Monday in Paris #4

“I see dreams ~ ready to conquer…”
*This photo was taken from the Musee d’Orsay. On the left of the photo (behind the Hausmannian Buildings which run along the length of the photograph) is the Palais Garnier – Opera Nationale de Paris. On the right is Montmartre – home of Sacre-Coeur.*
we ~ ~ ~
we tiptoe around one another’s thoughts
and
play in one another’s dreams.
we swim in one another’s veins
and
tug on one another’s heart strings.
we
are
writers,
readers,
lovers,
friends
~ transforming ~
the essence of who we are
into
words with wings ~ setting them free
to soar
upon the world.
saturday stare #8

“Nothing better than tumtum while couching with my brothers.”
“It’s like the bestestestest ever!!!!”
dynamics
I cross T’s, I dot i’s.
I string words into lines ~ ~ ~ of verse,
I create a vessel in which to sail
upon
an ever-changing sea
~ yet ~
it
is
deep
within
the static pools of silence…
where
I
dive
beneath each
sigh ~
a n d
generate a current
of
thoughts
and
feelings.
let us ponder for a while…
it seems that awhile
is just that ~ ~ ~ awhile.
never anything more,
never anything less
which
makes me wonder ~ ~ ~
awhile can never be forever,
but
awhile is better….than never.
right?
inner space

my words stand on the inside
looking ~ and ~ wanting
to be embraced
by
understanding
and
by eyes ~ that listen…
Monday in Paris #3

the lights of Paris have embraced my mind
and
inspired my thoughts ~
reigniting dreams
from
a childhood…… long passed……
