Poem, Dawn & Jack






DAWN & JACK

When last we are to see your life
As colors not yet bloomed
We are forever for your strife
In doors unopened doom

We struggle with your loss today
And wander through our haze
From places near and far away
Some joy- some hope- some gaze

Awake be here and laugh a loud
We want it to be true
To see again your days of joy and know forever proud
Of those who last remain in days forever blue

You left at different times we know
And not were you alone, for others sure to follow
We miss you now for what we have known
And your dreams that we must follow

Vacation by Eva Hansen

Vacation 


He weaves the car with expert hands
A master of precision
Through turnpike's gleaming metal strands
At speeds so high, I must confess
They make me think of weightlessness

He glances at the seat in back
Where we are playing
And gives the rowdy ones a whack
While my eyes have gone astray
He spots a deer a mile away

Not quick enough to read a map
I let him do that too
But fasten tight my shoulder strap
And thus we crisscross through the nation
Pretending this is a vacation

HER BODY

Her Body


Shimmering dust to maiden form

Glimmers before my eyes

lust, latent a moment ago, now kilned in heats consent

 Skin toned, body alone, no adorn required now
 


Keratin flows over shoulder and breast

 Close enough to bare

Reveals, enlightens my interest

Time, dwindles in moments spare


Blue, Green, matters not

The eyes with weighted stare

Soon turn, reveals bodacious plot

As satin falls to floor


Gaze and keratin wrap our world

Only love and bare

Caress as one together

 Eternity’s only ware
