As a writer, words are the very essence of who I am. So if I happen upon beautiful musings, I feel compelled to share it.
Poetry is one of those things that encapsulate the expression of beauty and art. I voraciously devour it, feeding my overtly romantic nature. It fills me with emotion that cannot be explained in words.
I am fortunate enough to have a friend who is immensely talented and now awake enough to share his talent with the world. I have selected a few of his pieces that touched me deeply, in the hope that it would evoke some feeling in you.
To Viv:
Your gift is inherently the essence of who you are. Share it. We aren’t here to play small!

The Tides of Love
I answer this yearning,
Uncontrollably, this call to myself
That pulls me toward you
I rise, carried by your love
Reaching the highest heights of myself
And safely do I fall to you
When I break to my lowest depths,
Finding myself anew
Upon feeling your touch
As the full moon of your smile
Warms each drop of my heart
I come again to Life,
Rushing to you,
Melting into you,
Flowing with eternal Oneness,
Dancing a never-ending Joy,
Splashing Love’s canvas
With the colours You and I.
**************************************
Love We Are
From moment to moment I wait
To be with you but for a minute
I would give up lifetimes well lived
For a small piece of happiness shared
With the soul of my soul
You,
In whom I complete and am complete
You,
Whose smile is all it takes to calm my storms
And when I die in the nights of your leave
Only You,
Bring the sun back to life
Never did I long to live forever
Till the day You and I chose to remember,
Love we are and Love we make,
Loving always for Heaven’s sake.
***********************************************
When I breathed You In
Light of Love, you have touched my spirit,
Left Your eternal waves on the ocean of my soul
Gave me new vision to see with wonder
Forever within a single moment’s embrace
Made me still, held me in silence
Listened with me to the voice of the Universe,
As She sang in ecstatic celebration,
Songs of joy as the two became One
Sharing a space just big enough for You and I,
Yet bigger than any dream I had ever seen,
You spoke aloud my thoughts, so long unspoken
And we gave of ourselves only what was ours to receive
I am finally free, infinite in our togetherness
Warmed by the rays of the sun of our Love
At last I can say I have lived true happiness,
Even if for just a fragile whisper in time
My Life, my Love, my Joy unending,
Forever Yours and forever mine.
