Missing you

It has been a long time since
I have been away from you
and tonight, I miss
your soft-glowing presence,
and the serenading shadows
conducting the silky symphony
of your peeling clothes.
I miss your reassuring steps,
as you approach the bed,
and the gentle sagging
of the mattress as you press down
to bend over to kiss my cheek
as I fall into a blissful sleep.

Red Sun 2

Mother Earth stirs, awakes
and flips her cozy blanket,
causing frenzied specks of dust
to distort sunlight.

Red Sun

The night flips over to day
like a book's slow-turning page
and the dust caused by motion
turns light waves to red.

Above the clouds

Golden sun rays flow
above the clouds - and below
silver linings glow.

Oceans apart

Separating seas.
You have sailed to distant shores -
your dawn is my dusk.

Victoria Falls

A river implodes!
Mist from the smoke that thunders
suckles soft seedlings.

My Plant

When I found you
you were like a plant
trampled in the mud
of your tears.

I picked you up
and replanted you
in the garden
of my love.

And I let my sun
shine on you
and my rain
nourish you.

And I watched you heal
and grow, and flowered...

Now I cannot stop
looking at you -
you are the most
beautiful thing
I've ever seen.

Grandson

You are the newest thread
in the tapestry of my life -
once neatly-patterned,
but now criss-crossed
and sig-zagged
with the vibrant strands
of your sister.

You, too, will be interwoven
into the fabric of my life
and be interlaced through
its brightness and hues
and be intricately entwined
and securely knotted
with one golden thread -
Love.

Kissing in the rain

Lime-scented orchard
flavours our luscious kisses
while gentle rain falls.

Love's salutation
awakens fervent longings -
desire cascades.

Caterpillar

Caterpillar dreams
of wings and sweet nectar -
while munching tough leaves.
