Enchanting Me

There is a very special Spellweaver in my life.





Enchanting Me  -  11 Dec 16

Spellweaver

She cast a net

About me

Pulled gently

And took me in

I felt the words

Wrapping me

Enchanting me

She gathered me

To her Heart

Her web of spells

Held me close

I was hers

Forever

YOU know who.

Arrival

Always watching for YOU, happy when YOU arrive.





Arrival  -  10 Dec 16

In the afternoon

When all is quiet

A whisper tells me

That you are here

I can hear your smile

Louder than the words

You speak

Always here in my mind

Your arrival is always

Welcomed by me

Because you have

Completed me

Missing pieces found and replaced.

Wishing You

Feeling an absence more strongly on the 07 December and this was a kind of prayer.





Wishing You  -  07 Dec 16

You are not here

I have asked

Though there was an answer

You did not arrive

Wishing hoping

Asking again

Wishing you were here

I think we all feel this way sometimes.

Mind Dancing

A Love song with a generous helping of Lust song.





Mind Dancing  -  06 Dec 16

The swirl of a skirt

Music playing a sweet melody

The touch of your back

In my hands

Your lips brush mine

Our dance takes me

Into our shared mind

We dance forever

Together

YOU know who I am dancing with here.

Guardian

Inspired by a direct message conversation this song was born.





Guardian  -  05 Dec 16

I stand before you

Watching

Protecting your thoughts

Always with you

Protecting you

In my cloak of darkness

My sword of stars in hand

Ready to be your guardian

Your protector

Your Knight of Night

Interesting how many thoughts come from seemingly random words or phrases.

Because We

Another song to say thank you.





Because We  -  04 Dec 16

I remember those dark days

When nothing seemed to be right

Candles did not pierce the night

No warmth from the fire

Now light begins to shatter

The night and clarity opens the day

To beauty and Love

Because We

Thank you for YOU.

Unconditional [Acrostic]

An acrostic today, it was not planned but this is rather fitting for a Yule poem.






Unconditional [Acrostic]  03 Dec 16

Universal special thoughts

Now flowing

Curving back

On itself to become

New again in the morning

Dream echoes

In the daylight

Twilight follows soon

Imagination flows

Opening doors in the mind

Natural way to see

All inward

Love

Happy Yule or whatever Winter Solstice type event you celebrate.

Playing In Cloud

Hide and seek.





Playing In Cloud  -  02 Dec 16

Looking out

From behind cloud

Dazzling

Did he really think

He was not visible

Wrapping himself in cloud

Thinking the game

Could continue

Playing is part of the fun.

Whispers In My Heart

There are a lot of whispers, some are much louder than others.





Whispers In My Heart  -  01 Dec 16

Hearing you

Soft words caress my mind

Seeing you

Visions fill me

Listening to you

With my Heart

Your whispers are loudest

They tell me

Of you

I know you

I listen to them all, particularly the one from and about YOU.

Midnight Waves

A memory of bio-luminescent life-forms seen at the coast at night.





Midnight Waves  -  30 Nov 16

The welcome dark

Allows me to see

The tiny sparks

Of light

Driven by the waves

Going where the ocean

Takes them

This is a really fascinating sight.

 

Dark Vision

Another song for YOU.





Dark Vision  -  29 Nov 16

Watching

For a message

Night has begun

Hours of starlight

Fill my sight

Thoughts

Drift toward you

Vision clears

In darkness I see you

Songs for YOU happen quite often.

Whispers Of Time

I really do not know how to categorise this poem.





Whispers Of Time  -  28 Nov 16

In all the worlds

In all the words

Spoken by the sages

In the annals of time

None sound louder

Than the whisper

That sleeps in the mind

Any suggestions?

Drops In The Ocean

Dreams and reality intermingle, who can say which is which.





Drops In The Ocean  -  27 Nov 16

Sailing

A dark water dream

The ocean

Washes over me

Drops of Love

Bathe me

I know you are with me

In our dream

In our ocean

Sailing until dawn

Dreaming with YOU.

Impressions

Three modern Haikū on offer today.





Impressions  -  26 Nov 16

I

Soft subtle perfume

Around me floats

Carrying a thought of you

II

Remembering

Your voice

When I am alone

III

Feeling you around me

Knowing my memories are true

Impressions of you

Inspired by YOU.

Holding You

In the place where mysteries grow.





Holding You  -  25 Nov 16

In the garden of Love

I held You

Mysteries surrounded us

Wrapped in the perfume

Of the flowers

Dreams seemed to hold us

The dreams became reality

Because I was

Holding You

And You held me

YOU held me.

Tilt

This poem was a bit of a surprise to me.  As usual; the title came to me first then my mind inspired by Muse filled in the details.





Tilt  -  24 Nov 16

I have watched

The circular dance

Sails in the breeze

Now I ride

Lance in hand

The challenge

Has been laid

No windmill is safe

For those who are unaware tilting and jousting are used almost synonymously.

Don Quixote ~ ready to play?

Sisters In The Sky

An observation.





Sisters In The Sky  -  23 Nov 16

Morning star

Shines bright to call

The sun

Into the day

Evening star

Welcomes the night

With the departure

Of the day

Two sisters

Shine as one

Carrying Love to all

Who see them

Or should it be called an observatory?

Through Your Eyes

Something near a Love song involving that one special person.





