Please listen to me.

All may seem lost right now.

It’s just a journey.

It’s not set in stone.

The fates are not finished yet.

Heal and move forward.

I know you’re shattered.

And your heart feels like it’s gone.

You will love again.

Honest it’s the truth.

Heal and be your highest self.

Manifest your dreams.

This is not bullshit.

Building up the best life ever.

Is what you will do.

One day at a time.

You will become whole again.

A bright shining light.

Stand tall at the peak.

Most in the world never touch.

All that you can sense.

Most will never feel.

The vast flood of emotions.

They are not alive.

Stand alone for now.

Knowing you are everything.

Beyond everyone.

One in a trillion. Unique?

An understatement.

You, truly are, love.

Earth is just stupid.

Spirituals suffer the most.

Love is just that hard….

I Kissed Her

I kissed her freckles and stroked her thighs

Kissed her face and gazed in her eyes

I kissed her arm and kissed her hands

I kissed her belly button and had other plans

I kissed her toes and kissed her nose

I kissed her neck carefully, so nothing shows

I kissed her ankles I kissed her ink

I kissed her on the kitchen sink

I kissed her on the small of her back

I kissed her as her head arched back

I kissed her eyelids and kissed her lips

I kissed her wrists and caressed her hips

I kissed her forehead and kissed her chest

I kissed her elbows and all the rest

I kissed her ears and nibbled with intention

I kissed her in places that I cannot mention

I kissed her body and it’s beauty was a feast

I kissed her all night to say the least…

Mighty Ophelia.

See you at the meeting place.

My soul needs warming.

Please bring your music.

I’d like to sing together.

Sonic love moves me.

Catching the giggles.

Endless laughter between us.

Added to our fun.

Dressed like a Tomboy.

Chucks, rock teeshirts, mini skirts.

So adorable.

Hazel eyes that warm.

A touch that boggles the mind.

Lips softer than silk.

Freckles on dark skin.

Body, firm that haunts my dreams.

A soft alluring voice.

Such beautiful legs.

Shapely and quite beautiful.

Like the rest of her.

Let’s melt together.

Conglomerate our passions.

Meet in a warm space.

Tangling our legs.

Always led to better things.

Like many kisses

Passionate kisses.

Your embrace is all I need.

It’s food for my soul.

Biting her right hand.

To stifle screams of pleasure.

Pleasing all her needs.

A mirror to each.

We could read each other’s mind.

Thoughts preceded words.

Though time has passed since.

You left an eternal touch.

On my very soul.

One day she was gone.

She drifted far far away.

From lover to friend.

There is no goodbye.

I will always feel your touch.

In my deepest dreams.

-aaa ❤️🔥❤️

A love that Almost Was…

Fire was in your eyes.

Embers spreading from your soul.

Fire’s out of control.

Love was in your heart.

Sweetest dreams were in your mind.

The passionate kind.

Gentle was your touch.

Your soft hands are everywhere.

Touched my face and hair.

Quite warm was your smile.

It would stop and melt my heart.

Adored from the start.

Velvet was your skin.

Silky-soft freckled and tan.

I once as your man.

So girly your laugh.

Higher pitched and very sweet.

Your humor a treat.

I’m so glad we met.

Those times I’ll never forget.

I have no regrets…

-aaa

Caresses

“Touch me very softly”, she said

So I caressed her precious head

Running my fingers through hair

I can hear her gently sigh

Her feelings safe with none to fear

She closes both of her eyes

She drifts and floats to welcomed sleep

I hold her and her breathing is deep

She has a dream of a crystal clear lake

And the waters ebb in gentle waves

I have my dream, but I am awake

Receiving the love that my heart craves

She awakens well rested after a while

And I continue to hold her with a smile…

-aaa ❤️

Ethereal Cosmos

True Love When Two Become One by Anthony Falbo

Sweet taste on my tongue.

Overwhelmed by your fragrance.

A million lilies…

A delicate touch.

Makes me tingle all over.

Softer than velour.

An endless embrace.

We cannot let go just yet.

Passion won’t let us.

Breathless long kisses.

Each its own eternity.

Of many desires.

The heat, relentless.

It’s burning flames lick our skin.

Setting us on fire.

We both are consumed.

Two hearts beat faster as one.

