Wordless

.

Silence is never present. 

. 

Wordless       -       30 Dec 21 

How to write a poem 

Without lyrics 

A song without words

It is never silent 

You are there to listen

Sing along with the Heart words 

. 

The words are there but not always visible.

. 

Drifts

.

Going with the flow.

. 

Drifts       -       26 Dec 21

Here I go again 

Dancing through the 

Drifts of my dreams 

Building the wishes 

Of the fantasies 

I wish I want 

Not knowing how 

It will go but 

Hoping always hoping 

. 

Best to live in hope. 

. 

Dream Flight

.

The dream flies. 

. 

Dream Flight       -      27 Dec 21 

The night was thick

With ancient dream

Disguised in a shawl

Of dusky blue 

The mermaid's hand 

Reached for the thought

In mine 

But came up empty 

Thought had already 

Been set free to fly

Into the dream 

Of a hidden different day 

. 

Always keep looking. 

. 

Present

.

Quite a fitting poem for the time of year. 

. 

Present       -       25 Dec 21

Woven with Love 

Given directly 

Into my Heart 

On a special day 

The present

Of Love 

. 

Special thoughts.

. 

Drifts

.

Always in the drifts. 

. 

Drifts      -     26 Dec 21

Here I go again 

Dancing through the

Drifts of my dreams 

Building the wishes 

Of the fantasies 

I wish I want 

Not knowing how 

It will go but 

Hoping always hoping 

. 

Building is a good way to start.

. 

Ball

.

A subtle game to raise expectations. 

. 

Ball       -      24 Dec 21 

You played with my Heart 

A soft ball thrown 

Into the sky 

You were with me 

As I soared 

. 

Playing with me. 

. 

Change World

.

Feeling the shift everywhere. 

. 

Change World        -       23 Dec 21

Land seems to move

In unpredictable ways 

Stability is not always 

Available

Occasionally legs and feet

Do not want to move 

The world will change

The way it wants 

We just have to 

Ride along

. 

Stability vanishes when it chooses. 

. 

Secret Garden

.

Inspired by the name of the musicians.

. 

Secret Garden       -       23 Dec 21 

In a secret garden 

When darkness falls 

The nightingale speaks 

To the Moon 

Charms the Spirit 

Of the day 

To join the eternal night 

In the endless flight

To the new dawn 

. 

The music speaks to me.

. 

In Daytimes Light

.

Loki is teasing me now. 

. 

In Daytimes Light       -     21 Dec 21

Light sometimes plays

Jokes and games 

Loki takes lessons 

In daytimes light 

Pretending that 

All is sweetness

And light 

. 

The games can sometimes be messy.

. 

Caressing

.

Always finding pleasure.

. 

Caressing       -       20 Dec 21

Slow gentle movements

Driving pleasure upward

Caressing 

Playing with the mind 

Playing with the body 

. 

Playing is fun.

. 

Listening To You

.

An important thing to do. 

. 

Listening To You        -      19 Dec 21

Your voice enchants me 

Endlessly singing to my Soul 

My Heart is always 

Listening to you

You have told me things

Of the world and beyond 

That nobody else can know 

Because only I listen 

Thank you for sharing 

The songs you sing 

And the Love you bring 

To me in the words you give 

. 

Pay attention to the words. 

. 

Happy [Acrostic]

.

A statement with smiles.

. 

Happy [Acrostic]       -       18 Dec 21

Having a deep relationship

And an harmonious one 

Pleasurable in the extreme and

Passionate too

Yes is the only answer 

. 

Naughty too, fun is it not? 

. 

Waiting For The Change

.

Patience while waiting.

. 

Waiting For The Change      -     17 Dec 21

Knowing that a shift 

Is about to happen 

Not knowing when 

Waiting for the change

Telling the mind

That patience is best

To allow peace 

. 

Otherwise frustration will grow and that is not good.

. 

Touching Dreams

.

Always connected and sharing.

. 

Touching Dreams         -        16 Dec 21

Feeling her with me 

Touching the dreams

She brings to me 

We share them 

Even when we are awake 

We know our Love feeds

The dreams 

Gives them life

. 

Sharing the dreams. 

. 

Once Kissed

.

The ways of a Spellweaver.

. 

Once Kissed        -       15 Dec 21

Once kissed 

Forever lost to her

She knows how 

To manipulate

And control the body 

And the mind 

To give and receive

Pleasure to the maximum 

.

