| Visions
I see you by the bookcase, hand on the rocker my mother left me, out of the corner of my eye as I pass the bed -- place my hand on the shower wall and close my eyes as the water warms my body like you warm my heart. The space between present and past dreams and my reality combine-- Time brings wisdom, the ancients say and I found you again in friendship Now, I see you, your eyes loving across oceans and I smile as I sit at the desk I built reading your words. You are my new love my old love renewed stronger perhaps by experience, adversity. I see you, walking to me across the floor I mopped three times in preparation for you and as I snuggle where we snuggled surrounded by winter darkness, I send a hug to my sailor in my Sabbath prayer. |

Wireless
Grinning up at me From the blue frame by my Computer you Send me to dreamland Dementia forgotten As I wander on the Clouds of a daydream world where We are looking into each other�s eyes in life not photographs. Our love, strong as steel cables Stretches across the miles Our own special wires unbreakable by distance heating up the country between us Tying our hearts together As we plan for a wire-less future. |
| Homecoming Countdown
Dreaming, scheming patiently impatient Im waiting for you-- polished trimmed sandblasted teeth grinning with glossy lips counting down T minus 46 hours Pink toenails tapping Feet under skirt Aching to run to you Fingers tapping keys Aching to be wrapped Around your neck Eyes gazing into dreamland Aching to be looking into yours Butterfly in my tummy Curled toes Leaving home in 2 hours time to find my heart�s home with you. |
