About Love

Beyond Untilidie

S
tanding in your long coat
A striking figure of a man
Striding with a stalwart heart
But oh such gentle hands
Just behind the steely gaze
Glimpses I do see
Of frogs and snails and puppy dog tails
And the love you have for me.

So take my hand and show me
All places you have seen
But let�s avoid sad Wishitwas
And the wistful Couldhavebeen
Just know that I do love you
And I really don�t know why
Just know that you do have my heart
Beyond Untilidie.
Watcher in the Lighthouse

He is of the sea
And she the shore
In the moonless nights
He challenges her
With his cold logic
Salty spray of sensibility
Against her stubborn resolve
Waging eternal war
The give and the take
The he and the she
But of the days
Of low tides and calm
She receives his bounty
In her inlet streams
Rock pools of tranquility
Life abounding together
As One�..
And as the watcher
In the lighthouse
I pray�..
Long be their days
And short the moonless nights
I am a Captive Woman

I am a captive woman
Held in a lonely land
Wandering the rugged rocks
The cold and windswept sand

I pick at bits and pieces
Left by a fickle tide
Angels� wings and lovers� dreams
And devils� alibis

Amid the weeds and driftwood
I catch a glimpse of you
A tiny swirling treasure
A bit of broken blue

I pick it up so gently
And hold to my ear
Amid the roar and thunder
It�s you I think I hear

But I know it�s really just a trick
An atmospheric fiction
Conspiracy of heart and mind
Shrouded in poetic diction

Yes I am a captive woman
Forever looking out to sea
And searching through the broken bits
Just to find a bit of thee�.
About Love

I take your hand
And hold it close to a heart
Pounding, pounding
Let it speak of my love
For the mouth does fail me
Muted fool that it is
And listen, listen
Ever so closely
And in the beats you will hear
A voice speaking clear
Loving those bits of you
That I do so love~
A language beyond
Faulty tongues
And into the core of being~
This heart of mine
Free of all those man-made
�Likes� and �as if�s�
It just IS
As you ARE
Beating there in my heart~
No more to be said
About love.
