Wandering With Words
"We beseech the sands of time to hesitate, for dawn to not awaken just this once, our unanswered plea falls silent, the hourglass relentlessly unremitting."(Moon Dance Over Water)
New Words
The Tree
We met by the tree in the morning
with rising sun brushing strokes over the bay
seeing ocean's turquoise and diamonds reuniting
tasting salt air while watching pelicans at play
Your eyes met mine with a smile
with pressed lips breathing daylight anew
the beat of redemption with one love in my heart
blessed by three words never spoken so true
(Now published in Wheelsong Poetry Anthology 5 - Released October 2024)
It’s Me and You
Passionate love borne letters
each syllable seared just for you
A lullaby we’ve written together
From the ash, our fire, penned anew
Simple words, simple sounds, I know
all collecting, coalescing in view
Their rhythm like the voice of saved souls
speaks the truth, that for me, it’s you
A destiny, first whispered, a lifetime ago
imploring us, to let love flow through
A lifetime hereafter, and you’re still on my lips
I’m more than thankful, it’s me and you