She knows. 

. 

Broken Sleep

.

The pieces do not shine. 

. 

Broken Sleep       -        14 Dec 21 

Fragments 

Scattered shards 

Of the broken dreams 

That litter sleep 

And haunt the shadows 

Under the bed 

. 

Do not disturb them. 

. 

Forbidden Day

.

Those moments when you know something strange is happening.

. 

Forbidden Day        -       13 Dec 21

Rainy days

The fourth moment 

Of the forbidden day 

When light forgets 

To shine 

. 

Will the light return? 

. 

Azure

.

Short but that was how this poem grew.

. 

Azure        -       12 Dec 21 

Waiting for a wave 

Moon driven on 

An azure sea 

. 

It nearly became an Haiku.

. 

She Loves

.

Totally together. 

. 

She Loves         -        11 Dec 21 

Together always

Our thoughts flow 

In a single stream 

I Love her 

She Loves me 

Our stream carries us

Into infinity 

Together 

. 

Just what is. 

. 

Naturally

.

I do not need to think too hard about this, the answer is obvious. 

. 

Naturally        -        10 Dec 21 

There are so many ways 

To look at things 

And react to them

So many reactions 

But for me there is 

Only one way 

Where you are concerned 

Naturally I choose 

Where you go 

. 

No other way at all. 

. 

Some Days

.

Always worth looking. 

.

Some Days       -       09 Dec 21 

Always looking for something 

New and unusual 

Occasionally we find it 

Some days a surprise comes

We find something 

Something else even better 

. 

A pleasant surprise. 

. 

Afternoon Dreams

.

Always watching as the day changes.

. 

Afternoon Dreams       -       08 Dec 21 

Eyes open 

Watching the sun

Slide gracefully into the West 

Afternoon calls dreams 

Into wake 

Lets them feed 

On the images of the day 

And weave them 

Into the tapestry 

Of night

. 

Slumber entertainment. 

. 

Wind Driven

.

All these things have been happening recently. 

. 

Wind Driven        -       07 Dec 21

Soft 

Only felt as damp 

Wind pushes clouds

Against me 

Medium 

Rain makes everything

Wet and gets

Into my clothes 

Hard 

Sleet stings with every touch

Feels like it causes bruises 

Driven pain 

. 

The downside of a warmish winter.

. 

Sleep Talks

.

There is never any quiet.

. 

Sleep Talks        -        06 Dec 21 

In the night 

When all is still

The trees do not move 

No wind 

In sleep there is no quiet

It always talks 

Through the dreams 

Waking the mind 

. 

Often forced to listen.

. 

Ever In My Heart

.

Shyness perhaps or not certain how it will be received. 

. 

Ever In My Heart        -        05 Dec 21

You may never know 

How much you mean to me 

I have never found 

The words to tell you

Even though you are ever in my Heart 

I have to whisper the words 

Only in my thoughts 

. 

The special person does know. 

. 

Paradise

.

Another world, always in reach.

. 

Paradise        -        04 Dec 21

Farthest from here

A world which holds

An unlikely title

Somehow perfect 

Once seen 

We go to Paradise

We return home

Again 

. 

Always home. 

. 

Before The Dream

.

Rituals and pleasures. 

. 

Before The Dream        -        03 Dec 21 

Preparing to enter

We are ready 

But

Before the dream 

Can start

A ritual kiss 

Must be applied

To seal the closing day 

To allow us to be undisturbed

. 

Peace when Passion grows. 

. 

Unexpected Things

.

This poem grew into a modified Acrostic all by itself. 

. 

Unexpected Things        -        02 Dec 21

Unexpected 

Thoughts and touches

Helping hands 

In a friendly way

Never seeking thanks

Grateful for the assistance

Secret smile given 

. 

Thoughts on help I was given. 

. 

Things

.

We all have them, some more than others.

. 

Things        -        01 Dec 21 

Just a collection 

Of random things 

In my pocket 

Comforting memories 

To hold when necessary 

. 

They are warm too.

. 

Passion

.

Something that drives us all in so many different ways. 

. 

Passion         -         30 Nov 21 

Thinking 

About a very special person 

Remembering what we did together 

Raising our passion again 

Knowing it will never fade 

. 

Always good. 

. 

Alone With My Thoughts

.

Keep out of the way. 

. 

