Revelations (Lune Series)

Tell me about.

Something that you hold close.

To your heart.

Share with me.

All off the relevant details.

Never hold back.

Those are important.

They describe all you share.

With much digression.

Be not afraid.

I will not hurt you

With this knowledge…

Wish Me A Fish

Wish me a fish 

Make me a dish 

That is delish

Fulfill my wish.

Tell me a tale 

About a whale

Who, without fail

was never frail.

Sing me a song 

I’ll sing along

Would that be wrong

Would it belong?

Share a secret 

Never forget 

Alone regret

Is a tough bet.

Show me your dance

I’ll watch you prance

Per happenstance

At my first chance.

Let’s end this rhyme

It’s about time 

and not a crime

Likely sublime…

The Late Great Johnny Ace by Paul Simon off of Hearts and Bones Circa 1983

I posted this back on July 19 of this year and for whatever reason I’m just thinking of this song right now as we come close to the anniversary of the of the murder and subsequent death of John Lennon.

I was thinking of writing a post about this, and I forgotten that I already had. Just wanted to re-share it with many of you who may not have seen it before or may not be allowed to see it for other reasons I can’t control.

I hope you enjoy it again or for the first time and please listen to this song. It’ll really do something to you. It has everything like I mention in my brief article below.

This just does something to me every time I hear it. it’s got everything hope happiness, love, sadness, heartbreak, and this beautiful eulogy at the end in this lovely coda by Philip Glass. It’ll break your heart. A touching tribute to Johnny Ace and John Lennon.

Check it out below, I think a lot of you may not be familiar with it.

Divine Timing Love Happens (Just not Right Away for Some)

Originally Published 04/21/2024

One day we’ll grow old together

Put our pieces each in place

Share many years through all weather

And each the wrinkles on our face

Finding adventure each unfurled

Dancing to our very own beat

Many travels all over the world

Excitement lies before our feet

No matter the time your eyes are the same

Your smile hasn’t changed at all

I’m smitten that is to blame

And every day in love I fall

I manifest your existence

Each night in my dreams

My true love persistence

Is more than it seems

One day our story will come to be

And we’ll be the envy of others

A new standard for all to see

When our dream life uncovers

Holding hands on porch swing

Watching the evening pass

Fly high on passion’s wing

With many great times to amass

We’re never too old to find a love of our lives

I’m 52 and I’m well on my way

Despite my two and a half ex wives

All my lessons learned and used here today

Synchronies daily often appear

11:11, 1:11, 3:33, and 2:22

All conformation a great future is near

And these numbers portend, well, you

When this happens, brightly clear

A divinely timed union we’ll be

As it happens I’ll blog it right here

Giving hope for all the world to see…

A Fine Evening: Lune Series

A splendid meal

The best dinners to eat

Along with candles

We go home

And relax on the couch

Sharing life together.

Music gently plays

Dave Brubeck and his quartet

Never sounded better.

We get closer

Holding each other and talking.

Both breathing faster.

I kiss her

When the moment is right

She straddles me.

Our lips locked

We share a sultry dance

Leading then following.

Turning my head

As she turns her head

In perfect synchrony.

We lock hands

And head to the bedroom

Discarding ubiquitous shoes.

Climbing the bed

We meet at its middle

Continuing our dance.

Kissing her neck

She nibbles on my shoulder

Our passions grow.

Shedding unneeded clothing

Mutual exploration of each other

Always using kisses.

For each leg

Of their sensual hot journey

Must be enjoyed.

We finally arrive

At a contented mutual destination

We both fall.

Very fast asleep

Sharing many lovely blissful dreams

Throughout the night…

Mutuality

Know me?

Know my words

Show me

And you’ll be heard.

Like me?

Just say so

Hate me?

Just say “No”

Need me?

I’ll be there

Heed me

Because I care.

Feel me

I feel you

Heal me

I’ll help you too.

Write me

I’ll write you

Sight me

As I see you

Show me

That you care

I can see

You are aware.

Get me

I get you

Fit me

I’m your friend too.

Help me

We’re a tribe

We’re free

All to be alive.

Feelings, The Poet’s Muse

Art: Poet And Muse – By Valentine Tusai

Love and heartbreak are my muse

In my writings and my truths.

To feel those extremes and feel them hard

And put them in words with careful regard.

To share the purest and darkest of feelings

With life’s happiest and saddest dealings.

Is a privilege and not a curse

Processing emotions and not feeling worse.

Finding common ground with all around

Relating your words in your blog abound.

I keep writing, day and night

Trying to get the rhythms, right.

And when I want to break my norm

I try out new poetic forms.

I like the technical aspects that apply

Just fitting in words and figuring out why.

In the end when it’s time to share,

I make my edits and choose with care.

Lest my poetry goes off the rail

Which would be an epic fail…
