IN LOVE WITH BEAUTYX
Beauty makes a fool of us all
it halts the breath's flow
in a seizure of desire
and that fatal allure
x
It halts the breath's flow
I swoon from so much splendor
and that fatal allure
love and longing find me again....

ASLEEP

Don't wake.
Let me stare at you as you dream...
the bedroom
dark blue at dawn,
the sun still hiding
below the polestar.....

Hi Derrick-

I was just thumbing through the book and took the lazy way out...quoting myself!

Yes, yes, and a thousands yeses to 'Asleep'. Absolutely beautiful and you captured my feelings for my other half when I see her asleep on an autumnal Sunday morning.
Many thanks. Both poems are impressive.
