Nothing Can Hide You

Another modern Haikū masquerading as a Love song.





Nothing Can Hide You  -  21 Aug 17

I have looked everywhere

All I ever see is you

Nothing can hide you

When my two favourite poem forms combine ~ bliss.

If You See Me

A little request.





If You See Me  -  20 Aug 17

If you see me

Walking alone

Offer me a smile

Smiles are best shared.

In Me

We all have a seed.





In Me  -  19 Aug 17

She gave me a seed

Suggested I watered it

Cared for it

Let the seed grow

Become strong and fertile

Keep it safe

When I looked

It was the seed of Love

It was in me

You just have to look.

Wind Talking

Over long periods I have seen and heard these things.





Wind Talking  -  18 Aug 17

Whistling between the branches

Slap the cords

Against the flagpole

Beating a rhythm

To counterpoint

The pattern of speech

Listen to the wind talking

The wind sometimes whispers and sometimes shouts.

Now

Right on the edge of limite surréaliste.





Now  -  17 Aug 17

Eventide opening into

A windswept day

Crows

Black leaves

Scattered across the sky

Sun settng

Throws silhouettes

Into the now

Shape the night

Watching the shapes in the night.

Rain Dark

A weather observation.





Rain Dark  -  16 Aug 17

Pale stone

Stippled drip by reluctant drip

From a rain dark sky

And soon the stone becomes rain dark as well.

Receiving

A Love song.





Receiving  -  15 Aug 17

She knows me

Offers sweet kisses

I receive with joy

A gift so precious

Jewels cannot compare

I receive you

Into my Heart

For someone really special.

Sliding In The Night

Observations of the mysteries.





Sliding In The Night  -  14 Aug 17

Silken shadows

Hold the mysteries of night

Revealed only to those

Who dream

Sliding in between

The echoes

Of the wishes of the dark

I dream of you

Observing YOU.

Giving

This is a Love song in a way.





Giving  -  13 Aug 17

I know her

She opened herself to me

Knowing what she means to me

She is giving

Her to me

The most Loving thing.

Reaching Within

An exploration of Love and what can happen if you let it.





Reaching Within  -  12 Aug 17

Her hand brushed my chest

She smiled

Reached into my Soul

Touched me

More intimately

Than I have ever been

Took my Heart

Laid me bare for her

To see within

Know my Love

She kissed me

Allow the contact for full experience.

On The Verge

My offering today is based around the first card in the Major Arcana of the Tarot, "The Fool"





On The Verge  -  11 Aug 17

A moment in my life

Brings me to the verge

Of paradise

Shows me the next step

The Fool takes my hand

Invites me

To step forward

Into the unknown

And see

Taking chances and discovering.

Laugh

Another modern Haikū for your delight today.





Laugh  -  10 Aug 17

Hearing you

Soft sweet song of Love

Laugh kisses my Soul

Your laugh is wonderful.

Rain Again

A statement about wetness.





Rain Again  -  08 Aug 17

The sky is leaking

A gentle torrent

To refill the puddles

Along the road

Pale grey cloud

Hides the sun again

Rain everywhere

Holiday season and we have low-flying cloud and rain to offer the visitors to west Cornwall.

Drips

This resulted from watching the rain and thoughts of something else entirely.





Drips  -  07 Aug 17

Leaves hold onto

The passing rain

Washing themselves

In the cascade

Drips wash my mind

And my Soul

What else?  I am not telling.

Anticipation

Speculation into the it might be worlds.





Anticipation  -  06 Aug 17

The thoughts of

What might happen

Inspire the mind

To start dreaming

To build a

What if

Scene of maybe

Just to what is waiting.

Discovery

Yet another modern Haikū today.





Discovery  -  05 Aug 17

Looking around

Accepting the wonders

In every moment

Just because I like them.

Waiting For The Moon

Observation of a day closing.





Waiting For The Moon  -  04 Aug 17

The sun considered setting

Into a murky cloud

The western sky

A brownish haze

To the east

Silver shone

On the lip of the horizon

Selene was coming

The silver light is beautiful.

Private Dreams

Another modern Haikū today.





Private Dreams  -  03 Aug 17

I have held you close

Breathed you

You intoxicate me

I hope you do not mind seeing these little Love songs so frequently.

Surprises

Another modern Haikū today.





Surprises  -  02 Aug 17

Little smiles

Open the way

Surprises

Surprises can be so much fun.

The Web

A Love song with a spidery theme.





The Web  -  01 Aug 17

Ariadne wove

A silken spell

Softer than a dream

Enticing

A bed with you

Enriched with Damask

To wrap the senses

Claiming me

Beautiful Ariadne wove a bed for us.

Darkness

Watching the changes.





Darkness  -  31 Jul 17

Hidden from the light

In streams of shadow

I watch

The movement shape

The darkness

Into new forms

Watching and waiting.

Carried By The Wind

One of those images which can be heard anywhere.





Carried By The Wind  -  29 Jul 17

Thought drifting

On a stream of memory

Formed of images

Shaped in the dream

Carried in darkness

By the song of the rain

Listen

No I am not confused, images can be heard.

In A Wish

Passion and dreams often work together to produce something bigger.





In A Wish  -  28 Jul 17

Captured

A dream coloured by Love

In ways which were

Invoked by Passion

I claim the dream

Open it

In a wish

Wishes know.

Jester

Another in the "Signs" sequence.





Jester  -  27 Jul 17

Just a moment in

June carried a memory

January whispered to prevent

Jaded thought from

Jinxing Love

July carried on

Sometimes difficult to find words to fit the theme but it does come together eventually.

In The Middle

Where am I.





In The Middle  -  26 Jul 17

In the middle

Of the dream

I wake to find you

In the middle of my dream

Confusion takes me

As dream becomes dream

Becomes real

And I dream of me

Dreaming you

Dreaming me

Exploring with me.

Back And Back

An exploration into a slightly surreal flow.





Back And Back  -  25 Jul 17

Now

Thoughts and actions

Blur into

A fictional reality

Back

When things seemed

Clearer and in focus

Where reality was born

Back

In that space

Before time was

And reality was not

Is was waiting

The Is-ness of everything is ready to become.

Before

Another observation in the late afternoon.





Before  -  24 Jul 17

Between the showers

Evening light shines

From the setting sun

Over a gentle river

Ripples reflect the shapes

Endlessly under the trees

Before sunset.

Seasongs

This poem was birthed from a mis-typing of "seasons" and I thought I should go with it.

Seasongs  -  23 Jul 17

Music from a myriad spirits

Given voice

By the chanting waves

Song of the sea

Enchanting

Calling me back

To listen again

I think it worked.

Seasons

A Love song today.





Seasons  -  22 Jul 17

A song returned

To play once again

In my mind

Not quite a haunting

A reminder

Of all our seasons

Together

And those

Yet to come

Just for YOU.

Tasting You

Another modern Haikū for you today.





Tasting You  -  21 Jul 17

The kiss you gave

Still lingers

I can taste you

I Love those special kisses.

After

Echo upon echo through the hours.





After  -  20 Jul 17

All the echoes of day

Fall silent as darkness drifts

Taunting the shadows

Endless wandering

Repeating as echoes

Is an echo real?
