Foolish Things

As
I….
Water Lily with
Rain and Sunshine
In hopes that she will grow

I watch her in her youth
For wisdom she does not know

She spites my hand
And neglects my knowledge
She is not in search of truth

She spits words of defiance
To my nurturing
And vomits out foolish things

She sputters in her growth
For she is not willing to “open”
Her pathway to enlightenment

I
Try
To
Instill
In the Water Lily
Metaphors of survival
And a vernacular feast
Of "spiritual" food
But she refuses to eat
From the tree of life

Rather she prefers
To wither and die

Like the foolish
Flower she is.........

That’s how I like him .

Passion and Desire

When he walks into the room, My heart flourishes The quiet storm begins The roar of my desire Blows boldly through the wind My stomach becomes the most vibrant tornado He’s the hurricane Taking part of my spirit, each time he goes My thoughts are of holding him Feeling his flesh The image in my head that our bodies will mesh I hear the horns blowing, with every footstep he takes The god of my dreams My love and soul mate. Passion and Desire are what captivate me by him I lose all power My body becomes limp Passion for his words, his voice, his thoughts Desire for his body, his hands, his touch Longing to feel more than his spirit I want to study his mind Man all I can think of is this man is soooo fine. His smile is like a sound wave to my soul Every time I see it I have no control My heart smiles too you see For he is all I want I dream of him, think of him, He motivates my charge He is the passion of my desire The one that I admire And he ...

Hey.....Love

Hey Love Been around the world with you It’s been quite a ride I’ve even shed a tear or two Hey Love I‘ve put in a major stake I’ve learned it’s not what you get Rather what you make In love Hey Love I’ve put my heart on the line for you I’ve had my ups and downs you know It’s all about the things you do Hey love Make me feel brand nu You send me on this roller coaster Of love……. In search of what’s true I’d give my all For your reality I’d sacrifice life For your truth I’d cross any river Climb any mountain Brave any fire Just to take part in you Hey love You stand the test of time Longing for your divine essence In hope that you’d always be mine Hey love You move me Soothe me Console me Control me Atone me Forgive me Bring life to me Live me Hey love I’d do it all again For you are not only my soul mate, But my lover and my friend Hey love I’d ride the waves of the universe Submersed in your abyss The finite resolution Of...
