I see the vision framed in a rainbow of happiness aglow
I feel the nature of the beast regale, ebb to flow
I know that jealousy leaves a void and that love suffers above
All Others
I know that lust is for teens who are growing with their flavors budding
I sense that man lingers far too long among the fruit of loving
The passions that come alive and are richer for it's deeper meat
Spins a vortex of dreams that make us complete
I know that to love is emotional fruit to bestow
That for two to find the seed, can make it grow
That these are gifted ones above the other's for the push and thought
Becomes a treasure often taught to those who love ONCE forgot
I realize the heart is a powerful muscle and that it's versatility is mystery
I know that to love is a part of mortal history
The dejavous of passion spends itself upon a Friday afternoon
Comes and goes, if you want, but is best festooned
Upon the bed of treasures some lust for and forget
For to love is a heart's treasure, I must admit.
Lust for love is a commendable trait, as is the more famous lust for life. Without lust, there could never be love, so the two, lust/love, are the best two four letter words around . . .
A further collection of poems, many from years in the Middle East, but also the California San Francisco and Central Coast areas (Santa Cruz, Carmel, Big Sur, Berkeley, etc.).
If you tend to believe romantic, passionate, masculine poetry is a thing of past eras, read "She Intrigues Me," and be swept away in the beautiful craft of a contemporary poet of love.
