The Pillow: by Judi Beecher
I close my eyes to sleep
and hold you tight.
My body wraps around yours
as you gently stroke my hair.
Your gaze ignites a fire
deep within my soul.
A knowingness overcomes me,
I soar through the air
with newly grown wings.
Unstoppable happiness
overwhelms me with joy.
I waited for so long
knowing you were on your way.
Missing you though I knew not your name
All the thunder and lightening on earth
couldn't replace one minute in time with you.
And finally in front of me you lay,
defenseless, with arms open wide,
my match, my mate, my other half.
Like a cashmere glove our bodies connect
sensually enveloping the fingers that enter inside.
Mouthing the words I love you,
as my body explodes in rhythm.
Soulmates through time,
lovers forever.
Knowing that you are the one
that I've always known.
I reach for you,
the bed is warm..
but the pillow is empty.
Alone but grateful
And a heart
that will never be the same.

FLIGHT OF THE HEART, by Murray Blanchard
A gust of wind sets a lofty leaf,
black foreboding sky lends me to
grief.
Rivers collide, forceful oceans
swell, my thirsting lips, his to
quell.
Weary watered eyes break the spirit
free, reborn soul within allows me
to see.
