An Empty Chamber

An empty chamber
lies within,

No occupancy,
sign again.

Because of past
happenings, and
then.

I now hold you at
bay my friend.

Conversion

The night was ablaze,
Autumn leaves touched
down.

Creating a coverlet of
desire,
Dazed in bewilderment,

Two worlds converged.

Once Again (Quatrain)

Baby, I'd love to meet you there
Run my hands through your raven hair
Kiss again your lips so sweet
Our love again once more repeat.

Daughters of Zeus

Calliope.!

In the midnight

I lay myself

Dear Friend

I

have searched for you.

Our hands almost
touching.

You

were violently jerked
away.

Floating into the sea
of life.

I miss you.

Fata Fata (quatrain)

A silver spoon with my name
engraved

Left at the entrance of the
cave.

Fata, Fata met me there

With golden threads for her
hair.

Friendship

If shadows lengthen in your
world.
Life gets dark and dreary,
I'll be your friend,
I'll meet you there,
If you're alone and weary.