Alone With My Thoughts          -       29 Nov 21 

Sometimes the only way 

To allow free flow

Is to be alone 

Let my thoughts 

Wander by themselves 

With the flow unimpeded 

By any outside influence 

And let them dance and fly 

. 

Only when alone. 

. 

Light

.

Short days again. 

. 

Light        -        28 Nov 21

Longing for the days gone by 

When the world was not filled 

With the darkness 

Light could be found everywhere 

Still see it when my eyes are closed 

Against the dark 

. 

Too dark too often. 

. 

Temptation

.

Encouraging to go further. 

. 

Temptation         -        27 Nov 21 

Drawn into a wicked space

Offered things which please

The senses 

Leading into temptation

Difficult to resist 

Pleasure is its own reward 

. 

Coming with me? 

. 

Ice From The Sky

.

Quite a lot of this is happening recently. 

. 

Ice From The Sky         -       26 Nov 21

Pretending to be an hard shower

Sleet rattles against

My windows 

Noise wakes me 

At random times 

Unwanted ice from the sky

Disrupts my peace 

. 

Cold too.

. 

Walking Through The Dreams

.

Tasting them again. 

. 

Walking Through The Dreams       -       25 Nov 21 

Freshly woven

Sweetly fragranced 

Never binding 

I am walking through 

The dreams of my life

Experiencing them 

Once again with pleasure 

. 

Sometimes looking back gives great pleasure. 

. 

Celebrating Night

.

One of those odd little poems.

. 

Celebrating Night         -        24 Nov 21 

Crisp dark now 

Soft evening fades 

Night takes control

Celebrating victory 

Over the sun filled day 

. 

I think it was a tie, not a win. 

. 

Time Remembers

.

Time holds a lot of secrets.

. 

Time Remembers        -        23 Nov 21 

Thought carries feelings 

Across immeasurable distances 

But only time remembers 

What was said 

Between the Souls 

In the secret places 

The Heart creates

For them 

. 

The mind and body can ask time to tell. 

. 

Dreaming We

.

If we cannot be together in fact then dreaming is good.

.

Dreaming We       -       22 Nov 21 

The images of Love 

And lust 

Still fill the night

As I am dreaming we 

Together in thought 

If not in fact

We are always together 

. 

Dreaming is good. 

. 

Before The Winter

.

How it feels now, wondering what Winter has in store.

. 

Before The Winter        -        21 Nov 21

Getting a taste 

Of what might be 

To come 

Before the Winter arrives

The temperature drops 

Feels like

Below freezing 

Discomfort 

Waiting for the ice

. 

Clear nights do not help.

. 

Tides Of Thought

.

Whether I stand by the water's edge in fact or in dream I see the tide.

. 

Tides Of Thought      -       20 Nov 21 

Ebb and flow

Words intermingle

Form clumps and islands

In the tides 

Of thought washed 

Washed continually

By the dream of the Moon

As I watch the eternal dance 

. 

My vantage point has no bearing on the dance.

. 

Questioning Why

.

Continually thinking this way lays the seeds of paranoia.

. 

Questioning Why       -       19 Nov 21

Unexpected things 

Happen when least prepared

Often due to events 

From sources which are

Beyond control 

Questioning why they should 

Affect me personally

. 

I never know.

. 

Love Letters

.

The written words can often say more than spoken words.

. 

Love Letters       -       18 Nov 21 

Sometimes the only way

To convey the depth 

Of feeling is to write it out

Let it fill the page

With all the thoughts

Love letters say more 

And tell a deeper truth 

. 

Sometimes it is not possible to talk.

. 

Jasmine

.

Interesting how thoughts can sometimes wander back when least expected. 

. 

Jasmine        -        17 Nov 21 

The person or the flower

Both beautiful both enchanting

In their own separate ways

Each has left a memory

A thought within me

Neither can be recalled

To me 

. 

Each thought is unique and lives on. 

. 

Outside The Walls

.

The light of winter groes dim.

. 

Outside The Walls        -        16 Nov 21

Fog and rain fill the skies

Outside the walls of the castle 

Within a sad fire fails to warm 

And barely lights the hall

Dark days have come 

And joy has left again 

. 

Inspired by local weather. 

. 

Nothing Day

.

The year seems filled with days like this.

. 

Nothing Day        -        15 Nov 21 

Grey sky 

No sun no blue

Wind not blowing 

Birds are silent 

This is a nothing day

When nothing happens 

. 

