through time immortal

loving partners exist

entwined together

as passionately they kissed

This Dying rose

Purple velvety petals
laid on the ground
fallen from the rose
tossed down without a sound

for once there was beauty
shining from this flower
but as time`s gone by
this rose has lost its power

a distant waft of scent
drifts across this place
where once we saw beauty
oh, so full of grace

so sad, this dying rose 
as the petals fall away
scattered across the floor
not to see another day

inspired by a photo of a purple rose laying on the surface..dying.!

Dance with our memories

I have my memories to cling on to

so with pen in my hand, I write

letting the ink dance like we did when younger

creating pictures as our feet tap to the music of life

never let these images die away

hold on to them for eternity and we`ll stay alive..!

May your life be filled with

mornings of happiness and light

and sweet dreams throughout the night

I was inspired by a photo of two smoking candles, within the smoke of each candle two faces were seen kissing. I`m not sure where this image is from but I certain found it inspirational.

Lovers Candles

In the center of this wooden floor

two tall white candles are found

standing in their shallow saucers

silently waiting, not making a sound

these candles belonged to some lovers

who have been sadly separated

for what should have been happy times

were now mournful scenes that are hated

with these candles lit, small flames seen

in this bare room, that shone bright

when suddenly the lovers were split

these special candles lost their light.

the room had been filled with loud shouts

and a struggle that didn`t succeed

then silence fell upon this bare place

after such a sad and awful deed

extinguishing those lonely candles

was astonishing to watch the smoke

forming the two lovers faces kissing

a lasting image on this floor of oak

Valentine Memories

To feel you in my heart

and see your loving smile

walk hand in hand together

even for a little while

tender kisses upon your cheek

a touch that will slowly fade

leaving my heart all a flutter

that`s how memories are made

soft perfume of sweet roses lingers

a fallen petal on the ground

can`t forget the feel of silk skin

or lilting voice, a gentle sound

these valentine memories

that hold us both together

locked away deep in my heart

moments in time to treasure

Eternal Secrets

Sat on this wooden floor

cold and empty here

a single candle gives light

in this a place of fear

ragged cloth draped over me

the only warmth I feel

huddled close to the flame

a scene that`s so surreal

there`s darkness through the window

a blood moon shines bright

screech of an owl is heard

as I sit here through the night

sat in this empty space
as I await my demise
unsure what will occur,
but with me the secret dies..!


Heroism and true values.......!
