Seducing

a slight flirtation
hand proper and inviting
sexy games begin

Spacing Out

Inspired by Moonwashed Weekly Prompt – Writer’s Choice &
Reena’s Xploration Challenge #360

selecting a comfy couch
a warm blanket
and a good book
zoning in with liquid wakefulness
the eagerness to consume peace and words
is “literally” a dash of heaven

Hidden Talents

Redux

The best of you is waiting for your decision.
Offer it for public consumption
or stifle it to appease fear?

What are you saving your best for?
Is there a prize for coming in last?
Is defeat gonna be your trademark?

Let you shine!
Tell yourself fear is the hint that your offering needs an audience.
Embrace the challenge!

Throw yourself up against life and stick the landing!
Hold on for the applause,
and keep riding till you can’t ride no more.

Reblog & Redux – Vast Horizons by Stephen W. Buchanan & Horizons by Me :)

A view into
infinity
is spread out through
eternity
in all the love
one could think of
to boldly hold

My piece Horizons inspired Stephen to pen this lovely piece above. Hope you enjoyed it as much as I did!

a view into infinity
the promises of potential are endless
for now, i’ll reflect on my good fortune
as the future will come soon enough

I absolutely love being the catalyst for good—through writing, deeds, actions, or whatever! Thanks to Terry for getting the ball rolling!

Horizons

a view into infinity
the promises of potential are endless
for now, i’ll reflect on my good fortune
as the future will come soon enough

Lifeline

with eyes closed
my other senses experience
what this environment has to offer

breathing in freshness
i exhale a welcome release

hearing nature’s soft tones
they immerse me further still

tasting salt in the wind
it invites me to indulge more

touching the silkiness of the sand
another connection is found

i am restored

Ecstasy can be experienced in many ways…

Water by The Blighters Rock

the ripples parted
as I entered her warm depths
we became water

Eagle Instincts by Reena Saxena

butterflies soar high
caterpillar stories fail
to see the eagle
within – struggle to escape
ephemeral destinies

Tuned In

the hustle and bustle around me
a layer i observe but don’t hear
isolated from the bubbles of others
trying to assimilate

there goes my gently bouncing head
the shoulders follow in synchronicity
to the rhythm of the music

i settle into the warm pocket
of my own construct
this created isolation

smooth vibes
smiles
ease

swaying in this soothing world
the melodies touching my soul
moving slowly through lyrical liquid

if only i didn’t ever have to put my phone on airplane mode
