Moon Robes

Queen or, perhaps, Empress of the Night rules with Love.





Moon Robes  ~  04 Apr 15

Clothed in silver
Light glistens
In your hair
You wear the Moon well

In one hand
The orb of night
Filled with stars
Beacons to light your way

The other holds the sceptre
Luna magic
White gold keeping
The mysteries growing

In your Heart
Your Love
Holds me
Willing captive





. . . and I was not talking about the Moon.

 

Looking Into

I cannot say too much without giving away the "plot" of the poem.





Looking Into  -  02 Apr 15

Ancient mysteries
Unfolded from a library
Scrolls on shelves
Untouched
For centuries
The folded parchment
Still soft
Belies the age
Wrapped within
Messages
Still fresh
You knew me then
While looking into
Me
You know me now





You have always known me.

 

Three Touches Now

Not entirely certain if this poem should be designated a "limite surréaliste" even though it has some characteristics of that genre.  Whatever, it is a Love song anyway.






Three Touches Now  -  01 Apr 15

Dark night stars
Blinking between cloud
Watching me through
Black on black
Remembered eyes glow
Each touch warm
With kisses embroidered
We share three
Touches of Love
Now and forever





A Love song is in a category of its own, it is a category in itself.

Twin Pools

Another Love song with no added flavouring ~ just more Love.





Twin Pools  -  01 Apr 15

Lost in the flow
You hold me
In ways I never expected
Your gentle touch
Guides me to your Heart

Your hold
So sweet ~ so tender
I feel your Love
Flowing into me always
Filling me with you

Twin pools of your eyes
Promise of you
I ride the tide
With anticipation
To reach you





Love ~ one of the world's greatest spices.

 

Raven Song

A Love song with a little twist to it.





Raven Song  -  01 Apr 15

Raven song
Dreams of dark wings
Carried on the night wind
To dance with my mind
In endless nights

Words never forgotten
You sang them to me
Every time we met
In our dreams
And ravens joined the chorus

Endless nights
With ravens whispering
The words of their songs
Wrapping our dreams
In their dark wings





Ravens whisper as they watch us.

 

Noonbeams

This poem could be included in the "limite surréaliste" sequence and, before you ask, that is not a typo in the title line.





Noonbeams  -  31 Mar 15

Sketch the Moon
From memory
Filling in details
As I go
Shadow of the sun
Cast on my face
Leaving the raindrops
Of noon to dampen
My thoughts
In the light of the Moon
Daylight nights
Shaving images
Of the savings
Times in the Moon





Playing with words and thoughts is so much fun.

Perfume Pictures

Just a hint of "limite surréaliste" to add a little twist to a Love song.





Perfume Pictures  -  31 Mar 15

Subtle perfume
Paints an image
Shows me who you are
Where you are
When you are
Tells me you are
So I can connect
And become
We Am
For the rest of our
Eternities





Guess the question now is ~ when are we?

Night Wind

Just a small poem today inspired by an observation in the night.





Night Wind  -  31 Mar 15

Wind
Torn cloud
Tousles Selene’s hair
As she dances across
The night
To hide from
The dawn





Moon dancing, such a Lovely sight.

 

Images Appear

A little selection of poems, with a hint of Love song held within.  The first is a Senryū, the second a Tanka and the third a modern Haikū.





Images Appearing  -  30 Mar 15

Cascading image
Memories echoing on
Across time to now

Just wanted to see
Time will show me images
Pictured memory
Painted on the canvasses
We carry with us always

Carried in my pocket
Your photograph kept warm
Heart heat





All linked by the theme of images or pictures.  I hope you like them.

Blanket Of Dream

A pure Love song with just the lightest touch of Lust song to add a little fire on the tongue.






Blanket Of Dream  -  29 Mar 15

Blanket of dream
Wrapped tightly
Around me
Through the night
And through the days
Filling me with visions
And warmth from
You holding me
Close





I Love the effect spices have.
