The little things
I learned from love
You can never
Have enough
Though fast or starve
Run far from it
It always
Catches up
The little things

I woke up
Then dreamt of yesterday
All the days leading
Up to it
Slowly
Surely
Like a breeze
Gaining strength
To power a fleet
Of silent sailboats
Against the tide
So unlike a race
Us two ran last
Holding hands
Did not capsize
Basked in the sun
Caught fish
Explored vast islands
Spent time
All we had left of it
Till the finish line
Capella
Wholly deserving of love
She wore it like a shawl
Sent shivers on skin
Taking all in
The healing soaked
Right to her core
I hung on
Your every word
Tossed about gently
Like lost garments
In the night
On the deck
Of a ship at storm
Trip hazard
But loved once worn
In the daylight
As the anchor
Finds safe habour
Among living creatures
Seeking safety
Searching sea bottom
For friends and tidbits
Till bottomless glass
Tilts no more
I set sail again
Longing horizon
Begs me for more
Love like
An ugg boot
Slide on skin
Warm meet-cute
Spark the fire
Velvety thick
Soft to touch
Liqueur sip
Massage all
Aching places
Best worn
In private
Never take
It off
Bloom
Soon as second summer fades
Gold leaf heralds the change
Climb atop pinnacle feast
Yearning eye spectacle
Brilliant openings abound
Underfoot and far
As the eye wanders
Missed by only a week
Left behind late bloomers
Scarce, rare and welcome
Shot of red against
Hard rock, lucid pools
Dreaming what came before
Never gazed upon
Rigid timing of fair nature
Meant never saw one other
In full bloom and open
Ready to receive a lover
Secret smiles
Eyes averted
Hiding under hair
Meditating upon
Whatever's down there
Over your shoulder
Thrown without care
Showing me all
Pearls and chapsticks
In silent return
Mine replies
Yes I would like
To kiss you
One night only
Tomorrow knows
Every morning
Beside myself
How many ways I'll tell
Lengths and miles I'd go
To prove what you
Already know
I'd win Master chef
Learn to cook
World's best
Find tea of Ceylon
Brew delicious
Breakfast cup
Kick start business
Buy your dream
Beach house
Licence to fly
Drop you in
Western Wilds
Sail boat to ride
Marine exploring
Ocean tide
I'll take you all
These places
On our imagination
But only time
And place I have
Right here and now
Beside
Ode to M
Held on tightly
To mournful delightful
Words shedding down
A certain slant of light
Carried me onward
Into my enlightening
Years oft slighted
Hands held tightened
Let go realise
I never knew who
Bold and bright
She was me in spite of
Centuries between
Longing look at frond
A delicate hand
Responds to us not
Forget blue floral
Tongue tied knot
Unraveling over endless
Sails swept away
As long as the storm
Brews on horizon
Grip is tight
Bow turned windward
Fears stilled inward
At first sight
Of love
Introspection
Pay attention
Naval gazing
To the heart
Inward looking
Realising
Affect affords
Little openings
Where thoughts
Seeping in
Under skin
Elevating
Heart making
Every day
Tiny delights
Intermingled
With spice
Grounded
Deeply rooted
Interconnected
Signs of life
When I look within
It's you I find
