For Dreamy Georgia


For Dreamy Georgia

Waste no time with the whimsical…
expectations of sweet romance.

Mock anticipations of true love,

made-up prince in shining armour,

blinkers you with dust crammed reveries


Visit reflections…a jonquil moon…
floating across a midnight lake,

with a twinkling of gemstone stars.

Flawless images…scented allure…

circlets of petals, styled perfection,

untarnished visions for alert eyes


Liberate honeyed thoughts galore,
relish your world, heaven on earth.

Don’t miss life’s ember to celebrate.

Waste not your time in the maybe’s.

When it’s time for a love to emerge,

recognize the attraction within…

sincere feelings aren’t gossamer thin

unlike your fanciful dreams and…

you won’t have shattered your hopes.

To Fuchsia, Ballerina


To Fuchsia, Ballerina

Lissom, graceful, ballerina…do not float past.
I crave to learn the mystery of your innate soul.
As you dance away in your secluded garden,

am left bemused with the tale of your creation.

Free without connection, a reprieve desired,
an answer to a thousand unanswered questions.
Cast your petals to the wind… liberate my mind,
reveal those inner thoughts as to where, when and why.

Don’t leave me stranded with such strange disclosure.
Relieve me… past resentment, guilt and discontent.
Permit me please to remain within your flora.
Lissom, graceful, ballerina…do not dance away.
