what makes poetry
long ago kiss an embrace...
set down into words
-----
tears upon petals
desire's glistening diamonds...
coaxed forth by kisses
-----
crumbling old relic
ancient beyond salvation...
restored by her love
-----
sinful wine we share
a magnificent vintage...
spilling from our mouths
-----
best shirt plaid flannel
coffee cup that's cracked and stained...
the world is my domain
-----
slow dance to old songs
touching ways that lovers do...
on mind and body
-----
reading his strange words
which reach inside and touch her...
ways that make her smile
-----
in your eyes i see
burning desires of your soul...
dancing flames you hide
-----
bound by webs of words
quivers as they touch her soul...
crying out with joy
-----
how can this be real
ecstasy cannot be touched...
touches so deeply
-----
soft waves barely seen
leave phosphorescent kisses...
on sand's moonglow lips
-----
at our moon's command
for a moment stars are still...
so we remember
-----
struggles against pain
fighting each day's new battles...
warrior princess
-----
writing poetry
often i can but echo...
the words which chose me
-----
in search of pleasure
she immerses herself in...
pools of poetry
-----
how it excites her
the moment he moans her name...
when she's all he feels
-----
understood by her
is a greatest gift to me...
she understands love
-----
she shared her secrets
surprised how many matched mine...
she's such a good girl
-----
can't conquer her soul
must wait until she's ready...
reveals it herself
-----
sometimes animal
she comes and unlocks my cage...
running free with me
-----
