love – Ancient Skies

Simply Filled

100_1124

We cannot possess love and hold it tightly,

but we are simply filled –

allowing it to move in us

from a stream

to the power

of a river,

to an ocean

untamed,

and covered

by an endless sky.

The Beauty and the Light

There are times, when terror threatens our poetry

not finding the words within our tears.

But we must never give up on our beauty

instead cherishing the light. Within love

we remain forever

human.

Standing with Manchester today.

Where Did It All Begin, My Love?

Where did it all begin, My Love? you embracing my spirit

drawing me into your essence, as if we had always known

each other? The smell of your hair, your eyes

holding infinity, I was lost in you

from the beginning. Perhaps

it was the depth of your dark brown skin,

I had never known such beauty

before you.

Where did it all begin, My Love?

I’m still lost.

In Our Miracles

In our spirits My Love, we are the flowers, having received our gifts

surviving the sun and the rain, the roughness of brush

a few storms bending

our wills, but we live for the beauty now

and the miracles

of our colors blending.

Renewing the Light in Each Other’s Eyes

It’s ok to fall in love in the spring, or to fall in love

all over again. Renewing the light

in each other’s eyes, dreaming

of oceans, and heartbeats

forgotten, promises

wrapped in each other’s arms

never ending.

Closing your eyes again, dreaming.

What You Really Love

“Let yourself be silently drawn,

by the strange pull

of what you really love.

It will not lead you astray.”

Rumi

In the Woods by the Lake

20170503_163642

When the war starts, and the missiles are descending

you will find My Love and I, in the woods by the lake

holding each other, surrounded

by creation, and the way it used to be

as our spirits quickly ascend

into eternity.
