anticipation (Remove filter)
awakening (haiku cluster)
Chill spreads through the land,
Branches bare, skies hold their breath,
Snow's touch soon to come.
Frost whispers softly,
Bare earth awaits its white cloak,
Winter’s gift unfolds.
In twilight’s quiet,
Hope stirs with each frosty breath,
Snowfall's gentle kiss.
Trees reach silent arms,
Night's first flake drifts to the ground,
World awakens bright.
Hearts lift in still...

Every Part of You
I want every part of you on me
Catch my rhythm baby
Let me pound you to the beats of our hearts till our souls get lost
Lets find them in each others eyes
Give me something to play with somewhere to start
Tell me where you want me to finish
That climax we been chasing is within our reach
Why are you running from me entering your domain we have been here to many times
Maybe ...

June
Let the anticipation build Let the angst grow inside your gut Allow it to rumble and tumble and wreck havoc on your insides Feel the magnetic pull when we lock eyes a little bit too long and struggle to break away Watch me watching you while trying to hide your prying eyes Don't you dare rush a thing

Water Street
This poem follows from my earlier work "Wet", set in the city of Cairns, Far North Queensland. Having reached the place, the next challenge is to figure out how to survive in the prevailing weather conditions: 100 percent humidity and massive daily rainfall. Air conditioning helps, somewhat.

Summer was the waiting for the Wet:
On Water Street, old Queenslanders

April Rain
Welcome overcast sky
from incessant heat
Drizzle gently falling
on freshly wet street
Feel is overwhelming
for indolence to set
With drop in mercury
and in rain to get wet
Odd for time of year
coming event it tells
Rains not lot farther
quelling of arid spells
Sprung as a surprise
catching all unaware
Speeding all measure...

Trading Places
Time to sever all alliances
shades dark which depict
No purpose those serve
and independence restrict
Had my share of amends
beliefs now must uphold
Fix impending glitches
skewed life thus remold
All of robbed past verve
it’s time now to beget
Seek out fresher vistas
sans cause for any upset
In environs carved out
conductiv...

Deemed Rapture
Some day in the future
dawn will break again
None be grudges nursed
or space for any disdain
Where vales be pristine
living modest and plain
Bliss ...

A Longing
At core of it all is yearning
to someone similar belong
Another there to relate to
and walk distances along
Bond in sort of perpetuity
till infinitum which extends
Joyous in times favorable
supportive in nasty bends
Tolerant of most nuances
offering emotional bind
Forever whetting intellect
as stimulus for the mind
