Oh my!
Please come say hi
You are so very fine
Oh my!
You caught my eye.
I can’t even stay sly
Oh my!
It’s like the sky
Is clear for the first time
Oh my!
Please let me buy
A drink, or meal, or pie
Oh my!
I cannot lie
I wish to touch your thigh
Oh my!
You said goodbye
Can you at least say why?
Oh my!
I’m just a guy
Giving an honest try
Oh my!
I just might die
Failing you makes me cry
Oh my!
I sadly sigh
Another lonely night
While I’ve loved before
I’ve never felt like this
And from our first kiss
My heart was all yours
Yet another fire
Was lit inside me
Allowed to roam free
It rose even higher
Love I’ve never felt
And such love returned
Many times been burned
As my heart did melt
I feel home at last
Finally at peace
Love will never cease
Greater than the past
Little bit primal
Yet far more mature
Like gold, love it pure
Present, future, Final
When someone says you’re cute
Spark
You notice the ripe fruit
Spark
New feelings stir deep down
Spark
You want the ‘one’ around
Spark
You notice hair and eyes
Spark
Checking out the bare thighs
Spark
A hunger fresh and new
Spark
These feelings so confused
Spark
A new and sudden spark of desire
Lights in each a drive of romantic fire
Now the fire of desire’s raging
No fear of fragile, tender hearts breaking
Searching intensely with the clock ticking
Deeply in the ritual of dating
Trusting that the perfect one is out there
Although hard to find, they’re waiting somewhere
And in your heart you feel that they are near
But what if you never find them, you fear?
No need to worry, you are in your prime
Enjoy your youth. Go out to drink and dine
If you’re lucky, your dream mate you will find
Young and attractive with plenty of time
Raging fires tend to burn out of control
The smoke and heat of lust can take its toll
Anxiety of not reaching your goal
Youthful beauty fleeting, we all grow old
My heart was young and green
So full of life and love
I thought you were a queen
Sent to me from above
Turns out you’re born below
Complete with pair of horns
Instead of a halo
A rose covered in thorns
Ever thirsty for blood
A vampire in the night
A monster from the mud
Giving children a fright
My heart ripe for reaping
The fertile crop was torched
On my knees just weeping
My loving heart was scorched
Spreading her leather wings
Her laughter filled my head
Singing a wicked song
Spat and left me for dead
Graduate
Verb
To complete a course of study
Thirteen years since you had a cubby
In your kindergarten class
The final one you passed
And tonight you stand together
And diplomas you gather
Tassels moved to the side
Parents hearts filled with pride
Parties you attend to celebrate
Money, gifts, graduation cake
Family and friends from near and far
Tonight you’re the shiny star
Tomorrow begins a new adventure
One challenge gives way to another
Many their advice will give
But you’ve only one life to live
So look inside yourself to find
The strength to ever climb
To the mountain tops that call
For you to conquer peeks so tall

High above the trees, free from their grip, a single hawk glided effortlessly, sharp eyes scanning for prey. Silently the bird rode the air current and used it to carry him where he wanted. Durbar studied him with envy for a long minute through a window in the trees, crisscrossing like bars from a cage. The hawk suddenly folded his wings, darted towards the earth and out of Durbar’s sight for a moment, then returned to the sky with a hare in his claws. Durbar smiled at the bird of prey as it floated off to his nest to enjoy his meal in peace and freedom, a twinge of jealousy and unfulfilled desire stung the young man’s heart.
Though life swirls around
Birds, bees, flowers in full bloom
Lifeless with no love
Many names I’ve been called
A few titles I’ve been given
Some were deserved
Others spat with venom
None are more meaningful
Than all of the others
For when a child’s born
They began to call me father
It’s a title given out
With much ease at first
As I stood by at witnessed
My children’s births
But it’s a life’s commitment
Of sacrifice and effort
To deserve the title
And hold it high with honor
It’s one I’ll carry
For my lifetime
I’ll wear it proudly
For my children are ever mine
To protect and nurture
Educate and guide
Nothing more could ever
Fill my heart with greater pride
I’ve always been a man who enjoys a drink.
I like to sip on ice cold beverage.
Whether beer or wine, or lemonade pink.
I’ll sip something new without much courage.
But I’ve not found one as satisfying.
Than the one you handed me late one night.
It’s aroma is intoxicating.
And it’s flavor is quite a nice delight.
It’s gentle affect warmed me to the core.
It lightens my mood and brightens my day.
No matter how much I’ve had I want more.
What its full affects are I cannot say.
All I know is, your love has made me drunk.
And it’s put my mind in a complete funk.
