Writings of a Mr.
Introducing writings of a Mr (otherwise known as Alex)
I don’t think you will see much of his writing on my Blog
but maybe just maybe once in a while I will share more of his beautiful poetry with you.
Thank you Alex for allowing me to share this with the ‘world’.
This is my anniversary poem.
Close to me
In my arms,
I hold you close to me
I’ll hold you close,
For all eternity
Since our first moment
We were meant to be
Our love keeps growing,
I feel the energy
And with my hands,
I hold you close to me
I build a home for our family
I hold your face
I stroke your hair
I look into your eyes and gaze
I touch you
Gently
Underneath my fingertips
I feel you shiver
Your body speaks to me
Through my hands
My hands that are yours
And hold yours
Close to me for all eternity
In my eyes
No beauty can come close
To yours
My breath is heavy
Your eyes
They pierce
They’ve captured me
The willing slave of love
I pull you close
Look into the richness that you are
With all that I am
Eyes only for you
In my arms I hold you close to me
It’s where you’re meant to be
I pull you closer
A sweet surrender to my senses
Your skin smells of a flowering shower
Covering me,
Empowering me
You seduce me.
Like a current running through me
The surge feels so right
I’ll hold you tight
Tonight
I taste you
And linger while I do,
I do
Forever I will
Linger with you
Skin on skin.
Look at all that we’ve been through,
Me and you,
You and I
Us
I cannot say enough,
Of how we’ve made what’s tough
So easy,
Breezy
Me and you,
And you,
In my arms,
I hold you close to me,
On our Anniversary
And this I vow,
To you my wife,
To be your rock,
For the rest of our life
I’ll hold you close
I’ll take good care
I’ll always want
To stroke your hair.
Alex making me a sparkler heart at the cottage, we met on Canada Day, fireworks from the beginning!

In between, places yet unseen
Have you ever felt in between?
Excited to be places yet unseen?
Embarking on a new or scary venture?
But knowing that it’s right?
That is how I have been feeling today.
Take courage my friends and trust in yourself and your intuition.
In honor of National poetry month, here is my one and only poem.
This was written during a time of pondering faith and science in Feb. 2009
In between
Heaven, earth
Creator, creation
faith, manipulation
joy, exasperation
Belief, trust
hardened crust
They’ve seen the light
about to take flight
to places unseen,
somewhere in between
Bipedalism, microorganisms
evolution, pollution
surreal, secular appeal
be like me, trinity
cross symbolism
fleshly heroism
Glorified Gods
isolated pods.
They’ve seen the light
about to take flight
to places never seen,
somewhere in between.
Knowledge
realities foliage
“I think that was a poem, either way I love words.“
BLOG
Today I find myself reading other peoples Blogs and trying to navigate my way around my own Blog attempting to figure out how this all works. I am not very technologically inclined so I find this phase rather frustrating and distracting.
I have a love/hate relationship with technology and social media. Technology is changing the way we communicate, operate, think and socialize. It is also changing our priorities (ex. my spending the day figuring out how to navigate this Blog and worrying about whether or not it is aesthetically appealing rather than focusing my attentions to writing)
But I have been heard saying that I like to equate a depth of knowledge with a depth of over all character. People that are willing to invest time to read and research seem to be the same people that take time for all of the things around them with an understanding that we can’t be in all places at once but to be present in the places that we are at.
So, I learn to Blog.
“I am a ‘Wordy’ (word junky) and the word BLOG is so, well, for lack of a better word, blah.”
And so it begins…
So, today I decided to start a Blog, not unlike it seems, the entire free world.
After searching the internet far and wide, researching for tips from the pro’s on how to set up a Blog, how to successfully write a Blog, how often to write in your Blog, I discovered one major theme across them all. Have a specific direction or idea. Have a topic or a purpose.
They say don’t write about your love of birds, write about a specific bird but you see, I don’t have a bird, most definitely not a specific bird. I know a little but not a lot about all of the animal kingdom and I also find all of it equally fascinating and worth expressing thoughts and opinions about.
So let’s get to specifics, boiling it down to a theme, this was a problem. Yes, I say was because I found the common theme, my bird, my love of writing.
Where to begin? What to do with this passion of mine for writing? I want to share my current directionless journey, right from the beginning, through a Blog on how I attempt to share my thoughts and ideas with the world through writing.
So I will Blog about my journey towards becoming a published, read author/writer/blogger, while sharing my self, my musings, thoughts, books and papers with you along the way.
Hopefully together we can walk away from this journey enlightened and successful or in the very least, better acquainted.