As we melt and merge.

We are at union.

We cannot outlast the stars.

We try with effort.

Our brightness now dims.

Falling fast through time and space.

We now gently rest….

Burn flames of desire.

Enjoy your passions fire.

Pleasure is a pyre.

Pleasures have just begun.

The two lovers become one.

Don’t want to be done.

Soft traces on skin.

Many goosebumps where they’ve been.

Wild passions within.

With chemistry here.

Completely devoid of fear.

Our purpose is clear.

Pleasure abound now.

Use your instincts, that is how.

Use them all to wow.

The feelings are good.

As powerful moments should.

Deep slumbers await a sun.

Breakfast or more fun?

Ocean Warmth

Originally posted and blasted 03/28/2024

soft beckoning fingers translucent blue greet me in the bright sunlight

cooling hot feet and instantly refreshing an overtaxed weary soul

gulls squeal overhead looking for something yummy or unguarded

opaque shapes don’t hide the sun as the warm breezes gently kiss

suddenly I inhale an entire grove of coconuts and she’s there

laying on a blanket bikini laden dark soft skin drinking up the sunlight

refreshment of her design in hand complete with umbrella and ice

sporting Jackie-O sunglasses and enjoying all life has to offer

legs trim and long and strong and beautiful bringing my mind to a place where pain doesn’t exist

she smiles a wry smile at me and as usual challenges me, I feel the shock as the cold water laps up my ankles

stepping ever forward I am washed in the spray of soft white foam the smoothly caresses my arms and legs as I enter

I duck and dodge a behemoth of a wave just as an airplane flies overhead affixed to the back, car insurance ads

it’s up to my neck now, be careful, many drown here that are younger and fresher

a helicopter juts by and I wave that I am ok as a wave slaps my face with its cold fingers

that slapped burned as the salt water swirls in my mouth and I spit it out

kelp, seaweed, aliens I am unsure what this stuff is but it entangles me just as the woman on the shore did

I grab a handful and chuck it away and await its magic re-emergence

I turn to shore and head in the direction of the woman as her coconut essence calls out to me

a warm smile greets me and warm lips as well just as a gentle ocean wind catches us both enveloping us

contentedness without limit, warmth without cold and desire without rejection…

The beach calls us all into her soft sensual arms.

Jack 🐶 And Jill 🐱

Jack and Jill not up a hill but lying in a bed

One curled up all in a ball the other rests her head

Lick attacks and lick attacks and end endless fur and hair

Makes the owner of the bed quite Jack and Jill aware

Playing games and chasing tails are their fitting fancy

For if they’re left with own devices then they’d get quite antsy

Jack and Jill not up the hill but sitting on a lap

Closing eyes weary from play and a quiet nap

-aaa ❤️

Dreamer of a Reality

I can taste your color

And it appeals to me

You are like no other

That I have ever seen

My heart flutters

When you are near

I’m melting butter

Each time you appear

Come closer to me

So I can see your face

An endless sea

Of beauty in place

Beautiful hair that’s heaven sent

And stunning eyes that stop my heart

Knowing now what the ‘others’ meant

Truly sets your uniqueness apart

I pinch myself am I awake

Or maybe you are just a dream

Feeling you makes my insides ache

Perhaps it’s somewhere in between…

Nana Mia I Miss You

Nana, where have you gone, why did you have to leave?

You were a huge part of my life since I began to breathe.

You left 8 years before your life ended, as the Alzheimer’s and dementia took your beautiful mind/personality/memory and obliterated it all.

You read all of my poetry and writings when I was a child and then as a young adult and you always encouraged me to keep at it. My first fan ❤️😊

Watching you rapidly disappear from yourself was beyond painful. I wouldn’t wish it on anyone.

I know if you had a choice you’d remain forever and I wish you could.

A hideous disease took away your memory of me well before that.

I miss your love and guidance.

I miss your laugh, if I try hard I can still hear it echoing in my mind.

I miss your cooking and ever so slightly broken- English.

I miss your stories of the old country.

I miss your calming energy presence in my life as these past 20 years have been challenging.

I am thankful for all you shared and showed and the mere echo of all of this is nice but nothing compared to your being here.

