Days in the life of a poet

When life gets too complicated and our hearts and minds seek out what is good and provides us sustenance...poetry is the breath of life. Words allow us to communicate...to express that within us that is most precious and real. We crave that which is familiar and gives us comfort...read and receive*

This Moment...Just Listen

I want to promise you...
that I can love you
eternally and unconditionally
with the true visage of a man
of honorable intentions and

With the blessed moral stones
of ancesters long passed on
I can love you deeply; as
with the devotion of a child
and a man's sense of strength

I want to give to you...
all that is, that I am
or may become
every second of life I live
each dream we'll share as one;
I offer you, the heart of my heart

I want to ask you...
if I am the love you know
and if my need for you
is as equal as my desire...for joy
give your answer with a kiss
who better knows my soul*
