Candy Fantasy

The Living Poetry February visual prompt

I wish I could catch the sweet zest
from their first release
to the lasting after effect

with a vision to invent a Viagra
for my taste buds

Birds and You

I love the quiet
But I prefer birds sing
I am tired of listening to people

Someone is so full of life
It is what my heart desires
How satisfying
A life filled with birds singing
And you

with her past no more
because dwelling on
what was once before
is a complete waste of life.

She only wants to leave
ample trace of
joy and healing.
