Winter’s Respite

Be Still

Be still, my soul! Keep silent.
You roaring waves, lie down.

Prompted Acquiesce

.

Soft

Your Touch

Breath

A subtle Caress

Unsure

.

A Figment of my Imagination,

Once lost amidst the rock and shale of breaking day

The first step

 

No hesitation here
No holding back
A firm foot forward
There’s nothing I lack
No niggling doubts
No worries or lows
No fear of unknown
No concerns and no woes

Her lips
Softly crushed
Beneath mine,
Feeling the hot stir,
Butterflies in my gut,

-12.08.15_21:31-

I kiss your lips,
My hands
Slowly caressing you,
Sweetly disrobing
My lover.

Enigma ~ Acrostic VI

Ever am I enticed by your advance and retreat

New again, this old dance of ours so sweet

Intrigued that your heart is now to me returned

Guarding my own against that for which I’ve yearned

Me, entranced and on my knees

And you, the riddle inside a mystery

Definition of Acrostic form sourced from: Shadow Poetry:
“Acrostic Poetry is where the first letter of each line spells a word, usually using the same words as in the title.”

Anticipation

 

There are moments in soft summer days
when a whisper to the world
is all that’s needed when I wake
and the morning is unfurled

Yellow II

 

Yellow things are mostly there
to serve as a reminder
the fact that summer’s almost here
and is going to be a blinder!

Quietness (haiku)

Anticipating
quietness, the solitude
of morning greets me

That Longest Moment

Posted for Vivien.

I do not know

If the second prolongs

Or if time abruptly

Stops.

That longest
