So very English and I Love You
Manners bound by tenderness
Knowing
bound by wisdom
A gentility of gentleness
And the kindest laughter of a
sage.
A sincere broad face supporting a long slow smile
Like butter melting
into warm toast
All framed in soft ebony curls
Wild with
learnedness
You inspire every curve of my mind.
You’re whole being encouraging and overflowing with comfort
Your hands
so steady, safe, sure and guiding
Your body so strong and so
intensively tranquil
You nourish my seeking body so intimately
peaceful
You hush my soul.
We share the most boundless and beautiful unity
Fused together by
history
Untouchably deep, lovingly complete
Enchanting eyes afire with
dancing ness
Englishman I LOVE YOU.

Husbandy
I am the sea gently rising and falling
Raging and passionate
Ebbing
and flowing
You are my rock.
I am the clouds floating and flying
Blowing and drifting
Pondering
and ever changing
You are my blue sky.
I am the trees flourishing and blooming
Budding and bearing
Dying and
rebirthing
You are my earth.
I am the moon naked and dancing
Loving and feminine
Spiritual and
peaceful
You are my sun.
You are my rock
You are my blue sky
You are my earth
You are my
sun.
The love I feel for you is all powerful.
My husband
My body sleeps into his every arc
And when awake my skin melts deeply
into his
I am held like a new mother holds her first borne
Reassuringly
cradled if ever I should stir.
For the first time since none, I have a
waist
A waist which is a part and at times all of me.
His absolute being
is how I want him most
When his spirit is strong and sure, like a
Maori
When his touch is precious and warm like honey to a gentle
bee
When every day I feel as coy as a child
Excited, enthusiastic, eager
and new
When every eve I feel like a golden woman
Radiant, endlessly
shinning, burning bright, brilliance

Priory Heaven
Silhouettes of the dusk.
Reminding us of the moon deer
And the magic
dust.
The north star and
The magic horses.
Whose unicorn horns did
not appear
When we were near.
Just a twinkle in their eye.
A fairy in
the sky
Kissing rabbits
I’m a believer.
