Thin Air

The words hold themselves
I have no way of propulsion
You, where my thoughts lay
May be scared how they lie

Unable to hold or elucidate
I only wish of her lost ether
Readers, in their lonely rooms
Call out; it is the other lovers cry

Pre Prenuptial

I tried to believe I could let go
Even before we started
I wanted to show, define
That my love was strong &
However long we were together
The treasure would have been mine

I would be sure & secure enough
To wish you much future happiness 
On the day that we would surely part
Yet once started by your refinement
I inclined to play the game too well
& lost. I reassigned my trial belief. Go

Aznavour

She, woman of man's life
Where would we be, without 
Her otherwise attractions

He, man of woman's life
Who would otherwise
Be, less of undue distractions

Glow If You Dare

Flames are lowered
Curves of decay amongst the embers
Turned pages of picture books
Remember those past Decembers

Lend her the lyric hooks
Sing songs of joy and tenderness
Suppress at once the sideways looks
That is not the way to send her

Fend off your depression
Close up the downbeat crooks
With the light of her impression
Share those romantic nooks & crannies

Play her Danny and the Champions of the World
Swirl her on to the dance floor
More you shout, folklore edicts the damsel fair
Rare as the sacred whirled through wilder air

Care of the curved decay
Whose lowered tones blend with her wishes
Superstitious as she has become
Run now, run your words down to the floor

The core is gone
The story slowly flickered, lest it shone

Egg Light

The daydreams were pink eggshells
The night dreams were duck egg blue
Love dreams were of pure white you
The farms morning sun shone bright
