Kisses and Hugs
by Tim Kavi
my kisses
are not
so freely given
just to you
my dear sweet friend
they are like whispers
in windy visits
to your window
in the moonlit night
carried beyond the wind
happy feet like children
smile and laugh
and run to your door
you answer
and my hugs greet you
kisses and hugs
light the once
darkened night
and there is hope
love
and the telling of tales
as the children
of our love
have all gone to bed.

Cat Woman (Poem)
Cat Woman
by Tim Kavi
you wear love
like a fancy hat
purring in the warm sun
like a grinning cat
I stroke your fine sheen
while you stretch
and love me with eyes
that gleam
and when I awoke
I saw your catlike ways
carried in the candle's smoke
your meows spoke
they're still all there
even though
your catness
was in my dream !

At a Moroccan Wedding
by Tim Kavi
happy couples
inspire us all
to seize love
face love
in it be tall
and when moments
like this
reward that search
we know
we have loved
powerfully
strongly
and made history
so made brave
by our love
we confidently
face life
together as
husband and wife !

Forwards and Backwards (New Poem)
Forwards and Backwards
by Tim Kavi
backwards
juxtaposition
you leaned against me
in all of time
and space
in you
your history's
dialectics
progressed with
all grace
until beholding
you
I was the strong
one then
as your destiny
blew you
in the wind
until setting
the bonds free
I was the song
after some
setting sun
today
forwards
you sung it
to me
and we
enjoyed our love
again
for across
time it is here
there
and where
we have ever when
forwards
and backwards
backwards
and forwards
in singing
and laughing
and guiding
each other
it is where
our love has
always been.

In Your Love (New Poem)
"In Your Love"
by Tim Kavi
there is a mighty grace
redemption for a fallen
beaten down man
that fell on his face
in your love
there is a kind word
sweet kiss
and cupcakes too
listener who always heard
in your love
there is a road
a lane
a path to
forgiveness
that leads to your
heart
coaxing goad
in your love
there is a light
that never goes out
there is a blindness
that receives sight
in your love
there is a sweet caress
there is a lasting smile
goddess in a dress
in your love
there is a place
a Universe
an ocean
an oasis
in your undying grace
in your love
in your love
are all the pontifications
sayings singings
chantings
prophetic words
bells ringings
from all the poets
in your love
in your love
is the glorious uprisings
pleasant kindnesses
in bed surprisings
of the unveiled
goddesses
from all the singers
in your love
in your love
are all the colors
landscapes
fruited bowls
and grapes
from all the painters
in your love
in your love
is everyone's best and everything
that is pleasant and good
that you eat daily
and know you should
from all the cooks
in your love
You outshine them all
everything and everyone
great and good
in your love
this lucky love
of yours is made glad
and happy
every day
in your love.

Without You (New Poem)
without you
by tim kavi
midnight
of love song's
vanished
moonlight
a certain death
stood
on the stairwell
in the mist
hoping for destiny's kiss
death was troubled
and waiting
while we
were seeking
earnestly
the new morning
of promise
then
when
I awoke
I realized
it was a dream
illusion
Maya
for you were there
with me
all the time
your voice spoke
I love you
and we laughed
and laughed
captivity's dream
in the land of Zion
was forgotten
in the newness of
Our reborn love.
