Emotional Oasis

Enigma

Love is a mystery, a puzzle never to be solved

It gains meaning and intensity the more people are involved

Life and riches have been gained and lost because of it

Songs, movies, books, poems, t v show and music

Many experts claim to know what love is all about

Yet these same ones cannot even express love to their spouse

So love, whatever you are, continue to be here in my life

For every time I see my lady, she puts a sparkle in my eyes

Chosen Words

A word spoken without thought can sever ones’ soul like a knife

A meaningless sentence has more venom than a scorpion’s sting or serpents bite

Apologies by the multitudes do very little to subdue the traumatic shock

 The only recompense for such a travesty is a dirt nap in a pine box

If time heals all wounds and love covers a multitude of sins

Then time is what I give to you, along with love as a dearest friend

To think that I ruined a friendship before it had a chance to start

Leaves me sickened to my very soul and torn deep into the caverns of my heart

I can only wish and pray to God for your forgiveness of the fool that is I

And hope that you continue to grace my presence with your beauty and further enrich my life

morning

Walking through the park in the early morning

Refreshing is the breeze, gently kissing your cheeks

And lightly caressing your hair as it carries the enchanted

Fragrances of your perfume mixed with the amorous

Scent of love…yours and mine…into the horizon that

Gives birth to the embers that burn deep within our hearts

As the colossal star that brightens our pathway make its’

Claim over the darkness

EMOTIONAL OASIS

I have traveled many uncharted lands

Crossing mountains, oceans, desert sands

A long and solemn journey, from child to man

In the search of a treasure so grand

The climb was hard; many obstacles were on my path

 Keeping the elusive treasure in mind although it was beyond grasp

At times feeling the quest was futile, another of life’s traps

Mysterious as an ancient tomb, lethal as a venomous asp

Oceans of sweat and rivers of tears have been shed

As one after another journey played its jokes with my head

Many days passed when I didn’t want to rise from my bed

For the treasure of my search seemed to have fled

Just as I thought the treasure was never to be in sight

The searing heat and burning sands draining away my life
