40,000 ft.


From way up here there’s nothing to see
But puffy white clouds and a deep blue sea
The sun gives its light and all is bright
And only time that passes by
And nothing else.
I close my eyes with peace and ease
And wander off unto a dream,
Of puffy white clouds and a deep blue sea.

Honeymoon




Two hearts on a string
side by side, beating
longing, wanting
desire of my flesh
heed my need
let our lips grow numb
with pleasure seething,
lay next to me bare,
let me stare into your eyes,
speak of things sublime,
let me dare to make you mine,
seal now, our spoken bows,
though it be our first night,
let us loose ourselves in love
and in the morning light
with a gentle kiss awake
to a merry heart
knowing evermore
you will be my lover.

Fairytale


Written for Jonathan and Madeline
on their wedding day
September 12,2009.
May God reachly bless this union.

A story old as time itself,
over and over it's been told
and so today it’s common knowledge
everyone is sure to know,
to wake a princess from her slumber
a kiss of love is all you need.
Then let me place my lips to yours
and we will ne'er sleep ever more,
let our hearts to love be liened,
I your king and you my queen,
we will write a storybook
with love to fill the pages
a fairytale for the ages.
And generations yet to come,
filled with jealous admiration,
will mimic closely our example;
A kiss of love is all we need.

Homeless



She’s sitting on box,
formerly a crate,
a cradle for gallons of milk,
a tool for the milkman
and now she’s sitting on it.

Did she once own an easy chair?

She’s sitting on box
in her living room,
in her dinning room,
in her bed room
under the stars,
waiting for someone to visit,

but no one stops
they just walk by,
no one sees her
sitting on a box
on the corner of seventh and main.
