A whisper oh so very soft fell from my lips today,

Did you hear me?

As I pulled myself near your ear I heard myself say,

I’ll love you eternally,

From my lips came a sensation that I love to feel,

Did you feel my lips,

My hand wanders upon you to absorb your appeal,

Through my fingertips,

A sigh ever so soft I heard that expresses your heart,

I’m a student of “you” art,

So exquisite you are as morning light moves to each part,

My words of love I hope to impart,

Yet it seems a soft whisper best imparts the love word,

Exceeding everything I’ve heard,

Kisses upon nudeness are calmed by rose petals on your form,

Yet I’m a raging storm,

Tender are my kisses while I contain the beast within,

Softly placed upon nude skin,

Escaping passion now controls what man remains of now,

I must have you somehow,

Then you wake to my temptings and I feel a sudden glow,

A blessing for me you bestow,

Your eyes contain the gift of paradise for the chosen he,

Thank you for choosing me.

The end by Pat for Patti.  October 2016

In a dream laced with teardrops I was again taken from you,

My heart cried for you with a loneliness I once before knew,

From this vessel of heartbreak I watched you fade from view,

I reached out for you wishing their was something I could do,

Countrymen and citizens chose to send aged warriors to war again,

No life is wasted they said by sending old men that fought back then,

And again I fear, I am called upon to carry out mankind’s greatest sin,

The able bodied men with illness were the first selected of we men,

We were sad, we were old, worn through by the travesty of a past war,

Every burden I’d forgotten through the years returned in a downpour,

Into the fray I went once more clinging to an aged photo of you I wore,

Separation teardrops have yet to cease tho’ it’s been a week or more,

“They were baby killers” the leaders said of we men drafted in war past,

Too tough to die of napalm or agent orange we warriors of old are recast,

Forty six years ago I thought I’d left it behind, how could this be forecast,

Every lonely moment away from you comes flowing back incredibly fast,

As tears rush down my face and vertigo gives gravity an assist I’m down,

With each man still in shock they barely notice the old man on the ground,

As I crawl through thorns Benadryl slows the world from spinning around,

I pull your photo from my uniform and through you my courage is found,  

I am chosen by the commander of long ago but he is anguished now,

To fulfill a death assignment I must accomplish in triumph somehow,

Praying the bullets are no longer true as I must return to keep my vow,

Although I hate snow and cold I wish I was walking in it with you now,

You must be so afraid now to have me away from you for so long,

But as I promised to you I will find a way to continue and be strong,

My mind is spinning as I depart my body and I wonder what is wrong,

I have left my body five times before but I…..I feel as if I don’t belong,

Confusion has filled my mind as below I see events that can’t be real,

War continues around the scene below yet in my mind it seems unreal,

My body is absent the scene below perhaps it’s a dream of low appeal,

Have I died and broken my vow to return to you?  This must be unreal,

I’m lost in a zone unknown to the living unless having been here before,

Suddenly I feel a sensation of shaking as I start to float once more,

War has disappeared from my reality as our vessel is washed ashore,

Still I float above when I feel a flood of desperation for the one I adore,

Prayers cross my lips and I cry for our Lord to save my wretched soul,

Somehow my prayer has been answered and I leave my warrior role,

I open my eyes to find you as I pray for more time for what war stole,

You whisper “it’s but a dream”, it was more my angel, I’m again whole.

I love you baby, by Pat for Patti

Tonight I heard the whispering air in motion through the trees,

For the first time in twenty years I could hear the Texas breeze,

While praying for another miracle that cancer would pass me by,

My mind wondered to the miracle of love, enough to make me cry,

The dues I pay are minimal to feel the joy of our love melded souls,

I’ve set my eyes upon an angel that balances between two roles,

Men desire women pure as the falling snow yet wild beneath sheets,

That tease beyond men’s touch yet with a kiss from him she heats,

So many doubt the fact that we make love every night when not ill,

Is it that they’ve created a world of their making that they deny still,

They’ve forgotten that first kiss of ignition that gave love it’s start,

Or did I experience a supernatural force seldom felt of the heart?

When raindrops fall upon their flesh does it awaken a sullen mood?

Does the temperament of the night penetrate their soul to brood?

