Lunch Time Space Occupancy: Romantic Email Sonnet

“Can I join you for lunch?”
It’s not really a request
To find something to munch.
Instead, something I like best:

Space Occupancy with you.
That’s what “Can I join?” means.
It’s not eating that I want to do.
It’s seeing you live, not just in dreams.

It’s occupying nearly the same space
As you are operating in.
It’s being in the same place
At the same time that makes me grin.

“Can I join you for lunch” is not an invitation to eat.
It’s a request to be near you, beside you, that makes me complete.

Light My Heart Before Thursday: Romantic Email Sonnet

I would love to ride on tracks
and walk through the city with you.
I wonder if we’d hear the sax
notes bend from out of view.

I wish
I could be in your space
and would list
to see your bright face

sooner than Thursday
if there was a way.
I could help you do
and see the good work through.

Or we could walk and see the lights.
And my heart would be lit. That would be alright.

Great Space For Whisper: Revolutionary ConTEXTing Haiku

If I Were at Your Place: Romantic ConTEXTing Limerick

If I were over at your place,/
I’d reach over and caress your face./
But I’m not,/
so I thought/
I’ll send you my feelings through space.
