The wind blows,
As I hear Dylan and my times are changing,
And keep me tangled up in blue,
Though the sunshine breaks the monotonous despair,
Allows my dream,
Floating free,
finding the strength,
To finally allow myself,
What for so long was true,
But avoided,
As the knocks on the door of my own sanity echoed,
I had no choice,
But to submit,
Give myself the generous permission to visit darkness,
Visions,
As Dylan says creeping,
As I gasp for air,
And acknowledge I must take it,
One day at a time.

The Moment I Saw Her
The moment I saw her,
My life changed,
As I recognized,
Irrationally,
That without even knowing her name,
I had seen my wife.
In that realization,
I approached the bar,
Asked three questions,
And the rest is,
As the say,
History.
Our love found,
In a darkened room in Toronto,
Though our souls had always known,
Each other,
Transcending the physical universe,
Entering the spiritual divine.
My passion unyielding,
Evermore,
Knowing that Sender loves Charmaine,
And vice versa,
Requited,
For the first time in my life.

For KF - With Many Thanks
In the restless solitude of this languid soul,
I scream out,
Violently to the stars,
Hear me damn you,
Hear me,
And then in a moment of infinite delight,
It screams back at me,
You fool,
The question needed asking,
The begging needed to be pure,
Before you surrendered and allowed the veracity of your gift,
To manifest,
You fool,
As you endure,
I will unleash in kind,
A force in you,
That even you did not know was there,
You fool,
I will give to you all you’ve asked and more,
Now that you have given away,
All there is to give.
The universe then beckons like a mother a child,
Placing the stars around me,
Alignments unclear at first,
Until when fully enveloped,
I forgive myself trespasses,
And sweetly the scent of hope,
As pure as untouched snow,
Or that faint odour of your first loves hair,
Allows joy to crawl from the deepest pit of I and I,
If only for a moment,
You fool,
Let go,
Why are you hanging on to that, which tortures you?
Whispers soft and sublime still singing,
As the peculiar oddities of the brightest invention,
Fall before my eyes,
As I shudder to think,
All I had do was let go,
Of what was never I to begin with.
And then,
With the veracity of the question realized,
The universe claims I,
As its latest prince,
Worthy of the gift of life,
And more importantly,
A love requited,
Bequeathed unequivocally and without condition,
As I now realize,
That in order to shine,
In order to become one,
All the stars align,
As sirens sing a song,
That long I have sought,
But was not yet privileged to hear,
Until I gave in,
In a moment of dire need,
Surrender,
And the stars rejoice,
As the ancients reveal their wisdom,
With sage like fortitude,
And now,
I too will whisper,
In many thanks,
For love.

Another Feast
A feast,
A three-hour tour,
Gastro intestinal treat,
Engaging all our senses,
As the lights dimmed,
And the music played,
Drowned out,
Only by the laughter,
Of our ecstatic joy,
Bring on the salad,
Spinach and shallots,
Red onion and bacon,
Mushroom and goat cheese,
Lets not forget the shrimp,
Port soaked crustinis,
Tossed in a mango orange goat cheese vinaigrette,
Whipped,
Are your taste buds alive yet?
With a sip of meaty chardonnay,
It was time,
Feeling fine,
I filled the pot,
2 lemons,
2 bay leaves,
salt and pepper to taste,
now boil and wait,
with another fine sip,
in about ten minutes,
the lobster did dip,
prior to their soothing Jacuzzi,
the larger female was a little woozy,
grabbing her by the tail,
in a last ditch effort she did flail,
it caught me off guard,
the feeling that she knew her demise,
I could see it in her eyes,
Lifting the lid,
What a rush of steam,
So much so,
We couldn’t hear them scream,
3 and a half pounds,
initially brown then red,
in about twelve minutes our mouths would be fed,
now onto the sauce,
such sweet decadence,
butter and garlic,
and some green onions,
bring to a boil,
now nothing to do,
so open the champagne,
this dinner,
for you.

Poet Warrior
My spirit soars,
As the love you send my way,
Is unlike any I’ve ever known,
With every breath you take,
I become stronger,
Lovers’ poet warrior,
Battling minds with words,
That you inspire,
Your soul, like your beauty shines,
Reflected not just in these words I write,
But also in the way I chose to live my life,
My actions,
A reflection sincere,
Of the love you brought to my table,
Which I am fortunate to feast upon with you,
My love,
The queen of my soul,
The princess of my heart and mind,
X did not mark the spot,
But blessings made sure I’d find,
You,
And my spirit soars.

