Intimate Moments
Little kisses
scatter
over skin
in light brushes
that tingle
and sometimes
sting
as you awaken
sensations
gone quiet
until
warm breath
and soft touches
slowly
drive sanity
far away

Gideon’s Challenge
Perfection
Time is precious
and sweet
when spent
by your side
even
in times
when the cold air
whips around
and sharp little
snowflakes
sting against
the skin
because with you
everything
is perfect

Little Slivers
For a moment
I am left
fascinated
as snowflakes
turn to
little slivers
of ice
that gather
together
into powder
and coat
the world
one minuscule
bit and piece
at a time

Gideon’s Challenge
Meditative Moment
Chaos breeds
the need for stillness
and a moment
to catch the breath
as cool air
brushes senses
and muscles ease
and the silence
works
as a balm
to leave behind
the stress
and chaos
of all
you stepped
away from

Weekly Creativity Prompt – The Reaper’s Greeting
Prompt: Pull (at least) three cards and use them to formulate a response to… “You’re early”, said the Grim Reaper, with a hint of surprise.
“Hey, man, lighten up!”, I say with a laugh and a shrug. “Sometimes we all have to just go with the flow.” (Naiad)
“I had every intention of taking my time coming to meet up with you, as there was still plenty for me to deal with back there on the other side, and yet? It was taken out of my hands.” (The Devil)
“You could always send me back.” (The Magician)
DECK USED: THE POWER OF OLYMPUS TAROT

In the Moment
Neither sky
nor sea
is endless
no matter
how far it feels
and like
all experiences
and life itself
there is an end
to each
moment
and every thing
so cherish the
breathtaking
moments
as they come
