Like Popcorn beside my Bowl

We are blissfully unaware of our feelings
till they are intense. 
Feelings trigger more feelings
swirling around our consciousness,
taking on lives of their own. 
Even in our nightmares,
we create beasts of pure emotion.
Phosphorescent paint illuminates
fiery sparks of emotion and
reveals a tiny human figure
trapped inside a dancing crescendo of feeling.

Flushed by frenzy and fervor
They come rapidly
With renewed gusto and agitation
Exploding fiercely and feverishly
In nuclear meltdown
Robustly detonating
And spilling out
Like popcorn beside my bowl.

Rhapsody in Lace


One moment softly melts into another
in dreamy never-ending ecstasy.
It is a rhapsody in lace
In the darkness of gentle quiet moments-
A lingering touch, a smile, a tender embrace.

The day is gone, the night draws near,
The morning comes anew�
Though time stands still,
My love stays warm
When I am here with you.
