I hope you enjoy April's work. Many times I read her poetry and am inspired to write. I think good poetry has that intrinsic ability to inspire.
Enjoy!!!
Beyond the Flesh
A Poem By April Higney
Sometimes she slips out beyond her flesh,
a soul, travelling upon lands never seen,
drifting along currents, pulled by the moon,
across the rocky earth, fields swaying green.
An astral projection,
to watch the Vortex up high,
along a plateau,
between red sands and the changing magnetic sky.
Swirling with the dust,
that plays along the wind over the ground,
whistling, musical breezes,
her soul has found.
Another soul drifts near,
love within the mind,
passions merge, without fear,
crossing a bridge without looking behind.
Emotions sing along the skin of her soul,
as he makes love to her heart,
embracing the touch in every view,
as though refreshing the paint upon an old piece of art.
His lips, the taste of berries,
or portions of life held sweet.
She slips back into her flesh,

Lovers Beneath The Moon
I laid
beneath the pines
inhaled woodsy scents
watching the moon
catch the edge of our tomorrows
***
You laid
sand crackled under our skin
listening as the waves crashed
watching the moon
play hide and seek
***
I laid
caressed by the dawn
heard things you had done
watching the moon
dance in your eyes
***
You laid
heard the whisper
of your long ago lover
watching the moon
glance upon emptiness

So a question to make you writers ponder - What theme / genre do you feel most comfortable writing?
