To be kind
Rather correct
Love pain pleasure
Unequal measure
Were I weighed
Where I erred
Delights abound
Where ache is found
Not to be
Opens doors
To all that lies in wait
Patiently
Hundreds of hours
Needed to rest
In a warm place
To rise
With you

I dreamt of a time
When love was blind
Laughter flowed freely
Slumber fell and love arose
Returned to us

This time I'll meet you
On the summit
Our only way
Downhill
Is easy work
Eleven past the hour
Thinking of you

Perfect isolation
Remote island
Siberia
Laying in decades
Till the sky turns grey
Longing returns
Find another way
Return past forty
Cold water bathing
Shoreline waving
In and out
Under me
Waves bellowing
Come to me
I would fly over
Land and sea
To dwell
With you

Being with you
Breathes new life
A chance moment
To be renewed
Ever reaching
Oft receiving
Sinews of love
Social glue
Wandering far
Never lost
Contented rest
Glancing upon
Faces and homes
Friends and alone
Loyal companions
Care for our tone
Warm blooded bodies
Flit, flee and curl
Above and beneath
The whirl of day
Stillness at night
Only outside
The pace of the mind
Never sleeps
In my kind

Potatoes
The Song of the Lark
You've made your mark
In the sound
Of my heart

Ruminating is beautiful
Shapely forms adorn
Sky of shifting colours
Curtain always drawn
Abundance of many
Quiet devastation
Yet, still the world
Big enough for all
People abound plentiful
Faces share humanity
Some friendly forms
Others more

Two ways to escape
Holding on edge
Hand up and out
Filling the void
Magnificent effort
Return the earth
From whence it came
Settling life returns
Populated first
Hold down roots
Local familiars
Fly in freely
Planting family
Speak to each
Strengthen weak
Colony to greet
Kin to kin
No mess we're in
Growth abounds
No space is found
Bloom alike
Is golden
With you

Where do they all come from?

Light descends
In shapes and forms
Sometimes yours
Through a face
So beautiful
Taking pictures
In my mind
Flash of smile
Words are kind
Hide inside
Holding hands
By my side
Never touching
Flecks of light
Move on too soon
Chasing rainbows
Absorbing in
Sights and sounds
Making meaning
Riddle me love
Unravelling
Everyday
Rearranging
Colours fade
Kaleidescope
A sweet array
Each colour taste
Hues and blues
A mind parade
Alternate universe
Tea sipped lips
Discern a word
In the stillness
Of morning
Life always dawning
With us
