See




All I can hear is

the beat of your heart.

Enveloped in your arms,

I never want you to let go. 

I want to stay like this

 forever. 

 

The world seems silent,

but it’s sonorous with sensation.

The feel of your warm body pressed against mine

causes my soul to sing.

The feel of your fingers gently exploring my body

shoots shivers up and down my spine.

 

We don’t need eyes to see. 

We see with our fingers,

with our hearts,

with our souls.

When we close our eyes, the world is suddenly clear.

We finally see

love.

In a Cloud


 

Surrounded by soft, shimmering wisps

That glow in the moonlight

And caress your face,

Held aloft in a blanket of velvet,

You gaze up at the multitude of stars above.

 

As you float serenely across the sky,

All you can feel is wonder.

The weight on your heart is finally lifted.

 

Despite the clouds that surround you,

Your mind is completely clear.

You have no fear.

Because like the universe,

You are infinite.

Meeting a Mink


I wrote the following poem after seeing a mink in the wild for the first time.  I was hiking with my dad near the river and spotted the little guy through my binoculars. It was so amazing to see!! Being in nature makes me so happy. :)
 
 
Meeting a Mink
 
Jet black fur, against a backdrop of white

Two contrasting pieces

That somehow fit perfectly into place.

I watch in wonder as your whimsical form prances

Soundlessly across the snow,

Before you disappear,

Hidden down a hole.


Shy nymph of the winter,

Your brief presence has brightened my day.

Begin Again





The pain will never completely disappear,
But I have learned to deal with it and learn from it. 
Life is beautiful. 
I am beautiful. 

My prince is out there, and I won’t stop until I’ve found him.   
Like a phoenix, I rise from the ashes. 
It’s time to live. 
It’s time to begin again.

Magnets


 
 
Where fire and ice collide:

That’s where You’ll find me.

We are so different,

 Polar opposites,

But every day we are becoming

More and more the same.

Our poles aligning,

Two becoming one:

One Will, One Love, One Soul.

 

There’s just something about You…

So beautiful,

 I would do anything

To please You,

To make You smile,

To be Yours.

Poignant Poetry Play

I did some more poetry experimentation.  I found a website that generates poems for you, and I tweaked them a bit to create my own works. Hope you enjoy! :)


Endless Sparkle


Stumble on to Hawaii,
A palace to get drunk on sunny summer,
Where wide waves wash ashore,
And above us
 only sapphire sky.

 



Snow Angel


 
In a meadow of snowy twilight,
I find you.
 
The moonlight sets a spotlight on your face
And a shiver down my spine.
The stars above sparkle in your eyes,
Glowing even brighter than the glistening snow.
 

 
I’ve never seen someone so beautiful
And pure.
You enchant me.
 
I reach out
To touch your delicate hand,
But you disappear with a flutter of wings,
Leaving behind merely an imprint of your form in the snow
And a warmth in my heart.

Snowflakes



Softly floating,

Caressing my face,

Crystals of soft satin

Fall gracefully to the ground.

The world is saturated in silence,

An enchanting, pure silence of magic wonder,

As the snow slowly wraps itself around me.
