Story In Flowers

This is a sort of "found Love song" ~ you will understand what I mean when you read it.





Story In Flowers  -  24 Aug 14

Ancient flowers
Pressed between the pages
Of a forgotten book
Telling a Love story
Of two Lovers
Who were
But are no more

Lost story
Inscribed in pencil
Between the petals
No names
Just words
You ~ Me
Love





Maybe this was we in a previous life.

Cold Moon

This seems a strange poem to write in August but it has been unusually cold recently ~ so I offer this.





Cold Moon  -  23 Aug 14

Chill wind
Wraps her icy fingers
Around the sliver
Of the Old Moon
Frost prepares
His cold dance
To leave his
Crystalline footprints
In the dark
And the wind
Still blows cold
Out of a cloudless sky





Another weather inspired poem.

Unique [Acrostic]

Playing with words again in an acrostic ~ this one with a special message.





Unique [Acrostic]  -  21 Aug 14

Unequalled in all the Universes
No one else can match your
Individuality ~ I have
Quested across time
Until I found you
Everywhere





For that special one.

Quest In Time

A little Love song with a simple statement.





Quest In Time  -  21 Aug 14

Looking for you
All through my lives
And through the ages
I knew
One day I would find you
And I would be complete





Completion ~ best thing there is.

Smiles

A Love song with more than a hint of Lust song.





Smiles  -  20 Aug 14

Wicked twinkle
Lips quivering
With anticipation
Expectation
Your smile grew
Infected me
So we locked
Our smiles
Together





I rather like these combination songs.

Remember Again

A Love song with secret depths.





Remember Again  -  19 Aug 14

Taste of a rose
Petals slowly unfurling
Releasing perfume
Reminds me of you

Taste of you
Your lips inviting
Eyes hold me
Fire the memory

In those shared moments
I shall remember again
Memories remain fresh
Because ~ YOU





Remembering ... happy sigh.

Eternal Love

Another Love song ~ better read than explained methinks.





Eternal Love  -  17 Aug 14

Dawn
Two Souls joined
Entwined
Intertwined
Made an agreement

Midday
Together again
Forever and always
Wrapped
In Love

Evening
Surrounded by candles
Listening to wind and ocean
Whispering
Like us

Night
No such thing
For two Souls
Deeply
In Love




Interesting how these poems just seem to flow and trancend time.

Ribbon Moon

Another offering in the Five Thousand Miles sequence of poems.





Ribbon Moon  -  16 Aug 14

Ribbon Moon
Painted from horizon
To me
Across the waves

I watch the shimmering
Ribbon as it dances
For me
Under the Moon glow sky

Listening I hear the words
Spoken to me ~ this is your path
Take it and you can travel the
Five thousand miles





You don't think I am getting obsessed with Five Thousand Miles ~ do you?

Dance To The Moon

A little song just to celebrate Love.





Dance To The Moon  -  16 Aug 14

The velvet Moons of seasons past
Slumber in our memories
Phantom images of tides
Frozen in a land-locked sea

We had danced through nights
When the music had stopped
We continued and kept the rhythm
Flowing for our pleasure

Music of the spheres played on
Into our Eternity taking our steps
From now to forever
Bliss Eternal





Dance on Lover.

Five Thousand Whispers

Another in the Five Thousand Miles series with a little twist.





Five Thousand Whispers  -  16 Aug 14

I felt you
Thinking about me
Across the miles
Your words clear
In my mind
Five thousand miles
Is but a whisper away
Our whispers
We always hear





Though the message of the poem is still clear.

Chill Sun

An evening poem with a hint of Love song in there.





Chill Sun  -  14 Aug 14

Layer upon layer
Cloud wrapped around
Chill sun
Washed with random rain
Light breeze
Rattles the window
Invites my eyes
Outside
Looking at the sun
In his warm cloak

Evening draws around us
Colours the cloak
Rich orange
First colour of night





Just a hint but getting warm is important.

This is post number 1000 to Dolphin Muse.

No Boundaries

A declaration about play-space.





No Boundaries  -  13 Aug 14

No boundaries
Open flight over uncharted
Wilderness
In dream space
We drew for ourselves
Creating a place
Where we could play
Without boundaries





The only way to play.

Forgive Me

This poem asked to be written, I have no real idea where it came from but it is not from my life at the moment.





Forgive Me  -  12 Aug 14

I dared to reach out
Stretched my hand to you
Offered friendship and more
But
You turned away
Did not even bother
To answer my words
My prayers
So I turned inside
Wrapped my Heart
In a tear-stained cloth
And pretended
That I did not care
Forgive me





Perhaps the origin will become clear at some point.

Queen's Moon

A gentle Love song.





Queen's Moon  -  12 Aug 14

Delicately touching
The hands of the Lady
Smoothes my wrinkled brow
Her subtle beauty
Wrapped in Moonlight
Edged in silver
Lights the night
Lights the day
Lights my life





I was going to refer to this poem as a delicate Love song.

Water Theme

Playing with the concept and remembering.





Water Theme  -  11 Aug 14

Between the showers
Dodge the drops
Walking beside the river
To where
Water pours free
Drink

Ocean’s roar
Carried by the wind
Wakes all five senses
Reminds the body
Of what we are
Where home lies





Another journey to collect drinking water inspired this poem.

Open Messages

Another Love  song with an invitation.





Open Message  -  09 Aug  14

An open book
On the table
Words indicated
With a paper marker
I Love you

An open door
Near the table
Unspoken words
Need not be said
Come, see me





How a book and a door can be used to convey a message and an invitation.

