Alive
You are alive
Animated
A beehive
Exhilarated
Look at your face
You smile shines
Not a trace
Of worldly confines
Exciting
Titillating
Breathtaking
Electrifying
You captivate a room
So bubbly and fresh
A flower in bloom
Beaming outside your flesh
Everyone notices
They are drawn to your energy
Simply dazzling and amazes
Special mysterious alchemy
Your charm
Your power
Your presence
Your attractiveness
Everyone wants you
To steal your vigor
Because they are blue
Playing a fool and poor actor
You are spontaneous
So alive in your spirit
Your harmonious
With this grand merit
I want it too
Since I was fifteen
Constantly trying to renew
Feelings for a girl at fourteen
I have my chance
To suck her marrow
Maybe by happenstance
But I have climbed the plateau
And I am not coming down
To be a mere mortal
I am on here playground
And I too will be adorable
Tag: opportunities
Shift
Shift
Left to right
Forward and back
Dark to bright
Run to tack
There are many ways to go
And I must change
Do not go with the flow
I must turn the page
Leave Jackson
Do not be shocked
Viking or saxon
Not land locked
A new journey
Sailing away
Leaving absurdity
A new sunset everyday
My intent
My want
My plan
My desire
At sixty not too late
To transition
A new journey and fate
A grand ambition
But wait
Who is this girl
That I went on a date
Her hair has so much curl
I am smitten
By her beauty and enthusiasm
Maybe sailing is not written
She has to be an addendum
My plan b has crumpled
Moving to plan c
My arrogance humbled
I now can see
I want her in my life
And she makes me laugh
With no crazy strife
I want to be her better half
In this moment
In this time
In this minute
In this space
I will pursue her
Wanting to know if she is real
Not some imaginary blur
And my feelings are real
Sailing will be there
But I can not let this pass
I am chasing that wild hair
And this charming lass
There is so much opportunity
There is so much promise
There is so much compassion
There is so much expectation
Go all in
Do not miss the chance
I can only laugh and grin
A sailboat can not kiss or dance
I Never Dreamed
I never dreamed
Someone from my past
Feelings redeemed
So much time has passed
I kept up with her
We would always be friends
She would concurr
Our friendship transcends
We have reconnected
Both being single
We have redirected
For us to mingle
She watched me sail
Commenting along the way
I called her instead of email
Just not any comminique
We talked for hours
Just about everything
She must have superpowers
She was so addicting
We communicated frequently
Four or five times a day
I enjoyed her evidently
Because she was so gay
She was brilliant
She was happy
She was exciting
She was captivating
I wanted more
I wanted that energy
I wanted to explore
I wanted synergy
I asked her out
And she agreed
What a rout
I decreed
Too smooth
Too slick
Too easy
Too sleek
We were so agreeable
I was flabbergasted
Our future is unforeseeable
And it was not forecasted
Now a new journey
Where will we go
A magnificent tourney
Only God will know
Ferocious Tide
Why do I grieve Gave it my all Rewarded with a reprieve To stand alone and tall Reprieve from stress Walking on eggshells A game of chess With no wedding bells More money To spend everyday Milk and honey Spend it my way Travel the world Sights to see Twirl and whirl I am free Drugless My mind works I must confess These are perks Write my rhyming verse Create and produce thought I have beaten the curse No more brain rot Not drugged dumb As a mindless ghoul I have overcome The ceaseless drool But is it all that great To have all this Without a mate To hug and kiss This is why I mourn I have lost my buddy Our love torn My heart muddy I am so conflicted So many upsides I am unrestricted But a ferocious tide So may extremes A passionate obsession I had so many dreams And a confession I miss her She was unique A sweet liqueur An aura of mystique There will be no one like her No one to replace our fun I miss being her chauffeur But we are done She sees no need For a sidekick Independent and freed She is her own chick And this is life Not very equitable and fair Without a wonderful wife And a journey to share A treacherous fate To be alone Which I do hate Nearing my gravestone No reason to seek Another to share I am past my peak Along with my wear and tear Enjoy the positives And all their good yields Eliminate the negatives And their battlefields Slow down Stay true Do not frown Or turn blue The easiest way to enjoy What time is unexpended Be good and a kind boy As God intended
