Old Times     -     18 Apr 20 

Once 

In years long past 

I recall being with 

Some friends 

Who offered nothing 

But friendship 

Out of the old times 

Into the new 

I am with one friend 

Who offers everything 

More than friendship 

Gives Love 

Without condition 

. 

Yes, she is that one special person.

Mind Wander

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.

Y Not?

This is a fun little piece ~ primarily it is a Love poem but, as it was developing, I felt that it would be interesting to set myself a bit of a challenge.  I was surprised to find that there are so few useful words beginning with the letter "Y" when trying to write a Love poem ~ here is my offering ...





Y Not?  -  13 May 13


You looked at me
Your eyes smiled a warm greeting
You spoke words of friendship
You hinted at more

Yesterday there was nothing
Yet I always hoped
Yielding to dreams
Yearning for Love

Your eyes asked a question of me
Yet you did not wait
You knew there was only one answer …
Yes

I feel that it works rather well.
