Blue Water
night
warm with honeysuckle
starlight
dancing
across
deep blue water
wind
swirling playfully
moonlight
waltzing
across
deep blue water
someday
I will swim this sea
sparkling
with unclaimed wonder
you
are in my night dreams
day
hot with white clover
sun
rays melting
you
rise from the sea
your
beauty radiates mystic
breathless,
you take my hand
exciting
splendor awaits
together
the sea is claimed
sky
and ocean our destiny
someday
we will be one
night
falls, pleasant calm
watching
and listening
dazzling
reflective blue water
day
dreams turn to night dreams
enchanting
magic unfolds
sweetness
of blue water

Fried Green Tomatoes
fried
green tomatoes we will have
oh
yes and sweet potato pie
country
music will be playing
candle
light with aged wine
black
pearls and red nail polish
dreams
dance across the floor
phone
call, should I answer
hello
hi
oh
ok
bye
wet
plentiful endless tears
fried
green tomatoes burnt
sweet
potato pie now sour
country
turns to the blues
wine
bleeds into aging heart
hot
wax runs onto floor
sleeps
awaits torn body
dreams
play with quiet soul
tomorrow
brings treasured time
finding
it will be the hard part
journey
long with anticipation
1997

poem was redone a year later...
Fried
Green Tomatoes
fried
green tomatoes
sweet
potato pie
country
music playing
black
eyed peas
red
nail polish
two
steppen tonight
candle
light wine
day
dreams dance
moonlight
shadows
forever
lasting perfume
what
magical memories
those
fried green tomatoes

Lady Of
Darkness
strong,
beautiful lady of darkness
riding
hard in the shadows of starlight
deep
within your soul, a burning emptiness
running,
hiding, heart pounding in the night
radiant,
long, white hair blowing in the wind
hooves
beating down upon the ocean sand
heated
anger from the past boiling from within
pushing,
trapping the soul with her own hand
oh,
strong, beautiful lady of darkness
the
past now trampling and crushing your mind
fight
this overpowering rage of helplessness
you
have the strength and courage from within
rip
the shackles of fear and hatred from all your years
that
are smothering and crushing your soul to death
now
the emptiness and helplessness turns into tears
the
tears drown all the pain in the heart now left
oh,
strong, beautiful lady of darkness
time
will help you heal with love from afar
nature’s
spirit fills your soul with peacefulness
ride
into the wind and set your sights onto the stars

Sweet Lavender
warm
scented day
breathtaking
beauty
sweet
lavender rose
delightful
sun rays
gentle
soft misting
romance
unfolding
wrap
my aching heart
in
your graceful touch
my
sweet lavender rose
enchanting
fragrance
splendor
spellbinding
mystical
moments

Silver
Rose
I
picked up one
petal
at a time
she
loves me
she
loves me not
petals
lined with
beloved
mercy
deep
compassion
tender
warmth
sea
breeze whispers
silent
tears dry
dolphins
play
rainbow
rays
silver
petals released
swept
gracefully away
seed
planted with care
inner
strength will grow
for
I live with mercy
deepening
compassion
loving
tender warmth
I
am radiant silver rose
1997
Sweet Tears
I
look for the starlight
our
stroll at midnight
I
listen for the breeze
and
rustling of trees
your
heartbeat I hear
never
let me go dear
for
our love runs deep
I
pray our souls to keep
you
never saw my tears
or
heard my inner fears
you
never said goodbye
how
did our love die
if
I could have a chance
let
me have another dance
hold
me forever so tight
with
magical moonlight
I
look to the splendid sky
for
understanding of why
when
the morning nears
please
kiss my sweet tears

The
Price
there
is a price to pay with life
so
many crossroads to choose
the
wanting, the needing a blur
neglecting
the heart, one will loose
there
is a price to pay for one's want
haunting
the intense mind and soul
the
ridged yearning for the control
feelings
becoming cruel or stone cold
there
is a price to pay for one's needs
knowing,listening,understanding
hatred is fear
yearning,hoping,
searching for what used to be
the
heart now wanting and needing to bleed
there
is a price to pay for life
take
a hold of fear and slice it with a knife
crushing
the hatred with trust and love
compassion
crumbling the stone around the soul
for
now, the price is worthy of the heart
knowing
fear and hatred will disintegrate
inner
strength unfolding the hidden courage
feeling
the heart beating for it is not to late
1997
Untamed
Hunger

inner
love burns
waterfall
dancing
untamed
hunger
moonlight
silhouette
beauty
reveals
magical
essence
night
breeze sings
body
touches soul
dreams
released
sweetness
calls
desire
surrenders
breathless
journey
