much peace and blessings to the artist
surfed upon this asian art image that captured my eye
searched image origins
beautiful heartfelt tearful fear
difficult drawing so much pain there
storm clouds stirring
relentlessly tarrying
end
at the perilous paw
the rock so dearly clear

to you, peace and love j
luminous lights
omnipotent opulence
vast virtuous victories
ethereal epiphanies
immense immaculate imagination
trillion transparent tributes
rewarding relations
abundant appreciations
effectual experiences
lavish liveliness
brilliant endeavors
there is nothing so stifling
hand no release of pleasure
brimmed and still surging
than these precious pearls of pressure
beading the moments edge
laced fragments of events
woven and bejeweled
warmhearted
hold hope to treasure
string along win
cold enchantment fastened
tingling the skin
somewhere between dread and day dream
soaring entirely above seconds
ascend courageously and giving to expire
rising to cocoon again
weighted like the seafloor
then splendor
wisdom
iridescent consequence
dependent on perspective and purity
observations of virtuosity
peaceful passions
awaiting
to know the words
escape from authentic connections
and ease contorting tensions

golden gleaming gourd ©jnbarber, revised 2013
golden gleaming gourd
the gracious galaxy
from the gritty ghetto
shines amazing lights
the great gleaming gourd
pours out grandma’s gumbo
may i taste
from your distant
scrumptious sky
the ethereal silver spoon
makes my heart rich
with dynamic day dreams
of springtime memories
going outside for precious play
from the sprinklers to the streets
water falls under you
and love shines above me
the days dazzle from beaded beams
tangled jungle branches shade us
pure emotional possession
not physical obsession
laughter shakes solid structures
eye to eye passions held mirrored
without red floor regret
pure and good
innocent erotic
summer sessions
let love be
like us
naïve and nice
once again
we escape the watching world
behind indulgent doors
express timid ecstasy
tingling temptations
rapid ravenous rapture
love push past lust and
hands pull
grasp
envelope
entangle
and
send sanctified chocolate
cruising sweetly
out of this world
out of control
stop
intentions
mediated preventions
wild hair and glare
but never crushing the rose
I desire to be your everything
and anything
let me place my hands upon you
please
free me from this
nervous twitching
and crazy sinking
let us start without end
bumping
listening to West Montgomery
and bending
beyond belief
as we grope and grind
seems like love
without the demise
around the globe
not the world
ghetto love
sure feels fine
watered tree trunk

with camera in hand.

i see the most amazing scenery.
thank God!

i lost my bag
my bag
my bag
i’m fearful, then sad
so sad
it is bad
i run to the roof top
time please stop
heavenly projection
i question
why why why
who is to blame
i’m standing in the rain
never given a chance
i had no choice
i must accept the shame
that comes with blame
i have an incompetent brain
someone took my voice
all my poetry is gone
no song
that is wrong
the search is long
this is a stellar quest
i must do my best
and not worry about the rest
those difficult lines
are a competent mind’s find
shine
shine
shine
immortal kind

i remember
as the one that was before
sometimes i can see, hear and sense
until the pain sets in
and the wall of numbness
goes up
between hopes and horrors
life and love recedes away from me
as pain and panic flow
the lock and key
holds no security
my privacy
possessions
memory
and knowledge
are taken away
by the mean spirits
path
Memory
blossoming blessings that sway sanity to sanctuary
showers stream down floating on bellowing breezes
teases temptations that yearn for romantic releases
fantasies and flirtations memories in mind played off reel and ceases
tranquilly transformed by His touch gratitude to God for grace and glory

destiny
by j. barber @2004
cradle my soul
make me whole
love away the pain
before I go insane
bring forth your gifts of life
don’t speak of strife
bring forth your rose pedals
for thorns I won’t settle
true love cannot be forsaken
it’s not just given and taken
love is to the bone
it is not simply shown
the hands of time
will never
sever
like sweet dew early morning
you will forever be yearning
to touch, caress and feel
what no other can make real
passion of the ages
that permeates metaphysical stages
heaven on earth
love is rebirth
seal my fate
soul mate

i long
to hold you
for an eternity
in unwavering arms
that embody home
as the shores
beckon the waters
and the sands slip into the seas
i long to hold you
so close
to my heart
that at the start we bend to accommodate
tickling whims
more than friends
through simple and complex dividends
how can i need
your intangible caress
miss
your unseen presence
you exist only in my mind
behind
broken fences
and cobwebs
i hold tight to our
projected picture of perfection
my heart feels
as if it will
explode or erode
before our eyes meet
although i am weak
i seek
with sore feet
the hands that understand my shape
when will we feel the touch
listen to those three words
manifest the thought
complete us lovingly
