Poetry

YOUR ALL

AN EAR TO LISTEN,
WHEN YOU NEED SOMEONE TO TALK TO,
A SHOULDER TO LEAN ON,
WHEN YOUR STEPS HAVE DESERTED YOU.
TWO ARMS TO HUG YOU,
WHEN YOU ARE FEELING BLUE.
A PRAYER TO SEE YOU THROUGH &
DO WELL IN EVERYTHING YOU DO.
A FRIEND YOU CAN ALWAYS CALL -
CAN I BE YOUR ALL?
A SMILE,
TO STRENGTHEN YOUR EVERY DAY,
A KISS TO LET YOU KNOW,
I AM YOURS IN EVERY WAY,
AN INNER FEELING-ECSTACY-
TO LET YOU KNOW YOU ARE LOVED.
MY ENTIRE BEING TO CATCH YOU,
LIKE A MOTHER DOVE.
AND IF BY CHANCE,
YOU SHOULD EVER FALL,
SHOULD I,
WOULD I,
COULD I,
BE YOUR ALL?


THE DEVELOPMENT OF LOVE

ONE WORD,
CAN BECOME A CONVERSATION,
A HANDSHAKE,
CAN BECOME A HUG,
A KISS,
CAN BECOME A PASSIONATE EMBRACE.
MANY THINGS CAN CHANGE -
RIGHT BEFORE YOUR EYES,
THERE IS FANTASY,
THEN THERE IS REALITY,
THERE IS INFACTUATION,
THEN THERE IS LOVE.


THE MAN

Confidence,
That is what I like in a man,
Attitude,
With a little humor to it,
Intelligence,
That keeps me a step ahead of the game,
Sexuality,
That makes my body sing,
Stability,
That can fulfill all my needs and wants,
Honesty,
That lets me know he is true to our relationship,
Spirituality,
For us to pray together,
And the man that possess these qualities,
Is the man I want for all eternity.
