Exquisite Tongue

I love the way your tongue does roll,
The way the r-r-r slips from it,
And like an engine roars;
Your exquisite tongue me calls.

Nervous Apprehension

Nervous apprehension serves me right
When rules of society I don't abide
But nervous apprehension serves me best,
I must feel so alive and full of zest.

My Herbal Concoction

I'm trying my hand at some herbology...yes I have absolutely no clue (yet) but I am determined to learn to make something useful. This here is going to be a Sage, Lavender, Spearmint & Clove infused oil (Olive) which I will later use as a carrier oil to add some more medicinal herbs to in order to create a sort of medicinal dental salve for a family member in need. Hope it works...going to be a while before the oil is actually infused in this traditional way....at least a month.

Peace

I am at peace...
in my own skin.
Which came about,
as God's, most gracious gift.
My soul's a hopeful still,
and heart; filled love to brim.

Bespoken

Forget the stars,
Forget the moon,
Such words; for lovers are,
To strangers though; forsaken.

I know you not,
Nor you do me.
Bespoken...to another,
Will simply be my stance.

more paintings...

 

   As promised in my previous comments; here is more of my original work. These two were among the first 10 I ever painted...I've had no formal training, but I did have lots of heart in them! These are oil on canvas.
