Songs We Sang

.

Memories and songs are always with us.

. 

Songs We Sang    -    24 Nov 19 

In the days when darkness 

Held old memories 

Safe from the eyes of strangers 

There were songs we sang 

To remind us 

Where we had been 

What thoughts we still carry 

And in the songs 

We can go again 

. 

You can hear me singing softly. 

. 

Everything

.

Thoughts on the special person. 

. 

Everything     -    23 Nov 19 

Everything 

Reminds me of you 

Flowers 

The Multiverse 

Soft sweet kisses 

In my dreams 

. 

Really, everything. 

. 

Dream Me

.

A request to the special person. 

. 

Dream Me    -   22 Nov 19 

Dream me 

Hold me through the night 

Fill me with your Love 

Dream me 

Make me feel 

The flow of your Love 

Dream me 

Let me dream you now 

Take me into our dream 

. 

A Lovely place to be. 

. 

Again

.

The ever versions. 

. 

Again    -   21 Nov 19 

In the ever 

Where forever leaves 

Never standing alone 

The wheel turns again 

Brings me back to ever 

Where I can watch 

Forever 

Watching me in ever 

. 

Stretched reality with more than a hint of the surreal. 

. 

Touching My Thoughts

.

That Lovely connection. 

. 

Touching My Thoughts    -    20 Nov 19 

I always feel you 

Touching my thoughts 

In the moments 

When we do not need 

To talk but want to feel 

A Loving presence 

. 

More than talking, this is much deeper. 

. 

World

.

Always aware of you. 

. 

World     -    19 Nov 19 

I know your dreams 

I have heard you 

Taking in your secret 

World 

The world which 

Slips into another reality 

Blends with mine 

I hear you clearly 

Speaking in my secret 

World 

. 

The secret worlds so often overlap but are not recognised. 

. 

Ocean Sun

.

The voyages around the day. 

. 

Ocean Sun    -    17 Nov 19 

Sailing on the horizon 

Making way across the waves 

Setting slowly 

Ocean sun 

Takes the day with it 

Leaves the night 

For us to enjoy 

. 

Day and night wrapped with joy. 

. 

Wind Walker

.

I listen, I always listen. 

.

Wind Walker    -   16 Nov 19 

Across the hills 

Melancholy words 

Caress the wind 

But in that wind 

I hear the walker 

Singing softly 

A song of you 

. 

A beautiful song. 

. 

Dance

.

The dance has powerful energies, enough to create unexpected changes. 

. 

Dance    -    15 Nov 19 

The dance drew me in 

Stole my mind 

Snared my feet 

Grabbed my balance 

And took me somewhen else 

The dance left me 

Standing on a different floor 

Questioning 

Where when who 

I am or am I 

. 

Never forget to question. 

. 

Rain Singer

.

Listen to the songs. 

. 

Rain Singer    - 14 Nov 19 

The voice of the rain 

As it passes through the branches 

Memories awakened 

From the distant past 

Into the far future 

The singer remembers 

Tells the stories again 

. 

Listen to the stories. 

. 

Hail [Modern Haiku]

.

This grew from an early morning observation from my bedroom window. 

. 

Hail [Modern Haiku]    -    13 Nov 19

Full Moon hanging in the West 

And from a frozen sky 

Hail 

. 

The modern Haiku still has the three line format but is not constrained by the seventeen syllables structure. 

. 

Come Home

.

A request. 

. 

Come Home    -    12 Nov 19

Come home to me 

I have waited 

To hear a word 

Which tells me 

That you are 

On your way 

I have watched 

For a sign 

Which shows me 

That you have heard 

My call 

And will come back 

Come home to me 

. 

I will wait for as long as it takes. 

. 

Sweet Thoughts

.

Always listening to the sweet thoughts. 

. 

Sweet Thoughts    -   11 Nov 19 

I can hear your thoughts 

They whisper in my mind 

Telling me sweet things 

About what you want 

And where you want us 

To be 

I will go anywhere with you 

If I can always hear 

Your voice whispering 

Your sweet thoughts 

To me in my mind 

. 

Those special thoughts are Lovely. 

. 

Sun Song

.

A rhythm pattern for the song. 

. 

Sun Song    -    10 Nov 19 

Harmony 

Warm rhythm 

Enhances the song 

Rhythmic weaving 

Sun 

Dancing across 

A Summer sky 

. 

Watching the dance. 

. 

Breathing The Stars

.

Magic of the night, listen. 

. 

Breathing The Stars    -    09 Nov 19 

I watch the night 

Paint the sky with stars 

And I wait breathing 

In the darkness 

Dawn holds back 

To let the stars sing 

And I wait breathing 

. 

Have you listened to the stars? 

. 

Lost

.

In those interesting places where nothing is exactly what it seems. 

. 

Lost   -   08 Nov 19 

Across the expance 

Into other times 

Where worlds conflict 

With space and dimensions 

And all the while 

Thoughts are lost 

In the wistful ocean 

Amid forgotten dreams 

. 

