Panacea

Sadness suits you, telling your story
by the candle’s quivering light
drinking the fruit of the vine
a cloak of panacea for the soul.

Two as One

10217526355_c02072db20_k
I, this one who loves
                                                                     placing a passionate kiss
Capture the flowered moon
                                                                     on your pink stained lips
Wrapping with a faithful garland
                                                                     when I give my heart
Red roses,white lilies, rosemary
                                                                     your fragrance overwhelms
I will follow you into eternity
                                                                     as the scent of love surrounds me
Painting the vast universe
                                                                    with the colors of a rainbow
On your pure white soul
                                                                   staining my own to match
So we will always know
                                                                   our thoughts blend
When we meet
                                                                   two as one
Again
                                                                   forever

Author’s Note: Paul is hosting at d’Verse tonight and has asked us to write a contrapuntal poem. Essentially a contrapuntal is the combining of two separate poems. Both poems are mine. They can be read separately, or together. This is my first time to try this form.

Smolder

Passion Love Pencil Romance Amour Drawing Draw
Drowning in amber velvet of his golden eyes
as torrid heat radiates from his unwavering gaze
she yearns to feed the fire smoldering in his thighs.

The Meeting

conference-2110770_1280
Almost 22 years ago, I married a wonderful man. At the time, I worked for a very large company based in Sweden. Anyone care to take a wild guess?
It was my first week back from our honeymoon, and I had an important meeting with a lot of co-workers present.
