The Smitten HeartYou are the pounding thunder in my chest,
Like a drum corps, with every word you speak.
And when I see your smile, there is true rest
And when my eyes meet yours, my knees grow weak.
There is a missing piece in every soul
Filled only by that one, sublimest love.
There are no substitutes to fill this hole
Only you,...

Joshua Moore MinnesotaDamp linens flung aside
sodden cushions
Flank by flank
She was damp
Nickel sack and bark rings
Verdant gaze meet hazel orbs
Ripe late April Northern Flatlands moisture
Slaughterhouse savory mist perfume
Slender dull rose covering on the pane
Cooling unit recirculating
Coral beams groom her visage
Midday vernal noon
the drizzle ceased the light slivered in
Naked gourd blossoms adhesive juice
Lurching brined
The toddler flesh on her abdomen
She...

An unexceptional turning point in our marriageAn unexceptional turning point in our marriage...
unexpectedly came about,
when possible prospect
of the wife going
to Puerto Rico by herself
(for a fêted celebration
of our eldest daughter
and her significant other,
which occurred years ago
courtesy justice of the peace)
attended by family and friends
across the webbed wide word
found me positing how I would feel
staying back at the apartment alone
for a couple...

The WorksCatte'Moutte, is the position below
Corp. Manager. If the numbers are
Right and both staff and he has enough
Votes, 24/30 he will be
Acting management

And the Blah, Blah (company refuses

Worlds Champion.

Chances in the card, wasn't easy
It involves a lot of give and opps.

How to make love to a didgeridoo VIAntiquated pipeline geysers ravage starry nebulae, blast ash. The hurricane bankrupts reed origami masts. It splits overripe pomegranates. Wild animal guitar buzzes, echoing through shattered valleys.
Electrified abdomen dowels bobble and quiver. Balloons, gemstones, hot coals ululate. Feral cello cherries frost and educate potholes. They mold cracked roads into jagged mosaics of fire and ice.
Fractured aqueduct...

To your vaunted place in Heaven

You are gone but not forgotten

All that jazz
all that jazz
Hello Dolly, I must confess
those Louis Armstrong tunes
keep churning in my head
I've had Georgia on my mind
since that night we danced cheek to cheek
when we shared a kiss to build a dream on
Since then, I think of only you
and what a wonderful world it would be
if you'd agree to share your life me
What...

Marriage Is A BusinessMarriage is a business
There's no shortcut to anything
Marriage is originally reorganization of two family resources
This isn't a shortcut at all
This is called giving up the small for the big
You should render great love in your heart
You should render the spirit of sacrifice and dedication
You have to sacrifice your own whims and caprices in marriage
Definitely,...

Stuck Separated Together, part 3There was a time when they talked about everything. They talked about their dreams, their fears, the things that made them laugh until they couldn’t breathe. They talked about their plans, their future, and the life they were going to build together. Now, there’s silence. She wonders if it’s her fault. She wonders if...

My one true loveIn the quiet of the night, I find
A place where hearts, like stars, align.
Your touch, a spark, ignites the sky,
And in your gaze, I learn to fly.
Each word you speak is sweet, like song,
A melody that hums along.
In every laugh, in every sigh,
I see the world through your bright eyes.
Through every storm, through every fight,
Your...

21 Year AnniversaryTwo decades and one, we've shared this ride,
Through laughter, tears, with love as our guide.
The years have flown, but still we stand,
Hand in hand, heart to heart, our love so grand.
We've built a life, a story to tell,
In every moment, in every spell.
From the first hello to this love we've grown,
Together we've flourished, together we've...

A Lovelier Flower I Never Did SeeA lovelier flower I never did see
than the fair beauty that now stands before me.
A lovelier music I never did hear
Than the sweetest voice of one I hold so dear.
I never felt a purer or truer thing
Than when on your precious hand I placed that ring.

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious
Harmonic performers my four girls
Standing alone, a quartet of pearls.
Their musical talent, trivial;
their humor somewhat more typical.
Typical? If and why they marry
trivial? No, extraordinary!
Pearls separated, still wonderful,
girls that are good, they each push their pull.
Four great females compete endlessly.
