A New Meeting
life, poetry
I had seen her face's features.
Now I see her face's whole;
her beauty lifts my soul.
I had seen pictures of her.
Now when I look at pictures thereof,
I see with her the spirit of love.
I had thought her to be many people.
Now I see she is only one.
Awe fills me; the love has begun.
And thus happiness fills my veins,
and thus I give her all I have to give,
and thus I love every moment I live.

The Secret Beauty of the Moment
life, poetry
If you would but pay attention
you would fall in love.
If the sole location of your mind
was the moment and the present
you would fall in love.
If you took naught for granted,
but observed every wonder,
the beauty would overwhelm you.
Live in the moment,
feel in the moment,
but most of all, love in the moment.
For only the moment matters
when you are with her.

Logic's Blindness
life, poetry
Just a moment dear; let me find my heart.
It seems I lost it as I traveled in the dark.
Emotion seems so far off,
despite how much I beckon.
Memories confuse what I think I feel;
the fake tries to pass for what is real.
So I recede from my mind —
as to the truth logic is blind.
With your warm thoughts I will see anew.
With this simple beauty I will find the true.
In the hollow space that used to feel warm;
that is where I will rebuild what is forlorn.

Three Fragments: a tale of wonder
life, poetry
put me at ease, destroy my defenses, let me
breathe the emotion.
then I am so happy.
——
presently the diamond tears shroud my face;
sandman, prithee, shine thy blessing light upon
this seed of happiness.
——
I find myself in an uncharted sea;
it's beauty stretches farther than the eye can see.
Yet I need no map, I need no dove,
for I am not alone upon the sea of love.
