flight of the butterfly, rising free

The Hope of New

As I wake this morning
I feel your side of the bed
And you are again not there
I choke back a tear

Forbidden Passion

Your growing hunger
Feeds my darkest need for more
Feast now on my soul

two eyes, one view

February 18

two eyes
two visions
merging
separating
perceptions
sensory cues
images stored
retrieved from the mind's eye
echoes of yesterday
ripples into tomorrow
touching today
meeting in an instant
can one eye perceive depth?
can two eyes not project?
memories of a distant view
perceptions of a moment new
seen by one or two
undertake the next coup
intermingled
thoughts, visions, feelings, beliefs
coupled with another's
creating a new reality
ride the new waves
curtail the resistance
recognize the new reality
built on a word
and a look
and a dream
in an instant
here and now
hear and know
see and renew
be and believe
trust and perceive
in a moment conceive
and all is well
here in this space in time
where two meet
and join
as one
