No Road
~~~~~~~~~~~ 

Two a.m. the crickets sing
nightbirds are on wing,
I cannot sleep I find
cannot keep darkness from my mind.

There is no road to choose
it's time and I must lose,
I cannot hold you here,
cannot smile but must I fear.

Warm sunlight brings the will
unhappiness I still,
I wait, my being shivers
for your touch my body quivers.

Eager, I open the door
tenderly held once more,
I hungrily seek your lips
of passion to sorrowfully sip

for the last time. ©

The Last Lesson
~~~~~~~~~~~

With understanding,
the girl you taught,
the joy of sharing.
With feathering touch,
lonely heart you brought
to world of caring.

With gentle breath,
the spark you nurtured
to consuming flame,
with tender arms,
the girl you sucourred,
passions un-named.

One lesson still,
to take from thee,
will you teach again?
How does she keep
precious memories,
but silence pain? © rac
