ENTWINED IN THE AFTERGLOW

 

Passions spent in our libidinous embrace

Loves contented glow upon her face

I feel safe lying entwined in the afterglow

But in the morn will love melt like April snow

Or will its strength sustain in longevity

Or shall we remark upon its easy brevity

I could lay here forever cocooned in eternal love

We are a perfect fit, the hand and the glove

But if it didn’t last forever I still had - this

Then gently on her soft flesh I leave a loving kiss

And I urged myself to live in the moment

And know that there I could be content

SHE’S THE BUTTERFLY KIND

 

She’s the butterfly kind

With a butterfly mind

Always moving she never sits

Her head is full of thoughts that flit

The butterfly miss

With the butterfly kiss

I CAN SEE YOU ARE BLESSED

 

I can see you are blessed

With love in your heart

I see it in your face

Radiant like a sunburst

The glow on your cheek

When he’s near you

And the clarity in your eyes

When you look at him

And that self satisfied smile

Of utter contentment

You are in love

Without a doubt

I can read you like a book

And I can see a love story

I LOVE YOU IS SOMETHING

 

”I love you” is something

You should only say

If you mean it

But if you mean it

When you say it

Say it all the time

In case she forgets it

IT ISN’T LOVE

 

It isn’t love, when you kiss all the time

Lust is what that is

The bits in between the kissing

Now that’s where the love is

 

SWEET HONEY BEE

 

Sweet Honey Bee

How we will miss you

And your honeyed words    

Well-crafted and poignant

Even finding humour

On your sad journey

 

Sweet Honey Bee

How we will miss your

Tireless support for others,

Less talented than you

Such as I, with your

Patient kind encouragement

 

Sweet Honey Bee

How we will miss you

Now the world is a sadder place

Without you in it

But the eternal meadow

Is now graced with another Honey Bee

LOVE ARRIVED LIKE A TEMPEST

 

Love arrived like a tempest

Sweeping him off his feet

Leaving him breathless

And trembling in its wake

But although the storm

Was a wind of change

Which altered him forever

It was not a breath of fresh air

Her love was toxic

She controlled like a terror

And even loves betrayal

Could not break the spell
