She sits at the window
waiting for time to stop
but it never does
She simply carries on

She has outlived all those . . .

WHY
do i let you get to me?

WINGS OF FLAME
Dripping down your mouth
the red spices glistening
Your tongue slides over top
and begs for a drink
to soothe the fire
of the tasty hot wings
Yes.... the wings of flame . . .

By Beverly P.
Long and slender were her legs
Her hair a golden brown
High rollers knew her very well
In this gambling town
Her eyes said more than anyones . . .

To My Daughter Noelle
I sit back and watch you
seeing your beauty
Not just the beautiful long hair you spend hours on
or the way your clothes match perfectly
Not just those . . .

THE LIAR

I tell your truths and cut your size
Your mouth is rare to speak the truth
Perhaps it stems from your youth?

CHINA
Your history stands so regal and tall
But your antics towards humans, not human at all
You're lost in a world, all your own
And now the Olympics . . .

There I sit
book at my side
Needing to finish
So sleep's defied
I rest my eyes
for only a sec
Then suddenly feel

My mind want to go
while my body says "nay"
I know I . . .

Nothing big, nothing grand.... just thought about your smile, your touch, your laughter, your soul touching mine

Yet you find ways to hurt me
And I find ways to forgive you
Is it my own foolishness to keep accepting . . .

Yet not completely mine
My heart aches that I can't have you
But soars when I do
You've changed my world
Mostly for the best
