My petals curl
in upon themselves
closing at sunset
Hurry- –
kiss me
one last time
before the sun
lays down
beyond
the mountains
to sleep
beneath
a velvet canvas

My petals curl
in upon themselves
closing at sunset
Hurry- –
kiss me

Winter dances
a soft shoe shuffle.
Under the door
silver stars
dust the floor.
Morning hugs
and coffee
melts him
into me.
A faint sigh- –

Yes, I know it is a few days early, but they go so fast.
I hope the dreaded writer’s block never hits you over the head. May the new year be a block free zone for everyone. My best of wishes to all of you.
I’ll pop in again once I’ve dumped mine.
Blessings.
Seeking treasure
you search my neck
stealing heartbeats- -breath.
Warming the chill
of loneliness
will change you forever.
A man’s heart
can only take so much- -love.
So I’ve heard.
Explorations take time- –
trekking a wilderness.
Carefull- –
don’t lose yourself too deeply
while relishing the moments
between need and warmth.
Darkness and light never last long.
Don’t lose yourself.- –
I’ll want to find you
when it’s my turn.

It is
humanity with no soul,
control freaks- -CONTROL,
the great sleepwalking hordes- –
not sharing the value
of unconditional love- –
the precious vastness
of its meaning- –
Unconditional Love.- –
UNCONDITIONAL,
essential cohesive ingredient
for healthy personal empowerment
in life’s great flow- –
a societal inability to slow
allowing our children
to unconditionally grow- –
so they may know
carnage and death
do not create great heroes
unique in their technique
to receive attention.
The brutal intention
of freaks in control,
humanity with no soul,
the great sleepwalking hordes
devoid- -of love- -unconditional,
is why children die
at the hands of other children- –
vicious- -malicious,
this grave war of angels.
Humanity HAS the capacity- –
facility of heart, to overcome
what the control freak mindset
has yet to encompass.- –
True victory for a hero
is not in the act of conquering,
but in the deeds
of unconditional loving- –
despite the hateful acidity
of others.

When Reading my poetry, the "- -" is a pause longer than a comma and shorter than a sigh.
Sharing via the share buttons is fine, and I thank you.

"A dreamer is one who can only find his way by moonlight, and his punishment is that he sees the dawn before the rest of the world." Oscar Wilde.
They call it a stress/echo test. I find it odd that running on a treadmill can tell us so much about broken hearts.
I think it is true, life can only be as good as we make it.
"1. Out of clutter, find simplicity.
2. From discord, find harmony.
3. In the middle of difficulty lies opportunity."
Albert Einstein, Three Rules of Work.
I need to put all my poems in one place. One day when I have passed away a few of my loved ones may stumble across them by accident and be surprised.
Sometimes I just need to sit down and let the volcano of creativity erupt.
" Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions;
reality can be attained only by someone who
is detatched." Simon Weil.
It is also about artistic passions and sharing those with all the people I care about.
"Dreams come true; without that possibility, nature would not incite us to have them." John Updike.
"There are nights when the wolves are silent and only the moon howls." -George Carlin.
"The gloom of the world is but a shadow. Behind it, yet within reach, is joy. There is radiance and glory in the darkness, could we but see, and to see, we have only to look. I beseech you to look." -From a letter written by Fra Giovanni, 1513.
It is about Love, Nature, and Unconditional Love.
