spring
saudade
if only
you could see
what I see in you
hear what
I cannot say
you are
what no words
can contain
like all that is sacred
treasured, in my heart
you remain
you are..
you are to me
more than a story
more than a memory
🌸
petal unto petal
my spirit flowers
and heavens turn
as your love descends
upon my heart
….
music by Marc Antoine
🍂
we all die
many times, in myriad ways
before the physical death
in the dissolution of a dream
in the passing of a loved one
at the hands of a lover
yet with each spring
life is renewed
in the same place
it collapsed
from the source
that is Eternal
I hear
the leaves dance
in the autumn wind
falling
weightlessly
as if
in a trance
gently reminding me
it is not death
that I should fear
but celebrate spring
that never fails
to keep its promise
l.
Haunted
by the memories
of an ancient love
I look for you
hidden
from everyone
with me, in my heart
I carry you.
freedom
we chase
in holy mischief
butterflies
on a gentle breeze
giggles and laughter
amid songs of bees
like children
lost in time
spring arrives
dewy flowers blossom
gently nudged
by careless breeze
bursting joy
they seize moments
under the sun
and flutter
in the amorous play
of eternal fate
delighting
in a playful
possibility
∸
nights
fermented in tears
slowly made my soul fertile
now I run wild
through blossoming fields
alive in eternal spring
•◦•
I am not sure
what I love
more –
you
or the fact
that maybe
that maybe one day
when the stars align
when the angels plead
you will come
and sit beside me
you’ll sit
till words cease to flutter
from our lips
till the silence
quietly slides
nudging you gently
to lie next to me
and we’ll watch
the clouds float by
hear the leaves gently rustle
to the songs of existence
in the warm summer sky
you’ll lie down
and you’ll teach me
what love is
all over again
till the stars fade
and the sun rises
with every sunset
every glowing sunrise
you’ll show me
the divinity
in your embrace
the devouring memory
in your touch
reminding me of home
just like you did
just like you did
as the summer flowers
spring blossoms
and autumn rains
we’ll seize moments
to gaze into the Eternal
to our heart’s content
slip into our space
tending to ineffable treasures
that lie hidden
underneath
there we will lie
for timeless decades to come
feeding our souls
confounded by love
comforting our hearts
trembling with delight

Beloved
let me stay with you
for a little longer
the veil has uplifted
and the mist has dissolved
it is in you
I wish to be lost
nurtured by sacred tears
the stillness within me
blooms
a silent collapse
from skin to soul
a quiet dip
in the ocean
of gratitude
I no longer remain me
when I am with you
stripped from time
in the place I belong
Beloved, there is no better taste
for which I have longed
my wings bud in ecstasy
and spirit surges
as every step I take
towards you
dissolves in your fragrance
and merges
let me run wild
through illumined fields
of eternal spring
and pure delight
consume me
make me whole
in this holy flight
of the soul
even after hours
of being one with the wind
you see, I lie only exalted
bathed in your Light
Beloved
let me stay content
for a little while
