surrendering to February

i surrender

     to the warmth of your breath

          soothing the nape of my neck

your head resting atop my shoulder

     your soft breast lay on my chest

          and we share our dreams lying next to each other

 the cares of the world lost in our nocturnal nest

     and the music of the moon and stars

         make tender our embrace

as we render our hearts our souls

     into this slumber ridding ourselves of our yesterary

        
          on this memorable last day of February

my heaven is you

 
your fingers long and slender

soft and tender when they touch me
to them i must surrender
and let my heart feel free
…y deje que mi corazon se siente libre

you enter into my life

by walking, standing near me
speaking gentle caring words
where you and i
into each other’s arms doth render
…en los brazos del otro render

whisper in my ear of our yesteryears

how we kissed in the dusk
before our first night together
and we held each other, oh so tight
promising our secret song only to each other
…prometiendo nuestra cancion secreta solo uno al otro

the deep azure in your eyes pierce my soul

your smile envelops me with rapture
and still your gentle touch long and slender
provides me in my waning years
the sustenance of the verve in life,
into my arms, you’ve helped me capture
…en mis brazos me ayudaste a capturar

i awaken in my heart to this in the mornings

wish for this to never end
and when it does which all must do
i shall carry in my soul the love of you and
onto my next sojourn which no matter where,
with you in my heart, will be my heaven
…contigo en mi corazon sera mi cielo

 

Love doesn’t sleep

Love, i wish to breathe you with every breath

to scale life’s fascia with your omnipresence

when i begin to feel the angst and see the

careless and wanton slings of pain and hurt

man thrusts upon each other, do not desert me

grab me, embrace me with your strength

from the beginnings of the day when the sun first

shines light into my eyes until the dusk brings forth

the smiling moon along with its flickering friends

of the night sky and then my eyelids begin to wave hello

to the reveries and dreams of sleep

lay here next to me and hold tight my soul

so when i wake the first mine eyes shall open to

will be the beauty of nature’s hand and the

feeling of your heart