Through Your Eyes  -  22 Nov 16

have looked at the world

Seen how I look

To you

The essence of you

Infuses my life

We look into the mirror

Of what we see

What we see is

We

YOU have seen WE too.

Rain Dances

Yet more weather observaions.





Rain Dances  -  21 Nov 16

In the sky

On the land

Silver feet

Dance to the rhythm

Of the drums

Of rain on the roof

Hypnotic beat

Invites other feet

To join

Have you heard the drums?

Winter Night Dream

A short poem inspired by the title of "A Midsummer Night's Dream".





Winter Night Dream  -  20 Nov 16

In the dark

Glimmering thoughts appear

Opening a dream

In the space of the night

When the winter smiles

I would have called this Midwinter but we are not there yet.

Ice In The Air

Another weather poem.





Ice In The Air  -  19 Nov 16

Searching for a place

To land

Scratch the cloud

Rattle the land

Sharp edges pierce

My thoughts

Scatter my dreams

In darkness

I hear them

Ice in the air

Circling

Ready to shatter

My body

This one has a rather negative close.

Green

This is an attempt at a chakra poem.





Green  -  18 Nov 16

Hearts in alignment

Spirit kisses Spirit

When Chakras touch

Lips follow

Green with a hint of pink

Colours flow

From Chakra to Chakra

I think it works.

From The West

Another weather observation.





From The West  -  17 Nov 16

Rain tapping on my window

Asking for attention

Trying to ignore it

But insisting that I should listen

Now throwing sleet

Against the glass

Listen to my cold words

Wet and noisy.

Wind Wish

This poem is related to the "Five Thousand Miles" sequence.





Wind Wish  -  16 Nov 16

Calling for a ride

On the wings of wind

You are so near

Yet so far

I wish the wind

Would carry me

To you

Asking the wind for transportation.

Night Witch

The Night Witch is a really Lovely person.





Night Witch  -  15 Nov 16

Taking me in the night

Enchanting me

Creating a dream

Starlight spell

Ensnared me

Wrapped my mind

In a web of silk

Gossamer dream

The night belongs to her

And in the night

She claimed me

I belong to her

The Night Witch

She has enchanted me.

Invitation

YOU are in my poem again.





Invitation  -  14 Nov 16

By starlight gleam

I watched you

Walk across the sand

In your eyes I saw

The special smile

The one which said

Come with me

To walk

And be

And YOU are always welcome.

Moonbow Dreams

Seeing a photograph of a Moonbow on the BBC News website reminded me of acrually seeing them during my stays on the edge of Dartmoor.





Moonbow Dreams  -  13 Nov 16

Arc of silver

Across the sky

Calls me to attend

The world of my dreams

Painted with the same brush

Silver moonbow

They are really quite lovely and fascinating.

Touching Light

Another poem for and about the one special person.





Touching Light  -  12 Nov 16

Tasting the brilliance

Of your Love

Enfolding waves

Wrapping me

Gemtly feeling you

To take you into me

Touching lightly

Touching you

Touching light

You know who YOU are.

Perception

This may or may not be real, depending on your perception.





Perception  -  11 Nov 16

I do not know

Whether what I see

Is real

Or if my mind

Is just making it up

Invention of reality

Reality is an invention

It all depends on which way

I look

Perception of perception

How does it look to you?

In The Day

Another observation poem.





In The Day  -  10 Nov 16

Shadows of clouds

Drift

Across the land

Painting images of themselves

In the illusion

Of the moment

In the day

Watch the paintings form.

To You

In a way this is a sequel to "From Me" because of the title though the feel of the poem is different.





To You  -  09 Nov 16

Long moments in the sun

You spoke the words

Wove the spell

To charm my Heart

You looked deep within me

Saw clearly all of me

Knew that what was there

I would willingly give to you

What do you think?

Because [Acrostic]

An acrostic dedicated to the one special person.





Because [Acrostic]  -  08 Nov 16

Been with you for an

Eternity in a state of bliss

Calling on the stars to witness

All our Love

Unbounded and freely given

Shared without condition

Endlessly because of you

YOU know.

Mind's Eye

A Love song with just a little Lust song adding to the chorus.





Mind's Eye  -  07 Nov 16

Watching you

Feeling your Love

Knowing what I see

Is real

Hearing your gentle voice

Echoing the words I speak

Feeling your hands

Smelling your special perfume

These things and more

My mind's eye

Can see

Thinking about the Special One.

Song In The Night

A little poem about an observation and general thoughts.





Song In The Night  -  06 Nov 16

Nightingale takes the melody

Shared with the blackbird

Chorus in the night

Singing in the secret darkness

Of a special world

The song fills everything

I remember listening to blackbirds singing at night when I lived in London.

From Me

A little bouquet for that someone special.





From Me  -  05 Nov 16

Formed from the words

I spoke to you

A bouquet of secret flowers

Presented to you

From me

With Love

To take with you

Wherever you go

Wonder who ~ YOU know.

Autumn Senryū

A form of poem I have not offered for a long time.

Autumn Senryū

I

Leaves washed from the trees

By heavy rain ~ once crisp now

Soft beneath my feet

II

Cloud scrapes the hillside

Harvesting the last flowers

For summer's spirit

III

Autumn holds us all

In a cool tender embrace

Warmth not far away

Quite satisfying I feel.
