliste" to it.
Thunder - 28 Mar 14
The skies are full
With the dreams
And memories
Of a near forgotten
Time drawn between
A wish and a hoped-for
Kiss
The spring is flowing
Sweet water rises
Washing our time
Filling our Love words
With the
Thunder in our Hearts
One day I may write something with an even larger dose.
A Love song around the theme of waiting and being ready to move into the next stage.
Hours - 27 Mar 14
Remembered hours
Time spent together
Shared thoughts
How fast it went
Hypnotic sparkle
On the water
Time slows as I wait
Knowing you return
All our future hours
Waiting for us to enter
And wrap ourselves
In our Love
Always ready ...
A sad little tale which grew just a short time after the last poem was birthed, the mood is totally different.
Where ~ When - 26 Mar 14
There is a time
When old memories
Fade
The mind hopes
For new
Shapes and thoughts
To fill the void
But sometimes
Just sometimes
This does not happen
And the emptiness
Is all there is
Dream on into
The memory-less
World
Hoping
A change at least in part, to show that I can do it.
Another Love song ~ this one with a little twist.
Past And Future - 26 Mar 14
Remembering
All the times and places
We have been
Remembering
All the special things
We have shared
Remembering
All that is to come
We will be
Remembering
How our Hearts dance
Together forever
Remembering all times, now and forever.
I saw a passing reference to winter and that inspired this Love song.
Seasons In A Moment - 25 Mar 14
Winter
Has one last play
Cold winds
Throw cold rain
Against my window
Here
Inside the room
Warm breath
Cold pleasing shivers
Against me
Love’s summer
Held in your arms
Heart to Heart
We kiss
Through all our years
Love songs just seem to flow from me recently ~ happily.
This is a Love song which grew in the mid-afternoon and only needed a couple of words to be added to make it complete.
Take My Hand - 23 Mar 14
On such a day as this
We met and talked
How could we have guessed
That the little games
We played
Could change our lives
In such a special way
Let us see
What the next step will be
Where it will take us
So now
Take my hand
Let us wander and
Explore the Universe
I Love the way these things come together.
Another little Love song ~ I do not know what else to say so ...
You Sang Me - 23 Mar 14
You sang my Heart
Into Love
Opened the doors
Threw the windows wide
Showed me
Where I could be and
Where you wanted me to be
You sang me
Into your Heart
Showed me the wonders
Of you …
In that moment
I knew
Where I wanted to be
I really don't think I need say anything further.
I read something in a tweet saying "you broke my heart" but I felt that this was not the message I wanted to give so I composed this poem ~ yes, another Love song.
You - 21 Mar 14
You broke
Into my Heart
Changed my feelings
Unexpectedly
You entered
My mind
Shifted my thoughts
Wonderfully
Now all
I can do
Is Love you
Eternally
I could not keep away from Love songs for long.
A new offering filled with "limite surréaliste", rather more than I was expecting. I am not going to try to explain what this is about.
Confusion - 21 Mar 14
Do not take me literally
For I do not know
Who I am or where I go
I have seen
I think I have seen
An ancient land
Or is it
A future world
Filled with colour
Only seen in dream
Or the realm
Of induced haze
Show me
The worlds
Of me
Sing my song
I leave it to you to tell me what it is about.
Inspired by seeing an image of the Moon and, in part, by a memory of a Carole King song of which this is the title line. Another little Love song grew.
So Far Away - 19 Mar 14
I watch the sky
The one over me
Is different to the
One over you
But the same Moon
Sails through both
And she watches
As we share the thoughts
Of Love
Even though we are
So far away
From each other
Distance is overcome by the mental connection.
A small Love song for the offering today.
Answer - 19 Mar 14
Our minds touched
Asked a few simple questions
Satisfied with the answers
They joined
Souls answered
We have Love
Love songs come in different sizes but all are filled with Love.
I am not certain about from where the inspiration for this came but I am happy that it did.
New Light - 18 Mar 14
An ancient mystery
Shrouded in crystal cloud
Illuminated from within
Soft glow
I see you
Though the mystery
Is still old
You bring a new world
You shine your light
Through your Love
Another of the little Love songs.
Taking the sensuous feel of the last poem just a little further.
Warm Skin - 16 Mar 14
Cool breeze
On a cold night
All unfelt
As we wrapped
Ourselves
In each other
Warm skin
Pressed against
Warm skin
Wondering whether I should take this even further and how much further.
This is a response of sorts to the last "Dance" poem and I felt it appropriate to take it a little further and make it a bit more sensuous.
Slow Dance - 15 Mar 14
Music plays softly in my mind
Slow sensuous dance
Our bodies rub together
Merge sweetly
Blend with the music
Music fills our world
Soft gentle rhythm
Ripples through us
Taking us beyond
Into the Ocean of we
Maybe it can go a little further ...
This poem changed direction just after I started to write and I feel that the result is better than anticipated.
