I didn’t notice
him walk
into the restroom
I was talking
to My Mother-in-Law
outside the restrooms
when I decided
I should go too

I find myself imagining
how the differences will
play out…
The unfamiliar,
lengthening silences,
stretching into the dusk.
The way dust devils will
gather in corners, waiting
for something that
will never come.

I’m sure that you will hear

Poetry Challenge: Valentine Poem

Cupid’s arrow may for most
be secret on this day
when anonymity prevails
in messages we say
But for me the message is the same
with thirty-eight cards done
‘I love you more and more each year
For me there’s only one’

The moment I saw you, was the moment the butterflies in my stomach flew
The moment I saw you, I met the reality of a dream I once drew
The moment I saw you, I saw my reality anew
Your presence makes my heart leap in disbelief
My puzzle pieces have finally found their matching piece

I have been trying to be a good husband and do all the things that my wife asks me to do. However, I must admit, I sometimes fall short.

You won’t be there, I know, but
Anticipation burns.
The thought of maybe seeing you
My aching heart it yearns.
You won’t be there, I know, but

God’s way to arrange
With His ambit and range
Chose to make a change

Without blemish or mole
A beauty that is whole
The sparkle of her verve
Stands the test of nerve
No doubt, No reserve
