Dennis Cardiff: Poems and Prose

Black Lace and Lavender

sunset

 

fly with me,
cry with me,
black lace and lavender.
hold me, enfold me,
long into the night

lay with me,
play with me,
rivers to oceans,
cedars and saplings,
such sweet summer sweat.

astound me,
surround me,
astonish me ever,
sweetest surrender,
for now and forever.

take of me,
taste of me,
succulent sorceress,
drown me with kisses
’till dawn’s early light.

      Hi Raili,
      thank you so much for your work in mental health. I agree, “The privilege of working with some of the most disenfranchised people in our community was humbling, enriching, challenging. I learnt so much about life, the universe, and everything.”

      Hi Chris,thanks for your kind words. It’s great to hear from you again. I’d love to be in Vancouver to get away from this cold.

      Hugs, Dennis
