If Walls Could Speak



blue rain











 
Now, you say the blues are just like that
sexy & smooth, as a  lover's move
can't sleep with that haunting need
arousal of emotions inner commotion

My body aches,  sweltering heat
restless night, no need for sleep
bottle of cab, two glasses full
one for you and one for me

You're traveling that train fast
pattering sound of blue rain
watchin' the hours of time pass
waitin' for you secluded room

You & me gonna hit the floor
make those pictured walls hum...
you know the tune I'm talkin' about
the tune of love, rich and raw
claw our way, to ecstasy

moving slow now that's real sweet
you and me between the sheets
writin' our own musical lines
hush my cries, with pleasurable sighs

ah , you know what I need
I need to be pleased

Cash Eyes




dressed in gold..green shimmering  eyes
making promises of riches, smiling with pride
you'll never be alone, sitting high on the  throne
when you go just for the money, you'll sell your soul
your heart will turn cold, from the greed of gold
just for the money, just for the money

run with the money, run with the money
you can sell your conscious & buy a prayer
telling everyone to pay their fair share
people lost in a broken world, does anyone care
money won't buy your way into heaven
standing side by side at the gate, waiting fate

little bit of money, would be sweet like honey
make life a bit easier, lighten the load
careful of the glitter, it could be fool's gold
hang on to the cash, make a sweet stash
not asking  for a king's ransom, just a bit of silver
don't want to rule the throne, just a piece of my own..

Radiant Light

 
The Moth and the Lamp, Cesar Santos 







lone moth
seeking her mate
flying on wings of night
fluttering delicate shadows
she sighs

bright light
riding moonbeams
leaving soft scented trails
loving art of subtle allure
she waits

fragile
tendrils of love
consumed burning desire
surrendering herself for light
she clings

Harvest Moon














Under the glow of a full harvest moon
she roams the night soft radiant light
seeking answers in a turquoise lagoon
on bended knee,  world of thoughts

cloak of darkness, concealing emotion
before her eyes visions flash, misty sky
reading love letters sealed devotion
spoken in a tongue only she understands

pines swaying, waiting autumn breeze
new melody stirs, tall dreaming firs
birds fly on restless wings, tree to tree
summer kiss, sultry days we'll miss

gathering song under a harvest moon
howls in the mist, wolf silently prowls
captivating  heaven & earth swoon
wooden flute, chanting praises

golden hues, dew touches her lips
stars dart across a drumming heart
removing her cloak, naked she dips
answers found  in a turquoise lagoon

What Happens After Midnight



 














your songs echo through my soul
love so tender, rich and bold
heart beating forever strong
within the sweet melody of love

your  rhythm entwined with mine
we dance slowly and easily
within reach of heaven's arms
waltzing in a lover's dream

you are my moon, stars & sun
without you I am a song unsung
lyrics drifting in the midnight air
a songbird, in a gilded cage

you are my mind, body & soul
without you I cannot soar
strike the chord & I will fly
upward to the magic of the sky

lay a wish upon my pillow
as I slowly drift to  sleep
ever  changing  kaleidoscope,
visions of whispering dreams

music softly playing on the radio
we dance cheek to cheek
two silhouettes, in moonlight
where your heart leads I follow

if, I am dreaming wake me not
for I long to dance to the beat
behind the veil of innocence
hungry lips urgently meet

what happens after midnight
secrets beneath the sheets
