You are who I see
When I first open my eyes
My love has arrived

It's not what is said
It's how it's stated;
It's not what you write
It's how it's written;
It's not what's implied
It's what's inferred.

My severed heart cries
Your razor desire cuts
Love pools at my feet

The lives of a man are measure in his dreams.

Monday February 2 A Month Of Love from BJ Neblett
Enjoy. Then click the link on the right to my writer's blog for this week's love story!
Sometimes, dreams come true...
Sometimes, dreams come true...
Maybe it's intuition/
But some things you just don't question/
Like in your eyes I see my future in an instant/
And there it goes I think I found my best friend

The Gift

Once I was a lover
Through youthful eyes I saw
The world a brightly wrapped package
Each dawn Christmas day
My heart I sent before me
Its glow lit my path
The girls who did abide me
I loved them everyone
With poems wise and tender
With songs both sweet and sad
My love boxed gay and brightly
A gift of the pilgrim soul
Many a heart would tarry
Many a breast would sing
Each gentle touch a promise
And every kiss a lie
Each moon would enrapture
Each sun revealed the truth
The package prized and desired
The gift inside ignored
And so my soul did wander
Cold years marked my path
Unopened and unwanted
My gift inside to die
Love’s song but a memory
Heart’s glow a flickering light
Through dimming eyes I saw you
A rose against the snow
My gift all but forgotten
The wrappings torn and brown
You took the love within me
Unquestioned for your own
Thanks. Please be sure to like, link, comment and share the love. You'll find this week's love story by clicking the link to my writer's blog on the right.

I
bought a bouquet
of
tulips yesterday.
They
reminded me of you.
The
farmer’s market
where
I bought them
was
busy with people.
But
the man selling the
tiny
donuts you loved
wasn’t
there.
So
I had a bagel
with
my Sunday paper
at
Starbucks.
I
placed the flowers in a vase
next
to the picture
of
you at the tulip
festival
last year.
It
made me smile.
When
I returned home
from
shopping
I
thought you were here.
But
it was just the scent
of
the flowers.
It
made me dream
of
you again.
The
pillow where
you
lay your head
remained
cold and barren.
I
bought a bouquet
of
tulips yesterday.
They
reminded me of you.
Today
I threw them
in
the trash.

Said Spring To Winter by BJ Neblett
Peace and love for a new year.

Said Spring To Winter
by BJ Neblett

Said Spring to
Winter Said Winter to Spring
In silence we
meet Don’t ask me my name
Specter of my
dreams I am just a man
The future in
your eyes Do not seek tomorrow
Uncertain
but true And it will be
yours
How am I to
know Ask me no questions
What truths
will I find I’ll tell you
no lies
Your
gift to me Take
all I offer
Afraid
to open As long as
it lasts
The longings
inside Don’t question your
heart
Untouched and frozen And love will be ours

Short Story Me: Short Story Me
Poems
If I had kissed you
Tell me what would you have done
Kiss me back or run
Loving you is like walking between raindrops
Specter of my dreams
She comes to me in the night
Love I'll never know
Though we never kissed
Of all my loves come and gone
I miss you the most
Would you hold gently
If I reached to take your hand
Would you understand
