Wordless Conversation Poem-lets

I have held an ocean stirred
in the absence of mere word
and I have melted in the wile
of your suggestive, faint half-smile

***

When Mother starts to look at you
You feel a presence in your pew
As suddenly you catch my stare
And quickly bow your head in prayer

***

He sets his mug down
And looks up
His wife pours
Another cup
Not in compulsion
Or stiff duty
But in the pleasure
Of love's simple beauty 

***

From across the room
Our eyes meet
And only heaven
Can compete
With the blissful
Thought we share
As love and longing
Keen the air

***

His smirk
Sparked her ire
And she saw red
He’s got
The couch now
And she’s got the bed

***
