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

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

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

The places where
Time is no obstacle
There are no errors
Diversity abounds
Its own harmony
Patience is prudent
All else is strife
Cycles return to earth
Always give life
Tears from the sky
Flow endlessly
Carving sculptures
Shaping curves
Animating colours
Hidden beauty
Arise

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