When such is true they’ve never known the entry into an angel’s eyes,

Once beyond the iris dwells her soul with space as clear as hazel skies,

Hazel eyes are kaleidoscope skies of heavenly delight circled in blue,

I swear it’s true no doubt it’s true that angels takes haven within you,  

Too often you’ve endured for me to act as my guardian when I need,

When desperation became my M.O.* you prayed I’d recover with speed,

Seldom did I dwell in darkness alone for you came in visions somehow,

Ever-linked together in such that we both knew the need was now,

Souls sharing a lineage of centuries past to link more than our hearts,

Somehow I know, I know it’s so, that we both share common starts,

Through time’s window memories of centuries past find me in dreams,

I’ve felt great lust between my loins before exchanging vows it seems,

Each setting was new yet old perhaps different is proper instead of new,

You’ve held my head as lifeblood nourished a fresh rose planted by you,

With each passing my love grew for you to reach this new plateau,

Only one man has been known to reach this pinnacle of loving you,

You knew who I was yet you didn’t know of my contradicting word,

I felt it too what you knew, a flash of recognized love we both heard,

As confusing as it sounds to hear the sounds of love in a past life,

My first time of memory past was you saying “I do” to be my wife,

Within a second of first seeing you I knew you were my missing part,

So much emotion of love came flowing through to settle in my heart,

So many beautiful things I’ve seen but none can compare to you,

If barriers became insurmountable I’d still find a way to get through,

My strength is from your tender kiss of love that only I have known,

I’ve stolen kisses beneath clear Texas skies as a full moon shone,

Tonight I’ve given thanks to God for the chance to endure with you,

Each time our hearts have linked to fight all odds love pulls us through,

Should this become a barrier to climb place a kiss upon my lips again,

My beautiful angel please know, each moment in your heart is a win.

I win again.  The end.  By Pat for the beautiful angel Patti.

*Modus Operandi- method of operation, habit, my similar behavior

Every moment in every day has been meaningful to my heart,

Since eighteen I’ve awakened to you ready for the day to start,

From the morning’s air I draw a breath to whisper a soft hello,

Hello my sweet, you are still the most beautiful woman I know,

You’ll never know the sadness I have from a short term goodbye,

Thoughts of misfortune ride my nerve endings until I almost cry,

Small ponderings of goodbye I try to avoid yet they still dwell,

Coming from the same place inside where faith and love parallel,

Please never go, please stay at my side until stars fade to dark,

From the love that we know a home is made for our love to park,  

How warm my heart feels as I pull you close on a cold winter night,

The touch of your skin awakens my senses to extremes of delight,

I’ve danced with you most nights in a lover’s embrace of passion,

In a sexual celebration of union shared as a nightly love session,

Each moment I’m in your presence I am absorbing your essence,

Your essence brings heaven’s comfort without angel’s presence,

Etched into my face are time’s advances upon my body to be seen,

As I’ve stumbled through aging time has avoided you to aid esteem,

No woman seasoned as you goes untouched yet it seems you are,

For you my beautiful angel are my light and you’re my guiding star,

To aid my attraction to you is the childlike soul within your form,

For two souls to know on first sight the reason they were born,

Is a miracle of placement that each event in our life came to be,

In times of desperate need your instincts have brought you to me,

You’ve come to me as I cried out your name in desperate need,

Oh how I love you Patti, we have sought each other with speed,

I’ve over sixteen thousand mornings of each time being the first,

For I am in awe of your beauty and self, within you I am immersed.

The end.  For you Patti,

I love you more than words can say.

You have more beauty than the galaxies in which we exist,

Never have I seen such beauty that it is impossible to resist,

For I must see and I must touch although I know my worth,

Upon first sight I knew I’m born to serve you upon this earth,

From starlight comes the twinkle in your heavenly eyes,

Hazel flecked with rust irises are encircled with blue of skies,

Celestial words to describe essence of you always fall subpar,

If I was a traveler of space I’d buy you diamonds from afar,

On a planet far away the greatest maker of adornment is found,

Within the genius of it’s mind creations of beauty abound,

To be viewed ‘tween celestial mounds of my angel’s breast,

Still my heart skips a beat with just a look to view your “rest”,

All of our galaxy’s gold is not enough to pay for this man’s due,

For I am but a traveler of our time that has fallen in love with you.

The end.  By Pat. I love you.

POEM: For My Husband

My husband I write these words for you,

You are a part of everything I do,

Always on my mind and in my heart,

I think of you when each day starts,

Feelings of love within my heart,

Together in love, never to part,

So proud to have you as my man,

For you I will do everything I can,

Our love has been a fairy tale,

Magical moments make my heart swell,

You are my king, the love of my life,

I’m so proud to be your wife.

The end. By Patti Napier King
