As I Drift About With Ease

In the wonder of your presence
did I tell you I adore you so
you make me feel like a poet
of the stature of Edgar Allen Poe.

You make me sail the skies
your breath being the breeze
Holding my wings afloat
as I drift about with ease.

Just sigh me a smile
as I inhale passion's scent
trickling bout the stars
as I chase where they went.

Oh, lady of mine own desire
blow me a whistful kiss
as I sail heaven's store
and drift within your bliss.

Funny Thing Happened

Funny thing happened
on the road to diversity
I was stopped for driving black

but everything asked for
was available
nothin was showing lack.

Oddest stuff comes up
when I take a forward step.
Requirements change again
As if doing that time
I had slept.

Strange things happen
on the way to diversity
Always a needed flaw

Even if I say not a word
am accused of many ills
Tho silent was both
my mouth and my jaw.

Not one iota of relief
the lie keeps on growing
As if accuzations were just for me
yet, I am the one in the knowing.

I gotta be a comedian
to deal with these tales of woe.
Ignorance shows its face
no matter where it is I go.

Funny thing happened
on the way to diversity.
I was accused of being an ass
Had to chuckle in the knowing
got enough to teach the whole class.

Hmmm, funny thing happened
on the way to diversity.

Roses and Drought

My garden suffered from drought
too much sun for their luscious bloom.
So sad to walk thru the roses
just too much sadness and gloom.

So I went to the florist
bought her a long stem red rose.
included a note from me
"I love you, don't you suppose."

She smiled that lighted ray
thanked me sweetly and grinned.
Kissed me and whispered
think you will do it again?

Last week I sent her 3 roses
one of each of color she adores.
They made her cheery and thankful
like lounging on island shores.

Today I sent a dozen mixed roses
all in a crystal glass vase.
A jester telling her I still care
love the beam it brings to her face.

Too much going on to tend
to the flowers, especially the roses.
But a bloom now and again
tickles the senses thru the noses.

They are so special to her
inspires me to write and act.
Now I look forward to next year
unless the drought is coming back.

You Might Not Conceive

You have no idea the flavor
I see and taste from you.
When I let my mind wander
you are there thru and thru.

You might not conceive
how the want of you can last.
Like a chocolate eclair
or wine in a crystal glass.

You have no idea the limits
you take my mind's array
or how much we share within
thru the hours of the day.

I wear you like a crown
my sweet and sultry Queen
for all the passions visited
the most I've ever seen.

You strike chords galore
and smile me a bright day.
While forever drifts on along
I hold you special in my way.

Often you are but a sigh
a delicious dream come true.
While my life meanders on
it always includes you.

You Are Calling Me

Your lips are calling me
to taste your special flavor
As I consider your neck
more of you to savor.

Your arms are calling me
for your marvelous embrace
as I watch that sultry grin
spread cross your face.

Your thighs are calling me
a potent gripping force
to squeeze and caress
and pulsate, but of course.

Your legs are calling me
as sensual as I have seen.
A lustful sort of come on
for me to dive between.

You, my sultry lady,
are calling me to you
visions of ultra pleasures
with all you wish to do.

It Must Be How You Are

I have loved before
and offered up my star
but not like I do you
it must be how you are.

I crave me some you
lust to the highest power.
A longing increasing
every minute, every hour.

Your presence is a gift
or more like it is a prize.
You so entangle my senses
with just the blink of your eyes.

I sleep with you in mind
body remains aware.
It lies in a pointed state
as if you were there.

Can feel you caress me
hold me close up and tight
and with the way you love me
I crave you both day and night.

Can't take the simplest action
without having you in mind.
As my thoughts wallow on you
see you as a fine aged wine.

Want to always touch you
hands to fondle, fingers caress.
Starting any place I can reach
then head for the rest.

You feed my normal heat
drive my body to insane.
Its a wonder I don't pass out
when you simply call my name.

Baby, I loathe when we are apart
soul begs for you with a mighty yearn.
The slightest of a thought
keeps me in a sultry burn.

I want you and need you
like I never wanted before.
And I must let you know this
there's love for you in store.

I have loved before
and offered up my star
but not like I do you
it must be how you are.

If I Don't Make It to Heaven

If I don't make it to heaven
I've been graced by what you do
I've already had my blessings
with the time I've spent with you.

If I don't cross those pearlie gates
I have no reason to complain
The years I've shared with you
no less a soothing Spring Rain.

If I fail to make it to heaven
I have plenty to tell the folk
I've been in my earthly oasis
in bearing your loving yoke.

If I don't make it to heaven
I still will pass a happy man.
hoping to stay in your presence
forever, if I can.

It won't rock my world
if heaven locks its door
cause loving you, to me
has got to be a lot more.
