I Aim To Be The Phoenix

I aim to be the Phoenix
who rises from
the red, burnt ash
and
blacken stones
that
are the damages
and
challenges
of my life
that I let defeat me

I aim to be the Phoenix
who rises above
my negative inner self
and
negative outer voices
that I let
drag and beat me down

I aim to be the Phoenix
who rises and soars
high up to the golden white sun
to spread my wings and fly
like the Phoenix’s
shimmering
misting
glistening wings of clouds

Up there I will be healed

Up there I will be happy

Up there I will be free

With impish twinkle
in her eyes
her hands lusciously
lift the lid
The tantalizing
aroma whiffs up
and she sighs
with anticipatory pleasure
Her cheshire smile
deepens
Thumb and index itch
to delve into
the box of
chocolate delight
Choice made
she lifts it to her
waiting lips
Opens
Places
the tempting morsel
on her
foretasting tongue
Her eyes close
and
she sighs
with
sensual
concupiscent
pleasure
She smiles
deeply
widely
as each delectable
chocolate note
sings
and melts
into her

Slowly her eyes open
She gazes around
and says
“…and that is the way to enjoy your chocolate!!”

God Bless and God Speed to you dear Anna Berger. Thank you for the gift of your love. You will always be a light in our lives. xxxooo

Always

To My Walter

My heart
My love
My friend
Always
You and I have walked
many
long and rock filled roads
filled
with unforeseen trenches
one after
another
our bond
greatly tested
and
stretched
did
not break

I will love you
Always
Forever…

Standing on the outside

Standing on the outside
looking in
hands holding strings
making moves
watching
but
not participating
day in
day out
nights blending
into
each other
on and on
it goes
on and on
this life
flows
never ending
never ceasing
movements weakening
one by one
they disappeared
now alone
standing on the outside
looking in
fading
away

Memories of Her

I search
to find memories
of love
between my mother
and I
and
not let
the harangued remembrances
corrupt
It is very
hard
The bad ones
interfere
too much
I long
I need
to remember her
with love
I know
there were
some
good times
They are
like precious pearls
Lucent
suffused memories
I do love her
but
I am
still
choked
in pain
Frozen inside
an important
part
of me
The need
to protect
myself
is so
strong
yet
the binds that
choke me
are
becoming
tighter
Squeezing me
Squeezing the breath
out of me
Squeezing the heart
out of me
Squeezing my soul out
My pain is too much
The binds must be shorn
before
I break
Must find a way
to sever them
The key
is my memories
Memories
of her
My mother
Remembering
the good
Remembering
no matter what
she
did love me
Life
is not perfect
Healing
is in
forgiving
Can I forgive?
Is it
in me to?
I think so
It resides
in the memories
The memories of love

Do I…?

Will the proverbial shoe drop
like it always does?
Do I dare to be happy?
I am so filled up with joy
Things seem to FINALLY
be going my way
Do I DARE to believe?
Do I Dare to let out my breath?
Do I STOP looking over my shoulder?

I am so happy
so giddy
I thank my lucky stars
I THANK GOD
for the Blessings
in my life now
but
is it all
a beautiful
but fleeting dream?
Am I going to wake up
and find
it was not real
and
I am really in the usual pain
and struggle?

I pray God
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE
Let it NOT be a dream
Let this JOY
this HAPPINESS
this BLISS
be my REALITY now
and the pain, struggle and sadness
behind me
I will not forget it
I will ALWAYS be grateful
and
THANKFUL
to YOU
my Precious Lord
for YOU have made this
wonderful reality
possible…

Kissing You

In the brightness of day
and in the deepness of night
I have luscious thoughts
of our bodies entwined
touches that are exquisite…divine
You who thrill me
I will enthrall you
Be the fire in your blood
and rays of sun that cascades over your flesh
I am the sweet pungent honey on your tongue
I will kiss you
till your head spins
and you are out of breath
which causes you
to crumple to your knees
Then
I will kiss you more…

Heat of an Afternoon……..

In my shadowy bedroom
The heat of the day
trying to
be kept at bay
by the drawn bamboo curtains
The whirr of the fans
the only sound
A single drop of moisture
runs down between my breasts
I wonder
what it would be like
to have you
catch that drop
with your tongue
What it would
feel like
to have your lips
in that valley
between my breasts
blowing
on the damp skin
I feel a tell tale pressure
starting
to build deep
within
down to my core
How would you
ease my ache?
Reduce this pressure?

I wait
to be explored…

Waiting No More

I tremble
at the thought of
your hands on my body
the taste of your mouth
the scent of your skin
the knowledge
the truth
that soon
you will be with me
surrounding me
in me
after all
this time of waiting
and
after many joyous hours
of our mutual loving
I would sleep peacefully
by your side
blissfully wrapped in your arms

But now
at THIS moment
you are far away
I am chilled
I yearn
I need
you here to ignite me
to warm me
I want you
on me
over me
devouring me
in me
filling me
with your molten heat
Your hands playing my body
making me sing

Time
do not tease me
any longer
Bring you
my lover
to me
