The Primal Beat

Restless heart in a lonely quest
Drawing starry lines on palms
Seeking wavelengths and frequencies

Travelogues and random way stations
Flitting thoughts and hopeful eyes
Sensual susurations of breath on neck
Of warm tendrils slithering into the aorta

Triumphant eyes twinkling in the darkness
Undercover reactions to primal instincts
A million years of calculated expertise
Tactics and desires and the lure of the call

Overflow

I think of you...
When dusk spills red
When the birds fly south
When the poinsettia blooms
When the stars streak the sky
When the moon smiles its half smile

I think of you...
When cloud wisps linger away
When wolves howl under dark skies
When black night blankets tired souls
When the creaking land sighs with relief
When the clock strikes the witching hour

I think of you...
In the passage of filled hours
In the gathering heartbeats of day
In the miasma of remembered caresses
In the supposed heat of meeting epidermis

I think of you...
My thoughts overflow
My fingers trail away
My heart accelerates on

Thoughts are all I have for company
Till I hold you within my passion wrap

Have I Told You...

Have I told you
How a lick of snow tastes

Have I told you
About desirable lonesome oceans

Have I told you
About the adrenaline rush of skydiving

Have I told you
About stargazing in the tropics

Have I told you
Of the wonders of a forest inhabited

Have I told you
Of karaoke freedom in a Japanese bar

Have I told you
How freshly brewed wine tastes

Have I told you
Of discovering in deep veined mines

Have I told you
Of the aroma of freshly baked Amish bread

Have I told you
Of giggles that come with rice and chopsticks

Have I told you
Of the gorgeous Belgian bikeways

Or the sheer sensuousness
Of cruising in Kerala backwaters
Of watching a glorious tiger stalk
Of a ride on a majestic elephant
Of powerful sinews in a serene Masai
Of the blue-eyed Muscovite children
Of romantic nights in Parisian byways
Of colourful nostalgic markets in Morocco
Of beautiful women and bronzed men of the Nile
Of awe at Neimeyer's brilliance in Brasilia

Of a world resembling the leaves of a new book
Mysteries to discover; Mazes to decode
New lands to be explored
New people to be befriended

The exoticism of life
And the elixir of joy

Multiplied when absorbed and embraced
In the cocooning warmth of your love

Crack

The infinitesimal
Subtle tint of crossed helix
Slow motion drop of red
Rising nano waves of certitude
Ripples in the proximal
Anti-clockwise beats of heart
Thud-thud of active veins
Single muscle inflates
A half-moon forms on the face

Shimmer

I would walk down
The darkest paths
Lit by dark honey eyes

Your low soft laughs
My northern star

Short bity hair
My only anchor
In tempests wild

Ensorcelled that I am
I will break mores
With satiated smiles

My sinful redemption
In sharp line of lips
Crowning teasing tongue

Hold my hand to cross streets
Kiss me under shadow trees
Bedecked in the light of cars
Breezing past in the twilight

Salvation in nostalgic nuggets

Flames entangled together
Searing souls long in search
With only metaphors for company
Woven on lonely longing nights

Ivy

Fairies in the windflower
Whisper of the primrose
Bloom of first love
Innocent as buttercups

At Hyacinth’s altar
Beloved of Apollo
I gather thyme
And rainbow iris
Heartsease
Crowned with white carnations

I sing of Hera and Eve
And bespell thee
To be the Endymion
To my Selene.

I gift you
My aching heart
Wrapped in red carnations

Praised be the honey suckle
Of your passion clinch
As your violet heart
Weaves iridiscent enchantment
To colour my dreams wild

Then, November shall sing
Of forget-me-nots
And hopeful snowdrops
Joy of the mountains
And dew of the sea

If your heart be not swayed
If the faery spells fail
And mandrake banish my plea

I will send you
The good luck heathers
And slip into breath's mist
To answer Luna's call
Follow the sho yu’s lure
And wander the hidden valley
With the ephemeral lily
Across the span of time

The Call

Of
The
twinkle in your eyes
Your impish chuckle
Your throaty laugh
Your humorous ripostes
Your cheeky wit

The sensuous curl of your lips
The warmth of your clinch
Your dulcet whispers
And incandescent presence

The assurance you engender
The ardor you stimulate
The lofty ambitions you kindle
The earthy passions you rouse

The clichés you ever justify
Leaving me love addled
Buffeted amidst the waves of passion
Thrilling my molten core
Stoking my fiery soul

My lone wolf
Mated with your stallion heart
Runs free and wild
Through the mighty forest
Under the full moon’s grace
To heed the sea’s Joyous call

Love? For Me?

Love
Exotic
Erotic
Soulful
Answering dreams
Living reality
Seeking cosmic answers.
Your hand in mine?
Is for the faint hearted
Who call themselves 'romantics'.
Skating that wave
I ride esctasy, delirium, rapture
What the wordless call 'high'.
No aspirations for the high love
The base is high enough for me.
Sexuality
Sensuality
Answers enough for me
Empowerment
Pleasure
Selfishness
Selflessness
Seeking Joy
For a friendly clasp
For a tender hold
For a rousing kiss
The world does not stop
Time does not empathise
Nothing to lose
Joyful regard to win
No holds barred
No quarter held back
Giving
Receiving
The ageless sky watches
Blessed unions.
