Melody

Sweeping down

My unclad neck

Your fingers gliding

Softly strumming

Singing to my heart

Lyrically embracing

The note that is me

Blanket My Heart

Tags

, , , , ,

I feel your arms
Fold around me
Like the soft touch
Of a cozy blanket
Protecting me
Feeding your warmth
Into me, drawing away
The cold from an icy world
With the fervor
Of a fiery heart

Clouds surge
Swallowing up the blue
Crowding the light
The wind, swirling
In a dance above
Whipping through leaves
Tearing at them, until they
Surrender to the churn
Of nature’s almighty breath
Unsettling the skies
As darkness descends

Solace

There is nothing

More soothing

Than the sound

Of God’s thunderous voice

As he enlightens the skies

Washing away

The sorrows of today

With the hope

Of tomorrow

Camping

Tags

, , , , , , ,

They pitch their tents
And gather sticks
They tell me I should try it
It’s fun they say
Come on and play
Sorry, I just don’t buy it
The forest folk hide nearby
They never make a sound
But I know they’re there
And try not to care
However, it’s much too quiet
A pat on the back
As they finish their tasks
The campsite looks quite inviting
But I’m still not staying
With bugs I’m not laying
Just drop me off at the Hyatt.
