My Love/Our Love

4 am and I'm hungry
I reach for you softly
Nibbles on your ear
Tongue resting on your neck
Nibbles turn to bites
Fire and passion overflowing
We start in slow motion
Hearts beating in unison
I breathe in YOU
YOU breathe in ME
Slowly reaching the point of ecstasy
You still do it to me and for me
4 pm and my smile is a reminder of what we STILL have
My Love, Our Love Grows deeper each day!

Reflection

She smiles big so no one will see the broken heart she bears

She’s cried so many tears

She’s carried painful memories for years

Dreaming of the day she will finally feel free

Happy just to BE

Stop trying to be good enough

It’s been painful and rough

When the first man you love, makes you feel you’re not good enough

Who else will give a damn

Are you worthy of a good man

When that man finally comes your way

Will you give him the time of day

Or will you make him pay

For the pain of a broken relationship

Protecting yourself from hardship

Or will you give yourself a chance

Are you able to be romanced

Let a man be a man

Let him hold your hand

Wipe away your tears

Comfort you through your fears

Stop pushing him away

He is here to stay

So please don’t make him pay

He’s a blessing in every way

He treats you like a queen

So stop being mean

Or you’ll lose the best thing you’ve ever had

Don’t make him pay for your dad

Back again

The look I missed
I saw today
It came in a quiet subtle way
A cool hush
That made me blush
I feel alive
I've been revived
Because I know
I have the power
To feel like I'm the woman of the hour
The look I missed
I saw today
I'll do my best to make it stay

Make Love to me

Put your hands on me baby
Do what I like
Put your hands on me baby
I'm in the mood for passion tonight
Put your hands on me baby
Start real slow
Kiss me baby
from head to toe
Hold me close
Wanna feel your body next to mine
Taste me baby
I'm sweet as wine
Nibble on my ears
you know what I like
Make love to me baby
I'm in the mood for passion tonight.

I love...

I love our easy conversation

The way we sometimes never speak

I love it when I look at you

The way that our eyes meet

I love it when I hold your hand

And trace every print and line

Those hands are strong and powerful

yet gentle at the same time

I love that it's been nearly 20 years

since the time we would first meet

I love it when I think of you

and my heart still skips a beat

I love the way we've grown together

every pound and gray hair

I love that we have a good home

And I feel safe whenever you're near

I love the life you've made for us

I'm grateful everyday

I love that we have a beautiful child

A blessing in every way

I love you more and more each day

So happy that you're mine

Our love is strong and powerful

It will stand the test of time.

Gratitude

Inspired to write and celebrate

The beauty of 

ART

POETRY

JAZZ

and THEATRE too

Necessities of a fulfilled life

Comforts through pain and strife

I want to paint and celebrate color

Use my talents from God whom I honor

Never leaves me feeling alone

Finding strength and vision to carry on

I want to celebrate positively

ALL the people who have inspired me

Giving thanks for meeting you

I have strength to make it through

Looking at life with brand new eyes

The possibilities are endless and it makes me cry

HAPPY TEARS

I feel so blessed in every way

Counting my blessings everyday

Love

Love
Used to think I had to hear it everyday
Love
Used to think it looked a certain way
Love
There's no more denying
Love 
Can leave you heartbroken and crying
Love
Looks different throughout time
Love
Has you always on my mind
Love
A verb and a noun
Love
Feels so strong when you're around
Love
When two hearts meet as one
Love 
When we don't make a sound
Love
When your hand touches mine
Love 
We've had it all the time
Love
Hearing your heart beat
Love 
Gives me comfort as I sleep
Love 
Warm hugs and sweet kisses
Love
You're the one I've been blessed with
Love
My cup runneth over....
