Tasting

.

Only stopping to taste the moment. 

. 

Tasting        -       30 Dec 22

I am 

Wherever 

Touching infinity 

Travelling through 

Feeling the waves 

Of everything 

Tasting 

I go 

. 

So much to see and taste. 

. 

Forever Tonight

.

Another thought on the special one. 

. 

Forever Tonight       -       29 Dec 22 

Tonight is forever 

When Love flows 

Passion tide keeps rising 

The world fades away 

Leaving only we 

. 

Nothing else matters. 

. 

Hers Forever

.

How the one special person took me. 

. 

Hers Forever          -       28 Dec 22 

She reached out 

Touched me 

Took my hand 

Took me 

I became 

Hers forever 

. 

Happy in that forever. 

. 

Time [Acrostic]

.

Finding the space everywhen. 

. 

Time [Acrostic]        -        27 Dec 22

Transmitting across space and 

Infinite time in the 

Multiverse 

Eternal thoughts of we 

. 

Time is always right, do it. 

. 

Patience

.

An eternity seems to pass while waiting. 

. 

Patience       -       26 Dec 22 

Waiting for something 

To happen 

Time passes and nothing 

Seems to change 

Seconds pass 

Minutes pass 

Testing my patience 

Then 

A shift 

The awaited change 

Happens 

. 

I won, I did not lose my cool. 

. 

Sea Of Dream

.

Weaving the best ones. 

. 

Sea Of Dream        -         25 Dec 22 

Floating in a sea of dream 

Ideas drift around me 

Choosing a few 

I wake to weave them 

Into my reality 

. 

How reality can be expanded. 

. 

Uncertainty

.

A state I often find myself puzzling within. 

. 

Uncertainty       -      24 Dec 22 

Uncertainty 

Where am I 

Where am I going 

Never knowing 

Where the world 

Is taking me 

Or where it is 

. 

Never certain. 

. 

Whisper

.

Always listening. 

. 

Whisper      -       23 Dec 22 

I remember listening 

To the whisper 

Of the sand 

As I walked along the beach 

I remember listening 

To the whisper 

Of the Moon 

As I dreamed in the night 

I remember listening 

To the whisper 

Of the Sun 

As he woke me gently 

. 

The whispers are always with me. 

. 

Hush

.

Surround yourself with quiet. 

. 

Hush      -      22 Dec 22 

A moment to be quiet 

The air is still 

Waiting in the hush 

For the secret words 

Which will open 

The minds of the world 

In the quiet 

I wait and listen 

. 

The words are a pleasant surprise. 

. 

Time Between

.

There is always a between state. 

. 

Time Between        -       21 Dec 22 

In the infinite time 

Between thoughts 

I wander and watch 

As the colours change 

And grow into 

Something different 

Then I see me there 

Watching me 

. 

Take the opportunity to observe yourself. 

. 

Earth Talk

.

Thought of an earthquake triggered this poem. 

. 

Earth Talk        -       20 Dec 22 

Earth talk 

Listen 

You are being told 

Something important 

Ignore it if you dare 

Your choice 

Do not blame others 

. 

Pay attention to the signs. 

. 

Capricious

.

Stories can be fun. 

. 

Capricious        -         19 Dec 22 

Listen to the rain 

His capricious games 

Give rise to some 

Intriguing stories 

Some of which 

Can be believed 

. 

Do not believe everything you hear. 

. 

Conversation

.

Looks like I am talking to myself but I know night is there listening. 

. 

Conversation      -       18 Dec 22 

Conversation with the night 

Darkness wraps us 

As we talk 

And discuss 

The ice 

Again 

. 

Always something new to talk about. 

. 

Ghost Of Summer

.

Sometimes I hear the music of Frost. 

. 

Ghost Of Summer       -       17 Dec 22 

Outside Jack Frost dances 

In the grass with the 

Ghost of Summer 

In the house 

Our lips dance together to 

The song of Love in our Hearts 

. 

I know where I would rather be. 

. 

Quiet

.

Peaceful way to be. 

. 

Quiet        -         16 Dec 22 

On my own 

I sit in the quiet 

Of midnight 

Waiting 

. 

Being alone is not lonely. 

. 

Kiss Of Frost

.

I can hear the frost crackling. 

. 