Candlelight [Acrostic]

Playing with words again in another acrostic.





Candlelight [Acrostic]  -  08 Aug 14

Crystal lit
Amber incense drifts
Now fills my thoughts
Dreaming with you
Lifts me
Eternal
Light from candles
Illuminates our Hearts
Gives meaning
Heightens my awareness of your
True beauty





One of many and more to come, I should think.

Continuous Movement

A Love song with which to dance along.





Continuous Movement  -  07 Aug 14

Continuous movement
Stars dancing
Æon long pirouette
Moves us
Holding hands to guide
Intricate steps
Smiles of encouragement
Sparkles of Love
Within our eyes
We dance





Feel the movement.

Tasting You

A Lust song and a Love song all mixed into one.





Tasting You  -  06 Aug 14

A taste of you
Stronger than any wine
Or spirits
Sipped slowly
From your cup
Never leaves a hangover
Always intoxicating
Brings nothing but Joy
With Love





A drink I would happily take.

Moon Dark Ocean

A song which grew at the time of the New Moon.





Moon Dark Ocean  -  05 Aug 14

Looking out
Over the waves
Watching the stars
Dance to the music
Played through
The Universes
In dark of day
Dark of night
The dance goes on
Dark Moon
Hides with the sun
Allows the ocean to shine





A time of darkness can, paradoxically, be a time of clarity.

Voices Whisper

A Love song partially influenced by listening to the weather.





Voices Whisper  -  05 Aug 14

Voices whisper
In a moist night
Raindrops mask the words
Night colours them
Stars hide behind cloud

Rain across the roof
Mimics voices
Whispering
Heard through an open window
We snuggle and listen

In the whispering dark
We whisper
Share our Love
With words
Sing along with the rain





Snuggling while listening to the rain ~ Lovely.

Birth Of Love

Another little Love song from an unexpected place.





Birth Of Love  -  03 Aug 14

Touching us
Deep within
Heart feeling

We knew
Beyond words
Outside senses

Open hands
Sharing Love
Sharing us





Inspired in part by this quote seen on Love Quotes on Twitter, [@ and run the words together]

Love is not about sex, going on fancy dates, or showing off. It's about being with a person who makes you happy in a way nobody else can.

Sweet Night

A little Love song under the stars.





Sweet Night  -  02 Aug 14

Transformation of night
Into a place
Of safety and security
Where we can meet
And talk
And Love

Embrace the night
Know that it is home
Security under the stars
They watch when we
Are together
In Love





All Love stories are watched by the stars.

Spinning

Playing with colours in dreams and elsewhere.





Spinning  -  01 Aug 14

Spinning around
Between the images
Of the dreams
Painted on sand
In colours
Never imagined
Woven into cloth
Worn by angels
As they dance
Across the sand
And in the forests
Of night
The colours sing





The colours can sing ~ listen.

Juicy Thoughts

Another Love song with some Lust stirred in to give a little added flavour.





Juicy Thoughts  -  01 Aug 14

Juicy thoughts
Squeezed gently
To extract the nectar
Tongue curled
Around the drops
None shall be wasted

Your nectar
Tempts me
Entices me
Fills me with
Your sweetness
Drunk with you





Spicy nectar ~ yum.

Dark Dreams

Sometimes playing with the dark dreams can be fun.





Dark Dreams  -  31 Jul 14

Shadows in the night
Darker than nightmares
We dance a dance of dream
Kiss the phantom Moon
Play the games
Chase the dark
Smile in the night





Playing helps understanding of what the dream is about.

Chant Of Moon Ocean

A Love song with a hint of "limite surréaliste" to add a little spice.





Chant Of Moon Ocean  -  30 Jul 14

Tickle touch
Hands gently gliding
On skin
Dreaming in the wake
Moon leaves across
Ocean chanting
Words shape thoughts
Moon boat sails
Carry more forms
Into our lives
Blue song night sky
Moon holds the memory
Ocean shares
Their hands touch
Tickles begin





Spice to warm things up just a little.

Dream Building [Acrostic]

The thought came and searched around for a way to express itself.





Dream Building [Acrostic]  -  28 Jul 14

Days drift by ~ call out to night
Reaching into memories
Even as we try to create
Ample ideas which we know
May grow into the things we want

Building the forms
Under which we will live
Infinite playground
Love is the architect
Dream the tools
Imagination where it grows
Now let us take flight
Grow





It found a good way and settled down ~ to grow.

Secret Message

The secret messages only heard by the two who are singing a Love song.





Secret Message  -  27 Jul 14

No one else knew
We talked to each other
Voices kept low
Not a whisper
Silence was louder
In our Hearts
We heard the thoughts
Felt the energy
Understood
In the secret message
Three words were clear
I Love you





Another Love song ~ they just seem to want to form.

Wind Wishes

Another in the expanding "five thousand mile" sequence of poems.





Wind Wishes  -  26 Jul 14

Wind carries wishes
Dreams open
Fullness of the thought
Wishes carry me
Over time and distance
Five thousand miles
I carry the dream
Spark in the life and Love
She reaches for the dream
We share the dream
Fed by the wind
Love takes flight





I really like the way this series is developing.

Invitation To Play

Some interesting thoughts were passing through my mind as this poem formed and as I re-read it now the thoughts flow back.





Invitation To Play  -  25 Jul 14

Looking up
The stars look down
Watch us
Smile
We call our greeting
To the stars
Invite them
To join our dance
Our play
Us





A Lovely dance and game.
