Two Women, Two Woes

One She sat silently studying the crackling fire. She inhaled his blanket and fondled his giant beverage mug, empty. Her eyes burrowed into the burning logs, searching for him. His face flickered in the flames. She wept. After a few moments, she sobbed and wiped her nose with a Kleenex she had buried in her fist. She hummed a song they sang together in front of this fireplace. His soft tenor voice echoed in her memory, his sun-hewn hand wrapped tight around hers. As the embers glowed low now, the warmth drained from the room.  Flickering Flames She nestled tighter into the corner of the sofa hoping to find some hidden heat to stave off the shivers that shook her now. She closed her eyes and kissed his soft strong lips which turned her to jelly each time they embraced. She wept. The grandfather clock in the hall struck twelve times. Her heart swelled and broke over and over, in throbbing waves, recalling his presence. She wrapped the blanket tight around her small, lithe

She

She She smiled and sent stars my way. I floated high on clouds all day. I drifted past the Milky Way! I hope I see her everyday. She blew a kiss in my direction. I caught it quick; her sweet affection. Every mirror shows her reflection. Her two lips are my resurrection She brushed against my arm. Electric! Her touch has made me magnetic. My orbit now is she-concentric. Around her now I act eccentric. She spoke my name out loud! Now my heart feels so proud. She picked me from the passing crowd. I wander in a daze; I'm wowed. She sent a poem in a letter. Now I know I shan't forget her. I never can feel any better. I am now, you see, her love debtor. © 2013 ajwrites57 A Long ❤  ❤  ❤  If you enjoyed this poem, please find more  here.

My heart, feels

My heart, feels  My heart, feels naught tonight. No feeling felt, no hope or light. My heart's numb, no wrong or right. No pain or pleasure, no black, no white. My heart, feels no thing today, No colors seen, only grey. My heart's frozen, icy flay. No joy or gladness, painful splay. My heart, feels none, any of you, No emotions shared, not one clue. My heart's shut, tight with glue. No smiles or kisses, aching blue. My heart, feels, lost and alone. No tender touch, touch unknown. My heart's cry, silent groan. No hugs or holding, no hand's zone. © 2013 ajwrites57 A Long ❤ ❤ ❤

Santa Sat

Santa Sat  Santa sat in calm reflection, his heart was set in one direction, Christmas day is near. Santa Checks His List His opened list, he checked it twice Who was naughty, who was nice, Christmas day is near. Soft white beard, stroked in thought, Making sure no one's forgot. Christmas day is near. Santa's head chock full of names, Who gets dolls and who gets games. Christmas day is near. Santa's workshop in a flurry, Santa pushed the elves to hurry. Christmas day is near. The North Pole filled with jolly hustle, Santa laughs at frantic bustle. Christmas day is near. Santa's Workshop Mrs. Claus feeds and stuffs her man, To make him jolly as she can. Christmas day is near. Toys for Tommy, toys for Jane, No one forgotten, it is plain. Christmas day is near. Mrs. Claus loves to sing, Fa-la-la's when bells do ring. Christmas day is near. Santa’s elves outdo themselves, Stacking toys upon the shelves.

thinking of you

 thinking of you When the shining sun splits the morning sky, I will have lain awake watching the moon on its transcendent journey through the stars, thinking of you. My thoughts, like dreams, swirl 'round the days and nights we spent in splendid joy. The joys and ways we laughed and danced in the sun and moonshine replay in my mind. When the sun fills the sky and the morning dew has melted, I will have lain awake watching the clouds display themes of loving you. With glee and mirth we wandered to and from on earth. Our hearts entwined and joined around the tasks we undertook for life. Minds immersed and immense thoughts we thought together. Plans and purposes placed in time to complete as one. The minuets and waltzes that guided our feet to the tune of today's tomorrows set our path. Our smiles and jests joked in silent laughing fill my memory. When the sun beats high and warms the glorious globe we inhabit, I will have lain watching each ray

Your Love

Your Love Your love surrounds me like the morning mist, adheres to me, saturates me, inundates my every pore. The sweet breath of your love infiltrates my being, fills my lungs full as I inhale. Your alluring scent refreshes my spirit, revives my lagging being. I’m intoxicated by the fragrance of your love, completely overtaken, overwhelmed, shaken. The fragrant haze of your love hovers over my heart. The morning breeze of your love cools my heart from the heat of the day. Wisps of your love swirl and entangle me with strands of your love. The wind of your love settles the tempests of life. I’m calmed by a gust of love from your heart. The currents of your love waft toward me and inveigle my heart. My lips sip the nectar of your love, my tongue luxuriates in the delicious flavors of love. The bouquet of your love, like the sweetest wine, fills my head with powerful visions. I drink from the fountain of your love. I am sated.  I imbibe droplets of liquid, as potent as t

A Bite of Your Love

A Bite of Your Love A Bite of Your love I took a bite of your love today. Your love was juicy and sweet. A hint of bitterness was there, too. I took a bite of your love today. Cinnamon and honey filled my mouth. A hint of sadness was there, too. I took a bite of your love today. Your love was full of life and fire. A hint of excitement was there, too. I took a bite of your love today. Raspberry rippled across my tongue. A hint of gladness was there, too. I took a bite of your love today. Your love was happy and bold. A hint of fear was there, too. I took a bite of your love today. Your love overpowered me. A hint of glory was there, too. I fed from the fullness of your love today, I became intoxicated and fell in love today. A hint of eternity is there, too. © 2013 ajwrites57 A Long ❤  ❤  ❤  If you enjoyed this poem please read more at  Hubpages