There is no inspiration to fill the day with sound. 

. 

Ever

.

An old memory which no longer has a value. 

. 

Ever         -        14 Nov 21 

There 

In my mind 

Is a remnant of something

Special which occupied my thoughts 

For a long time years ago 

No longer will it ever torment me 

With invalid thoughts 

I put it aside 

. 

Some things can sit in the thoughts but have no validity.

. 

The Gates Of Time

.

The entrance to eternity. 

. 

The Gates Of Time        -        13 Nov 21 

Always freely moving

Never locked

Free passage from 

Then to when and

All times between

The gates of time 

Welcome the travellers 

Whenever they go 

. 

Gates I have been through often.

. 

Leaving Memories

 .

Random colours everywhere.

 

 

 

 

.

 Leaving Memories         -        12 Nov 21

Confetti of the past

Each piece a fragment

Recalling a part

Of a mosaic

Multicoloured

Many moods

Tiles of wind blown pieces

Leaving memories

Everywhere

.

They rival autumn leaves.

.

Seeing More

.

Be aware of your surroundings. 

. 

Seeing More        -       11 Nov 21

On a dusty road 

Nothing is clear 

Even the footprints

Are blurred 

A careful eye 

Is seeing more 

And the secrets

Of the journey

Are revealed 

. 

And you shall see. 

. 

A Day

.

Watch for the moment.

. 

A Day         - 10 Nov 21 

A moment when 

Eternity is seen 

In profile against a day 

And 

Now 

Fades into the background

That moment fills everything

And now is everywhen

. 

That moment will surprise you. 

. 

Calling The Dream

.

The dream responds well to a quiet voice. 

. 

Calling The Dream        -       09 Nov 21

Across the endless lands

A lone figure flies

Though nights and days

In silence 

Listening for the quiet voice 

Calling the dream

To him 

The voice of Love 

. 

I try to call softly.

. 

Desire

.

A rather intense thought. 

. 

Desire       -       08 Nov 21 

I want 

You 

I desire 

You 

I want you in my life 

Constantly 

. 

Am I asking too much? 

. 

Others

.

Feels a bit like politics. 

. 

Others        -       07 Nov 21 

Things 

Ask for choices to be made 

Things 

Say there is only me 

Things 

Insist that there is only one choice

But there are many 

Others 

. 

Really feels like a certain political party at election time. 

. 

More Of You

.

I think everybody thinks this way.

. 

More Of You       -      06 Nov 21

I never feel that 

I am getting enough 

I do not know 

If I am just being greedy 

Or if there is something else

But I do know that 

I want more of you

. 

Nothing new about that. 

. 

Between Errors

.

Interesting how a poem can be birthed by things not going as planned.

. 

Between Errors        -        05 Nov 21

Problems happening 

Serial situations

Pilling up against each other

I am pleased that 

Between errors 

Things seem to be 

Running smoothly 

. 

So pleased that it is over now. 

. 

In The Arms

.

The best place to be. 

. 

In The Arms        -        04 Nov 21

Fate has a long reach

But Love is more gentle 

I know that I would 

Rather be

In the arms of Love 

Always

. 

Is there any contest? 

. 

Otherness

.

A stranger here. 

. 

Otherness        -       03 Nov 21

Somewhere there is a place

Where I am welcome

I am still looking 

I am infused with 

A different energy

My otherness does not 

Permit me to stay 

So I am still looking 

. 

There is a place. 

. 

Remembering

.

Sometimes they can be embarrassing. 

. 

Remembering       -       02 Nov 21 

Those little things 

Held in mind 

For another day

Sometimes come out 

To play 

Unbidden 

Involuntary remembering 

Unwanted

Hoping they will go

Back to sleep 

. 

These things will not do as they are asked.

. 

And Then The Night

.

Sometimes dreams sometimes more.

. 

And Then The Night      -      01 Nov 21

A slow gentle day 

Quiet and peaceful 

Nothing unexpected

Evening came quietly

Slowly draining light 

From the day 

And then the night 

Wrapped its tendrils

Around the land

Scattered dreams 

Into the homes 

To see how they would grow

. 

Hope you do not see the something more.

. 

Remembered Moons

.

Suddenly drawn out of a dim past the inspiration for this poem comes.

. 