Mind Wander - 15 Mar 14
In a moment of wakefulness
Mind journeys through places
Unguided
Where the fully awake mind
Does not go alone
I met you there
At a time I needed a friend
You gave me friendship
You gave me more
You gave me you
Wandering together
In a space we have made ours
Nevermore alone
We journey together
Guiding each other forever
Another Love song with some extra touches.
This poem called out to be written in the early afternoon ~ I have looked at it repeatedly and find that I do not want to change anything.
Planes Of Time - 13 Mar 14
The points where
The planes of time
Intersect
Is where you will find me
Look over your shoulder
You will see me
Smiling
Inviting a kiss
Reaching for you
Tenderly
I find that the poems which seem to write themselves work more smoothly than others.
Especially if they are Love songs.
Inspired by a Rumi quote ~ I felt the message was interesting enough to build a poem around it.
Water Of Life - 13 Mar 14
Water of life
Flowing from Love
To Love
Eternally
We drink from that stream
Filling our Hearts
Flooding us with the Love
Making us complete
Water of Love
Flowing from Heart
To Heart
Endlessly
It is a beautiful message.
In the very early hours another Love song grew.
Wind Dancer - 12 Mar 14
Feeling the winds
Dance
Cavort around us
Shake our dreams
Bring new ideas
Carry your Love to me
I whisper into the wind
My words are taken
To you
In the music
Of the wind
We dance
Enjoying the dance.
Another Love song ~ I enjoy them too much to stop writing them.
Wanted Words - 11 Mar 14
Waiting for a word
A gesture
Hinted sign of Love
As I sit and watch
For your arrival
I can hear your voice
Whispering my name
I can feel your fingertips
Write your words of Love
Across my skin
I want your words
In any form you wish
Offer them to me
I am listening to you
With all my senses
I was going to write something really different but, it didn't feel right and I actually felt really uncomfortable with it. One day, when I feel brave, I might publish it here or on Dolphin Visions.
This little Love song entered my mind just before midnight and was completed at that time.
Tender - 09 Mar 14
Tender embrace
You held me
In a way I never knew before
Your gentle touch
Thrilled me
Shivers flowed through me
I held you
Your breath blew
Over my neck
We fit together in ways
We never knew possible
Tender Love
Without wanting to seem too repetitious, I Love writing Love songs.
Memories built in "limite surréaliste" form.
Old Memories Reborn - 09 Mar 14
Softness reformed
Taking memories renewing
Reshaping them for us
Remaking them as us
The shadows we were
Now dance in a new light
Sing a new song
In our rebirth
Not too strong an "limite surréaliste" but just enough to make it interesting.
Late night thoughts, my mind wandering, thoughts settle on a Beautiful place.
Journey In Love - 08 Mar 14
Sitting dreaming
You have entered my thoughts
Set your Passion flames
To consume my fears
Open me to Love
Take me
To where we want to be
Take we
On a journey
Beyond
I really like ~ even Love ~ the places my mind takes me.
This is a "limite surréaliste" poem with just a slight hint of Love song.
Walking In Starlight - 06 Mar 14
Formless space
Stars shine teasing
Open time and shaping
Clouds of empty dream
Taking the emptiness
Reforming it to our wants
Building a pathway
Out of dream
Midnight gardens
We can see
We can both be
Walking in starlight
I like the feel of this poem. It rather fits my personal mood.
Just a little Love song.
Your Hands - 05 Mar 14
In your hands
You hold the only treasure
I can offer you
My Love
Through all our Eternities
Through everything
I do not think that anything more needs to be said on this poem.
Another poem which was prompted by Muse as I was trying to sleep. I never argue though, I have lost too many poems that way.
I Love You - 03 Mar 14
In the night
Amid the sounds
Of rain on the window
Your voice
Whispering
I Love you
Tears of Joy
Fill my eyes
As I echo you
I Love you
So, another late-night Love song ~ works for me.
I felt inspired to write this after hearing, or maybe mishearing, something in a DVD I was watching.
Key - 05 Mar 14
The key that opens
The golden gates
Of the palace of
Eternity
Love turns the key
Light shines into the dark
You and I
Enter a new world
The palace
Is light
And we are filled
With the Love
Another Love song ~ kind of, anyway.
This poem grew when I was in bed trying to get to sleep but Muse would not let me ~ she insisted that I made notes on my phone.
This is the result.
Sensuous - 02 Mar 14
Sliding
A silken shadow
Slips over me
Sensuously
Warm dark
Welcoming
With her touch
Reaching
Under the folds
Of fabric
Her fingers find me
I considered taking this further but felt that leaving it hanging would create a better feeling of the sensuous nature and would allow for a possible sequel at some point.
A simple statement ~ nothing more needs to be said I think.
Boundless - 02 Mar 14
In the moments
Of uncertainty
One thing is clear
My Love for you
Is boundless
Would you agree?
A sensuous game played without sight ~ rather fun.
Hand Dancing - 01 Mar 14
Eyes closed
Allowing other senses
To show what
Happens
When four hands
Dance
Together
Without music
You
Me
Entwined
In a sensuous
Slow
Writhing
Dance
Try it somewhen.