Kiss Of Frost        -        15 Dec 22 

Slow time 

Afternoon drift 

Carries the dream 

Into the evening 

The day curls up 

To stay warm 

As the kiss of frost 

Decorates the trees 

. 

Frost has a certain smell also. 

. 

Flowing [Haiku]

.

Not necessarily physically but always together. 

. 

Flowing        -        15 Dec 22

Feeling the flowing 

Of Love to me from the one 

I am always with

. 

The one special person. 

. 

Story

.

Depends on the story and how it develops. 

. 

Story         -         13 Dec 22

Where a story 

Suddenly becomes

Reality 

Do you ride with o

Or do you fight it 

Entirely your choice 

. 

Choose wisely. 

. 

Everywhere

.

Another observation. 

. 

Everywhere        -         12 Dec 22

Cold everywhere 

They have said 

With snow and ice 

Here just some ice 

People have to watch 

Where they put their feet 

. 

I am staying home. 

. 

Finding

.

One of the most difficult things.

. 

Finding        -        11 Dec 22

Finding things 

Which want to remain hidden 

Trying to persuade them

To return to the light 

When they do not want to move 

. 

A losing battle.

. 

Ship

.

Inspiration for this came from the hitchhikers guide to the galaxy, I want a thumb.

. 

Ship       -       10 Dec 22 

Watching the sky 

Waiting for the ship 

To take my friend

And I 

Off this world 

To travel afar 

. 

It might be dangerous but it has got to be interesting. 

. 

Bodies

.

Personal experience and observation. 

. 

Bodies       -       09 Dec 22

Bodies are funny things 

They sometimes 

Let you down 

Do not always do 

What you want 

And unexpectedly pain 

But are still Lovely 

. 

I shall not go into detail but two people are experiencing issues.

. 

Ripples

. 

Nothing stands still. 

. 

Ripples        -        07 Dec 22

Cascade

Ripples 

In the clear sky 

Movement 

Attracts my attention 

A repeating pattern 

Grows and cascades

Through my mind 

Creating ripples 

In my thoughts

. 

My mind is a good example of the movement. 

. 

Touches

.

Always touching. 

. 

Touches       -       07 Dec 22

The sky touches me

Wherever I go 

Wherever I am 

The song fills me 

. 

Never alone. 

. 

Lips

.

She knows how to dance. 

. 

Lips       -      07 Dec 22 

Moving slowly though the night 

With a song on our lips

Flying back to the Multiverse 

With the thoughts and dreams

Collected through all the years 

And the song fills all the missing sounds 

As our lips dance together 

. 

And may even teach me a few moves. 

. 

Certainty

.

A statement of fact about the one special person and me. 

. 

Certainty       -        05 Dec 22 

In the infinities

Of all our eternities 

There is one certainty 

We are always together 

. 

She knows. 

. 

Silent Music

.

Listening to the enchanting sounds. 

.

Silent Music       -       04 Dec 22

Wind passing 

Moving branches 

In a slow dance 

To the silent music 

Of the celestial orchestra

. 

It can be heard in the wind. 

. 

Everywhen

.

The Lovely feelings. 

. 

Everywhen       -       03 Dec 22

Feeling her everywhen 

Whatever I am doing 

I know she is with me 

Everywhere I go 

She is waiting for me 

. 

Thoughts on my one special person. 

. 

Wishful

. 

Remembering the soft beach sand and the unbroken snow cover on a field, not easy to choose between them.

. 

Wishful        -        02 Dec 22

Sun and sand 

Is it snow 

Difficult to tell 

Sometimes 

Wishful thinking 

Wanting warmth

Or beauty 

Both perhaps 

. 

Probably both. 

. 

Change

.

An exercise for the W. 

. 

Change      -      01 Dec 22 

Why do I stand here 

Waiting for the change 

When I have seen 

What little movement

Warps the perseption 

. 

I really enjoy playing with words. 

. 

Words On The Ground

.

Many years ago I did a sequence of poems and statements on the ground and watched the reactions of people as they passed, the most interesting was from a schoolboy who erased a couple of words with his shoe.

. 

Words On The Ground      -       30 Nov 22 

Chalk from a determined hand 

Scribed under cover of night 

Designed to inspire thought

Or just to provoke reaction 

Simple words on the ground

Often trigger a powerful reaction 

. 

I think most people liked what they saw. 

.
