Wildness
Is a place in the heart
And with her mane untamed
Passionate
Like the thunder of horses running free
She will always be
A wild woman
To me
Beauty
Is a place in the mind
And with her smile reclaimed
Sensual
Like the moods of the waves on the sea
She will always be
A rare beauty
To me
Freedom
Is a place in the soul
And with her muse unchained
Creative
Like the dance of the breeze
She will always be
A free spirit
To me
Forever
Is a place in the now
And with her gift unnamed
Shining
Like the dew in the sun on the leaves
She will always be
Wild and beautiful
And free

Icarus: Favourite Love Poems
This creative collection, now in its 2nd edition, brings together love poems by Wayne Visser. The anthology traces love’s agony (“Broken Dreams”) and ecstasy (“Galaxies Cart-Wheeling”), from first blush (“Almost Strangers”) to full bloom (“Say ‘I Do!’”), as we fly to love. You’ve given me the gift of golden wings / The endless sphere of blue imaginings / The chance to rise above the silver clouds / The will to cast off untold ghostly shrouds / Don’t fly too high / Don’t rise too fast / Don’t tease the sky / Don’t taunt the past / You’ve given me the hope of warmer days / The blessed kiss of the sun’s fiery rays.
