Standing here reflecting
On how many ways
My body is here
But the rest
Is somewhere else
With you

Falling softly
Petals of intention
Fell softly on my ears
Floating to the floor
Covered over many years
In every gentle way
She shed truth that I'd forgot
Yet all the choice I heard
Was 'she loves me'~ yes or not?
In this land of make believe
Is where I've made my home
A hundred paper cranes
Tell me how to spot fool's gold
Lover, sister, friend
Only three chords that I play
Spiralled round a seashell heart
As tea sipped smiling fades
Love like
A tidal wave
We all want to
Be bombarded
With love
Post-service
As desert rose
Where the dirt
Lapped up
Falling droplets
Thirst a daily
Familial ritual
Now I turn and see
The high tide mark
Since last week
And beg to breathe
Bloom and grow
Among kindness
Where gentle waters
Steep near
Woolly Tea Trees
By the creek
Quietly
Quantum
Immeasurable love
No bounds or limits
Growing exponentially
In response to
Space filled silence
Expanding forever
Into the spectrum
Of stardust
Magnificence
Meanwhile on earth
My two hearts
Explore the inside
Of a tardis
Whirling around me
Though bigger
On the inside
Only takes me
Where I don't
Want to go
One heart palpitates
While the other stable
Who can love twice
In one human body?
Present defines reality
Limited to words
I cannot say aloud
Push the big button
See where it goes?
Take me back
To the time
Before sliding doors
Closed
A year since tomorrow
I started a trend
Since hearing a word
Laid eyes on a friend
A sense caught me reeling
No putting back in
My eyes stealing jaffas
Down cinema aisle
My hands itched to hold
Secured under thighs
I smiled uncontrollably
In all the sad scenes
Mind danced the tango
In moments serene
I dared ask another
Calendar moment
A hug and a whisper
Dazed in her glow
Nonsensical laughs
Happy cry the way home
Pouring heart out
To a friend
On the phone
Like a Kinder surprise
A taste and a trinket
Never too old
For love's sinking feeling
Somewhere still
The single greatest
Motivator
Found ever far or wide
A flood of love
From memories
That rise with
Morning tide
It energises
Opens lids
Reluctant limbs
Lift high
Take hand to any
Task unsatisfied
Since evenin' by
The relics stand
High and proud
Resemble who they are
A glimpse of them
A tonic for the
Churning thought to calm
When day is done
The quiet mind
Sends signal
To the place
Where somewhere still
They go about
Their neverending race
A certainty flies over me
A picture of good health
But if not I can rest
Assured my love might
Strengthen well
The little things
The little things
I learned from love
You can never
Have enough
Though fast or starve
Run far from it
It always
Catches up
All things
You were all things to me
Breathing air seeing none
You meant the whole world
Revolving the sun
Reliving lost dreams
That fled once awake
Exploring new ground
No claiming a stake
Imagining lives
We never would live
Biding our time
For someone to give
Beside myself
How many ways I'll tell
Lengths and miles I'd go
To prove what you
Already know
I'd win Master chef
Learn to cook
World's best
Find tea of Ceylon
Brew delicious
Breakfast cup
Kick start business
Buy your dream
Beach house
Licence to fly
Drop you in
Western Wilds
Sail boat to ride
Marine exploring
Ocean tide
I'll take you all
These places
On our imagination
But only time
And place I have
Right here and now
Beside
I would rather
Be poor and in love
Living on tea and vegies
Hear love sing out loud
Than make up songs about it
Live in a yurt fancy free
Than find a home without you
Stay, wait and wonder
Than solo sail world round
See your face again
Than know everything about you
Close my eyes and count to ten
Than hide in the dark to be found
Count the stars of heaven
