Poetry of the DarkChild
Just Because
"Fashion"

An era of beauty..
different styles, colors, designs
cotton, rayon, polyester
silk....the finest of it's kind
Gliding through the scene..
red, blue, emerald green
black, brown, heavenly cream
tall, short, large, lean
Choosing the perfect ensemble
enhancing the physical dominion..
bodacious, sexy, revealing
luscious....truely compelling
Small fortune to compensate..
his heart pounds as he awaits..
knees weakened by your display
Fashion Diva you portray

"Mountain"

Covered in white snow flakes
each crevasse uniquely cut...
sculptured so magnificently
beauty is all I see...
Envious of  your strength
cradled in your hands...
guiding my every step
to a new wonderland...
I breathe...air so fresh
I hear songs' harmony...
there is no other place that
I'd rather be....
Smiling so gently
captivated by your mystique...
in awe...as I sit
the mountain and me....

"Mother Nature"

I sit looking out my window
as her mood calmly changes...
watching the horizon of dancing flames
sweeping over the earths' blanket-transform
Forceful as the wind blows
lifting the leaves of Autumn afloat...
cool she whistles through the air
soothing the sweat from all living things
Down comes her petticoat
dancing gracefully-she smiles...
turning to me...eyes of wonder
to my soul she comforts
A touch of bliss across my lips
brings forth what is missed...
all things embrace her indefinitely
the mother of all natures' identities...

"Day Song"

I wake up...walkout
seeing the trees flow
with winds' breeze
birds flying freely
wondering could that be me...

Gazing beyond earths' blanket
up comes flowers, lilies, daisies...bloom
the final touch of
a warm, delicate room

Her eyes watching...looking at me
gently reaching out to me
come...her harmony sings
fly...heart be free
