Let romance into the air, let it be light and colorful and free, release it upon a million fluttering wings to fill the summer evening with fairy-tale magic and beauty. Strike up the orchestra but withhold the singing; let our mouths be used instead for smiling between kissing, losing our senses among the scents of … Continue reading Let Romance
Floral fragrance, summer night, slow dancing beneath the moonlight, breath on neck, fireflies, quavering voice, her lifted eyes, love and nature abloom, alive, a kiss beneath the trees: a mix of dreams and memories... All words and images ©LauraDenise
Beneath the leaves and soft pinks, seeds of summer love begin to blossom. Fingers reach in hesitancy for her hand with a heart so softened, so open and vulnerable; fear freezes halfway as feelings become unutterable, but her flesh he brushes and realizes she met him the rest of the way, hands join, … Continue reading Entwined
Love as a bud is not a new idea, but love for me is, and in the most beautifully fragile, hesitantly opening in the softest of morning light, I feel the possibility, and the sweet scent of it, I slowly breathe in.
Somewhere over the rainbow, beyond the shore, beyond the bay, someone is daydreaming of getting away to the paradise I get to live in every day, yet here I am already there, upon the same rainbow daydreaming of following the arc to the paradise of your arms if but only for one evening... … Continue reading Same Rainbow
Where the pier ends is where my dreams begin, where the colors of sky and aquahorizon blend. I sail away into the unknown, following charted stars to return to the home I have yet to find but am certain I have been missed, and I cannot wait to fall into the embrace … Continue reading Where the Pier Ends
Sangria sky, sangria sea, sip by sip, I further fly, further sail away from here to me. And in the dream with open eyes transfixed on the swirling reds of passion, I torture you with sensuality then myself surrender, as your lips take mine to the floor in a heated dance, and I am liquified … Continue reading Sangria Sky
Hello, romantic fantasies! No. Goodbye. Wait! Come back. Oh no. (Ugly cry.) Oh how my heart longs to dance, fly free, but oh, the fear of fallacy… what if I am not worthy? what if the fall to reality breaks my bad wing permanently? It’s safest perhaps not to dream. But … Continue reading She Weaves
Our love comes softly, a whisper that turns to melody and plays over my fears habitually, a trickle that drips, that slowly fills, despite the cracks and inner hole, overflows, spills, a flicker in the eyes from the light of our souls, a wordless knowing, glimpse of the divine through glassless windows, … Continue reading Our Love Comes
Renew your heart with every sunrise, keep wishing upon every first star, nourish the embers glowing deep within, never cover the tracks to where you are, resist the clipping of hope's wings, wait out the gray that clouds truth, leave no place for doubt to land, for love will find you. Poem and images … Continue reading Love Will
