Under your bright sun
21 May 2020
Daffodils
Spilling in the rain
The garden
Now awash
Flowers and fruit all laden
A feast for your eyes
Your features
Bright and definite
Like the love
Infinite
Gushing through the sentences
Composed by the heart
My shadow
Under your bright sun
Towards which
I now run
Happiness is not mere word
Expression unheard
Reading of the poem:
Half the Perfect World – Madeleine Peyroux
Trickle of honey
20 May 2020
Flatter me
With your attention
Raw passion
To ignite
Teeth invitation to bite
Into fleshy sides
Seek and hide
Secrets to confide
I roam free
In your soul
Neither of us to control
Outcomes of the love
Your kisses
Trickle of honey
Embalm me
With sunshine
Your love is the only food
On which I could dine
Reading of the poem:
Norah Jones – Will you still love me tomorrow
Like a faithful friend
19 May 2020
I feel you
In the moon’s wane light
When we rhyme
Together
My soul feels like a feather
In melding with yours
We sway slow
In intimate dance
The halo
Around us
Trails of the shimmering glow
When our bodies touch
I hear you
Your words are like sun
Spread above
In the sky
Your heart meets my every cry
Like a faithful friend
Reading of the poem:
Those sweet words – Norah Jones
Like seal on my lips
18 May 2020
I see you
Emblem of true love
You hover
In the space
Between me and hidden face
Redesigning worlds
The truth hurled
From voices of birds
Song from dark
Nightingales
They join the merry lark
In fusion of genre
Sit with me
I am now breathless
From your love
High above
A kiss so delightful slips
Like seal on my lips
Reading of the poem:
Norah Jones – I´ve Got to See You Again
Deep within my heart
17 May 2020
Dance with me
In moves sensual
To the beat
In our feet
Rhythm of the waves chanting
The soul enchanting
Heart singing
The melodies slow
High and low
Move bodies
The backdrop a scenery
Of spring’s greenery
Take my hand
To fairy tale land
We move fast
Soul steadfast
The music flowing in art
Deep within my heart

Sierra Maestra – El Son Hay Que Llevarlo En El Corazon

Of Love’s wilderness
16 May 2020
Green foliage
Covering the ground
Seeking eye
Now spellbound
I breathe in the summer’s dew
Seasons brought anew
Clouds gather
High above in skies
They rumble
With the seed
Of water mingling with salt
Life breeds a new creed
Falling rain
Shimmering raindrops
On my head
They sparkle
They point to a new cycle
Of Love’s wilderness
Reading of the poem:
Sam Smith – Fire on Fire
Rumbling in my heart
15 May 2020
Music set
Melodies thriving
In my blood
As they flood
The synapses of my brain
Through journey in ear
Parting point
Rhythm now disjoint
Like my knees
As they ease
Into postures of dances
Of my wild prances
Summer slow
Eases into spring
Daffodils
On the hills
Where I hear your echo ring
Rumbling in my heart
