FANCIES
The tantalizing
scent of a single rose
Oh, how
it conjures fancies and such
Its gentle
fragrance,
a faint remembrance
of a once
favored, intimate touch
Only another
distant flower knows
Each thorn
spurs an urgent tremor
as if,
a tender, pleading hint
Deeply
silent cheers,
muffle
latent tears
enfolded
in swirls of vibrant tint
Through
the seasons it endures
Melancholy
caresses of a velvety petal
never
fail to stir a suggestive mind
A long
ago Summer day,
your certain
way
Cherished moments lost in misty time
Where
the dew has yet to settle....

A
SIMPLE LOVE SONG
I'm sick
of hearing Love Songs
airwaves
full of fluff
so many
meaningless Love Songs
I believe
I've had enough
Can't
anyone fashion
a song
evoking passion
without
getting sentimental
so trivial
and dull
a ballad
to how much I Love You
and, just
leave it at that?
I'm sick
of sad, sad Love Songs
airwaves
full of tears
sorrowful,
moody Love Songs
for once,
I'd like to hear
Lyrics
that dare
to tell
I really care
without
sounding heartsick
while
crying in their beer
Verses
genuine as I Love You
and, leave
it at that!
