When the dust settles
Heroes are celebrated
Though nobody has won
Losses abound
In power, in borders
And in heart
What they have gained
Are hard-learned lessons
And battle scars

Casualties Of War
Champion of the Moon
Scarlet cloak matching the sky
He marched with blade in hand
Joining ranks among the stars
To conquer the realm of night
Rain Forest
Would the jungle know her name
Were it not for her curving rivers
The swollen fruit of her trees
Shadows overflowing with life
And her damp, dark earth
With its blanket of steam
Rising to meet the sun
Freedom Song
Nightingale raised from birth
Released from its cage
Set free to spread its wings
Singing its song of freedom
To the world
Aromatherapy
The heat and aroma of the bath
Transports him
Back to a time when
The body he stroked was not his own
And the moans were breathed
Into his ear
Keep You Warm
Fire, fire burning bright
Will keep you warm
Throughout the night
And when the pale moon has set
New wood the red hot embers get
Spice Trade
A ship in the night
Carrying cases of spice
Came into port
When fair winds blew
Filling its white sails
South Seas
Set a course for the South Seas
The stars in her eyes to guide the way
A balmy paradise to call home
ABC – What I’m good at
Yet another piece from my profile. I was trying to be cute and funny, but I don’t really know if it was appreciated. I’m getting the feeling that people don’t want to read poetry when they are looking at profiles. Oh well!
Apple eating
Butt oogling
Crepe making
And drawing too
Eagle watching
Food eating
Gift giving
Also hugging you
Ink smudging
Joke telling
Kite flying
Lip-locking, ooh
Movie watching
Netflixing
Orange peeling
Putting on a shoe
Quilt folding
Rug burning
Soup sipping
Toe tapping tunes
Upside downing
Vulva drowning
Wishful thinking
X-ray posing nude
Yes or no-ing
Zipper zipping
Now I’m out of letters
I finished this too soon
