Bending as the willow blows,
kneeling into the oceans love,
lapping waves as lips will meet,
dancing waters kissing at our feet.
Kisses under Moon~lit night
on sandy beaches take our flight.
Swirling seas of blue and green,
your heart will never go unseen
the willow tree sways softly hither to fro,
in breaths of winds the Fall wind blows,
breathing gasping in sweeping gentle sways,
leaves drop gently under dewdrops weight,
falling falling; settling to the loving earths ground,
trickling in trinkets is the leave's falling sound
Falling to the sandy yielding earth like tumbling leaves in autumns winds,
grasping at the waters purged we won't refrain nor rescind.
Dew~like spray of briny scent Hold me here on sandy shore,
salty tears were kisses spent making me yours forever more.
sandstone skin touching ocean breezed sighs,
melancholy hues of purple~blue streaming across the painted plume skies,
iridescent creamy streaks melting on a fiery suns impending fall,
waves crashing on the rocky shores sounding thunderous loving calls,
~Crashing waves with moon~glow lending purple hue from stars above cast down their adorn,
and we...our souls have been reformed~
forming; molten, melding swirling,
spinning under moonbeams blue dropped light,
pinknoise fading warm water wading,
as daylight; is birthed from dark blue night,
fiery plummets of dead dying stars in a blue sky panting and ebbing away,
sunshine burning waves noise enduring, crashing together in a grand opus call to the day.
sweet scents swaying warm breath awaken,
another wonder not away to be taken.........
Holding soft embrace in you I find I am complete ,
while the shore~lines drifts slowly off as lapping waters shrink……
Author notes
well this is a piece Laura and I wrote some time ago, been awhile since I posted anything and well I thinks I needed a little arm twisting to get anything outa me so I have to give much of the credit for this work to my Lovely precious Laura, just don't know what I would do without My sweetest Laura around to prod me along my way and help me keep moving forward with dreams in sight, Sorry it took me so long to post this, just couldn't find a picture of my own that I thought complimented it how I wanted so I was forced to find an older picture I had from last year, didn't fit perfect, but I thought it was about as best as I could find in my library LOL, anywhos I hope you all enjoy, and a great big hug to Laura for just being Laura who else can coax poems out of me when I am being so obstinate love ya sweety, and as I already said hope you all enjoy

compliments it beautifully. I'm so glad you got new stuff up again

I could sit here and take every single combination of words that I find to be amazingly descriptive and beautifully combined, but that would take me a very very long time.
This collaboration is the prime example of what I expect to find in the poetry belonging to you and Laura. It's so so so so so so so good. I can't describe how it makes me feel to read your poems...maybe that shall be my next endeavor in my writing life.
But wow, you guys. This hits the spot. Really, you two in collaboration is just a genius idea and much more.
Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you!

sandstone skin touching ocean breezed sighs,
melancholy hues of purple~blue streaming across the painted plume skies,
iridescent creamy streaks melting on a fiery suns impending fall,

Love the powerful feeling this gave to the poem
