A DREAM
A dream,
Is an early morning tide
Softly gentle waves caress
the slopes of a slumbering mind
As rolling pebbles call
memories ashore.

The 14th February a celebration for lovers - Valentines Day!
One can easily surmise that it is a day for youth, forgetting that the middle aged and the elderly also have love in their hearts and sweet memories that surface in dreams. For love and attraction belongs to us all!
Love Does
Love does
In flesh
Agitate
Parenthood's
of lust
Love does
in soul
Consummate
the spirit
Empirically
Love is
Oneness
In unity
Supreme

There are many types of love, shared by couples and none can define that one is better than another. I don't want to get serious on this Happy Day so I will leave you with a bawdy smile!
The APPLE and the KNIFE
Question not
fresh russet fruit
For I, this blade
Would pierce
Your tender skin
Letting your juices
run to air
or even lie wet
upon the ground.
Profanities may assail
from the family tree
But what cares I
For am I
not a blade, sharp
well honed?
And you
A fruit
well spun
lying in the shade
for collection?
Come leap dear
We need no Vicar!

Well put, beautifully expressed. It is my little black cat's fourth birthday today, that's what I'm celebrating; little Frankie Valentine I call him.