The dreams can still be found... 

. 

Winter Thoughts

.

The cold season is only just beginning. 

. 

Winter Thoughts    -    07 Nov 19 

Days short 

Nights long and cold 

Chill thoughts 

Hold winter in mind 

Dreaming of the distant 

Spring warmth 

. 

Days are not long enough for the sun to warm them. 

. 

Explore The Mystery

.

Always willing to explore. 

. 

Explore The Mystery    -   06 Nov 19 

One night before the dawn 

She came to me 

Showed me the mystery 

Of who she is 

Invited me to explore 

As she opened 

Her mystery to me 

Showed me how 

To come in 

. 

Mysteries are to be explored. 

. 

Rain Tease

.

Inspired by actual events. 

. 

Rain Tease   -   05 Nov 19 

Waiting 

In the shadow of a shop 

For the shower to end 

Rain continues to 

Tease as it pretends to stop 

Leafy litter swept 

Down the hill 

Still it rains 

. 

How much more rain is there to come? 

. 

See Me

.

Watching the dance. 

. 

See Me    -   04 Nov 19 

Through a veil I watch 

The dancers of time 

Spinning weaving 

Shaping eternity 

To suit themselves 

The constant winds 

Shift the veil 

Allowing the dancers 

To see me in the shadows 

. 

Never hidden for long. 

. 

Song

.

This is exactly how I feel. 

. 

Song    -   03 Nov 19 

The song has been sung 

A hundred thousand times 

From the dawn 

Until the moment 

Of the end 

Each time 

The words take flight 

They are more empowered 

And gather the spirit 

Of the beginning 

When we listen 

To the song we hear 

The eternal words 

Taking us into the world 

Of the now 

. 

More times than I have ever been able to count. 

. 

Breathing You

.

I am fully aware of the beautiful essence of you.

. 

Breathing You    -    02 Nov 19

Essence of the Love you share 

Floating cloud incense dream 

You are all around me 

I am breathing you 

Filling my lungs 

Filling me 

. 

Thank you. 

. 

Touches

.

An invitation, should I follow? 

. 

Touches   -    01 Nov 19 

Phantasms circle in the night 

I hear voices 

Come up us 

Come to us 

We want to play 

Light touches 

A hint of mist 

From somewhere 

Strokes my neck 

Inviting persuading 

Insisting 

Come to us 

. 

Should I go? 

. 

Explore

.

About to set out on the journey. 

. 

Explore    -    31 Oct 19 

One hand on my Heart 

One hand on your Heart 

Ready to explore the infinity 

Of we 

One foot on the ground 

One foot in the stars 

Ready to explore the 

Multiverse 

. 

Feeling all the wonderful places. 

. 

Last Leaves

.

I was reminded of a photograph I took several years ago showing the last two leaves at the top of a tree. 

This poem was birthed by that memory. 

. 

Last Leaves    -    30 Oct 19 

Wind and rain 

Shake the trees 

Finally remove 

The last leaves 

From the dark branches 

Now naked they remain 

Till Spring again clothes 

The spidery forms 

Against the sky 

. 

In my memory I can still see the leaves. 

. 

Twilight Echoes [Haiku]

.

I enjoy Haiku, they are satisfying. 

. 

Twilight Echoes [Haiku]     - 27 Oct 19

Night remembering 

Light changing into darkness 

Echoes of twilight 

. 

They carry so many memories. 

. 

Breath Of A Kiss

.

I have felt those lips. 

. 

Breath Of A Kiss    -    29 Oct 19 

Her lips 

Almost insubstantial 

As they brushed mine 

In a Winter dream 

A secret sacred kiss 

Carried on her breath 

To marry with mine 

. 

Real kisses can be felt anywhere, all I have to do is be open. 

. 

Imagined Worlds

.

I have seen so many worlds. 

. 

Imagined Worlds    -     28 Oct 19 

I have seen times 

I have seen places 

Where the rains of Spring 

Caress my face 

As I watch the days 

Grow longer 

I wander the landscapes 

Through all the years 

Walking in my 

Imagined worlds 

. 

Perhaps you will see me out there somewhen. 

. 

Mists Of My Mind

.

This poem was birthed after a comment on a single line in an email to the special person in my life.

. 

Mists Of My Mind   -   28 Oct 19 

Emerging into the world 

Where I think I belong 

Though nothing is real 

Fiction takes over 

All I see is the void 

Where the tendrils of light 

Never reach 

I have seen the world 

Now I am 

Vanishing back into 

The mists of my mind 

. 

Interesting how a simple comment can give rise to a new stream of thought. 

. 

Twilight Echoes

.

A new Haiku today. 

. 

Twilight Echoes    -    27 Oct 19 

Night remembering 

Light changing into darkness 

Echoes of twilight 

. 

Echoes in the magical times. 

.
