Maybe one day
Clear as a bell
Sound barrier
Dissolves
Maybe next week
Sweet like a peach
Sore words
Repealed
Maybe next month
Bright as a button
Story house
Reveals
Maybe next year
Poignant is the date
Self-love
Heals
One day

Love that keeps you warm
Desire as the heat emanating
From the gas stove lit - extinguished
Once realised
One can build a fire - with what?
Outside these walls' shapely diameter
Of forest elders
Glacial remains confound me
Monuments to time gone by
Tears of loss and such colder
Forming peaks and troughs
Boulders of thought crushed
Weight of centuries soft snowfall
To walk together amongst it
Not for faint hearted
Tenacity, grit resilience
Packed duvet downy feathers
Love is love is all
Shine
Though loyalty shone
Like the morning sun
Some chose to close
The blinds to it
Ivory shelf
In the way of this world
Having someone to love
Like pinning wings
To a wooden board
Life is short
Belongings dust trophies
On an ivory shelf
Ne'er do such wrong
To yours or oneself
Seal
He ain’t heavy, he’s my brother
On edge
Twice in one year
I have been spurned
By one I dedicated
All future selves to
I smelled the edge
Stepped backwards
Felt the rush of
Bone breaking waves
Wind on my face
Venture out beyond
Foaming titillating
Swell tickling sand
I always come back
Knowing as deep
As orange roughy sea
Future love waits
For me
Mind palace
Necessarily, roof fell in
Doors broken down
Used as rustic tables
In the palace of the mind
What once segregated
Now feeds community
In stark inhospitable
Places fringe dwellers
I framed you differently
Than you allowed
Reckoned upon forever
Happiness elusive
Go about our business
Making homecooked life
Ones you might like
Hope someone looks after you
If I can’t hold you
In my arms
Passing joys
Hills are for heartbreaks
Rivers for romance
Beaches bond friendships
Highways hone minds
Live long enough
To go round them all
Thrice
Take passing travellers
Along for the ride
Constant companion
Ones love life lost
Joy the eyes give
Well worth the cost
Once
Take my portrait
Hold it with your eyes
Just once admit
That we loved and lost
With pride
Harbouring
Well may all harbour
Ill feeling
As constant as
Heavenly bodies orbit
As rolling swell lifts
Carries me toward
My destination
Quaint boat shed
Only one fish
To be seen
Grasses weeds sponges
Sand wrinkles between
Two laps of this ocean
Though not counting
No walls to bounce off
Just freedom
So it is with
Harbouring love
Quietly, waves surge
Crash on shores
Squeal of delight
Taken by surprise
Gentle forces
Holding me, floating
Count the stars of heaven
