Meet Me On The Beach

Let us prepare for a journey of exploration.





Meet Me On The Beach  -  06 Sep 16

The tide is right for us

Flowing to our feet

Ready to take us

On a journey

Into our secret world

We are ready to leave

Meet me

Meet me on the beach

Let us go.

In The Cloud

Composed on a day which resembles a lot of horror or mystery stories.





In The Cloud  -  05 Sep 16

Hoof beats

Low flying cloud

Horses hidden

Phantom day riders

Fly through our daydream

Spur the fantasy

Into something real

In the swirling cloud

Some sounds are untraceable because of the low-flying cloud.

Lurking Shadows

When darkness crawls.





Luking Shadows  - 04 Sep 16

Obscuring

Dark cloud

Lays extreme shadow

Across the land

Sun hidden

From their lairs

The lurking shadows

Plot to create

Darkness

The shadows wait.

September Rains

Quite a wet month so far, it is raining as I write this poet.





September Rains  -  03 Sep 16

September rains came

To wash summer

From the sky

Soft pencil sketch

Shades of grey

The world turns

Monochrome

Days blend into greys

Watching the wind-blown curtains of rain across the fields west of here.

Inner Light

This is a description of a very special person.





Inner Light  -  02 Sep 16

The bright glow of Passion

Shone

In a way which illumined

All the world

Showed the strength

Of her inner light

And lit my life

YOU know who that special person is.

In The Light Of Night

One of the mystical observations today.





In The Light Of Night  -  01 Sep 16

Darkness painted

With the brush of Moon

Silver lines

On branches

Against the sky

Night glows

With an Elven light

Brings the night

To life

Watch for the light.

Night Moves

This seems to be a new addition to the Chess Game" sequence.





Night Moves  -  31 Aug 16

The knights dance

Before the court

Intricate steps confusing

Onlookers not expecting

The shifts

Of tempo

In the darkness of night

Unexpected moves

Touch the passing figures

In the dance

A bishop gives his

Benediction

I hope I can take it further.

When I Was

The search that everyone undertakes at some point.





When I Was  -  30 Aug 16

In other times

I was questing

For an answer

To questions which may not

Have answers

I have touched a future me

But answers

Still elude me

I still look

Everywhere

Often the answers cannot be found.

Shadows

It is quite disturbing how things can lurk and haunt the unsuspecting.





Shadows  -  29 Aug 16

Hiding in plain sight

Forgotten because

Seen frequently

They know too well

The unwanted thoughts

Of the restless mind

Hoped to be forgotten

In the light of day

Futile hopes because

Every shadow tells a story

There are shadows on every wall.

Wind Calling

Another offering in the "Five Thousand Miles" sequence.





Wind Calling  -  28 Aug 16

From the west

I hear your voice

Soft statements of Love

Whispered in the wind

Carried to me

From five thousand miles

To nestle in my Heart

And tell me of you

A little Love song for YOU.

Waiting For Changes

One of the signs of autumn, change creeps across the land.





Waiting For Changes  -  27 Aug 16

The winds have shifted

Cold edge to the air

As the old moves

To protect its existence

In the moment of movement

Change can be seen forming

Now we wait

For the Transformation

We change too.

Old Memories Watching

Interesting how reading something can trigger a new thought.





Old Memories Watching  -  26 Aug 16

A book flipped open

By random gusts of wind

Pages carry ancient memories

All watch as thoughts

Tumble in a dance

Of chaos

Meaningless ideas of

What may have resulted

From continued connection

Of the fragment of time

Futile ideas

And still the memories watch

Inspired by “Watching Old Memories” published 03 Aug 16

Moon Flower

A slightly surreal Love song wrapped around the Moon.





Moon Flower  -  26 Aug 16

Subtle scent of silver

Petals glow

In their own light

Perfume dances

On my tongue

Moon flower

Wraps my mind

Takes me on a journey

Where silver

In a dream

Smells sweet

Smell the Moon.

Talking In My Sleep

Conversations with YOU while we sleep.





Talking In My Sleep  24 Aug 16

Sweet conversation

Fills my mind

Thoughts shared with you

Openly delightful

Long involved

Deeply meaningful

We discussed our yesterday

How tomorrow could form

How we might explore

And taste the delights

When I wake

We will taste them

The discussions can be really deep sometimes.

Painting With Sound

Art and music and Soul song.





Painting With Sound  -  23 Aug 16

The music of the spheres

Inspired

Wordless harmonies

Transformed

Through Heart song

Brushless

Images formed in mind

Through sound

Your voice paints

Your portrait

In the colours of the stars

I see you

Listen to the pictures.