Remembered Moons        -       31 Oct 21 

In the nearly forgotten 

Shadows of a late evening

Walking beside a full Moon 

Just rising 

A dream of a day gone 

Remembered moons

Recall the Magicks

To colour the memories 

. 

I can see that full Moon rising. 

. 

Questions Left Unanswered

.

They are so frustrating. 

. 

Questions Left Unanswered          -        30 Oct 21

The unexpected things 

Still lurking in the dark 

Often spring out

To confront and disturb 

With the questions

Which are left unanswered

Despite being probed 

Repeatedly 

. 

It is often the things which are not answered that are the most disturbing.

. 

Other Things

.

Wondering if it would get worse.

. 

Other Things        -        29 Oct 21 

Expectation of ease 

Unfulfilled because

Of the way that

Other things interfere

With smooth movement

Causing havoc

. 

Wondering if it would improve.

. 

Grey Rain

.

Just an observation. 

. 

Grey Rain        -        28 Oct 21

The world and the sky 

Share the same colour

Blended by the veil

Drawn between them

Shapeless merging 

Of the grey rain

. 

Cannot tell where one ends and the other begins.

. 

Messages

.

Secret words only for someone special.

. 

Messages        -        27 Oct 21 

Secret missives shared 

Little notes left in places 

Unknown to others 

To be found only by 

The intended recipient 

Messages of Love 

Only for the Two Lovers 

. 

Safer than using a go-between. 

. 

Threads Of Time

.

Always unreal.

. 

Threads Of Time       -      26 Oct 21 

The tapestry is formed 

Layers of images 

Colours shape an 

Imagined reality

Woven from the 

Threads of time

Resting against 

An unreal wall 

As a phantom wind 

Blows through the dream forest 

. 

Is anything real? 

. 

Confusion

.

Recently this has been my fate. 

. 

Confusion       -      25 Oct 21 

Conflicting thoughts and words

Streaming into my mind 

They do nothing but raise

Confusion

So I do not know which way 

I should turn or where I should go 

No one to ask for assistance 

. 

Luckily it did not last long.

. 

In The Memory Of Day

.

Trying hard to bring some order to the thoughts.

. 

In The Memory Of Day       -       24 Oct 21 

Confused imaginings

Torture the mind 

Bringing up new thoughts 

Distort the assumed reality

In the memory of day

Talking again to nobody

Outside the memories 

. 

Can the thoughts be untied? 

. 

Silence Shared

.

The peace of sunset.

. 

Silence Shared        -       23 Oct 21

Sitting 

Watching the sunset 

Together

Enjoying the last rays

Of the sun 

In the silence shared

In our Love 

. 

Arms around each other, just watching. 

. 

Dark

.

Sweaters are not enough. 

. 

Dark       -       22 Oct 21 

Not just the night 

Not just the time of year

Now the sun is hidden 

Behind thick cloud blankets

It is cold as well 

The world is dark 

Shivering 

. 

Global warming?   Not here.

. 

Waiting For You

.

Blissful company expected. 

. 

Waiting For You        -        21 Oct 21

A story told 

On a windy rainy night

When trees creak 

As they sway in the wind 

The story fills the time

As I am sitting 

Waiting for you 

To come and comfort me 

. 

Am I just being greedy?

. 

Even The Dark

.

Power from within.

. 

Even The Dark        -       20 Oct 21

I have witnessed 

The power you hold 

The way you have taken 

My Heart 

Filled it with your Love

The world is in awe 

Even the Dark is frightened

Of your Light 

. 

What else can I say? 

. 

Whispers In The Night

.

The whispers cannot be ignored. 

. 

Whispers In The Night        -       19 Oct 21

Hear the soft voices

Calling 

Names are known to 

Them 

The whispers in the night 

Seem to know them all 

. 

What else do they know? 

. 

Asking

.

If I do not ask I will never receive.

. 

Asking      -      18 Oct 21 

I want the energy you share

Always bright and powerful

Brings light into my life

And joy into my Heart 

Asking you for you 

. 

Happy to live in your light.

. 

Feeling Around

.

I can only find me by touch. 

. 

Feeling Around        -       17 Oct 21

Lost and out of place 

The only way I could find me

Was by feeling around 

Blindly groping in the dark

Of my mind 

. 

Not even certain if a torch would help.

. 

Silence

 .

Sometimes the best place.

 

 

 

 .

