My Love
For I found you in the forest,
you with your ancient arms and legs.
When I found you, there was silence,
for we did not need to speak.
For I found an ancient tree,
and
you taught me so much about love.

The Amber Girl
She was my sunshine girl,
full of light, flowers, and bee stings.
When I saw her in amber,
my eyes were never more opened.
She might be somewhere,
yet she is no longer in my old life.
I think of her often with a smile,
to have been the one with an amber glow by my side.
A Saltwater Love
All or nothing was the lesson;
a love rush blinded my equilibrium
You said to wait a while for love.
So many tides move, and the sea
whispers of the past and the future.
I learnt my lesson with your love.
Yet, the never ending wonder,
will you return to me?
Standing on the sand alone,
the sea whispers new words today.
A kiss on the cheek,
you’re lucky I’m so old;
becoming saltwater with you.
Cupid Haiku
naughty sweet cupid
shooting off love filled arrows
hitting all the cats
A Pack of Two
Forest deep
darkness setting in
tree whispers
A pack of wolves
moving towards the moon
full moon howling
You and I
becoming the story
in the forest
All the light
that you bring to my life
this meaningless life
With you, life is a journey
this pack of two
a kiss for my wolf princess
Another Party
another afternoon party
the eternal romantic
lost in the champagne bubbles
conversation with the usual crowd
a scent lingers as you feel the sun
a door unlocked in your heart
the knowledge of a destiny
Coral cheeks give you away
the ground falls from under your feet
lost in the eyes of your best friend’s cat
Broken Breaths
All the words we never said
the many promises we couldn’t keep
All the hate and anguish
the desire for games and control
Now, between your broken breaths
you attempt to put the wrongs right
All the life you had left your shell
you lay in a bed that is not your own lifeless
With “I love you” on your blue lips
Without a Sound
you lost your lover
a silence hangs in the air
a tear rolling down
you grieve true sorrow alone
tears falling without a sound
The Cherry Blossoms
And if this is my last Spring,
I will share my Spring with you.
We may talk about the old and the new;
silences will not be unknown to us.
And if the cherry blossoms bloom,
we may watch the way they move.
We may lose ourselves to our love,
thinking back to when we were young.
And if we forget that we are older,
I will dance with you upon the petals.
The Afternoon Sand
Blue sheets in the sky
a deepening afternoon colours the sand
indigo, purple, and blue
Standing together in front of the camera,
locked in a beginning kiss
the loving tide behind
the sea towards the horizon
Reflections and vibrations
a journey to this moment of rapture
two no longer separate
standing together on the afternoon sand
