Not of this world


Русская Венера  Igor Ostashkov

I was with the world
until this moment
and now that is gone,
the moment, the world
and all its lures and lucre.
I am not of this world
anymore
I know not if there is
another one
waiting to be
discovered.
There is this moment
and there is this me
and that is enough.

Lost in love


***

By Brady jack500.photosight.ru

I am lost
lost in love
in love with life
with life full
full of flesh
of flesh and
flesh and blood
and blood throbbing
throbbing with
rising lust
lust for life.
I am lost
in love with life.

What's going to be future...

***



Eyes gaze out
to the skies
Mind wanders
in the emptiness
Feet find themselves
on
to the sands
of a vast expanse
and I hold
on to the rough
and solid of 
times immemorial

This is the time...

Забытое лето



So happy I am
that even the rough
bark of the tree
reminds me of that warmth
which soared me
into skies unseen
and colours unimagined
and a world beyond breath.
Just to be able to lean
against a strong trunk
so sensuous
unmoving to the world
but moving a world
inside me.

There was a time....

Серия: Стена.
sensey07.photosight.ru

There was a time when
beauty was a burden
to me:
to be carried and cared for,
to be receiving gazes, appreciative
admiring and aggressive too.
Then my body one day
whispered to me:
You are the gift and the gifted,
truth breathed life into your cells
so celebrate and fulfill your destiny.
That was the time.....

Thoughts branching out...

***

That endless babble of the mind
and the ceaseless spinning of thoughts
'I want this and I don't want that....'
Everything branches out of the ME
Everything unreal, illusionary
the only real thing is the body
and its yearnings.

Much to ponder..

Concubine



Much went by
and much gone through.
I know much to yet
come and fill me up
and fly me high.
It all blossoms and
in good time fade too.
But I uncover
layers to reveal
that throbbing life energy
and that is much to
ponder for a life time.

All that lingers...

***

Those soft caresses
in the crevices
and recesses
uttering
the immeasureable
hanging perilously
on the thick breath
between us
of the eternity
and the futility
of holding on
to the transient.
All that should not
but still happens
to linger....

A twist in the ....

body language

After all that I
did -
the blood, the sweat and the toil -
I cannot rest.
Yes, I loved and loved
with all my heart and flesh.
Now I have to hold
my own
delicately poised
on the edge
while the stage has shifted 
from underneath 
my base.

The clouds are a-calling

***

What is this now
that I chose to abandon
the trodden path?
Flowers bloom by 
the wayside 
beckoning me 
to blossom
and the clouds
come a-calling
to invite me
to paint the sky
with colours of 
my unfading dreams.

There are times..

***
bondezire.photosight.ru

You know how it is...
there are times
when 
I can't do a thing
except think of you
and countless gifts
you gave and 
the endless wait
and the nameless 
pain that 
I carry
and then I am 
lost,
it seems, for ever
until the soft breeze
caresses.

In Ample..

Юлия

I was blessed
in my ample proportions
Many are the ways
of beauty
but only one of bounty
and when it comes 
your way
you can only
count 
the blessings.

Riot of colours

Осенняя легкость

Like you the Sun too
moved away
leaving me in the
midst of this
riot of colours
all around;
all colours of
my life bubbling
throbbing
pounding and
panting with joy.
Will you come back?
Sunshine sure
would be there.

In fullness...



Грация

In fullness of time
the ripeness of fruit;
in fitness of things
the softness of feel.
In tautness of flesh
the wellness of limbs and
in freshness of looks
the lightness of life.

The Wall

The wall

It's only fit
that you put me
on an obstacle course.
But remember it's only
a wall that you want me
to scale.
I have scaled  peaks
far higher
like going beyond
myself.
I am strong in my
limbs and loins
to hold far
greater challenges.
