You speak of afar
as if I am light years away
yet I am as near a wish
you can have any day
I am but a poem
in distance from you
a few words, a stanza
or a verse or two
Never give . . .

Ole man river
sashays on down stream
humming tunes I know
my soul catching its beam.
I can feel the breeze
lifting my wings.
With every lapping wave
hear the song it sings.
I can inhale . . .

When I finally embrace you
should I feel the woman who was
or treat you as you are now
concerned and caring just because.
When we finally sit to have our chat
shall I imagine your yesterdays . . .

No ma'am, don't tell me your secrets
I don't want to know you that well.
This is not one of those occasions
thought it was to be our show and tell.
You showed me those sad . . .

The yard seems to quietly beg
for me to tend its spring hair
though the calendar marked the day
winter still lingers in the air.
The sun came out of the shadows
today as if it tried to be . . .

They asked me to keep the roses
to tend then as if she were still here.
Rains every weekend since then
kept me in a sort of gardener's fear.
Cold air and winds blew relentlessly
forcing . . .

When I am tired and weary
sometimes I write in beige
when the write is over
I then turn the page.
When things get down
like sometimes they do
I just keep on writing
tho the outcome is . . .

I want to be the breeze
that caresses your face
the kiss on your lips
leaving not a trace.
I want to be the heartbeat
pumping deep inside
A sail boat on the waves
of your ocean tide.
I want to be . . .

Collard greens
smoked neck bones
a common thread
for Delta's moans.
Rivers flowing south
depositing silt
brings with it traditions
that do not wilt.
Sweet potato pies
buttered . . .

Is it a strange time or just me
wallowing through steps of grief.
Torrid dreams thru sweaty nights
with nothing in mind for relief.
Often something around the house
produces . . .

It is I who lurks near
stumbling from indecision
wanting to touch while
you're in my line of vision.
It is I who lingers in the corner
with a wanting yearn
yes, that was my breath

Oh my goodness, it is time
I saw a sundress this morn
laying on fluid curvaceous hips
just where tingles are born.
Mother nature helping in the view
allowed visions to aid with ease.
Just . . .

I've been known to meet them
and today this one was real good.
I had not planned to look at any bids
but she wasn't far out of the hood.
I called to confirm the address . . .

I chuckled when she said
my writes made her moist.
Maybe antsy and a little naughty
by what those poems voiced.
When I write most times its not
only for me but for the reader.
That's . . .

I allowed my eyes to rove
seeing a statuesque female walk.
Initially I saw nothing but pleasure
making my emotions start to talk.
From my vantage point I could see
each step produced a rolling . . .

I hear music when I see you
sweet tunes of joyful sounds
envelopes my senses totally
whenever you come around
I hear violins and harps
soothing to my inner soul
then an entire orchestra . . .

My sprit was awakened
you touched a chord inside.
Now my heart is entangled
with you right at my side.
I have stepped up, risen
realized a cloak unveiled.
Never knew such yearning
while . . .

In our fragil ponderings
we oft get carried away.
Candid emotions spill
checking not what we say.
With all do selfish dreams
awakened by the slightest touch.
Shadowing all our senses

Desire is an entrapment
forcing images and feelings
we love to linger within.
Raises heat we were not aware
was available
nor was in existence.
Desire can be an encumbrance
which . . .

She aches to know happiness
as troubling tides arise
and I bet she will one day
to her prayerful surprise.
Happiness shows its bloom
in forms returning again.
Not only in the opening rose . . .
