Touch

My mind wanders as I think of you
The look in your eyes filled with fire
Sensing in your smile a smirk wanting more
One hand caresses your cheek
The other pulls you close
Lips interlocking in passionate flame
The feeling of wanton lust fills our bodies
Running a hand along your shoulder, gently caressing your skin
A slight sigh escapes your mouth
Clothes shed to the ground
Gathering in the view of beauty of you
Skin touching skin we intertwine into one
Then awakening from my dream
I feel you close to me
Sleeping in a quiet slumber
I snuggle closer pulling you tighter
You wriggle back against me
Drifting off to sleep and back into my dreams and thoughts of you

 

Written for the woman of my dreams and my reality my wife.

Coffee Curfews

~ A Soldier's Walk ~ 3 Comments

Oh morning you come to early
My mind is left a little squirrely
But that first cup of joe
And I know
My mind wakes to find
A level of another kind
Alas, weariness come back again
So I hit that pot of coffee for a win
Perked up and ready to go
All day I’m in the flow
Wonderful caffeine in my veins
My teeth left a little stained
But that time who knew
Of my daily coffee curfew
For another cup if I take
I will surely never sleep, but stay awake

Past

~ A Soldier's Walk ~ Leave a comment

woman-3351794_640_1

Always behind you
Never getting ahead
Reminding you of the things you have done
Your past is never far behind
No matter where you go
As you sleep it permeates your dreams
Turning them into nightmares
Tugging at your mind
Pulling at your soul
Your past never lets you go
Till that day when your future stops
Buried six feet under in a pine made box

Late Nights

Clock strikes midnight

A time most begin to fright

But I alas is the time for me to hit the hay

Staying up late

Is becoming harder to take

When I was a young man I would start my nights late

As I grow older if find it hard to stay awake

Now midafternoon is my time

Not too early and not too late

Of course I try to prevent this fate

I try an afternoon nap

I sleep in late

All to no avail

As summer comes and the sun’s setting becomes delayed

My need to go to sleep will be downplayed

So I guess it’s time to lay me down to sleep

Until my bladder makes we wake

But that’s another story all together

 

Monday

The beginning of a new week

My head aches my body is weak

A weekend of rest and relaxation

Lying in bed until noon

Time with my wife we swoon

Staying up past midnight

Now Monday comes and I have to rise at first light

Crawling out of bed

Sleep still clouds my head

Into the shower I go

Shaving off my beard that has just begun to grow

Putting on my uniform and pulling on my boots

Heading out for another week of work

Somedays the weather is nice, somedays not so much

Monday comes and the only thing I can think of is

When will Friday arrive……

Today

~ A Soldier's Walk ~ 1 Comment

Today I had a good day.

The Sun shown through the cracks in the shutters

A glint light upon my eyes

Awake to the world around,

I feel your presence near to me

Your breath comes so evenly

I move myself closer to you

To feel you awakens my soul

I nestle my body next to yours

You stir for second

Closer we become entwined as one

I see your face and soak it all in

The radiance it shines out does the Sun

I hold you near not wanting to wake

Enjoying the sound of your gentle breath

To wake in your arms is all I desire

To hold my love so close is such joy

My heart full of passion

My soul full of you

Today was a good day before it really happened.

 

This is my first attempt at poetry and I write it out to the love of my life, who has inspired me to become so much more.  Love you Babe…

This is the first poem i really ever wrote. Hope you enjoy my first poem from my blog.

 

Night Songs

Whispers on the night

Passing across the miles

From the song of my heart

To the depths of your soul

Along the pathway to your dreams

I play a tune meant only for you

A lullaby to ease your restless slumber

May you sense when you wake

Of my love so true

Only meant for you

 

Radiance

Laying in our bed you slumber

Looking upon your face I am left stunned

The softness of your skin leaves me hypnotized

Your face shines with a radiance of many suns

I cannot look away from its brilliance

Left dazed and captured in your spell

I listen to the gentle rhythm of your breath

A music sweeter than any song sung

A smile rises upon your lips

Wondering what dream has brought it about

Your eyes slowly open to gaze into mine

I cannot look away, I have been caught

Your smile grows bigger as you say to me

I was dreaming of you

Bed

A place to lay

A place to sleep

A place to snuggle

A place to, well you know what

A place to read

A place to play

A place of solitude

A place of laughing and crying

My Bed is a place I go for so much

Now I just need some comfortable pillows to make it complete

 

Sleep

feet-224680_960_720Nighttime falls into the room

Next to you is what I desire

Pulling you close as our bodies merge together

Your head lies on my chest

I feel your skin soft against mine

The rhythm of your breath is mesmerizing

Sleep over takes our physical bodies

Our souls connect into the dream world we move

Dreams of you is what I see and into my arms you fall

As in the here as in the there we are together

As we sleep through the night.
