Spring Passion
©1999 Michael David Coffey

Spring divine, yellow daisies, blossoms mauve, pink gladioli
And you in silver star lights, blue heavenly drapes - sapphire eyes
Seductive wisteria - the sunrise in your silken hair

Antithesis
©1999 Michael David Coffey

And of Asia and Africa, enchantment your enticement
Dark amber, sultry, silently soft, serene deliverance
The intimacy of contrasts, in passion's antithesis

A Mother's Dream
©1999 Michael David Coffey

Precious earth, a mother's undying love, a child in a cradle
In the birth of the earth, earthen dreams in hues of brown and black
Life's geometry, the esential quintessence, mother and child

Fragrant Kiss
©1999 Michael David Coffey

In a passage of mist delivered most divinely
Your fragrant kiss upon my breast, lightly, seduced me
And I floated away, dreaming, on a passionate cloud

Birdcage
©1999 Michael David Coffey

Dangling, elegant dismay, beneath the bougainvillea
A birdcage, steel bars, beneath the bower, swaying enticingly
As if to say, sojourn here, within, escape the dying day

Autumn Leaves
©1999 Michael David Coffey

Fluttering leaves, falling, in the Autumn fog - yellow, brown, orange
Caught, the ebb and flow, life's predicament, in a whirlwind
Suddenly scattered, blown away in life's ephemeral play

Autumn's Caress
©1999 Michael David Coffey

Sweet princess of the Autumn night, perfection's golden harvest
Grapevines coiling, deep purple pearls, caress your sensuous lips
Beckoning my silent caress, alone, for your satin dream

Winter's Majesty
©1999 Michael David Coffey

Crystal diadem purity, snow clarity - ruby lips
Blue beauty in carmine, your ermine collared velvet cloak
Your raven black hair, blowing, in winter's floral ice orchard
