Raise a toast
Majestic friends
Beautiful strangers
At land's end
Float freely
Sail your course
Sending care
Light, flags, morse
How to tell
Land loving one
Radio silence
Air waves none
Hand me nothing
On silver platters
Cosy toes friends
Nothing else matters
Sometime a certain
Happenstance lingers
Peels off layers
Slips through fingers
Dignity to watch
Unravelling reveal
More willing heart
A moment to steal
My darling, my dear
Do you see what just appeared
You would love the very sight of this
If only you were here
Beautiful, lovely one
How nice this time of year
I'm staring out the window
Waiting for the sky to clear
Wonderful, my only love
The fire burns bright here
I've stocked us up for winter
Our warmth, food and beer
Sweet thing, come near
There's not much else to do
But sit and sing a song
And walk a mile or two with you
Every word hangs heavy in the air
Each a dew drop from pure source
Wind blown in from afar
Whispering on the water
Trickling down the shore
Breeze holds back waves
Always moving forward
Air and sea and shore
All holding on
To one another
Through the storm
How lovely when
You bend my will
And I yours
Hold us still
Space that separates
Grows smaller
But no less
Beautiful
One can only
Hold the weight
Of one's own
But once we meet
Shelter surrounds
Us all
We grow into
The in between
For the weight of days
When you don't believe
Love's melodies
Dig up memories
Remind yourself
That we existed
For a time
Just like the movies
From wake to dream
Every thought captured
In a time capsule
To treasure unseen
Restore hope
For decades
Time well spent
Wandering aimlessly
Talking shamelessly
To the clear blue sky
At passersby
Whispering hello
And goodnight
Only one
Immortalised
With love
Strange how the music
Can say what lies inside
Better than own lips
Better still, silence
Reveals a sonnet
Of secrets
That moment between words
When the body speaks
To affirm or contradict
Knowing moves
Of safety
Alone with thoughts
On the edge of wild
Never live lonely
Affect writes thesis
Of sanity
Wondering brain waves
Sing on wind and wire
Telegraph of love
Words no limit
Of sound
Don't Stop.
Fingers curl
Firm and fine
Tender and strong
Curiously hide
Brushing away
Wounds of yesterday
Laughing reciting
Memories opening
Adventures in love
Happening upon
Fragrant finds
Drinking in senses
Rarities afew
Treasures abound
Waiting minute more
With you
Life clings to cracks
Liminal spaces
Hiding places
Reality abounds
On the edges
Beauty is born
Of age
Mirth is found
In the calm
After the storm
A fresh gust of reality
Bites hard against
The skin
Sea spray sand blasts
Smooth stones against
The rocks
Shells hollow and warm
Release life amidst
The storm
Taken by wind or strike
Lofty feathers fly in
The heat
Still ruffled by strife
Tending precious ones
The heart
Decades dedicated two
So few remained
The start
Every time is new again
With you
Count the stars of heaven
