Shades Of Love

Words
keep silent
As your eyes tell
In a thousand ways
About all the shades
of love

Those eyes know more
than
any man,
any woman,
any word
could tell

The Other Side Of The Shore

And I walked
along the coastline
Dreamt of
the other side
of the shore
Drew a heart
in the sand
Then the waves
took the heart
away

Now the sand
is just the sand
Though the ocean
holds the treasure
of the land
And takes it
all the way
to the other side
of the shore
That’s
where my heart is

Song Of My Heart

When it is quiet at night
The world is asleep
and it’s dark all around
You lighten my dreams

You’re on
this song
of my heart

A fountain of sounds
that tenderly
caress
the silence

A playful melody
Orchestrated
by God’s angels

And on this journey
towards the dawn
I hold the light
inside
This song
of my heart

I Believe

I believe
in a sun
that can turn
the land into gold
In white birds
that emerge
from the fog
In flowers
that arise
from the mud
In harmony
that can be heard
within chaos
In stars
that align
to what is destined
to be one
And put into place
what has fallen apart
How I believe
in us

My Always Love

I could love
the stars out of heaven,
the moon out of the night’s sky
You’re my always love
My in all ways love
That is beloved
forever
and beyond

On Top Of The World

Here on top of the world
on top of the love
All is liquid
All is one
There is
no me
no you
Only an us
that holds the world

Pure Poetry

Words dance, sing
in front of me
Pure magic melts
into a verse
You’re like poetry
that writes itself

Love Doves

Is it true
that today
heaven’s blue looks
even bluer than blue?
And the houses of white
are brighter than bright?
People who pass by
give me their smile
And palm trees
of greenest green
wave excitedly at me
Doves do a love dance
Then go up into the sky
I let me,
let you go
Birds just need
to fly

Leaving Leaves

The Fall falls down
Heavy on my shoulders
Harvest moon that shines
Upon the lovers’ souls
Blessed is the Autumn wind
That takes us far from here
And blows us
into the comfort of our dreams

Soon you will leave this land
Like the leaves leave the tree
Though there is no goodbye
Always a welcome
To the one I hold dear

And we both know
Winter will knock at our doors
Cold will push us inside
But then let us warm us
With the promise of Spring

So You Will Know

I asked the blackbird
To fly over to you
And sing you
The song of my heart

I asked the clouds
To drift towards you
To show you
The shape of my heart

So you will know

Simplicity Poetry

I love you
You love me

And
all the rest
is just
crap

Cup Of Love

I am on the other side of the river bank
And I hold my cup of love
up high
Precious nectar of the heart
that flows
Shimmering divine
I’d like to offer it to you
But I came from far
and I’m so tired and thirsty
now
So let me drink it first
Then please choose
If you’d like to drink
from this sacred cup of mine
If your heart is open
to receive
‘Cause this cup of deepest love
is for the braves
Who are willing to lose
everything they once believed in
And maybe
You too would like to share
your cup with me
And unblind me
with your truth
We only have a bridge to cross
So let us meet halfway
Let us be drunk by love
Drunk by our truth

Grounded In Love

The heavens open up
I flow with the water
Tears merge with raindrops

You’re so close
Though I cannot touch you
I see you within
Though you’re not here

Wounds are aching
A heart is moving
I am whirling around
With the wind

I ground myself in love
Earth myself in heaven
And in the eye of the storm
I am at peace

Just You, Just Me

If we could erase
The words
And embrace
The unspoken
If we could
Unwrite
And untell
The story of us
If we could fly
Out of the lines
And not even name
The love
Then we would stay
In the blank open space
Of
Once there was
Just you and
Just me

Mystery

I tried to grasp you
with my mind
Unlock you
With my thoughts
Tried to
Describe you
Unfold you
Unwind you
Define the divine you
But what exists
beyond the concept
Flying free
within the heart
Cannot be understood

Inspiration

She is still with me: Inspiration. She gently breathes the words into me. This white angel, does she come from heaven or from hell?
And now she even keeps me out of my sleep.

I ask her to leave, I don’t want her near me here. I tell her to go bother someone else.
This heart drown in pain doesn’t want to swim to the surface no more.
But she is still there, she smiles and invites me into her space.

I put my hands over my ears.
I don’t want to hear the words she blows to me.
I close my eyes.
I don’t want to see her flowing source of light.
I cover my heart.
I don’t want to feel how her touch has opened it.
But even then she is still there.

I tell her I can’t do it. I can’t do what she asks of me.
But she only smiles and then slowly whispers in my ear:

Write… just write
