You Melted into My Heart

(Te amo demais, querida)


You crept upon my chest and melted into my heart


Like a Kitten with your soft endearing cries.


Now I get home every day


to your notes left through my door


just passing, so you left them for my lover’s eyes.


 It was in the snowy winter, as you came into my house.


I joked that you were some snow woodpecker,


as you knocked the slush off your boots.


Little then did I know that we were fixed


together to go far.


Its in the smallest moments shared


we’re laying down deep roots.



Now you’re snuggling like a cat


Breaths like gentle purrs


In the night I’ll sometimes wake and then recall


How sometimes the love we get isn’t planned


or shaped to be.


Some things unexpected turn out


to be best of all.



You crept upon my chest and melted into my heart


Like a Kitten with your soft endearing cries.


Now I get home every day


to you opening my door


just loving, for us both time flies.

In The Final Moment



In this final moment


Watching you walk away


I recall all the love and power


We shared in yesterday.


Regrets welling up to the pricking tears


Soon to reach my face.


What if others notice?


Witnessing to beauty lost


Means no disgrace.




In the final footsteps


Reaching down the street.


Comfort lies in thoughts


That while others loved


We were brief yet


Sweetly complete.


 
In those final words


Heard with pause for silent regrets


I’ll after soothe the loss in moments thinking


Those who’ve never loved live lives


As mere moving silhouettes.


Love has us all as puppets


With joys as random guests.

Happy Happy Valentines’



As I held you in my arms


sweetly surrounded by your charms.


I’m getting those feelings they wrote of


in verses and Solomon’s psalms.



In my eye’s are love’s signs.


But since you haven’t guessed yet


I’ll say it out loud you bet


darling happy, happy Valentines’.




Sent roses fourteen to your door


just a few for now, then I’ll send more.


With notes and candy in baskets,


so you know for certain the score.



But maybe in case, you think it’s all lines.


I’ll say it out loud you bet


darling happy, happy Valentines’.




Bought jewels from London, sparkles from Cartier,


But what use are jewels if love and the heart isn’t there?


You can’t buy some love with a chequebook


so don’t try it, for you’ll despair.




For jewels ain’t so dandy, without words love declines


So I’ll say it out loud you bet


darling happy, happy Valentines’.



Happy, happy Valentines’!

Don’t Love Anyone but You



Some say I love music


Can play a tune or two


Some say notes delight me


Whether Jazz or Blues




People have opinions


Freely given out


Only I know if it’s true


Certain without doubt



I don’t love any one,


Don’t love anyone but you.


Stick to this, you’ll never miss,


All the love I have for you.



Some say I love writing lines


Can pen poems anytime


Some say verse delights me


Whether free or rhymes




People getting notions


Sharing with their friends


Only I know exactly


Which way the river bends




I don’t love any one,


Don’t love anyone but you.


Stick to this, you’ll never miss,


All the love I have for you.
