The silvery moon
Waits for heaven to call her
Mystical suitor

Ageless and Timeless My Love Art Thee (Sonnet)
Ageless and timeless my love art thee,
Perfection alive in human form.
Til the day my last breath I do finally breathe,
I vow to protect thee storm.
This promise I made to thee so long ago,
To this day I have ne’er forgotten.
Before God in Heaven on knee I did show,
Thanks for the path I’ve long trodden.
Honor me now to be thine til the end,
I ask with a heart that is true.
My feelings for thee shalt not break nor will bend,
Til death when we bid fond adieu.
Know that each day I cherish this gift, spent with my hand in your hand.
I take not for granted on retribution swift, my love to an island you strand.

We Drive in Silence
We drive in silence
I behind the wheel…focused
Her my passenger
Nothing needs said as we go
We just hold hands and smile
The years have joined us
Love expressed in the wordless
Ever commonplace
It is not that we don’t speak
But that our hearts beat as one
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
Something Gnaws At Me
Something gnaws at me
Shredding the scars of my heart
Left to bleed again
Cleanly cut by razor blades
Love’s left to spill on the floor
Why pain in passion
So much that it breaks the heart
Contradictory
Is not love the greatest joy
As promised from up above
Perhaps I’m fickle
Believing that love is grand
Like in fairytales
If this turns out to be false
Then I am a born victim

Speak To Me (Sonnet)
Speak to me, whisper the tenderest of words
My ears and heart art open to thy love
There is nothing more that needest be heard
This I do vow before God up above
My love, dearest love, thou art more precious than gold
Thy love and life cherished above my own
This I do promise from thy youth to age old
I’ll strive my whole life to have shown
In the stars it was written before time began
Two souls were destined to be one
Our walk through eternity wouldst be hand-in-hand
From dawn until life’s setting sun
I promise to thee my undying love, with God as my witness on high
Sweet and as pure as the snow white dove, committed to thee ‘til I die

Passionate Courtship (Haiku)
Passionate courtship
Two songbirds blinded by love
Windowsill tango

Lover’s Broken Heart
Lover’s broken heart
What thrives in the aftermath
But bitterness…hate
Weeds choke off one’s passion
Leaving nothing but wasteland
In trepidation
Pain foments until putrid
Romance the victim
With trust shattered like blown glass
The wounds bleed until bled out

Heartbeat’s Rhythmic Call (Senryu)
Heartbeat’s rhythmic call
In search of it’s one true love
Defying logic

The Touch Of Your Hand (Tanka)
The touch of your hand
Soft skin on my stubbled cheek
Tells me you love me
I try to speak but I’m mute
Our silence says all we need
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
Driven Wild By Love (Tanka)
Driven wild by love
That time only enhances
Addictive like drugs
I don’t want to be rehabbed
Let me die as a junkie
