No More Ecstasy Than This

A piano sonata in my head
soft music is the background
Your breath on my face
not another soul around.

Each note but a song
whispered out quite clear.
As our lips play the scales
breathing, all we can hear.
.
Percussioning hearts
pounding to a crescendo.
Moans holding the bass
way down deep and low.

A refrain of fluted spears
hovers in the heated air.
Lust raising the level
music exploding everywhere.

Drums, cymbals ignite
pulsing limbs on the move.
Loud panting, the solo
rocking in our own groove.

Passion conducts
music grows more intense
volcanic quakes and spills
love's powerful incense.

In the solitude of the glow
music fading into the abyss
We, floating on our cloud
no more ecstasy than this.

A Well Spring Of Emotions

There's a deep seated need
in how I am craving you
perhaps a substitute of sorts
it penetrates me all thru.

I have no idea all the reasons
but accept one as a fact.
Since having you in my life
my soul is coming back.

Feelings which I thought
had long been buried
now are springing up
like bouquets being carried.

You touched something inside
a wellspring of emotions.
Now you have me smiling
with all the inner commotions.

Thank you, dear, I gotta say
feels like a new arising
how you reached in and touched
so very very surprising.

Life had done its thing
reeked havoc beyond knowing
till you came along with your love
spread it on me like snowing.

Within Her Atmosphere

Anticipation for her, so great
as if a my life depended on her.
Seeing her is a powerful feel
with all else in a sort of blur.

Her presence raises my senses
drives my inner yearning soul.
Can't find anything to compare
to match her touch, so bold.

Nothing satisfies me
like having her near.
As if my world aligns just right
within her atmosphere.

I Shed Tomorrow's Tears

I shed tomorrow's tears today
ready for the pain yet to come
knowing how life has gone awry
letting them drip out for some.

I shed tomorrow's tears right now
for how my country fades from grace
Mistaken leaders tell bold lies
with shallow grins upon their face.

I shed tears which will certainly be
a flood for what is down the road.
Resulting from troubled times
we are living with a liars code.

Time to stop this madness
corral this runaway facade
Created in greed's mighty lust
leading liars have made.

I shed tomorrow's tears today
allow them to drip free and clear.
Keep trying to wake up the masses
while chaos grows freely here.

Your Words Made Love To Me

I think your words
have just made love to me.
I think I have just been
hung in sort of rhapsody.

Think my need has been
satiated to the point
they're now converted
to a simple want.

Anything you say
which comes from the soul
makes a whole nother
saved pot of gold

I think your words
have just made love to me

Memories Ring

At times a touch may ring
a real joyous tune for sure
but wonderment and pain
might back it out the door.

We stammer in our feel
for how a touch might be
yet crave fulfillment with
touches, yes including me.

No matter what the status
treasure each touch for real
tuck the memory deep inside
to keep forever, or at least until....

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.