One Look
With one look of your eyes,
One peering glance,
You break through the chain male armor,
Of a soul that longed for you,
Prayed for you,
Dreamed of you,
With every adult fiber of my being,
Considering virtue,
Fostered by an unshakable faith,
An unprecedented belief,
In the power which understood,
Acknowledged and revealed,
The infinite wisdom,
Of love requited unconditional,
On a foundation,
Of daily discovery and affirmation,
Love,
Angelic grace,
Through virtue understated,
By you,
In the revealing reflections,
Of your eyes,
The universe unfolding,
One atom at a time,
Accelerated,
By promise,
And the realization of potential,
On wings only visible,
By those that truly see,
Through something even they cant explain,
You have come,
And with the grace of the tooth fairy,
My pillow,
Every morning,
Has born the just reward,
For the daring,
The curious,
The scared,
Who can believe,
In the sacred power,
Of a divine trust,
Love,
Wisdom in the revelation of this song,
That glorious song,
All lovers hear,
At the smack of the soul,
Manifested by the lips,
Thank you sage,
Best friend, confidant and every day more,
For unleashing,
Virtues eternal curiosity,
Contemplated,
Love.

My Angel
I want you to know,
Just how incredible you are,
How in just the blink of an eye,
You revealed a world bright,
And understanding of the night,
With patience and grace,
Seeing beyond my face,
Value,
Virtue,
And in deed vice,

Beauty, truth and light,
You’ve helped reveal my path,
Helped me see right,
Your love unconditional,
A spirit so soothing,
These words represent,
My absolute swooning,
I loved you when,
My eyes first glanced,
This woman who,
So greatly enchants,
You are an angel,
A guardian and more,

From God's Lips
To know your love is to know the fluttering of God’s heart.
As your soul reaches out to mine God’s fingerprint is firmly marked on mine.
Each touch of your soft hand on mine is a blessing from heaven which sets me searching for the wings I KNOW you must have.
The halo, though invisible over your crown, I firmly believe is there.
Each kiss sends my soul to heaven while our lips intertwine
in a dance which sets the universe ablaze.
When we make love,
I can hear the joyous sprits of all those lovers who paved the way for our divine union; Destiny for years sought the perfect moment for our introduction
and upon finding it rejoiced as now our soul like tractor beams drew us closer.
To know your love is to be acquainted with God’s purpose and design for my life
as you draw out and set aside the darkness and pave the way for the light.
Inspiring, by your very existence and powerful presence in my life
a transformation resultant in the countless volumes written on life,
love and the state of human affairs.
To God’s delight you shelter me, give me safe harbour to express all that it means to be me. You accept, more readily than even I,
the many faults that I have determined in your loving ways
to see me become the man I never dreamed I could be.
Yet, slowly, as your love massages my very human faults, I am becoming that man.
Your love, by God’s design sets me free to roam the depths of my soul
that had long gone uncharted.
The love we share is the lighthouse in the storm guiding me to port.
The love we share, growing by the second reveals all that once was hidden.
I am forever indebted to you for the muse that you are.
More than these words could ever show.
In every way you have shown me life, fully,
letting my spirit soar, basking in the glory of your love.

Captivated
Captivated,
By the way your eyes grab me,
With the ferocity of an angry mother with a naughty child,
Yet the tenderness of a surgeon during open heart surgery,
Together we walk hand in hand,
Into tomorrow’s tomorrow,
Knowing that our love is so real,
Entranced by the way you touch me,
Touching my soul,
Enlightening me,
With words of support, comfort and love,
Beguiled in a moment,
Caught in the warm afternoon sun,
My skin dancing with delight,
As the sun goes down,
And the moon appears,
A smile comes upon our faces,
One from ear to ear,
To know you,
Is to know all I can be,
To be with you,
Is to capture all that I am,
To hold you,
Is to hold God’s love,
Pure!

Good luck in New York Charmaine! I will miss you but I am so proud of you! Kick ass, take names and enjoy Stella and the City!

