I saw you on the street In passing, We embraced "Hi Sweetheart"... You introduced me to your "friend" Beautiful like a tiny painting With a limp dishrag handshake.

Where Two Rivers Meet the Sea
Tropical flowers are red, The sky is blue, The sun is hot, And so are you. Water taxis are white, Yachts are rare, The water is shiny And so is your hair. Roosters crow, Chickens lay eggs, Force is strong, And so are your legs. Mountains reach, Up to the skies, The sand is sparkly, … Continue reading Where Two Rivers Meet the Sea
What is it about me?
And she replied, I can, and have. I am at a very free stage in my life. I have been deeply in love and I have had my heart broken.

Let me compare you to a flaccid member? You are more cruel, entitled and unsatisfactory. Bold winds shake the leafage of … Continue reading A Sonnet of Hate and Love – 1
Inspiring Art
She appeared in the doorway as if the wind had blown her onto my blank canvas all at once in full color. Soaked from rain's song. Shaking her head and laughing wildly. She was unaware of her crackling impact on the still inside air. Surprisingly refreshing like a summer storm. Embracing Nature. Inspiring art. ~Just … Continue reading Inspiring Art
