Beyond the Light Horizon
Touch us with your cosmic fingers
From a place beyond the known universe
Long before the Thinite kings
A strong creative flow
Energy in thought dwells in this land
Pure elevation and knowledge
Seen to mortals as a brilliant sunset
As we stand at the precipice
Will we crystallize
Kiss us with your all encompassed wisdom
So many souls dwell in common union
Mark the trail, with breadcrumbs of starlight
Thoughts from a trillion minds play there
The Bard et al. are known, so many are not
Sweet energy enough to power infinite suns
Far from the outer galactic reaches
Distilled into a single atom, in the light
Of a small childs eyes

Lovers
Dawn of time, as shores of sand,
We live this life as woman and man,
Through eternity, we explore the sky,
Together, shared souls, past heaven we fly
Our life in the forest was alive and fine,
Your rough textured trunk, next to mine,
I caressed you with my branches, shared leaves,
Brilliant our foliage, we were, beautiful trees,
We sped through our lives, from seedlings to lumber,
Then started all over, you the clouds, me the thunder,
For eons, weve moved in tandem, so bright,
Galaxies awaiting our trips through the night,
As a planet, your beauty was breathtakingly real,
Me a moon, constantly awed, by your sensual appeal,
This story of ours transcends space and time,
Twin souls, linked together, alive and sublime

River of Time
Floating along on a river of time
A riverboat gambler on a boat named Sublime
You dance in the red cabaret of my heart
Together through the universe weve paddle wheeled from the start
Waving from the deck rail of eternity to Huck and Jim
Their raft lazily floating as the sunset of forever grows dim
Then into the crimson gambling hall off we stroll
The cards are dealt and the dice start to roll
So sensual in your black fishnet hose
Black garter belt with a small pink woven rose
My top hat cocked back with assurance and flair
Dealing the cards drawing the inside straight to the pair
Chips chatter and dance on a green felt stage
The piano roll blues fill the air through the haze
Youre dancing alluring, sensuality in flight
Music enticing fills the air through the night
Each season twin lovers on the river of time
Forever soul mates on a boat named Sublime

The Garden
Looking through clear panes of glass to the outside
I watch you working in the garden
Undisturbed, in harmony with nature
The rich soil being massaged with your loving hands
Symbiotic, a dance more than ancient
Quiet peaceful and reassured of fresh new life
The silence of early morning allows for ears to hear
The gentle song of birds, the smell of coffee
Enraptured by my vision, at once both touched and overwhelmed
I want to turn, but alas, I cant
So joyful is the peace, so relaxing is her soul
My vision dances before me, slowly a smile forms
Serenity a quiet kiss, these are moments treasured in my heart
Peace comforts like a blanket,
I am rich beyond all imagination
Fulfilled beyond belief