Taste The Unexpected

The unexpected often holds the sweetest flavour.





Taste The Unexpected  -  22 Aug 16

Once

Long ago

The forbidden fruit

Was craved by everyone

Then it was eaten

And the craving passed

Desire always asked for more

The unexpected flavour

In an unexpected place

Craving begins again

Craving can be pleasurable too.

Starlight Drifting

Watching and journeying with the stars.





Starlight Drifting  -  21 Aug 16

Open nights

Watching stars on the paths

In their flight

Slow drift

Through the dream of life

Starlight colours my world

Always dreaming.

Dream Kisses

Dreams are wonderful places to start creating.





Dream Kisses  -  20 Aug 16

On the borderline

Between what is

And what might be

We wait

For the moment when

A new now forms

While we wait

Kisses help to form

The dream

Into reality

Wonderful way to find things to work on.

Murmurs In The Night

A gentle Love song today.





Murmurs In The Night  -  19 Aug 16

Wind talking

Trees dance with the rhythm

I listen to your gentle words

Murmuring Love thoughts

Directly to my Heart

As the wind takes your words

To wrap around me

In the night

We have all heard and felt these things.

Summer Winds

Another weather observation.





Summer Winds  -  18 Aug 16

Clear skies through the day

Now in the afternoon

Pushing cloud before it

Wind from the southwest

Carrying a song of rain

Before it can get here

I have a memory of petrichor

I Lovethat smell.

Hanging In The Air

Weather observations happen quite frequently.





Hanging In The Air  -  17 Aug 16

No chance to evade

Pull themselves clear

As they come ashore

Clamber up the cliffs

Crawl across the land

Now the valleys

Covered in cloud

Hanging in the air

A lot of these observations are rain or low flying cloud related.

Together

Just a simple [?] statement.





Together  -  16 Aug 16

In all the ways

And places

We have been

There was never

Any moment

When we were not

Together

We together forever.

Open Night

An invitation to play.





Open Night  -  15 Aug 16

Days so cluttered

Fragments of events

Shattered pieces of old dreams

Swept into corners

Hoping to forget

Nights are different

Clear enough to invite you in

Pretending

In the corners of my new dream

Thoughts want to play

Inviting you with a wicked smile

To join the game

Play through the night

Forget the clutter

Sleep when we are tired

An open invitation for YOU.

Code

Words which are not really secret.





Code  -  14 Aug 16

A secret language

But not so secret

Just something to transmit

Thoughts in private

To touch the innermost

Intimate self

Stir Passion in the fires

Words to inflame

Je t'Aime

Just to touch YOU.

Time Was

There us an air of clearing out here.

Time Was  -  13 Aug 15

Editing the stream

Removing unwanted thoughts

Until the way is clear

But

Time was

Has a habit of filling the void

To reinstate the thoughts

The game begins again

This was partially inspired by an old alert I had set up on an old laptop ["The Brick"].

The whole phrase was "Time was and time shall be again."

Subtle

Always willing to consider changes in direction





Subtle  -  12 Aug 16

Little whispers
Touch my thoughts
Leaving subtle suggestions
To raise my imagination
Give new ideas
What to do next
You offer a new direction
Which allows a different view
A subtle change





I may not actually take them but I will look.

Joker

One night each year...





Joker  -  11 Aug 16

Game starts
Opening moves made
Watching the sky
For the signs
Darkness starts to gather
As the cards are laid
Each player claims
The win in turn
Then cloud covers
And with a quiet smile
As the clouds are complete
The final player lays
The joker





My thoughts on the night of the Persied meteor shower

Drifting [Acrostic]

I have not offered an acrostic for a little while.





Drifting [Acrostic]  -  10 Aug 16

Down on the water
Ripples repeat the sun
Infinite dance
Fresh words carried
The stream echoes
In sparkling image
Never repeating
Gifts of ligh





Playing with words.

Dream Of You

A Love song for the one special person.





Dream Of You  -  09 Aug 16

I close my eyes
When I am awake
I see you
I feel you

When I am asleep
My dream eyes open
I see you
I feel the kisses you share

I dream of you
Always and everywhere
I want you
I want you forever





Dreaming YOU constantly,

Sample

Sampling YOU.





Sample  -  08 Aug 16

Tasting you
With a kiss
Small samples
Kiss shows me you
In detail
I know you more now
Than if I just
Talked or watched





Fun.
