Can you see me?

Shuttle forth
To and fro
Left mind right
Behind glazed eyes
Watching all the people
Stop and stare
At me
Why does she smile?
They wonder
She seems lighter
Now the rain
Falls softly
Upon her fields
Toying with the idea
Rings of colour
Present themselves
Everywhere
Just for me
The future moments
Sit pleasantly
Between sips of coffee
And bites of sweet
Waiting once again
For me

Never knowing where
The path is leading
Watching overgrowth
Till footfalls mingle
Bluebeards in the breeze
Darting beaks tease
Hide and seek
Under foliage
Dappling blinding
Rays of light
Whisper on my cheek
Turn the other
Meet me here
Where no one
Wonders

Marmalade
Passionate Paddington
Making more always
Meanwhile Winnie
Puts up with
Hunger pains
Risk stinging swarm
Feeling all forlorn
Climbing trees
All day long
No substitute
Real honey
For love

Feeling undeserving
All the good
Fought and won
Home run
Wishing to believe
All the nights
Laughter and love
Across the distance
Waiting inspiration
Just for a change
Biding my time
Just Being
One
With love

Lights out
Dark as ink
Red light blue
Sinking deep
Stillness
Ocean swill
Moving us
Closer
Into the unknown
Swing the sextant
Neverending horizon
Promises never reached
Sunrise sheds light
End of the world
Beers in bars
Raise your glass
Ticker tape parade
Air and water signs
Breathe a torrent
Refuse to shine bright
Still earth revolves
Around you

Nothing to fear
But fear itself
Nothing to hide
Reveal yourself
A place where
You and I
Can simply be
By the sea

Surrounding life
Thirsts for the words
To ask for
Dam wall to burst
Decades streaming
Settling sediment
Drowning surroundings
Tide false rising
Darkest night moon
Shines faintly
On the bloom
Seeping in
Cracks facing
Torrent slipping through
Casting down
Terrified of fall
Received willingly
Dry bed bones
Filling swirling eddies
Place to ride home
Debris washed clean
Roots sinking deep
Resurrecting memories
Of life and growth
Long since lost
Centre squeezed tight
Let loose
Years of devastation
Fill the chasm
Restore to normal
Work of man missing
Ebb and flow
All around us
Tide sidles up
To her thigh
Tickles her toes
Bubbles her nose
She smiles hides
Her hopefulness
That love never left
Stored up for years
Only one
River remembered
Longing to enfold
Forever

Friendly voices
Full of love
Envy of attention
Elsewhere
En guard heart
Let not one know
How hard one fell
How still one crawls
How one thought
Fills nights
And mornings
Sleepless
Alone
Nature offers
A gentle reward
For resilience
Still reminiscent
Of you

One day I'll
Accidentally say
The right thing
To draw you in
With me
