  • Fleeting Moments

    Merry Christmas everyone! I hope
    the New Year is full of wonderful
    adventures, health and happiness.

    Your Spirit engorges me
    until there is nothing but

    You

    Only…
    the sense of the
    Divine

    All earthly things fade
    away

    Your light almost
    blinding

    Painful to look upon

    The fine line I walk
    between sinner and
    saint obscured

    Heavenly awareness
    pervading my
    soul.

    ~

    Love,


  • Night Games

    It was suggested recently, on another web site, that my poetry is a little too romantic for some…I’m OK with that! I’m a romantic, optimistic kind o’ gal. But this comment did have me wondering what would be suitably unromantic and I like to rise to the challenge, if a challenge was meant. This is my version of non-romantic poetry. 🙂

    CAUTION: ADULT CONTENT!

    Savage thoughts prowling
    calculating eyes watching
    stalking her every move
    Intent clear–
    he the thorn, she the rose
    want edging him closer
    sharp pictures in his head
    her, him, flesh on flesh
    dirty words playing over
    her legs clinging to his hips
    bricks scraping her back
    growls punctuating the air
    the thorn pricking the rose

    Love,

  • No procrastination here!

    Gwen, your blog on procrastination inspired me and shook me out of the doldrums. Sometimes a little kick in the right spot works wonders. Good stuff!

    soft lips caressing

    seducing with sweet whispers

    unfair advantage

    whispering voices

    rustling sheets, perfect movements

    life’s imperfect dance

    restless images

    fleeting impressions taunting

    kaleidoscope view

    random memories

    reminiscing past actions

    titillating ghosts

    Capricious musings

    playing mischievously

    whimsical notions

    I love playing with words Haiku style, one thought leads to another, then another and voila!

    Love

  • Haiku

    I’ve tried my hand at some Haiku. It’s here for your enjoyment.

    Love ~ Eaton.

    engulfing sadness

    unshed tears burning like fire

    punishment complete

    secret obsession

    stars unfolding mysteries

    Illumination

    clouds, swirling turmoil

    dangerously raging storm

    seeking sweet solace

  • Dark side of Intimacy

    Over the last couple of months I have been exploring Friendship, Intimacy and of course love. Poems on Friendship, Intimacy and Lust have demanded that I write them and today’s poem has been insistent to be written too. Thinking about emotions and feelings has led me to realize that not all relationships are healthy! So, I have written a poem I believe expresses in part, the dark side of relationship…

    Temptation

    Temptation whispering
    Clouding the mind
    Crawling inside her

    Desperate need
    Craving release
    Exacting its price

    Sleepless night
    Thoughts won’t cease
    “Give in”, they whisper

    Early morning light
    Illuminating
    Untamed yearnings

    Selfish desire
    Calling his name
    Branding anxious flesh

    Heart of stone
    Conscience bleeding
    Dead to truth

    Impossible to deny
    Giving into temptation
    Lost in betrayal!

  • Not Alone

    My new found delight in poetry is proving that subject matter is limitless, with new ideas constantly eager to be written. Friendship was the inspiration for this poem. At first I thought it would be light and airy, but it morphed into something deeper and took me by surprise, yet again.

    Memories bite and sting
    Resurrected fears
    Crowd my mind

    Thoughts of you
    Stir wondrously
    Suggesting hope is alive

    From that land so distant
    I dreamily imagine
    Shining eyes on me

    Gentle in their focus
    Generous eyes, your eyes
    Dispelling my dark fears
