I see you standing in the ruins of a neglected garden,
the tallest of your kind. Marble feet pinned by the
very roots that cracked your foundation.
Your northern body crusted in thick moss, southern
vines branching around your throat and in the
sadness that echoes from abandoned eyes I see
the tired sparrows that collect at your feet
and my small hands circle your face in the urgent
way of hummingbirds with machete wings. | |

Posted: 6/27/2008 10:36:45 PM | well, be careful with such things
I've seen a lot of owners that looked like their dogs
spend to much time blending
and you lose your individual identity
 and it takes one to know one, or somethin' | |

I stood outside where Yoko lives
you can feel the respect all around
the roses on his stone "Imagine"
blew me away
and people quietly sitting
looking at the tribute
as if they could talk to John
it was dark, so very dark
a haze was engulfing the lamposts
in Central Park
I didn't linger long
too many stories
and not all that safe to be standing
in the dark but I am glad I had the chance
to pay my respects to a peaceful man
who left us his legacy of wonderful songs. | |

Posted: 6/29/2008 1:02:37 AM | AF...very cool thing to do. I've heard not a night goes by when there isn't a vigil but how can the world ever forget someone that could write this:
Oh my love for the first time in my life,
My eyes are wide open,
Oh my lover for the first time in my life,
My eyes can see,
I see the wind,
Oh I see the trees,
Everything is clear in my heart,
I see the clouds,
Oh I see the sky,
Everything is clear in our world,
Oh my love for the first time in my life,
My mind is wide open,
oh my lover for the first time in my life,
My mind can feel,
I feel the sorrow,
Oh I feel dreams,
Everything is clear in my heart,
Everything is clear in our world,
I feel the life,
Oh I feel love. | |

Posted: 6/30/2008 4:18:31 PM | sitting crosslegged
feet tucked under at the beach
feeling summer roll through me
yet somethings out of reach
closing my eyes i focus
drawing in brown
coffee colored sand soothing away
my frown
eyes close
as my mind's eye turns to hues
of turqouise, sea green
the deepest shades of blue
deeply inhaling the smell of the sea
toes buried in the sand
sting of the salt caressing my face
eyes opening exhaling
thankful that God gave me
peace in this place | |

Tracing
The outline
Of your figure
The outline
Of your beauty
The outline
Of your lips
Being
Overwhelmed
By the way
The air moves
Around you
A word
Unbecoming
Has not
Passed
Through
Those lips
Your hand
In mine
Your
Dress
Flows
Through
The night
And looking beyond
Your eyes
Has not been a thought
To cross my mind
For here
I am lost
And I
Am
Not looking
For my way
When the night ends
And you fall into my arms
And your lips take mine
Our eyes
Don’t look back
To see
Who
May
Be
Watching
When
Alone
I
Trace
The outline
Of
Your
Lines
In
My
Mind
And cannot see
The rest
Of this world
Looking into
My eyes
I
Have
Forgotten
That
The rest
Of the world
Exists
The rain
I see in your eyes
The music
In your voice
And I believe
That I have
No need
To look for food
As
Long
As the rain
May wash us
And keep us
Then
I will look
No more | |

Posted: 6/30/2008 8:25:07 PM | Man ...Eyes that carried magnitudes of lusty love and desire! Lucky one that that one was written for...magnificent!
This one for S. and B.M.........
Feed me with your soul
Lift me with your words
Envelope me in moments
Spent alone with ...you
Capture me each morning
Hold me hostage
with your eyes
Eat me like a dessert
Swallow me like your pride!
Lull me in the evening
Walking upon the shore
When the sun sets beauty
I am yours ...forevermore!
Sunrise brings us warmth
While held close in your arms
My life is holding something
You my love...my heart!
 sweet sunset and sunrises ...beauty...and your sweetie! | |

The ether in your kiss

I become a spirit, a thought,
a breeze that fills your lungs
with oh and we begin again. | |

thanks to Yoko for turning me on to this long ago
and blackmary by proxy..
I saw you this morning.
You were moving so fast.
can't seem to loosen my grip
On the past.[ b]it is just an INFP thing lol
And I miss you so much.
there is no one in sight.
and we're still making love
In My Secret Life.
I smile when I'm angry.
I cheat and I lie. (never)
I do what I have to do
To get by.(yeppers)
But I know what is wrong, wish I could forget
And I know what is right(thanks to grandmother
And I 'd die for the truth(always)...the one thing worth dying for
In My Secret Life.
Hold on, hold on, my brother.(WOW..gone don't know what he said..just gone *smile..)
My sister, hold on tight.(yes
I finally got my orders.(yes) from grandmother *smile.
I'lll be marching through the morning,
Marching through the night,
Moving cross the borders
Of My Secret Life.
Looked through the paper.
Makes you want to cry.(i fight that tho)
Nobody cares if the people(apathy isn't an option for some of us )
Live or die.
And the dealer wants you thinking
That it's either black or white.just like a politician, there really is NO black and white
Thank God it is not that simple
In My Secret Life.
I bite my lip.
I buy what I'm told:[ b]that will never happen *smile
the latest hit,
To the wisdom of old.only my own and grandmother's
But I'm always alone. never {/b]
And my heart is like ice. well that is a laugh *smile
And it;s crowded and col{crowded maybe, but certainly never cold
In My Secret Life. | |
