Summer Solstice


summer scents seep
 thru my senses
sail away...
pine needles dewy, wet
bay breezes glisten 
sail away...
beckoning
wanting to caress my skin
sail away...
my mind trips to
a time 
when life 
simpler
meant days ...
warm sand, waves teasing toes
strolls along moonlit way
sail away...
humid smoke rings 
guitar songs
sail away...
chocolate melting
marshmello glow
sail away...
plaid blanketed bronzed bodies
midnight skies
star night lights
misty kisses
sparkling eyes
sail away...

Given you everything

Sometimes life throws a sucker punch that 
rocks you to the core....
takes your breath away
and leaves a pit in your stomach the size of Texas....


Each day I wake up... my first thought is of you...
I turn to you - caress your skin... 
assurance you are mine... you are still here....
we have our "time"  we talk....
we discuss the day.... 
As the day  goes on I ponder...
little things
what to make you for lunch... dinner....
keeping your house in order so theres never any chaos
...neat and in order.... the way you like it....
clean socks, clean clothes...
what can I do to make your life easier..
the chores, weed the gardens, mow, rake dishes, 
shovel snow....
Never once would I ever consider "ME" frst
that is not how I am that is not how I roll
Yet you have had an offer you can't refuse....
and offer that was part of 
OUR DREAM...
yet you are going without me... 
To say I am hurt does not even begin to 
describe the pain I feel - - 
this was OUR dream ....
but because you can be bought... 
its your dream now....

I

Snow falls gently
caressing the ground with its cold white feather
gently thoughts of you touch my mind
taking me to another place, another time...

Life wasn't simple then ... it was quite complicated in fact
but I felt beautiful... loved.... worshiped and adored
Winters didin't seem long, summers were way to swift...
Falls and Springs were just another romantic season... 

Though you are gone - I learned from you ...
What true beauty is, that I am still,,, loved... worshiped and adored
I learned that in this life long committed relationship that in giving...
I am given... I loving... I am loved... in taking I am taken... 

Now in this place I am content...
Gently as the snow falls and winters aren't so long...
