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*

Unworthy


Even I…of poetic favor
…could not offer proper due
mere words so to offer
…love’s envelopment of mine soul

There be no muses’ influence
could bare such a gift witness
…to capture her worth, as I am
…humbled breathless…awestruck

Behold her grace…brightest light
…struck dumbfound and speechless
merely mortal in comparison
…in an Angel’s presence be I

No walking dream beheld
nor imaginations fervor
could elicit such excellent rapport
that encapsulate her sweetness

At a loss…I simply reach
for her tender hand and
…there leave a simple kiss*