Angelic Whispers
My mind bounces between the hard and gritty impending darkness of war
and the always on fire passionate light of love that is you;
my special treat of everyday, the desire of my life realized,
the perfect joy that only you could bring –
Yet, still torn between these opposites am I –
Drawn to the mortal conflict of inferior minds,
ready to give in to the somehow easy to choose munitions of war machines delivered by the very real human commands –
as if destiny knocked on the door and said;
The grim reaper of this generation has whispered in my intelligent ear –
War is upon us –
I wonder about what they are thinking,
I wonder about what they know that I don’t
and in the case of both what I know that they don’t.
My ear hears different whispers,
I hear the voices of a million angels raised in brilliant unison –
Love, Love, L – O – V – E;
In your voice, with your words, I come to ease as I know that no matter the outside pressures this love is here to stay; Forever!
So please,
whisper,
speak,
scream or shout
take me away,
as you always do from the ominous storm clouds
threatening more damage than all the storms in Tornado Alley –
The shine of your genuine soul relieves my own and in your brilliance,
all you need do,
grasp my hand and understand God’s plan and a kiss upon my cheek;
I’m so grateful for you in this moment,
all that have passed and all that are to come,
My rock; my confidant, so strong, my best friend who listens and my lover who loves – Thank you for this life we share,
filled with light.

The Chorus of Angels
To hear your voice is to hear the gates of heaven open and be greeted by an angelic choir – trumpets flailing and strings in full pluck,
all this with a simple declaration from your sweet lips,
pursed ever so delicately as if to invite the kiss,
chic, of our two souls,
engaged in the dance inspired by God’s advance into our lives –
Omnipresent –
Bound by faith,
an abiding belief in what’s more;
All these thoughts from one straightforward yet grand word from your sweet mouth,
no matter what it is, as passion like a lighthouse leading us to port,
directs our lives to the service of passion divine.
To hear your voice,
I know fully, the meaning of life,
love,
goodwill towards all,
caring,
lofty pursuits of something more –
Our love!

Love's Lessons
Many years from today, with perhaps a son, a daughter, or several of both,
I’ll look back at these words hoping.
Hoping that your future is bright, filled with the same promise that mine is.
With your mother, Charmaine, by my side, we’ll explore what it was like for us growing up.
I must also apologize, for I destroyed much of what I wrote between 13 and 20.
I’m sorry, it was rash and foolish decision which I will not repeat.
On this page, I do want you to know –
You can be ANYTHING you want to be.
Embrace the fire inside of you.
Understand your passions and use them as fuel to guide and direct you on your path.
Call us ANYTIME,
wake us up in the middle of the night,
we will ALWAYS be here for you.
Sometimes you’ll resent us for it,
sometimes you may even think you hate us –
Believe me, you don’t!
Our love for you is forged in the love that we share which is absolutely special.
Go to SCHOOL –
make MISTAKES –
Later, you’ll call them EXPERIENCE.
Know this;
The future is YOURS
and we wish you all the joy, happiness and success you so richly deserve.
I love you
I love Char (Mom)
We love you so much,
Always.

Celebrate Love... Today
Today I celebrate love,
which means I celebrate you,
from the tips of your sun kissed multi shaded hair
to the chill curled toes at the end of those long and inviting legs of yours.
Today, I rejoice in the grandeur that is this love,
revealed to me in silent volumes each day on this path that we have chosen.
Today, I stand witness to the incredible power that love has to improve the human condition, to touch the deepest regions of the human spirit,

from the tips of your sun kissed multi shaded hair
to the chill curled toes at the end of those long and inviting legs of yours.

