| "Sea Lust" Poems From The Heart Sample Poems THINKING OF YOU ONE NIGHT ("Editors Choice Award" Poetry.com) Spiraling down to kiss the sea, A falling star from heaven flees And as I watch in lovesick awe, The cool, black sea turns its foamy face- So they touch and the star’s glow dies, To live again within your eyes. DAWN WATCHERS Oh Dawn, translucent tapestry of colors and luscious jewels Come, Aurora, share with us the light and the morning's dew On your velvet cloak that brightly brings the promise of hope anew this day Shame the night devoid of hue your mystic canvas Nature's hand, divine the force The palette of heaven, anxious for the master's stroke, awaits Then, in the east there comes a ray it strikes the blow, the black to fade And from the west, a mighty glow the embers of love reborn, eternal flame that fades with night and glows in the sky Crescent moon watches all, Venus, too, from high above. ON HEARING ELIOT READ ALOUD The ghost of a moment When candlelight flickers, The ghost of a chance To gather more treasure, To store away hours Enveloped in shadows, Wrapped up in the timbre of the resonant voice As he reads from the poet The sound reaches through me And enters, and settles, Exciting and soothing. While candlelight flickers Each word finds its meaning- Breathless. I, captive, Aware of the author, Yearn to discover All Eliot’s dream-world, I will wander forever Through the land of his voice. |

If poetry can be said to be the songs of the heart, then this is a book of heart songs, the deeply felt emotions of a heart that is searching, seeking its own unique way through the labyrinth of human emotions and experiences that make up a life. As you read his words and listen to their song, your heart will soar and your pulse will quicken, his words are like the sea flowing through your fingers as you wade in a crystal clear ocean. When the heart speaks, what we hear is truth. Truth as seen through the eyes of a poet, a poet at heart. |
