Haiku
Pain
Heartbreak
You smile
I am healed
Rock ground to wet sand
Surf smoothed sand covers all things
Ocean's great equal
On a beach of White
I view a sun bloody Red
Till only pitch Black
What moves the Ocean
Is it the moon or the tide
A sylent current
Rolling surf moves me
Waist deep in the lover's grip
Victim of the tide
Restless in the tide
A jellyfish with no real sting
I float gently on
Salt spray beads on face
Primordial man I crawl
From the sea I race
I gaze at the sun
Dipping red beneath the Sea
Last colors have bled
Cross the sea I sail
Ocean waves break into spray
Smell the adventure
Damned
Chocolate fixings
Fudge feverishly piled on
Hell with the diet!
As a Post
Placed a call to brain
Not even a single dial tone
Unlisted number
Captain's Wish
Give me a fine ship
A hearty crew to fill it
A star to sail by
Revved
Pixy sticks sucked down
There's nothing scarier than
Megan on sugar
Driven
Passion drives my soul
Like a shire blessed with it's share
Of screaming rennies
Hitting the gas hard
Spinning my wheels in the dark
Only stopping once
Picked up a lone wolf
A lass of ravenous hungers
Howling into dawn
Goofy grins abound
Soft subtle jabs to the mind
Passion passes near
Horses race across
Open fields with flowing wet manes
Free as the brisk wind
Ever circling
Winding tighter round my soul
Bound in knots undone
Set free by tying
Gathered by parting again
Can it ever be?
Made simple by all
Informed of the best there is
Now passed along here
Tales
The sword and the stone
Drawn forth to prove right of birth
But will you rule wise?
Given past, present
Tomorrow's plight delays now
Right of rule mixed up
Poised on a balance
Ever changing lapses here
Holding many ties
Dark angry clouds form
Storm fronts on the horizon
Force of nature met
Fantasy mixing
Again with the here and now
Filling books with tales
Most thinly veiled
Fleshed out reality told
In a song or verse
Treaty
Savage words tear deep
Words of hatred ferment fast
Can't we just forgive?
Arrgg
Damn crazy pirate
Lost leg to a cannonball
And his rum to crew
Perfect Fit
You can't try on love
Like a suit or a sofa
Non returnable
Passion's dance
Passion makes us fools
So trusting, forgiving like
The loyal puppy
I go back in time
Only to relive passion
That you alone make
You are my sunshine
A gentle ray of yellow
Warming up my heart
My love is a truth
Etched solid in earthen stone
Lasting past my time
You're love eternal
Unspoken emotions held
Tightly in my heart
Notes of excitement
New music made together
Passion plays our tune
Basking in your glow
Lit up like a moonlit night
I am warmed by you
Skin glistens in sweat
Glowing with passionate light
Drops of love potion
Passion give me voice
To tell you of my love true
Even unreturned
You are a treasure
Given your trusting nature
Will you marry me?
Youth
Given we are young
Respect is hardly earned fast
But youth must find out
Banished youth returned
Having reached wisdom fully
Age has it's own path
Never too young We
To know Love's full aching touch
Or too old to care
I'll say it again
Expression, experiences
'cause both speak volumes
Time is being spent
Ending at the very start
Coming full circle
Matinee
Old movies replay
The hero always got girl
And bad guy wore black
Back to Saturday
Cartoons and movie trailers
Serial Stories
Grainy black and white
Scratched master copy endures
Good olde days again
Phantom of Opera
Dark tortured soul driven mad
By life's cold cruel touch
Smoke filled sky behind
A fiery locomotive
Bound for Adventure
Dem Apples
Apple of my eye
Imagination's fruit is
Yet to be sampled
Fruit of Temptation
Plucked in it's most formal shape
Apple of delight
A maiden's full smile
Innocently hands you one
Spice spiked red apple
Peeled grapes held on high
Succulent globes of firm flesh
Touched to precious lips
Dance Set
Bells jangle nearby
Gentle peals of brass ringing
Followed by eyes too
Drawn by exotic
Undulations of belly
Danced and swiveled much
Bright glitter clad curves
Meet in a divine middle
A focal point made
Admirers a far
Travel to be near this dance
A passive entreat
Guided State of grace
Controlled balance of color
Music and fast beat
Drums beat faster still
Swirling tighter to center
Focused inwardly
Like the centered sun
She draws all in her orbit
Dizzying blur still
Leaving forever
An after image of life
Constantly changing
Bina
Feathered hat, knows all
Banana shaken, not stirred
Sabrina Wyrd Rocks!
