Something To Hold

Though wishes are a wondrous treat,
I dare you to lay before my feet
something that I may hold.
For stars,
they may go out
and wishes seldom come true,
but for those that love a story told
a fairy tale may do.
Some prefer the tangible,
something a little more manageable,
…maybe even you.

Tall Tales

Talk to me
     and tell me tales
     of riches beyond reach.
Moonlight walks
     on star dusted paths
     of a distant, sandy beach.
Make me feel Like a princess
     if only in my dreams.
Rides of joy
     on the wings of a pony
     dancing between sunbeams.
Spin a story
     of lavish love
     told to only me.
Drunken on
     the spirits of tales
     that I wish could truly be.

Falling Softly

falling
        softly.
                 surrendering.
                 to the warmth
                          between our bodies 
                          entwined in passion
             touching each other
                 inside and out
                     our souls
                               d
                                 a
                                   n
                                 c
                                   i
                                    n
                                  g
                                    together
                                to the rhythm
                                  of our love
                                          breathless
                                                      and
                                                       stolen
                                              moments hidden
                                            between moments
                                                      in time.

Whispers of Whimsy

Paint me a picture
of horses flying through
sun dappled skies
leaving trails of happiness
in their tangled tracks.

Sing me a lullaby,
a melody so full of love
that the words wrap
their soothing arms around me
and hold me in their tight embrace.

Whisper to me your secrets
and I will keep them safe
in this heart of mine
under lock and key
until the end of my precious time.

Love me like you mean it.
