Wind Singer


You can hear all the songs if you just listen.





Wind Singer  -  21 Oct 17

Wordless songs
Melody is enough to inspire
The singer in creating
A gentle song
To be carried on the wind
Listen for it with your Soul







Can you her them?


Sunday 29 October 2017

Asking


Asking a very important question.





Asking  -  19 Oct 17

Always polite
Never demanding
Just asking if you might
Consider
Loving me







The answer is so valuable.

Ancient Stories


Having been in these stories I can vouch for the truth of them.





Ancient Stories  -  18 Oct 17

Rooted in the worlds of dream
But always wrapped in truth
The ancient stories
Tell of special sacred Love
While the gods
Drink their wine







An interesting time.


Friday 27 October 2017

Have You


A question to which I know my answer.





Have You  -  17 Oct 17

Ever wondered
How our Love began
Still grows
Have you
All I know is
That I am happy
More than I have ever been
I am content







Love grows always.

Whispers At Daybreak


Have you ever listened to the whispers?





Whispers At Daybreak  -  16 Oct 17

The bed tells a story
Of journeys in the night

Questing for lost treasure
To satisfy the King

Sailing on an ocean of stars
To discover new worlds

At daybreak the sheets
Tell the tales in whispers







Beds could tell some really fascinating and revealing stories.

Dancing With The Storm


Another modern HaikÅ« today.





Dancing With The Storm  -  15 Oct 17

Trees move to a random beat
As a whistle plays a lament
Dancing with the storm







One of my favourite poem forms.

Pictures Form


One of the fun things about living in the far west of Cornwall is the fairly frequent appearance of low-flying cloud.





Pictures Form  -  14 Oct 17

Watching
Wondering what I will see
Out of the mists
Pictures form
Insubstantial
Slowly taking shape
Within the grey
Colours
Become real
To become







Become what?  Whatever they want.

Gathering Of Thoughts


This is the way my mind works.





Gathering Of Thoughts  -  13 Oct 17

Difficult to tell
Is a conference or just
A murder of crows
Black feathered thoughts
Gather on my horizon
Awaiting some event







Before you start to get worried "a murder of crows" is the group name.

Talking In My Mind


This Love song was partially inspired by a request to include a certain line in one of my poems.





Talking In My Mind  -  12 Oct 17

Words develop into thoughts
I talk with you often
In my mind
Share ideas and feelings
On a deep and secret level
Only you will ever know
My Heart revolves around you







YOU know which line.


Saturday 21 October 2017

A Handful Of Stars


I do not quite know how to introduce this poem apart from calling it a Love song.





A Handful Of Stars  -  11 Oct 17

Cosmic dice
Cast by an unseen hand
Form patterns
Which the mind joins
Into images
To understand
A handful of stars
I can see you
Constellation







A constellation of YOU.

Little Dreams


These dream seeds can be found everywhere.





Little Dreams  -  10 Oct 17

Dream seeds dropped
By the paths
Little dreams
To be found
Gathered
Sown in the fields of sleep
To grow







They can provide an interesting harvest.


Thursday 19 October 2017

Time


One of those images which is more than just a dream.





Time  -  09 Oct 17

For the moment
She danced in my thoughts
Time slowed for me
To enable a clearer view
I watched her movemnts
Pleasing dance with time







Nearly shifting into reality.


Wednesday 18 October 2017

I Knew You


A Love song which has been growing for a very long time.





I Knew You  -  08 Oct 17

When the dream of the Universe
Was still young
We were together building the dream
I knew you then
I know you still
And the dream grows







A really Lovely dream.

Walk With Me


The title says it all.





Walk With Me  -  07 Oct 17

Invitation
To share a space
Through a walk
In our lives and times
We can explore
A thousand worlds
With just a thought
Thee and me
Together







Hand in hand and Hearts together.

La Luna Del Cacciatore


This poem was birthed when I saw the Harvest Moon rising.  It immediately reminded me of a line from a movie which referred to "La Luna Del Cacciatore" ~ the Hunter's Moon.





La Luna Del Cacciatore  -  06 Oct 17

When the huntress comes
I shall not hide
She carries Cupid's bow
As her main tool
To attract and capture
Her target
There is no point
In hiding
She knows where I am
I am hers






The movie for those who are interested is "Alien v Predator".

Wish


A Love song with a magical flavour.





