Forever More

He awakened my heart

With the delicate stroke

Of his feathered pen

Words, written

Spilled from his hand

Spoke louder than the tolling

Of the steeple bell

And I listened, to the deafening silence

Felt the trembling of his breath

Watched, as he bled the ink

Into the parchment

The flow of his masterful hand

Caressing his words

Giving them life, his life

To mine, forever more

A delicate touch

The soft glow of candlelight

Awakens my love

A Groundhog’s Lament

You wake me in the morning
To find out if I see
My shadow lurking in the sun
Waiting to frighten me

If this shadow doesn’t show up
Early spring is in the air
But if this pesky fellow comes
It’s six more weeks of winter wear

Here’s hoping that the clouds
Hide the sunshine on this day
So when I come out of my burrow
I can chase the cold away

But next year, please, find someone new
Perhaps a weatherman instead
So they can be rustled from their sleep
And predict what days still lie ahead

Lay your hand upon my chest
Feel the power rushing through
A heart that beats forever strong
My heart, it beats for only you

Touch your lips against my own
Let me breathe my life into thee
Let me show you what it means
To have you, so close to me

Melt into these arms of mine
Let me hold your entire soul
Then promise that you’ll not let go
Tis love that will make us whole

She wakens

Arousing the skies and waters

She illuminates

With a growing light

She bathes

In the rippling of the seas

And her warmth graces the morn

With ageless beauty
