A Mate To My Soul

A poem written long ago that I share with you today. Originally written as a song.

Look, I know you are someone else’s Valentine For the rest of the year, can I imagine you are mine?  We both decided, we will try and fight it Scared to risk it, but just as scared to miss it We’ll be pretending we’re fine – hoping we will be in time.  Midnight belongs to us, an ending and beginning all at once I miss your voice, your imagination Wishing we had another choice and no limitation.  The change in the seasons...

Distance and Time

The shadows are long Like our conversations

Distance and Time (Raanana, Israel, July 19, 2017) In the time of the dying light When the distant sun dallies Over the western hills, Its radiant fingers fondling the upper slopes Like expectant breasts to its warm touch, The shadows are long Like our conversations, Careful not to say too much Yet desirous that they not end. In the manicured garden The shadow of the weeping willow by the creek Reaches almost to our lawn...

The Letter Finis

His mind goes to a sunflower field

Three times they probed the base.   They came during the darkest of the night.  Mortars falling inside, kicking up dirt and random sandbags.  The chatter of our heavy weapons returning the favor.  Pushing their first wave back.  Once then twice as we poured our fire into their broken lines.  Then to our centre, heavy movement as their third wave broke through our wire.  Pushing deep they wheeled to our left.  With their g...

The Letter Continues

love knows no distance

Laying under the night sky, counting stars and thinking of you. Sound of Patches, in her paddock. Dreaming of your soldier boy. You feel life is good.   Driving home from work,. passing by the protesters. Screaming how evil the war is, soldiers are killers and murder babies. You turn your radio up louder, My Imagination by The Temptations, play on. Bringing calm back to you. What is your boy doing? you wonder as you shift...

The Letter

Soon my love

Just the start of another day.  Your song comes on the radio. Sly & the Family Stone. "Thank You". As you wiggle in your jeans. You think of your boy, far far away. Sitting on the corner of your bed, you read his last sentence. "I'll be back in your arms, soon my love."   ...................... Just the start of another day. You unfold her letter, putting it to your nose. Inhaling deeply her scent. Sitting on your helmet,...

One Less Day As another day wakes With you to protect Till the day you fly Into my arms Forever mine As I am yours Heart Being Soul Aphrodite Goddess of love Smiles and kisses Your sweet forehead Words gifted to you Love Respect Adore Surge thru you Etched to your core Goddess Aphrodite Rides her chariot East to West As your eyes close You hear my voice Love Respect Adore Good night Soft kiss  Sweet princess One less day...

In your sleep I shall come We will run As our arms turn to wings Fly away Fly away Two love birds our love songs play Two lover lay Heart and soul Soul and heart  In your sleep I shall come

Everlasting Friendship

For a spiky haired kid who took a chance on a friend

I wish you could see what you mean to meWhere we have gone and where we will beWe were two souls connected in the nightAn email that started a friendship so right Tears, laughter, and naughty things Fun times, joys, and stories of ping'sHush Little One and Seduction by SlumberThese things we write without encumber Seeing through the chaos in my headHelping me see what needs to be said Through love, pain and heartacheYou'r...

The waiting is the soul's biggest enemy, taking all its beauty.

The horizon always looks much brighter,that is where the rainbows belong,not here near me,where all the lights are dim.It's on the horizon that you belong too,you're a bright spot so far away,that even though I want to be with you,there are many mountains blocking my way.Your presence with me,always seems like a dream,that I will never achieve,but maybe with time,you will finally appear, just like a gift.For now my love,I...

I wait and I wait for a message from you, Though I know that you're busy, you've got stuff to do. You might be out of sight but you're way on my mind And I try to be generous, not to think you unkind.~o~ I glance at my watch, I'm still here all alone. I keep looking for mail and, again, check my phone. I try to stay upbeat and not to feel blue But I'm all on my lonesome and thinking of you. ~o~ I find myself antsy, not qu...

Long Distance Love

Oh, how I love thee...

Laying in their separate beds in different parts of the country, they each hug their pillows close imagining it the other as they send sweet messages of love. Both wanting longing to go back to yesterday when they were together sharing soft passionate kisses as they held each other in the same bed. Now they close their eyes As they drift off to sleep they remember each other’s aroma which brings a smile to their face. Oh,...

When you think I miss you ...

Everyday I've waited for you to call. You'll give me a ring to ... Wake me up. Make me smile. Read me a poem. Sing me a song. Tell me about your day. Watch me sleep. You'll give me a ring that says ... Missed me? Are you happy? Eat something nice? Had a great day? Missed you already even before you hit the end call and say ... I'll see you later. I love you. Honey, thank you for making my everyday worth waking up. :)