Haiku to the tenth
Passion follows will
The heart punches no time clock
Life's reward is Love
Love's radiation
Has no half life or limit
No lost energy
Quick passionate peeks
Tender, gentle attempts found
To say I Love You
Listen to the night
Whispers of shadows released
Suggestive secrets
I want to explore
Travel the world at your side
Moved to create Art
If Love is a trap
To be stuck in forever
Gladly am I framed
Gifted woman, She
Talents expressed with passion
Listen, hear her roar!!
She is a vision
Under the cloak of darkness
She's moonlight's shadow
Emerald eyes flash
>From beneath long, dark lashes
Calling me hither
Passion calls my name
The lure is beyond control
Gently I answer
Time's shadow
Pyramid's shadow
Cast in the past, long ago
Remains today, deep
Haiku in F Flat
Fine Fickle Fate's Flame
Flickers Forward Finding Friends
Favorably For
Be Very Quiet
Hunting my love's heart
Gently I tred, notched, ready
Cupid's arrow drawn
Vitamin L
You're my addiction
Fat free, heart healthy, lifetime
Indeed it's all good
Thanks
Destined to be Friends
Timing off for anything more
Accepts gift gladly
SMILE
Nationality?
Irish, Scottish and Ticklish
Join me in laughter!!
Progress
Most sinister words
Said in earnest couched phrases
"we'll always be friends"
My heart would have more
A deep love returned in kind
Timeless and gentle
Have tasted her lips
A potion more rare not found
Intoxicating
Lips given promise
Of Love's time yet to be spent
In close open arms
Coming up for air
Brushing her yellow tresses
Back to see her best
I loose myself there
Just gazing into those eyes
Of my only love
I await her word
Invitation of further
Moments yet to come
Passion yet awaits
Time is our ship of passage
Sailed in the moonlight
Choppy seas scare not
Experienced Love Pirates
Together we sail
I for one am eased
By her bold, gentle spirit
A lifetime's love there
Possessed
She possesses me
Slipping deep into my soul
Never will she go
Harder still I yearn
For her to return this love
That I feel so strong
Not that she cares less
Just I think it frightens her
The strength of my love
But ever I stay
The rock against gentle tide
Safe Harbor for Love
Wyrd Haikus
Peg leg and eye patch
Sets me apart from the norm
Pirate's Life for me
Wyrd cousins set sail
Searching for ports to plunder
'pon the Ship of Wyrd
We wander, plunder
Last of Sparrow's privateers
Ever on the lookout]
Ursula Buggered
Willow and Aelphaba vexed
They Wyrd Sisters three
Formed from fertile mind
Twisted songs to perhaps vex
Cat Pedini Strikes
Parodies abound
With nod to the Al father
Running with scissors
All encouraged to
"take a walk on the Wyrd side"
Every now and then
Know every Wyrd song
Might get stuck on the "checklist"
Sing Wild Mountain Crimes
Longing
Ferocious She Wolf
The Moon is her stalking ground
Hope I'm the Hunted
Dare I tell her true
The depths of my love for her
Really, dare I not?
I must believe that
To risk Love is to find it
For my heart is hers
Truly I fear Death
For that's the only thing that
Could take her from me
With a simple smile
You bewitch my existence
God you're beautiful
Damn, she's distracting
Just by entering the room
She lights up the night
Does she know I Love?
Or perhaps she questions my strength
Samson had much less
Hurt, Pain & Recovery
It hurts to know Love
To see it just out of reach
Daring you to leap
My heart aches for her
She recognizes it not
So I'll show her Love
Errors on my part
Heartbreak teaches most of all
Passion makes perfect

Crashing the computer Thrice
