Alone, Under a Willow Tree

Sitting deep within myself,

Lamenting Lovers Lost.

 

An Arm across my shoulder...

My gaze moves upward along satin smooth legs,

Past bare, half-cocked, hips.

 

I slowly allow my gaze past her

long, slender, stomach.

 

Raven hair cascades over bare shoulders,

Stopping inches above exposed breasts.

 

"Have me?"

 

Silent screams

&

Hardened Bodies

 

Explode among the willow

 

Eyes locked

The world is exchanged between their gaze

 

Both have risen...

If I have it all figured out, then all I have left to do is help others reach enlightenment!

We poets have an 'audience' they don't always leave a comment or vote the poem up but they do peruse them on occasion. And then we have the 'dedicated' readers too. :)

To be perfectly honest, growing up, I was never a fan of poetry -- possibly because I have absolutely no poetic abilities, but I find in my old age, that I do enjoy reading poetry now. The Vine reintroduced me to the genre, and I'm very glad for it.

I am a pretty big believer in many things metaphysical. I came out of the womb talking, and almost as soon I was writing and rhyming. I was that kid who looked forward to the poetry portion of English. lol I really love that my poems illicit the kind of response you guys have. Talking about the universe, and life past, and future. It's really cool. Thanks again

I am transposing some old Notebooks to digital format, and using Newsvine as a place to put them online once they are. I really appreciate your votes, you guys!