Wish  -  05 Oct 17

Wish
First I ask for you
Wish
Second I ask you want me
Wish
Third I ask if we can be together
Three wishes
Are all I need
For We







We is the most important state of being.


Saturday 14 October 2017

Feel Me


A little Love song today.





Feel Me  -  04 Oct 17

I am around you
Holding you close
I feel you
Can you feel me

The touch of our Love
Fires our lives
Feel me
Holding you always







Feeling Love flowing.

Ghost Moon


Observation again.





Ghost Moon  -  03 Oct 17

Cloud filled night
Sky completely grey
A hint of light
Behind the cloud
Betrays the presence
Of the ghost moon







Little clues in the sky.


Thursday 12 October 2017

Little Flower


Another modern HaikÅ« for your delight today.





Little Flower  -  02 Oct 17

Little further
Urged onward by thoughts
Of what flower might be seen







I Love building these.

Laughter Echoes


Those moments when random memories surface.





Laughter Echoes  -  01 Oct 17

In a quiet time
A soft memory
Of a time long past
When a moment of laughter
Returned to me
Echoes in my mind







Sometimes laughing out loud can make people think you are a little odd.


Tuesday 10 October 2017

Suspended


Just a statement of fact.





Suspended  -  30 Sep 17

I am holding on
Not letting go
Of my dreams
They are all that
Keeps me suspended
Above reality







Dreams are more important than "reality".

You Know My Name


Standing beside the stream and thinking.





You Know My Name  -  29 Sep 17


I stand and watch
As the ripples pass
You have talked with the sea
Shared unspoken secrets
Over the years
You know my name
Though I never said it out loud
Now you must keep the silence
I entrusted you
River keep my secret







This was inspired by a line from an old Doctor Who story when the Doctor was talking with River Song and uses the phrase "River, you know my name".
I changed the concept to allow an actual river to take the place of the person.

In The Wind


Communication of the sweetest kind.





In The Wind  -  28 Sep 17

I taste you
Delicate flavours
Which are yours alone
I feel you
Feeling your presence
In the wind
I feel you
Touching me
Making me know
That you are close
I taste you
I taste your kisses
Inviting me on







Tasting, touching, kissing.

Dreams In The Day


A little dream exploration.





Dreams In The Day  -  27 Sep 17

Awake
But holding images
Of other people
In my life
I dream them
To allow me
To interact with them
In the day
In ways that are not possible
Except in dream







Sometimes the only way to connect.


Friday 6 October 2017

Light Ship


I have dreamed with the Dolphins.





Light Ship  -  26 Sep 17

Across a star-strewn sky
She swam
Dolphins dreamed
Of a ship of light
Which carried lovers
On a secret journey
To a sacred isle
Love calls them home







I am going to the isle.


Thursday 5 October 2017

Dream Kisses


Lovely phantom touch.





Dream Kisses  -  25 Sep 17

As if a phantom touched my lips
Whispered in my ear
The kisses you gave
Still fill my waking hours
I hear you still
As I lie asleep
Calling the phantom back to me
In my dream
We kiss again







Anytime, all the time.

Afternoon Rest


Watching an attempt to have a little sleep.






Afternoon Rest  -  24 Sep 17

The Earth craved a little sleep
She summoned a blanket
From the sea
A low-flying cloud
Was provided and the Earth
Drew it around her shoulders

The Sun felt that the Earth
Had slept enough and he
Evaporated the blanket
The Earth was not satisfied
Wrapped another blanket
Around her body and slept







I feel like that sometimes.

Tiny Moments


Little things make a difference.





Tiny Moments  -  23 Sep 17

It does not take much
Just a moment
In thought
As time slips around me
Tiny images drift
Through the mists
Coalescing the wisps
Into new moments
Each tiny moment
A crystal seed
Will grow







Size DOES matter.

Living In Dark


Winter has a good side and one which is not so good.






Living In Dark  -  22 Sep 17

Winter came too soon
I feel the shadows
Crawling around me
Touching me
With a chill breath
Dark wraps a cold hand
Around me







This is the dark side.


Sunday 1 October 2017

Dreams Of Light


Observation again, illuminations from a streetlamp.





Dreams Of Light  -  21 Sep 17

Rainbows on the window
Spectra painted by
My breath
Words ephemeral
Dreams of light
Drawn from within me
As I speak







Interesting what can be seen if eyes are open.
