(Lighting Up The Dark)
Let me into the arms
as warm as sun sh ine .
Fill my body with life,
spreading, consuming
limb to weary limb,
lighting up the dark ;
my vacant soul.
(Summer Love)
Shower these f lo w e r s
that could bloom
amid the weedy field.
Separate me from the mesh,
a dying sea .
Let my tongue
taste your radiance.
A drink divine;
my mouth, watered,
yearns for so much more,
at the sight of your eyes
and nourishing lips.
(Wait For Snow)
Tender droplets of dew
lick the Autumn leaves,
scattered upon my lawn.
A bare tree,
swiped of its fruit,
can bear no more,
until another season.
It's time.
My heart dormant,
I cast my eyes
through the patient window
and wait for snow.
