Flowers In The Night

Another of the night thoughts.





Flowers In The Night -  25 Apr 18

Subtle perfume

Wafts around me

Conjuring images

Calling memories back

From an almost forgotten past

Flowers blossom

In darkness

Evoking secret thoughts

In the night

I can sometimes smell the flowers even when I am not outside.

Saving

Initially inspired by trying to prevent things from disappearing from one of my websites the focus transformed into this offering.





Saving  -  24 Apr 18

Feeling like a hoarder

I want to keep this

I want to keep that

Grabbing them all

To put them all

Into little boxes

I am saving them

For later

Still a valid thought.

Vampire

After an appointment...





Vampire  -  23 Apr 18

Not a traditionalist

Prefers a syringe

To fangs

...wondering whether I would enjoy the traditional method.

Gathering Flavours

The tongue knows what it likes.





Gathering Flavours  -  22 Apr 18

Gathering the tastes

From a thousand

Different places

A myriad things

Spices harvested

From worlds imagined

In lucid dream

Exquisite flavours

Come let us

Find them all

To enhance

Our worlds

You know thar.

Songs Of Distant Lands

A song with a science fiction flavour.





Songs Of Distant Lands  -  21 Apr 18

Far away Earth

Still calls me

Every night

As I prepare to sleep

Her songs

Still evoke

Strong memories

Of distant lands

Would that I could be

Back there again

Journeying somewhere.

Daze

Blurry, soft focus but always beautiful.





Daze  -  20 Apr 18

Days slip into each other

Making a kaleidoscope view

Of shifting patterns

One in another

Shifting

Leaving my mind

In a beautiful daze

A mosaic of realities.

Asking

Those whispers.





Asking  -  19 Apr 18

Requesting

Contact between worlds

Special places

I wish to visit

Heard them calling

In my dreams

Sometimes when

I awaken

The echoes still call

Asking me

To be there

Requesting my presence.

Tasting

A bit of a Lust song today.





Tasting  -  18 Apr 18

The wonderful flavours

That fill my awareness

They fill me

With every moment

I am tasting you

Lust songs are fun.

In The Morning

My days are shifted round and my night is in a different time to everyone else.





In The Morning  -  17 Apr 18

My usual time

Bed calls

Sleep beckons

Daylight whispers

Sleep well

In the morning

I sleep

It works for me.

Glass

Observations, self explanatory.





Glass  -  16 Apr 18

Mirrors

Showing images

Backwards

Telescope

Bringing things closer

Not really close

Spy glass looking glass

Fictions

See what I mean?

Dreamscape Walker

A little Love song written for someone really special.





Dreamscsape Walker  -  15 Apr 18

Walking

Hand in hand

Through

The dreamscape

Of my mind

She gave me permission to publish it here.

Watching The World

Wandering out to get some real water from the chute I was aware of many things.





Watching The World  -  14 Apr 15

Listening to the distant sounds

Birdsong from invisible singers

Watching the world

Through eyes which

Do not judge

Touching a flower gently

To experience the pleasure

Watching

Always watching

The flower was a magnolia.

Old Routines

A suggestion to examine established patterns.





Old Routines  -  13 Apr 18

Those old familiar places

Where you thought

You were comfortable

The little dæmons

Of doubt

Claim your thoughts

Make you uncertain

That your old routines

Really work any more

It is possible they do not serve you now.

Ready To Fly?

Be The Fool and take a step forward.





Ready To Fly?  -  13 Apr 18

Are you ready

To face the uncertain

Unknowns where all

Is possible

And the only certainty

Is uncertainty

Move forward and step

Into the unknown

Spread your wings

Watch the world change

Reaching to your change

Shifting to meet you

Make the Fool's song

Your very own

Open yourself to the special

Wonders that you can create

See the places you can go

Are you ready to fly?

The first card in the Major Arcana of the Tarot is The Fool.

Sea

Observations and memories.





Sea  -  12 Apr 18

Little glimpses

Between walls

Screened by trees

Fed by memories

Of days long past

The sea still fills me

Shows me

She still remembers me

On a walk through Penzance the memories flow back.

Imagination

Probably the finest tool the mind possesses.





Imagination  -  11 Apr 18

Testing the way

The mind works

Playing with ideas

Using the tool

Of the imagination

To experience

New things

In the comfort

Of the mind

Give it freedom to work to discover all kinds of Lovely things.

Messages

Messages can be found if eyes and ears are kept open.





Messages  -  10 Apr 18

Moments of awareness

Whispered voices

Offering little messages

Assisting the journey

Traveller through times

Looking for all the messages

Wherever they may arise

Usually a good idea to be prepared to act on them.

Journey

A journey of exploration.





Journey  -  09 Apr 18

Lifetimes wandering

Seeking for the hidden

Answers and secrets

That await in the journey

Unfolding the events

to experience the joy

Exploring is good.

With Open Eyes

Another Love song.





With Open Eyes  -  08 Apr 18

I watch the sun

Light the branches

Around you

My dream still growing

You fill me

I watch you as you smile

With open eyes

I see you

With open Heart

I feel you

Watching YOU.

You Know [Acrostic]

I Love the challenge of the acrostic format.





You Know [Acrostic]  -  07 Apr 18

Yesterday dreams become tomorrow reality

Observing the changes

Universe responds

Kinetic lighting

Negates the dark

Opens our minds to the

Wonders of otherwhen

I hope you enjoy reading them.

Falling

A variant on the Love song theme.





Falling  -  06 Apr 18

Deeper than I have ever been

I look down and see that I am flying

Falling into you

Catch me as I fly past

A Love song is always a Love song.

And Still They Dance

Watching the dance and joining in.





And Still They Dance  -  05 Apr 18

Endlessly circling

Round each other

Around the room

Around the starlit halls

Eternal ethereal music plays

And still they dance

Into infinity

Will you come with me?

Ages Past

Wishful thinking.





Ages Past  -  04 Apr 18

Waiting through all time

For things

To return to as they were

In ages past

Realising that

It will never happen

My mind still waits

Expectantly

Things never return quite how they were.

Night Play

Places for play.





Night Play  -  03 Apr 18

Night draws a veil

Around the day

Opens dreams

Lets them fly

From minds

Into the world

To experience

New ways for play

Maybe it will be good to join in.

In My Mind

You are always with me.





In My Mind  -  01 Apr 18

I open my eyes

Look at you

No matter how far away

You are

I can always see you

In my mind

Always in my thoughts.

In Between

This could be an observation or something deeper.





In Between  -  31 Mar 18

Between the day and the night

There are many places

Where I exist and dreams

Have my voice

Worlds carry me

Dreams hold me and speak

For me and sing the songs

Of my Soul

In between the moments

Time stands still

Allowing a clearer

Vision and I watch

What do you think?

Veil Of Night

Watching the Moon.





Veil Of Night  -  30 Mar 18

Through a pale veil

She watches

Her beauty cannot be hidden

Night enhances

Her appearance

I watch her fly

As she watches me

Even through a veil she is beautiful.

April

A poem inspired by a memory of listening to a song and by a memory of things past.





April  -  29 Mar 18

The song says

She will arrive in April

Announcing her presence

With a loud call

April

Come she will

The song of the cuckoo

Memory of a song by Simon and Garfunkel.

Naughty

A mild Lust song today.





Naughty  -  28 Mar 18

The thoughts

Which wander

Through my mind

Often have

A naughty flavour

I have to say

I enjoy them

Particularly

When a certain

Lovely person

Is involved

In them

Nothing wrong with Lust.