Thank you for building me up through those awkward horrible teenage years. It took a long time for women to get and frankly most still don’t, but I can hear you still sharply objecting to my self criticism and saying how handsome I was. Thank you for that I always felt like the greatest version of myself when I was around you.

Each time I see someone blog about their grandmother your loss hits me hard again.

So I say to everyone, love the important people in your life because they will not be a part of (in person) forever.

I wish I could hug you one more time and receive what we use to call a “nana kiss” which would leave dents on the jawbone from the shear force. 😂

I never could say goodbye and I never will.

Your love and touches on my life have made the man I am today.

So I thank you and hug you from afar but I cannot lie, it’s nothing compared to hugging you in person.

So “Rosarita Pizza Face” (family nickname) enjoy your eternity (you’ve earned it through love and sacrifice) and your rewards ❤️❤️

-aaa ❤️🌹

Longing

Longing to see your face again longing to see your smile.

Longing to be with you and go out again in style.

Longing to spend some time with you in a sweet kind endeavor.

Longing to spend some time with you time that could last forever.

Longing to hold your hand as we walk along the street.

Longing to stay in step with and land gently with your feet.

Longing to sing a song or two and share a lovely tune.

Longing to gaze into your eyes reflecting the gaze of the moon.

Longing to feel your warmth and kisses all over my head.

Longing to have you come and share a soft cozy bed.

Longing to find the words that can do justice for you.

Longing to see a laugh, smile, and giggle too…

-aaa❤️

Obsidian Delight

Obsidian beauty of dark delight let me love you and caress your tenderness.

Let me meet your warmth in turn with mine in a union of desire.

Hold me never let go and I’ll the share never-ending passion until the sun goes out.

Soft inviting lips beckoning soft touches with soft scarlet insides.

Tingles, tickle innards as a flock of butterflies fill a stomach.

Breathless, basked in their warmth, figures entangle with one another.

Knowing not where one begins and the other ends.

A rushing gush of pleasure washes over us as well gently collapse.

Into soft inviting surroundings never letting go of one each other.

Sunlight , basks her inviting features as the lucky lover takes her in.

Eyes never blinking for a moment making a mental etch of her stunning features.

Beauty such is this is typically reserved for the Gods, not mortals like I.

Luck is an understatement as the brilliant raven crosses the room cutting the distance between us all.

She’s mine for the moment and a small eternity can last forever.

With each kiss and touch, a piece of crimson narcissus falls away taking all pain and sadness that was in the wake…

Sweet Sleep Surrender

Feel me, I am near you

Whisper and I’ll hear you

Share those secrets with me

Then let go and be free

Time will slow down, you needn’t worry

The universe doesn’t make us to hurry

Let’s enjoy our silver lining

Meeting in divine timing

The wait we endured has been too long

Any longer and our story would be a song

Through thick and thin clichés galore

Do stay longer and I’ll think of more

Just hold me tight and never let go

Even if the advanced hour tells you so

As the night deepens, you finally rest

Laying your soft head on my chest

I feel my heart start to soar

As you gently snore

Breathing soft and safe at last

From the horrors of your past

I finally close my eyes and drift away

Before the evening turns to day

I won’t move an inch as you gently sleep

For I know its relief is peaceful and deep

Blackness now surrounds this bed

As I drift away and lay back my head

❤️Quantumess❤️

If I saw you right now what would I say.

If there were song for it what would I play?

If time were under control how would we clock.

If music were our favorite how would we rock?

If light is a relative thing how do we shine.

If hearts are to hold why not mine?

If challenge of change makes me burn 🔥.

Is the price of wisdom worth the spurn?

If the heartbreak was required.

Why wasn’t she mired?

If love is for the all.

Why wouldn’t she fall?

If growth is great and fear is small.

Did you just master walking tall?

I think it’s worth the price of purest gold.

To perfectly align with half of a soul… ❤️

Words, They Protect Us All

Words are our defense.

To cruelties of a cold world.

Countering the bad.

Providing a shield.

To the harsh realities.

We all must deal with.

New words every day.

Arise through inspirations.

Through experience.

Many lessons learned.

Through the mistakes of our pasts.

Reap many rewards.

They’re a catalyst.

For the words that preserve us.

A creative shield.

That blocks future pain.

Blotting out all the darkness.

And giving us, light.

