snow ...
falling ...
softly .. silently

floating ...
down ..
down to the ground

covering ..
a raw ..
dark naked world

transforming ...
the cold
dingy gray

into..
a pure ..
placid pristine womderland

hail spring!
harbinger of hope!
rebirth of the cycle
of life and death

hail spring!
when all is new
and fresh and clean
bright shiney white light

hail spring!
an empty slate
waiting to be filled
with visions and memories

hail spring!
closing the door
on all that has been
and opening us up to fresh tomorrows

rain, rain
go away
come again
some other day
need the sun
to shine its rays
junkie bike gurl
wants to play

i am of soft fine silk
swirling in the warm breeze
woven tightly together
green blue lilac rose
my colors vividly enhanced
illuminated brilliantly in
morning sunlight

i am of soft fine silk
embracing my feminine
both gentle and strong
my colors rising up from
the depths of my soul
and shining brilliantly across
the morning sunlight

the space that exists between us
will help me to much more clearly understand
the space that exists between us

when i am too close to you i cannot focus
you transform into my blurred imagination
and i myself vanish from the lens

i have loved you
in another moment
in another lifetime

i awoke in the windows of your eyes
which lit my entire universe
as my heart awoke from its long slumber
spellbound by your mesmeric essence
in the boundlessness of space and infinity

i have loved you
through our roaring raging fires
the burning heat of our desires
as the flames slowly diminished to smouldering embers
by our blindness in the thick fog of its smoke
at last to cold gray ashes at the end of the long night

i have loved you through the agony ...
of our conflicting expectations
of our very sad misunderstandings
of our polar oppositeness
through the deadness in your eyes
the seeping black of midnight
in a starless, moonless sky
and the deepest darkest part
of our existance

i have loved you
in the first rays of morning sunlight
your glory shining in your face
your beauty echoing in your laughter
your passion throbbing on your lips

i am both weak and nothing,
and strong and invincible
within the boundaries
of your embrace

i have loved as you took me
by the hand and led me
down the paths of utter ecstacy
and total destruction
to the secret garden door
of a magical place
that exists only deep inside of me
and have shown me my reflection
in your clear and placid face

i have loved you through the twilight
of your silence
the ceasing of your motivation
the world of lives between us
until.....
we have stopped breathing
together

i have always loved you
and i love you still....

to my valentine....

there is a cave inside
that exists only for you

a door
with only your name on it

it remains in the nighttime
until you enter

and shine your light
on the beauty that lives within

it is of rainbow walls and rose petals
of sparkling river currents

the sun never stops shining
and the moon lights the dark crevices

the stars float all around us
heaven is right here in front of us

you are my heartbeat
you are my breath

all my life begins here in this moment
when your arms are wrapped around me

and the pulse of your breath
is in my ear
