Candy

​You’re the reason for the smile that is permanently sitting upon my face 

When I’m with you my arm is always reserved, so you can take pride of place

 When we walk these streets

 I care not for my  own style and grace

Whenever our eyes meet,when we touch base

I know it’s all worthwhile

See my smile

 I think to myself, you’re my arm candy

 My cotton candy 

 My candy coloured crush

You’re my favourite sugar rush

 I never need a bag of pick n mix with you 

You are always sweet enough

Ode to poets

I read your poetry with awe
Wanting to read ever more
It warms my heart and makes me think
Never sends me to the drink
Your laid back style
Makes me smile
Your words and thought
So carefully wrought
Can be very deep
Make connections leap
The rhythm and the tempos time
Pull one from line to line
The pictures painted sometimes stun
But that means dear poet you have won.

Attracted to your light

I am attracted to your light
Like a moth to a flame
A shining beacon held tight
That I cant penetrate

I feel your spirit near me
So tantalising close
I let my essence flow free
So we can mingle the most

As we dance the air dreamy
Our essence entwined
We share so deeply
It cant be defined

Our bodies are longing
Our souls find a way
To bridge times crossing
For our minds to hold sway

Without ever touching 
I find myself drawn
To the lure of clutching
Though it has no tangible form

Though you will never be mine
In a tangible way
My heart is a shrine
Where you can stay

I am attracted to your light

Mysterious mirage

What is it about my concerns
My thoughts moving  around like terns
Charging throughout my bloodstream 
Generating a soft sensuous dream
Potent visions so close, surreal
Grinning huge, I can almost feel
The mysterious mirage of you
Experiencing near total view
Of what it will feel to truly be
With you right here next to me
What is it about my concerns

Knowing my visions are more yearns

Still enjoying the mysterious mirage of you

Who knows what might come true

Life

.
I love to escape into my mind,
my sanctuary of fantasies and visions
of all kinds,
so surreal these can be,
reach out, touch and you will see.

Something has unlocked my mind,
the key taken years to find,
opening the doors to rooms inside,
where in each a story hides.

Viewing the life choices made and yet to make,
New skills to learn new paths to create
before me paths lain to tease,
which way does my journey lead?

Looking at the world anew,
Counting blessings many not few
I view the options try the paths
Grab hold of life with pizazz.

Analyse me

I have a very serious side
I wear my dignity with pride
The trouble is its hard to hide
The frivolous me that lurks inside
Outside a lady calm and serene
Inside a girl who would like to dream
The trouble is its hard to hide
The sexy me that lurks inside
I like to play lots of games
Some that may take using brains
The trouble is its hard to hide
The scatty me that hides inside
I like to analyse my life
It helps to keep me out of strife
The trouble is its hard to hide
The impetuous me that hides inside

Who knows what the whole, maybe
Tis certain it isn’t me.

Playing a word game on line and getting hit on.

​The idea for Converging Lives came from some of the conversations, I have had with people when playing a word game on the net. I still play that game and it never ceases to amaze me the people who use it as a dating….chat up….stalking site, sex meet site. Sometimes one can get an intention of the new player by their thumbnail picture like full on genitals or a model pose but others may not have a picture of themselves but of their favourite football club mascot or a general scene. I know that lots of women have stopped using thumbnail pictures of themselves to try to avoid being hit on. It’s also sometimes revealing to look at the player statics playing 1200 days won 24 games, lost 25, resigned 12 now that isn’t many games in that amount of time, maybe that person doesn’t have the time to play often, or maybe they are just using the game as a chat up vehicle. Always interesting to see. The game has a chat function and I am not adverse to chatting to people as I play and usually say Hi at the beginning of a game even if that is the sum total of the conversation for the duration of the game. 
I did not grow up with Tinder or with selfies being the norm and I get somewhat miffed with people who hit on me sexually, without bothering to find out whether I might be up for sexy chat or an intimate meet. Or in fact anything about me at all. It’s not that I can’t deal with the issue I sure can. It just seems so discourteous to assume that a randomly generated female playing partner (who is playing a word game), would be up for sex chat, or a meet for casual sex and not to have the manners to at least do a little chat to find out if the woman is interested. 
So what do others make of this situation? 
I hasten to say that I know that there are lots of women who play the game who are happy to sex chat and women predators on the site and that is their choice. 
It’s just the notion of straight in with the chat that just so annoys me. 
I have included a conversation that happened to me recently for your amusement.
His name sums it up I Think!

Does anybody have a take on this? 

Walk by the sea

​Aromatic plants remind me of the scent of you

As I close my eyes,  imprinted with your image,  true

I hold back a sob, as your loss cuts me deep

I seem to miss you badly, waking or asleep

As I walk by the sea, and breathe the air, ladened with brine

I replay our first encounter, in this mind of mine

The warmth of the sun, portrays the feelings of joy

As I dip into my memories, of my time with you boy

The sea breeze is setting in, bringing goosebumps to my skin

As I relive our passion, a time without sin

The sound of the waves,like huge rolling sighs

Conjures the picture of the depth of your lies

The feel of the shells crushed under my feet 

The pinpoints of discomfort, prick  my feelings of defeat

The vista to the horizon, with the setting sun plunging into the sea

Reminds me it’s time to set myself free.
