Green

Is the money that cultivates greed Are the lights when you hit them right When he is brand new and doesn’t know better That feeling on the top story, sailing on the ocean The cool grass beneath my feet instead of concrete streets Carpeted dreams on rolling hills chasing the sun into the horizon

Coming Home

When I feel like giving up, again I want to fall into your arms Where I know I’m safe from harm As you hold me bound together  ~ Picking up the tattered pieces Providing me everything I need Familiar comfort and stability Allows me to breathe and succeed

Water

Always fluid Has no enemy Pours freely Meeting needs ~ Every being’s Clear survival Springs to life A damp revival  ~ Washing away Filth each day Under a spray Fresh bouquet

A Walkabout

I want to bare my soles With you and take a stroll While holding on to your hand To walk across the vast land Soaking sun-rays as it tans Leave footpaths in the sand Sloughing away our worries Walking without a hurry Step over the grassy edge Onto the lush, moist sedge Cool healing gives

Evening Glow

Come with me for a little walk Holding hands while we laugh and talk Travel to the enchanted land Lay a blanket out on the sand Where we wait for the rising moon Listen to her glorious tune Splash a few fingers of whiskey Starting to feel a bit frisky Basking in the warm evening glow

Dancing Flames ~ #FWF

Alter Reality

Surrounded by vanity Losing our authenticity Lacking any shame Over personal gains Descend in shallow depths Until there is nothing left Whispers in the night Calling to the forthright Revolt this plight Choose to fight Refuse the insanity Mark your own reality

Snatched: Breaking Through the Surface

Trapped in the frigid waters she fought frantically to reach the surface, feeling as if she was splitting her head wide open, right down the

First Encounters

As soon as he entered the room Jana noticed. She always noticed, but never had the nerve to actually speak with him even though there were plenty on opportunities in the hall or in their sociology class. She knew that he never bothered with her because she was an average girl that didn’t really standout

Summer Adventures

In every girls life; there’s a boy she’ll never forget and a summer where it all began.   “What do you want to do next?” Tony asked as they walked hand in hand along the wet sand. “Let’s climb across those rocks. I’ll race you to the end.” “No way. It’s too dangerous to race

“Let’s take a moonlight-stroll in the forest, while I share an ancient tale.”

  When Samantha saw the golden flecks shimmer to life in his eyes, her grin grew wider. To measure his reaction she boldly bit harder on her trapped bottom lip before releasing it to guide her tongue back and forth across the sensitive, swelling flesh.  A giggle escaped her, breaking the spell and brought Dustin

In Sleep

I call out to you in the darkness All tangled in the twisted sheets Tossing and turning trying to find you In the still of the night I reach out for you My fingertips drift aimless about Nothing to hold me securely in place A cold chill fills the room with despair Time passes by,
