Pretty Purple Note


This morning
I found a pretty purple note
Tucked inside the pocket
Of my leather jacket
My eyebrow lifted in a puzzled quirk
I pulled out the pretty purple note
Curious to ferret out its secrets
The lingering scent on papery surface
Tracks ticklish footprints across my nose
I unfolded the pretty purple note
With nary a quake of my hand
The corners of my mouth twitch into a smile
As subtle images pertaining
To a night of naked shared passion flash by
Our kisses shy at first then tenacious
Our soft whispers morphed into raucous moans
Heralding the quakes of shared orgasmic release
I read the handwriting
On the pretty purple note
All shreds of doubt eliminated
“Can I see you again?
Love, Your Kitten”
Collar of my leather jacket
Pulled up against the wind
Ribbons of sunlight
Reflecting off silver jacket buttons
I tuck the pretty purple note
Inside next to my heart
I’d already decided
I’ll see her again…

Once More

once more
as in times before
I find I’m only a catalyst
a stepping stone
in someone else’s path…..

once more
how prophetic it was
time indeed would tell
the planted seeds of possibilities
crumble under the weight of patience
and perhaps not enough of trust…….

once more
I wrestle with the “what ifs”
the missed clues
the lost opportunities
things left unspoken
until it was too late……

once more
I wonder where did I go wrong
what did I do or not do
to grasp what I touched
and make it mine…..

once more
when my heart is whole again
I’ll be the drifter
the wanderer
soaring on whatever winds
my wings may find…..

Shelter And Song

Come
partake of this vision
with me
break free
from those chains of encumberance
strip off
all traces of worry and sorrow
let silence rule
over the clamor of obnoxious voices
nothing else matters
but the intimacy of you and I
distance and space cannot deceive
what our hearts already know
this is no childish fantasy
we have loved before we ever met
we don’t have to be decisive
time will build a bridge
rung by rung
across this abyss
between you and I
how can lips pout
with this sweet song
let my caresses flow
like a creek on your face
while the willow trees
shroud us in patience
through the peaks and valleys of our days
the shadows and light of our nights
borders and edges of our forever
let us hold true to past omens
whispered under a full moon
until then
may you always find
steadfast shelter and song
within my wings

This I Promise You – N’Sync – Happy Valentine’s Day

Lyrics
Ohh ohh…
When the visions around you,
Bring tears to your eyes
And all that surround you,
Are secrets and lies
I’ll be your strength,
I’ll give you hope,
Keeping your faith when it’s gone
The one you should call,
Was standing here all along..

And I will take
You in my arms
And hold you right where you belong
Till the day my life is through
This I promise you
This I promise you

I’ve loved you forever,
In lifetimes before
And I promise you never…
Will you hurt anymore
I give you my word
I give you my heart (give you my heart)
This is a battle we’ve won
And with this vow,
Forever has now begun…

Just close your eyes (close your eyes)
Each loving day (each loving day)
I know this feeling won’t go away (no..)
Till the day my life is through
This I promise you..
This I promise you..

Over and over I fall (over and over I fall)
When I hear you call
Without you in my life baby
I just wouldn’t be living at all…

And I will take (I will take you in my arms)
You in my arms
And hold you right where you belong (right where you belong)
Till the day my life is through
This I promise you baby

Just close your eyes
Each loving day (each loving day)
I know this feeling won’t go away (no..)
Every word I say is true
This I promise you

Every word I say is true
This I promise you
Ooh, I promise you…

A 2009 Christmas Poem

Since that first day this past April
When I escaped serious peril
I’ve realized anew
The innocence I once knew
Is slowly crumbling
Mortality is humbling

Forever is just an eye-blink away
The march of time we cannot sway
No longer can I say I’m invincible, I’m strong
That’s why it’s so wrong
Not to take this moment now
To find the words to tell you somehow

How much you mean to me
Despite the passage of time
I’m reaching out to those I hold dear
To say what I want you to hear
Wherever you may be, wherever you are
I want you to know how much I care

Forever is just an eye-blink away
The march of time we cannot sway
It’s too easy nowadays to lose perspective
And avoid being introspective
But we can’t let the daily grind make us lose focus
And let those precious moments of sharing escape us

We have to try to break down those lengthy silences
And mend those broken fences
We have to try to restore communication
And converse without provocation
We have to try to stop being judgmental
And simply celebrate being sentimental

Forever is just an eye-blink away
The march of time we cannot sway
All my joys and all my sorrows
All my yesterdays, todays, and tomorrows
For better or for worse
You’ve help shape my life’s course

So with the approach of this holiday season
I’ve created this poem for a loving reason
Please let my words warm your heart
Even though we’re far apart
Even though times spent together are much less
Love for family and friends in these times is still priceless

Forever is just an eye-blink away
The march of time we cannot sway
When the sun rises on the brand new year
May all your hopes and dreams dawn clear
May each and every one of you
Always know that my love for you is true
