One of my love poems below, with my line featured on the edible poetry flowers.
Dancing Waves
my love and partner dialing oldies, WW2 era tunes
on his cell speaker,
rouses my craving to dance with him,
lightheartedly, clasping one another, we venture a spin,
giggling and chuckling at our fumbled attempt
before long, we`re escaping to Second Beach,
to revel in blazing sun and balmy breezes,
beyond the cusp of September,
drifting in the ocean`s undulations, tide jumping in seaweed,
crisp, briny waters refreshing our souls

3 Poems published in Clockwork Universe catalog 2013 - available at www.ava-artists.org
A Steampunk Universe
the future is past, rising from the ruins,
cities broken, into the alternate universe,
apocalyptic, in cobbled lace and golden gears
gas lamps and steam engines, the robot girls, dance
a cabaret of war toys,
the universe, shattered copyright Eva Waldauf - March 14, 2013

The Morning is Full (for Larry)
the morning is full of you, I've waited too long for this,
your lips and smile I keep thinking it won't last,
caress me lightly, you're just too good to me,
I'm waiting for more, it can't go on,
you don't disappoint but somehow we do
the simple pleasure our differences
of breakfast together, just flavour our life together,
coffee and blueberry pancakes, amber honey and mangoes.
is heaven my love, the morning is full of you
