Craving a Drink in Summer's Heat

Sweet Summer, 1912, John William Waterhouse

sweet   days  of summer she longs  to  relax
lying   by  the fountain she craves a  drink 
romantic dreams, time slipping through the cracks
ah the thorns of  love , roses of  blush  pink

fresh   water   to  cool her burning  desires 
exposing herself,  yearning  for  his  touch 
in waves of  heat  who knows  what   will   transpire 
fanning  lustful  thoughts , a  heart  beats  too   much 

composing a  sonnet , two souls  entwined 
lingering  moments , parted lips  soft  sighs
lost  in the  green   oasis  of her  mind 
sinking  into  pools of his  dark   brown  eyes

traveling   far   beyond  the  garden  gate
destiny  awaits,  what   will   be  their  fate ...

Tilting Towards the Sun

summer solstice

day of  abundant light

tilting my head  towards the sun

fires of passion  burn in my soul

warming my heart new awareness

my roots grow deep, reaching for you

dreams grow in a field of yellow gold
darkness fades, opening blue skies

swaying in a breeze I think of you 

smiling brightly...

Through the Glass...

Faceless
 can  you  see  me
concealed  identity 
 no  reproductions ,  uniqueness 
lonely
 

Not To Be Reproduced, 1937, Rene Magritte

smiling
 wearing  my  suit 
 past  the mirrored  image 
 revealing   myself   just   for  you
we  touch

Thirteen Moons

Thirteen  full moons enchantment dwells

heavenly glow filling darkness with light

irresistible allure falling under your  spell

rare blue moon,  sparkles with delight

tides of emotion tender hearts swell

eclipsed with clouds veils pearly  white

engaging magic, captivating stories to tell

night of wonder, amazing dreams take flight

mystical moon, songs of the conch shell

orb of luminous light,  glowing bright

overflowing cup a sip from the well

nature in awe  beguiled at your sight

sun at daybreak, bidding you farewell
