Distracted By Memories

Baby, I’ve got a problem I’m distracted by memories of you –  placing kisses on my skin your hands brushing away my hair I can’t focus and I’m at work –  but my body is pulsing, remembering your touch these interruptions are too tempting not to indulge I’ve got to sneak away find a moment alone and see what I can do toContinueContinue reading “Distracted By Memories”

1949 (with audio)

And now for something a little different… My father was born in 1949 He played the drums in his youth He had long hair in his 20s and embraced life as a hippie –  I think having kids destroyed his carefree spirit He was still funny life of the party but our home was full of stress and anxiety Trying always tryingContinueContinue reading “1949 (with audio)”

Replay

Image found here on Pinterest I woke up thinking about you and what we did last night I replayed it in my mind –  the way your skilled fingers moved across my body and my hungry hands reached for you I’m replaying it again from start to finish while my body responds and revels in the moment one more time Happy Valentine’s Day lovers.

Lemon Trees and Marigolds

Image found here Lemon trees and marigolds Browning grass beneath my toes Crayfish in the backyard creek Soaking shoes and muddy cheek Kicking legs on rusting swing Listening to nature sing Cubbies built on vacant land Fortress in earth’s wonderland Drawing on the paperbark Fleeing home before it’s dark Humid nights in hot lounge room Lightning strikes and thunder booms MemoriesContinueContinue reading “Lemon Trees and Marigolds”

Lachlan (with audio)
