My Relationship Bellwether: Romantic ConTEXTing Poetry

My relationship bellwhether/
is still she/
who would have/
given me/
the passion, desire,/
inspired fire,/
and ecstasy/
I craved/
so many years ago./
She would have saved/
me from the hurt/
of the search,/
but I said no.

Now I wander on the path I take,/
and wonder if I made a mistake.

Relationship Roll Call: Romantic Blogging Poem

What do Michelle, Anne, T, Erin, Wendy, Maryanne, Jill, Carole, Yvonne,
etc. etc. etc
have in common?
They are all women who
I was crushin’ on
or tried to woo.
They all said no,
they wanted to go slow,
with no committment,
and so off they went.
I could be a friend,
but that’s where it’d end.
And soon afterwards,
I heard
they were happy,
and their days were spent,
in fantastic, long-term committments.

Look for Beth, Gayla, Deb, Holly, Azura, Diane,
to soon join that happy,
long-term committed clan,
without me.
Evidently,
my passion is introductory
and eye-opening of what can be.

Repressed Feelings Flooding: Romantic Email Poem

Your feelings,
Repressed,
Will one day well up,
And flood over you
Like a wave.
And you will go with it,
Flow with it,
And be surprised
That you can survive
And relish
And embrace those passions.
The way you didn't know you could
Open
And embrace
And enjoy
What you had never before
felt.
But you did.
And you will.

Why Get A Room?: Romantic Improv Email Sonnet

The purpose
of ignoring housekeeping
is not passion,
but gentle sleeping.

If we’re not together curled,
in gentle slumber entwined,
then we should be at some cafe’,
getting wined and dined.

Or if Mother Nature
is what you like,
we should be out
taking a hike.

To check into a room and awake alone
is not what I want. I’ll just stay home.

It wasn’t.
