POETRY: THE SOFT FLOWING BEAUTY

Your hair spilling over your back
looks like a forbidden waterfall,
so exquisite yet so powerful.

The soft flowing beauty
can shape hearts with its desire
and over many years
can smooth the rough surface of the rocks.

Silken is its touch
with a lash of fire at its tips.
Taking on the night with its radiance

The power held by your heart
can divert the sun to its wishes.
Your heart feeds my life,
and my life is for you.

At the bottom of the waterfall
is the misty whiteness of your pale skin.
The violet cascade from the power of your hair
causes your skin to shimmer and ripple,
drying only with the touch of my hand.

And the water flowing
from the freedom of your beauty
is the love i have
for you.

I can feel your wide-eyed wonder piercing right through me
I sense you?re asking yourself all the usual questions
But you?re really not ready or even willing to answer

In a world that has such little respect for dignity and trust
I already know that deep down inside you?ve come to a place
where you do what you must
You?ve come to believe in some men
It?s the actions of others you don?t trust

Yes, and even to survive in a world
were you often find yourself hiding from love
all you ever really asked for was to feel a little trust
Fancy words and pretty speeches are not worthy of your heart

And although many have tried, and only a few have even come close
in a true measure of things, I know that I?m closer than most
These are just a few things I ponder when I look into your eyes

3
What is it I see in you?
Is it you or just an image.
Take a picture of your soul and send it to me
and it would be... Sheer poetry.

I see depth in you
and mirrors in your eyes reflect poetry.
And your words form
that speak to my heart.

I can't seem to get you out of my head.
You speak to me with sheer poetry
And you make me feel like no one ever has.
You have me whether I know why or not.

Your Love is... Sheer Poetry.

And I kissed you in the
darkness of a daydream
Among the thick mists of
a foggy night's greeting
Not once, not twice, but
repeatedly
I kissed you in passion of
a meeting
A destiny across a
thousand dreams
Across eternity and back

And I kissed you in
the cold night air
Repeatedly
Our dreams consumed in
the grip of destiny
Lovers engulfed in
mindless pursuit of love

I kissed you for hours
in the coldness of night
Uncaring, needing and
loving you
A love beyond imagination
Of countless choruses of
angels
In a black misty night
Uncaring

And I kissed you as
never before
Meeting again this way
I kissed you with a
passion that grew
from a myriad memories
Of endless dreams of loving
Endlessly


5
Just as the moon shines in the night,
Exquisite your eyes gleam so bright;
Sunlight pours from your heart and warms your soul,
Soft to the touch, yet precious as gold;
In these words I explain my insight of you,
A feeling so right and a heart so true;
Clear as crystal, night melts to the sea;
All that's left is you standing with me...

6
My heart soars for you,
like a plane gliding
above the milky white clouds.

My mind races with thoughts of you and I,
like a horse running
with the speed of the winds.

My heart pounds when we touch,
like the sound of thunder
in the far distance.

My body trembles when you touch me,
like that of a small child
awed by what they see.

My soul opens up to you,
like a rose bud as its beauty unfolds
and bares its soft petals to the world.

My eyes sparkle when I gaze upon you,
like morning sunlight grazing upon a spider web
covered with droplets of dew.

My nose tingles when I breathe the scent of you,
like the fresh smell after a rainshower
in the forest.


7
Sometimes I condemn this pretentious world
That surrounds me...
Occupied with restrictions
Created by guardians
In efforts to guide their descendants
To a superior path,
But often this path proves to be ineffectual
Void of common sense and reason
Rather, exclusively devout to religion
Similar to the theology of the early Renaissance
Something which I minutely understand
And yet don't care to understand.
I choose to break loose of these absurdities
And voice my opinion
For my eternal love.


8
I hope this brings a smile to your face,
With the warm remembrance of my embrace.

I lie awake thinking of your touch,
I hope I am missed as much.

Soon I will hold your body close to mine,
And see what kind of ecstasy we can find.

I asked 12 men over 60 what they miss most about their 40s and not one of them said their career, their body, or their social life — every single one described a moment so specific and so small that I had to pull over to write them down by Tommy Baker
