I DON'T LIKE TO SLEEP ALONE poem


from the ABC set POETRY - A Passage of Motion 2

I Don’t Like to Sleep Alone

at night. Just to think of it, the aloneness
missing your lips, the feel of your
body, smoothness and entanglement

the lather of our moments, that
sweet smell of assent.

Life is fleeting as snowflakes and I
struggle to dance between
the falling. The journey
is worth the risk, as my wife
leads me to the bedroom of my desires.

From there I capture a balance,
keeps me from falling into despair.
Life is love. Love is forever.

Hi Julie, My wife Esther and I are now in Alberta visiting our daughter on their little ranch. They call their 200 acre property with 60 cows, three llamas, 12 sheep, one horse, five donkeys, three dogs and one cat, an acreage. I guess there are many ways to look at it. Their neighbour has 3,500 acres and that is a farm-ranch. Be home Sept 30th. with some new material to post. God bless, Richard & Esther Pro.
