Leaving Comfort

.

Getting outside the comfort zone. 

. 

Leaving Comfort        -        16 Jul 22

Leaving comfort behind 

I walked into the unknown 

Not knowing what I might find 

I only looked for the change

In the surroundings 

That indicate 

Where I might be 

I am still walking

I am still looking 

. 

I do not know when I will find the answer. 

. 

Stalking Warriors

.

Almost a dream state.

. 

Stalking Warriors        -       14 Jul 22

In the starstream 

Faces of the night 

Watch the opening moves

Of the game 

Shadowed by the

Stalking warriors 

In their own shadows 

The game has no rules 

No effect on the bystanders 

Who hardly even watch 

Or notice the plays

Or see who wins 

. 

Potentially a nightmare.

. 

Cascade [Acrostic]

.

I can hear it and see it too. 

. 

Cascade [Acrostic]        -        13 Jul 22

Cherished falls 

Above the lake 

Scintillating ripples

Causing rainbows 

Across watching eyes 

Dreaming in the 

Endless cascade 

. 

Quite an enchanting sight. 

. 

Forest Of Your Mind

.

This can be a difficult place to be within. 

. 

Forest Of Your Mind        -       12 Jul 22

Eyes watching me 

From the forest 

Of your mind 

I melting from 

One to another 

In my mind 

No escape from the 

Conflict 

Between minds 

In the forest 

. 

Quite scary too. 

. 

Moon Smile

.

Her smile is radiant. 

. 

Moon Smile       -       11 Jul 22

Waiting for the Moon to smile 

Hoping for the change

Of the night gathering 

Wind speaks in movement

The change is coming 

And the Moon in sleep 

Dreams the change 

The Moon smile is coming 

. 

She smiles infrequently but it is always worth watching her.

. 

Phantom Lover

.

Some phantoms are Lovely. 

. 

Phantom Lover        -        10 Jul 22

Dreams lap on the shore

Of my mind in the night 

Alone with the thoughts 

Of a phantom Lover 

She takes me somewhere 

Takes me into her

Beyond where reality 

Fades into somewhen

I swim with the dreams

Again under the forgiving Moon 

. 

And some are really special.

. 

Tears At Midnight

.

Tears do not last. 

. 

Tears At Midnight        -        09 Jul 22

Tears at midnight 

Are washed away

At dawn 

As the new day 

Opens new thought 

Of new Love 

.

Love is the unchanging.

. 

In A Moment

.

It only takes a moment. 

. 

In A Moment        -       08 Jul 22

In a moment

The fingers time

Reached out to me 

Gathered me into 

Times grasp 

To show me

The song of the the secret

Left the secret 

In my Heart 

With the song

Still lingering

Forever 

. 

Such a beautiful song. 

. 

Passion Fire

.

Warm or even hot. 

. 

Passion Fire       -       07 Jul 22 

Take my hand 

And lead me through 

The fire of our passion 

Warmth spreads 

Within as we feed it 

Take me on 

. 

I can be taken anywhere by the right person. 

. 

Soft Hands

.

The Lovliest dream. 

. 

Soft Hands       -       06 Jul 22

Soft hands touch me

Lift me 

Take me back 

Into the dream 

Which lives 

In the morning 

When others have faded 

And you take me 

To be with you 

In the dream 

. 

I really like this kind of dream. 

. 

Angel Voices

.

Something which can be heard when you listen. 

. 

Angel Voices        -        05 Jul 22

Angel voices 

Fill the air over the island 

Take me back 

To the time 

I was among them 

Awoke to the songs 

They sang 

Were they for me 

I was never certain 

But still I listen 

I listen 

. 

Gentle songs. 

. 

Feelings Treasures

.

Always worth feeling for the treasures. 

. 

Feelings Treasures       -       04 Jul 22

Feelings grow 

Treasures flow

They can be found

Waiting for the 

Questing mind 

To shake the dreaming 

Of the world 

And feel the treasures 

. 

They are there to be found. 

. 

Rose

.

Inspired by a new friend. 

. 

Rose       -       03 Jul 22

The unexpected rose 

Fire in the bramble 

Pale blush as

The secret unfolds 

Flag unfurled 

Dancing against the sky 

Echoes the rose 

Dancing against the green

. 

Always dancing. 

. 

Lace

.

Those forgotten dreams again. 

. 

Lace        -       02 Jul 22

Lace like gossamer

Holds the secrets 

Of the Moon 

Through eternity 

Allowing glimpses

Through the glass 

Of time 

Misted by the tears 

Of forgotten dreams 

. 

A glimpse can be a painful experience. 

. 

Lover Awaits

.

A dream can be a Lovely place. 

. 

Lover Awaits       -       01 Jul 22 

Close my eyes sweet sleep 

Take me to the dream 

My Lover awaits me 

I have heard her call 

Often through the day 

Now night whispers 

The soft spell and 

Song of Love 

To summon us 

To be together 

In our dream 

. 

Especially when the Lover is there with you.

. 

Kiss Of The Tide

.

Watched this many times over the millennia.

. 

Kiss Of The Tide       -       30 Jun 22

Waves speak 

From the waters edge 

As the kiss of the tide 

Melts the rock 

Claims it back 

To the sea 

. 

Eventually all will be the same. 

.