Do I Love you...
Do I love you –
Oh yes and how –
Brought to you as led by my North Star –
The Lord above so ask not do I love you but instead how much
and for you my shinning star I convey this emotion through a touch of devotion
designed to instill joy,
happiness and love as guided by concentrated light.
No need to refuse or shy away for you will be lifted up today as right you should,
the colours of the rainbow found beaming in the smile of a princess
who for so long I’d been dreaming –
Then to realize my every day – I
n your arms, where there is no harm in trying, as so often you have shown me.
While with the force of your will you have blown me, to the ends of the earth and back again – But unlike Columbus you trained this heathen savage to respond to love not hate as these words demonstrate…
Do I love you –
And how,
as a Leprechaun the rainbow,
who needs Gold when I have the real value of your smile,
a hundred times the value of all Fort Knox,
nurturing more life than all the Nile,
for you so clearly are the cradle of my civilization,
the Tigris to my Euphrates,
from you flows all knowledge and understanding –
For you are woman and I hear you roar –
feeling quite distinctly your thoughts, seeing them as clearly as the sun –
Do I love you?
Did Billie sing the blues?
Did Ella skat?
Was Gillespie Dizzy as Parker was a Byrd?
Did Picasso paint? Einstein ride imaginary stars? Are there four queens in a standard deck of cards?
Do I love you?
Is the sky blue?
Are we getting older?
Isn’t it a fact in winter its colder?
Does the dun shine and the moon glow?
Are there things in this world we’ll never know?
Did Descartes think, did Ali fight, did the Grinch steal Christmas, did Ali Babba have 40 nights? Are there Kings and Queens and President and Prime Ministers,
Then as you come out from this audition, I guess you have your answer…
Yes,
I love YOU!

31
Who are you,
And where did you come from,
Never mind,
I’m grateful that you are here,
So then,
What are you thinking right now?
Don’t put up the road block;
Answer the questions you don’t want to ask,
None of us do,
How did we come to know each other?
Surprise,
How does it feel?
Does it have a taste;
A specific colour,
Perhaps a sound,
What is it that you see,
How does it feel to know love,
Not just understand it, but truly
KNOW…
The way your skin feels,
The smell of your hair,
Incredible tasting lips,
The sweet resonance of your voice,
The way your smile at 6 am with no sleep can still,
As the bard might say,
Ascend the brightest heaven of invention,
My love,
My one true love,
So very clear to me,
To you,
To all that see us,
Your greatest and lasting gift to me is my sober smile,
Genuine and true,
Inspired by you.
I was born to love you,
You and only you,
I have always loved you,
Knowing all the greatness there is in you,
I see it,
You,
My 31.

Duped
I’m distracted today, my mind running in two different directions –
very different in fact,
polar opposites,
so incredible as I struggle with the inner turmoil
attached to the stumbling almost stuttering display of love,
as so clearly I do,
she stands before me,
witty,
intelligent,
chalk full of wisdom,
loving and beautiful,
oh so beautiful
as to have your incredible beauty betrayed
by a lack of appropriate words to describe your inherently and wonderful;
elegance and grace –
You see –
Stuttering and stumbling.
So of course,
I have this cherubic appeal running through my mind –
Conversely:
Shatter!
My mind intrigued is adversely affected by what is currently happening –
Lies, everywhere!
Blatant lies,
full of the spirit of capitalism,
the true spirit;
Create the consumer,
determine the worth,
fight for the market share,
Ah the beauty of choice.
I remember 12 years ago this month,
sitting in a restaurant writing about the same fate I write of now,
an impending war; and for what,
so that Jed Clampett and his like can have a new home in Beverly Hills.
And the majority in sitting back and doing nothing to prevent a war
so obviously about the new imperialism –
the economics of Sport Utility Vehicles and presidential palaces
show just how hill billy we all really are;
Duped!
Don’t forget that the White House is a Presidential Palace as well!

Sunbathing Love
Sitting in the sun,
With your little bikini,
A blanket and a spray bottle,
Soaking in the sun,
SPRITZ, SPRITZ, SPRITZ,
Calling for the rays to kiss you as I do,
Your hair bright and vibrant,
Blowing in the gentle breeze,
Every once in a while putting it behind your ear,
From behind your glasses,
Your eyes barely perceptible,
Yet still powerful when you glance at me;
On your blanket perfectly placed,
Your form reminding me of Matisse,
Glowing as you study,
I am overjoyed in your company,
Even in the wonderful silence of nature;
SPRITZ, SPRITZ, SPRITZ,
As the mist refreshes you,
I too am refreshed,
By your presence,
By your love;
So beautiful in the sun,
My radiant queen!

The Estate of Love
My soul is the estate of our love,
A grand palace of emotional delight,
Ripe with Chandeliers of kisses,
And stately rooms of each touch we share,
Exquisite details,
Never to be seen again,
A pleasure beyond compare,
An honour,
My soul is the estate of our love,
No matter where we are…
