~::~ (Y)our Love ~::~
These are times when I need you around
To make me feel loved and special
While the aura of our love surrounds
And by you I lay securely nestled
These are times when I need you close
To hold on to and hug me tight
Twiddling away with each others toes
And squealing in pleasured delight
These are times when i need you beside
To encapsulate me in your strong arms
Our playful fingers tightly entwined
While in your breath my mellow heart warms
These are time when I need you with me
To kiss me tender ‘neath pearlescent moonlight
Butterfly touches sending souls a’glee
And passion that shines blindingly bright

Day 20 A-Z Challenge, T = Tranquilizer (Free Verse)
~::~ Tranquilizer ~::~
I’ve never slept so soundly before
I’ve never felt tranquil
I’ve never felt so complete before
To my fragile heart’s fill
I’ve never felt so important before
I’ve never felt alive
I’ve never been in love before
All I did was thrive
You came as rain to my flower
As blood through my veins
An antidepressant that calms me
And tranquilizer to my pain
Your thoughts give me confidence
They are the wind ‘neath my wings
Your love gives me the strength
To fly higher than all beings..

Day 13 A-Z Challenge, M = Magnolia (Quatern)
~::~ Magnolia Dream ~::~
Magnolia! You make me yearn
You blossom wild, in grief I burn
Set ablaze for eternity
My immortal love, come to me
In every life, affection spurned
Magnolia! You make me yearn
He came, he left without a trace
Oh, how I crave to see his face!
Scorned love, in every existence
Passion decried of its essence
Magnolia! You make me yearn
Time after time in every turn
Waiting ‘neath the magnolia tree
For love to set my soul a’free
I burn with the orange Saturn
Magnolia! You make me yearn!

Day 12 A-Z Challenge, L = Love (free verse)
~::~ Summer Love ~::~
In darkness I lay with my cellphone beeping!
Waiting for sleep to engulf me
And lead me down the dreamy passages
To a land where trees sing n birds danced
While I lay ‘Neath a purple foliage
With moonbeams glistening over midnight lily
And fireflies enlightening paths..
A silent zephyr playing with my curls
A love song adorning my pink lips..
I sit there by the azure lake
Awaiting his arrival with dusking sun
As the moon adorns the southern sky
The evening breeze brings his musky aroma
I hear him trudging along the valley
With faint footsteps
And with every step my heart skips a beat
As he nears, my cheeks inflame
With a tinge of ruby red
In the blink of an eye am in his arms
The place where I belong
His slender fingers contour my face
As my faint heart begins to race
A random rhythm a mighty thud
As furor begins to rise
A passionate Kiss upon rosy lips
Parched as if forever
A yearning dissolved
As fingers entwined,
We lay there, ‘Neath d starlit sky
Watching faint mars
Lost in desire, appeasing a fire
While the fireflies danced among stars