Sentimental Old Fool

I think I am becoming a sentimental old fool at 52. I Happened to catch Willy Wonka And The Chocolate Factory streaming on TV and was suddenly 6 years old again watching the movie for the first time.

🍫

Relating to Charlie Bucket and the isolation he felt from his peers. His character was such a pure soul and he loved freely and fiercely even in the face of a rejection of the test from his most beloved idol.

🍫

He is then rewarded for his suffering and his family’s as well. That line at the end of the movie always gets me and light tears come down “What happened to the man that got what he always wanted? He lived happily ever after” He then tightly hugs Charlie and I just tear up every time.

🍫

Like I said, a sentimental old fool but I am who I am. The book was good but was more a lesson in behavior than the first film on which it was based. I even believe that I read somewhere that Dahl was initially unhappy with the film but later grew fond of it. It will always be one of my favorite movies somewhere inside I am that same child with older eyes…❤️

Delicious (For the Lovers out There)

D   elving deeper and deeper inside as I find.

one pleasure after another.

E   volving from a purely theoretical

friendship into a physical one as lips touch.

and accepting of mine.

I   timacy on all levels baked with the fires of

our desires as we descover unspoken

pleasures.

C   hoosing to embrace every soft inviting part,

an offer of open lips and mouth.

I   ntimidation melts from the place as I enjoy

each nuance.

O   ther things people disasters in the world

do not exist for those long enjoyed

moments.

consumed in the white flames of desire.

burn as those eyes did…

Passions in the Past

Portent eyes that pierced my heart

And warm smile from the start

Soft skin velvety so sweet

Made my senses feel complete

Soft scent of coconut all over

I took in her every feature as I’d hover

Shapely legs strong and firm

A shear perfection, the very term

Pursing lips I often miss

Soft and ready for a kiss

Toned body that reigned supreme

All her features are a dream

Laughter and passion while sharing space

Two fingers softly traced her body and face

I cannot forget the greatest part

Her brain, and passions for music and art

She slowly slipped away from me

We’re separate souls on an endless sea

Now a friend an acquaintance of sort

Reading my posts, a past cohort

Through her exit cut like a dull knife

I’m grateful for her indelible touch on my life.

Together At Last, My Ideal Manifestation

I know you so well I know your taste.

That ecstasy contorted look on your face.

I know your beautiful scent.

Destinations we came and went.

New adventures of pleasures await.

Passport for passions with an ideal mate.

Covered in kisses if you desire.

Bodies entwined in instant fire.

Any request that you want to make.

Fulfilled with as much as you can take.

Share with me a deep embrace.

Not a single moment goes to waste.

Chasing dreams just you and me.

The way it was supposed to be.

We met on a random distant shore.

Understanding how it didn’t work out before.

Karmic lessons of our pasts.

Relationships that didn’t last.

All don’t matter wow.

As we’re together now.

It’s all no sudden wonder.

That we manifested each other.

Now silently together in a soft bed.

I caress a weary head.

Your breathing is very deep.

We drift together off to sleep.

Tempest Tryst ☔️💃🕺☔️

Dancing together like a single form.

Keeps emotions infinitely warm.

Thunder will provide a steady beat.

To the rainy overture as dancers meet.

A flash of lightning brightens in light.

Providing a strobe for the duet tonight.

Dipping a partner in the growing breeze.

Winds wisp violently among the trees.

Hold each other in the potent deluge.

The soft inviting arms, a temporary refuge.

Kissing deeply in endless sheets of rain.

Serious doubts that either will complain.

Soft lips quenched drenched in moist dew.

Quickly stealing an embrace or two.

In an increasing maelstrom they twirl around.

Until resting together on dampened ground.

Passions increased, no care that it’s wet.

Seeing how much closer they can get.

Very dank clothes will get in the way.

Quickly removed as the dancers play.

Caressing hair, gently touching faces.

Warms insides, near, and faraway places.

Soaked to the bone, the puddles run deep.

Saturate two bodies in intimacy’s keep.

Sweet and tender skin almost too much.

Goosebumps appear where their lips touch.

Their own fury matches that of the storm.

Now a dance on ground, again single form.

The end of the dance they dress in the rain.

In water-logged clothes, none can complain.

Last a retreat: dry clothes, cottage, and fire.

A bed warm blanket, the dancers retire.
