Hello

.

I had worked on this poem for quite a while but was not totally satisfied with how it felt. 

I showed it to the one special person and she suggested a few amendments, the version that appears here encorporates those amendments. 

. 

Hello     -     05 Jan 20 

Hello 

So many people 

Have written songs with that 

Simple salutation 

I have read a lot of them 

And they are beautiful 

But I never felt that what 

I wanted to say 

Would convey the same feeling 

And then you turned to me 

Smiled 

And said 

Hello 

. 

I give thanks to the one special person for the assistance. 

. 

Lingering Touch

.

Another of the "naughty" poems. 

. 

Lingering Touch    -    04 Jan 20 

Your fingers slowly move 

Never lingering long 

In any one place 

Always moving 

Your touch 

Excites and stimulates 

Makes me yours 

Without a word 

. 

The special touches should always be like this.

The Edge Of Elsewhen

.

A poem with a touch of the surreal. 

. 

The Edge Of Elsewhen    -    03 Jan 20 

You have seen me 

In a place 

Where I might have been 

You can take me 

From here to Elsewhen 

Darkness on the edge 

The light of you 

Clearly shines 

The path awaits 

. 

Can you see it? 

. 

Many Songs

.

Things grow from layer to layer. 

. 

Many Songs    -   02 Jan 20 

Words woven by the magic 

Into delicate patterns 

Singers take the patterns 

To enchant the listeners 

Many songs take the story 

From listener to listener 

And the myth is born 

. 

Watch for the myths. 

. 

Drinking Time

.

Just a suggestion. 

. 

Drinking Time    .-    01 Jan 20 

Time is fluid 

Consumption requires 

Drinking time 

In all realities 

To enjoy the pleasures 

Of existence 

Drinking time 

Is essential 

. 

Drink up. 

. 

Edge Of Forever

.

Another take on the idea of The Fool [Tarot 0].

.

Edge Of Forever    -   31 Dec 19 

Taken me 

From ordinary reality 

To a place where 

The unexpected is normal 

Inviting me 

To step forward 

Into the unknown from 

The edge of forever 

. 

Take the step... 

. 

Intimate Thoughts

.

They always feel like this. 

. 

Intimate Thoughts     -     30 Dec 19 

In my mind 

In your arms 

Holding gently 

Flowing hands 

Across you 

Feeling sweet 

Intimate thoughts 

Charged silver sparks 

Filling us 

. 

That is how it begins. 

. 

Edge Of Dream

.

Discovering you watching me. 

. 

Edge Of Dream      -    29 Dec 19 

I have seen you 

Where I never expect 

Watching me from 

Across a stream 

Or near a tree in woodland 

Then I know 

I am living in 

The edge of dream 

Where reality 

Begins to fade 

Taking me into your world 

Reaching out for me 

Your hands welcome me 

Dreams exchange places 

The edge is in a different place 

. 

Experiencing all the edges. 

. 

Stars Stream

.

Remembering being by the water edge. 

. 

Stars Stream     -     28 Dec 19 

Charmed the stars 

Ready to explore the stream 

Bring the curious night 

To touch the waters 

Star sighs amid the 

Music magic dreams 

Forever wishes 

Dances through infinity 

Under starlight night 

The stream flows on 

Carrying the stars 

To the sea 

. 

Joining the starlit voyage. 

. 

Telling

.

Remembering ALL the times. 

. 

Telling    -    27 Dec 19 

Long ago 

In a place where legends 

Are born 

Two Souls met 

The song of life 

Was heard in them 

And from them 

They travelled together 

Across the worlds 

They journied long 

Gathering adventures 

Which they shared 

With others 

Told the tales 

Stories which never 

Grow old 

With the telling 

. 

May your stories never grow old.
