Writings of love found, love lost, change and found again!

MOONLIGHT AND ROSES

Reflections of moonlight glisten in the dew,

a bed of rose petals scenting the air,

fragrance of love beyond compare,

my senses afire with one gaze from you.

Silvery rays shining in you eyes,

the perfume of roses, a tender kiss,

flesh tingling in total bliss,

feeling of love I cannot disguise.

Misty moonbeams framing my heart,

velvet petals caressing our arms,

softly submitting to your charms,

souls now touching, will never part.

Vision of night lights will never be the same,

rose fragranced memories of bodies entwined,

forevermore will be carried in my mind,

love sweetly burning in our passionate flame.

When next we embrace, the moon will glow,

and rose-scented nights we will see,

in my heart you will always be,

your sweet love will be mine again , I know.

LOVE TEARS

Words whispered in my ear,

holding you close to me.

Your fingers touching mine

softly stroking your arms.

Hands tenderly exploring,

lips carressing your neck.

Mouths seeking untold pleasures,

reaching for sweet desire.

Flesh pressing hard against each other,

finding answers we're looking for.

Moist skin shivering in delight,

anticipation of love to come.

Rising fever of emotions,

becoming one with your body.

Hearts pounding as we peak,

moans escape from my throat.

Love tears glazing my eyes,

breathless sighs of ecstasy.

Gently floating back to earth,

a taste of heaven with you.

FREE TO BE

My time has come,

I know it's true.

I need to be me.

You need to be you.

Years have passed,

I've given my all.

The time is here,

To break through the wall.

There must be more,

To this life I'm living.

Just give my a sign,

I'm so tired of giving.

My eyes have been opened,

My heart is in turmoil.

Time has been wasted,

In days of endless toil.

Breaking away is so hard,

We've grown far apart.

Life is calling me,

It's time for a new start.

Free to be happy.

Free to see

The joy in life.

Just free to be.

CHANGES

Love comes when least expected.

Love leaves the same way.

No longer can it be resurrected.

There is nothing to make me stay.

Time has changed me, that I believe.

Feelings are not the same.

What you are giving, I cannot receive.

But you are not to blame.

A different path I have taken.

I've found someone else you see.

Something inside has begun to awaken.

That someone I've found is - me.

ENCHANTMENT

The first touch, I fell,

fire passed between.

I'm under his spell,

pleasures I've seen.

A sweetness so rare,

it was easy to fall.

None can compare,

down came the wall.

I long for his love,

so gentle and soft,

like a white dove

flying aloft.

In his eyes I find

a feeling so free.

Within my hear and mind

he will always be.

This enchantment will last,

I'm under his powers.

There is no more past,

the future is ours.

MIST OF LOVE

My mind is clouded in a mist of love.

Can it be the truest I've ever known?

It began as an innocent flirtation,

Now my feelings have grown.

Unspoken words I am hearing,

Whispering softly to be wary.

But my heart is fiercely saying,

Go with it, do not tarry.

I've let myself go to the fullest extent,

With all the emotions I can feel.

And if this love slips away,

Will I ever be able to heal?

I want to throw caution to the wind.

What is meant to be will stay.

But if the roadblocks are too strong,

It is my heart that must pay.

Loving arms that make me feel safe,

Encircle another who loves too.

Am I being selfish towant it all?

Only to me, do I want him true.

My heart is full opened,

The seeds of love are sown.

It is blossoming in the mist

And I want it for my own.

I want this feeling to never end.

May it always stay young.

Sweet melodies of love I hear,

A more beautiful song has never been sung.

falling for my present and last husband)

FIRE

The fire in you words

are seared into my mind,

promises of undying love

as our arms are entwined.

I taste the fire on your lips,

as burning kisses seek

secret places of passion

and my body grows weak.

Fire in your eyes,

glowing embers in the night,

looking deeply into them,

I know everything is right.

The heat of your touch

igniting my desire,

hands are exploring,

every nerve is on fire.

A spark is all it took,

for the flame to start

and nothing can extinguish

the fire in my heart.

PAST VISIONS

I've looked upon your face before

and held you so close to me.

The waves are breaking below on shore,

as I await your return from the sea.

Bound to another against my will,

but my love for you did not wane.

My life then was a bitter pill

and death came between us again.

Kept apart in our lives that have past,

by forces beyond our reach.

Preparing for a future that will last,

mistakes made are the lessons that teach.

Centuries of love have carried through,

now is our time to be one.

To you, my soul will always be true,

this life's journey has just begun.

HEART SONG

The music within me is gentle, but clear.

Hold me close and the melody you will hear.

With every whisper of you sweet voice,

My heart keeps beat to songs of rejoice.

Each note heard is played with great zeal,

As our bodies dance to the rhythm we feel.

Sweet melodies of love are sounds I hold dear,

A symphony of beauty whenever you are near.

(3-94 by Sherry "Rhodes" Roth)

FOUND AGAIN

This road of life has been travelled many times before.

Always searching for my heart's love-the one I adore.

Before we met I knew something was amiss.

My life was not very full, I was deep in an abyss.

Our paths, at last finally once again crossed.

Thank the gods, I am no longer lost.

Happiness is with me because of you.

Life has become wonderful, fresh and new.

My love for you is so very deep.

And to you alone will I always keep.

Meant to be together for all time.

I am your's and you are mine.

(6-26-97 by Sherry Roth-for my husband Brad)

THE LOVE OF MY LIFE

You are my love, you are my life.

I can be no other man's wife.

The love you gave was needed and craved,

Now, from me you need to be saved.

If you no longer want or wish me to stay,

Then we must part and go on our way.

The someone you wanted I thought was me,

Your happiness is what I would rather see.

My life has been richer because of you,

I hope you feel that yours was too.

Should our lives come to be apart,

Please remember me in your heart.

I will love you forever, there is no end.

I wish you joy, my love...my friend.

The poetry on this page was written while I was going through the decisions of a divorce, an in-between infatuation and finally finding my true love-the one who shared my past lives. Feel free to use this poetry as you see fit as long as my name is kept on each one and they are not claimed as your own. I would appreciate any feedback on my writings. Thank you.
