What You Will FInd Here ...

Join me in my celebration of life and language through poetry. You will find no hint of literary snobbery here. Much like our beloved English ... THIS poet is very much alive, fun-loving, growing and changing!

Honeymoon Hiatus



Have you been
wondering
about my
lingerning
silence?

It's been
so long,
she's not
written a word
since ... ?

I've gotten
married
hitched
unified
wed

My man now sleeps here
each night in my bed

Bonded
banded
tagged,
yes,
claimed

This newlywed blessed-bliss
has trumped everything

Though, I do adore
my
crazily cadenced
odes - those
words
with their
sing-song
rhymes

I've been
revelling
in this wife-life
where just breathing
satiates
this woman's
affection starved soul

Love astir
an
animated
being ...
whose
intensity is
maddening
does
dwell here

Love
so undeniably,
reliably
sublime
