Love washed over me
Arriving at my feet,
Like the lapping of
waves
On a lonely beach
But it drifted away
On the ebb tide

LOVE WASHED OVER ME
GIGOLO AND GIGOLETTE
Right from the start
He lost his heart
When the gigolo met
His lovely gigolette
And philandered no
more
Now he had his
paramour
SHOULD I RUN?
I ask myself
Should I run to you?
And keep our secret
tryst
For that sweet joy
Of being kissed
I ask myself
Should I run from you?
And protect my heart
But endure the pain
Of being apart
So I must ask myself
What joy exists
In sterile safety
Compared to being
kissed
So I run to you
To the love and
chemistry
And drown myself
In your sweet serenity
I FOUND MY ONE TRUE LOVE
I found my one true love
My soulmate and when
I first laid eyes on
her
My eyes saw only
beauty
And at once I heard
music
Where there was
clearly none
But I heard it
nonetheless
I could tell she heard
it too
And she smiled at its
significance
So I returned the
smile
To my heart’s desire
And then we were
caught-up
In an all embracing
kiss
THE LOVE IN US
The love in me
Touches your heart and
soul
And I feel a love
divine
The love in you
Touches my heart and
soul
And we share a love
divine
The love in us
Binds us body and soul
And we bask in a love
divine
WHY IS IT THAT LOVES TEMPERATE FLAME
Why is it that
Loves temperate flame
Cools the bearer over
time
Why is it so sweet
And yet so fleeting
And why does love
Fill a heart with joy
Yet age the lovers
Like a wilting flower
OUR FIRST MEETING WAS BENEATH
Our first meeting was beneath
A sky of perfect blue
When a shaft of summer
sun
Set your copper hair
ablaze
Unspoken smiles were
exchanged
Followed by silent
acknowledgement
And love bloomed like
a desert flower
After fall of summer
rain
