Stay Awhile
stay awhile
in this hearth and home
this heart place
we created
the place of sunshine and smiles
my soft touch on the back of your neck
your fingers gliding across my lips
the pillowfight we had that left
feathers peeking out from the oddest places
the comfortable silence sitting between us
because we knew each other
even without speaking
stay awhile
and tell me a story
about your life
before me
any tale
of funny things
of sad moments
of past love savoured
of dreams in the night
of the little hopes you told no one about
of the silly and strange in any thing
stay awhile
and stretch your body out next to mine
and let us warm ourselves
through each other’s warmth
stay awhile
with
me.

Rain
i was walking in the rain
so softly
so softly
so softly
the rain teased my hair
the rain kissed my lips
the rain skipped across my skin
the rain fell fell fell
and i was falling
my spirit fell
into the myst into the mystic
i fell into a dewy dream
i fell into a dewy dream
i fell into a dewy dream
where my spirit danced
where my spirit sang
where my spirit gave thanks
for the life-giving waters
for the dream-giving waters
for the heart-filling waters
for the gift of the rain.