Silence       -      16 Oct 21

 

 Wind accentuates

The absence of sound

My Heart resounds in

The silence of my head

I do not know

Where the noise has gone

I am pleased

I can think again

. 

Silence is good.

.

 

Water [Acrostic]

.

Trying to find where I am. 

. 

Water [Acrostic]        -       15 Oct 21

Walking across the sands 

Along a desolate shore

The water beside me is

Eternallly mimicking the thoughts

Resounding through my head 

. 

First Acrostic for a while. 

. 

In The Hands Of Dream

.

She knew how to transport me away from the mundane to the Magical. 

. 

In The Hands Of Dream       -      14 Oct 21 

She dreamed me

Took me to places 

I never knew 

Carried me to her Heart 

In the hands of dream

. 

A Lovely way to travel. 

. 

Little Wishes

.

Always best to start small. 

. 

Little Wishes       -      13 Oct 21 

Always building on them 

Little by little

Wishes grow as they form

It is the way

All wishes can show 

What they can do 

. 

The seeds will always grow.

. 

Autumn Soliloquy

.

Something I do so much. 

. 

Autumn Soliloquy      -      12 Oct 21

Talking with myself again 

Thoughts breaking through 

Causing my thoughts to wander

Drive me into new patterns

Conversation with me 

Can anyone hear me 

Or do I just speak on

Into my head 

As usual 

. 

The conversations can be very long and involved.

. 

Sweet Memories

.

Those times and thoughts are always with me. 

. 

Sweet Memories        -        11 Oct 21

Gentle breeze and warm sunshine

The sweet memories flow again

Taking me back to where 

She first entered my life 

I gather them up to savour the thoughts 

And I am in that time-stream again 

. 

A Lovely stream. 

. 

Morning

.

A memory of what I have seen.

. 

Morning       -        10 Oct 21

The dark fractures

Into a myriad pieces

As the first glimmering

Of morning touches it

Driving night back into 

The places where it hides 

. 

The hiding places of night can still be found.

. 

Fairy Tale

.

There is a portal near you.

. 

Fairy Tale      -       09 Oct 21

Tales 

Always enticing 

Setting up a whole 

New universe 

The entrance is 

Always available 

From the portals 

Throughout the Multiverse 

Fairy and dragon 

Can be found 

And discovered 

. 

Some of my best friends. 

. 

Walking Through The World [Haiku]

.

This Haiku was unexpected. 

. 

Walking Through The World [Haiku]      -     08 Oct 21

Watching out for things 

Unexpected visions are 

Walking through the world

. 

It works though.

. 

Listening

.

Prey. 

. 

Listening       -        07 Oct 21 

Focused

Attention alert 

Not wavering 

Watching with the ears 

Listening for a movement 

. 

The hunter is patient. 

. 

In Dream

.

This is the time when things become clear.

. 

In Dream       -       06 Oct 21 

Night visions abound 

New worlds open 

The only time it can be 

Clearly seen is when we are

In dream

And distractions are at a minimum 

. 

So many wonderful things to discover. 

. 

Colours Of Night

.

What do you see? 

. 

Colours Of Night      -     05 Oct 21 

Eyes closed against the dark 

Seeing still 

In the space between 

My thoughts 

I see the colours

Of night

Reflected in the ocean

Of dream

And I dream me 

. 

What do you dream? 

. 

In Shadow

.

See what really is. 

. 

In Shadow       -        04 Oct 21 

Daytime tells lies 

Pretends that 

All is in light 

The fact is that 

The world is in shadow

All the clouds are a mirage 

Of reality 

. 

Can you believe anything you see?

. 

Dragon Watch

.

There can be no escape. 

. 

Dragon Watch        -       03 Oct 21

Feet sidle around 

Under cover of shadows 

Hoping to remain undetected 

They are always visible 

To the special eyes 

Trained to see

None can escape 

The eyes of 

The Dragon Watch

. 

They would be useful on Earth. 

. 

In The Garden Of You

.

Eternity is a wonderful place to share with you. 

. 

In The Garden Of You       -      02 Oct 21 

The flowers hold 

Your perfume

The colours of your 

Summer 

I am content to spend

Eternity in the garden

Of you 

. 

The garden is paradise. 

. 

Sleep Welcomes Me

.

A Lovely place to be. 

. 

Sleep Welcomes Me        -         01 Oct 21

Cocooned in a warm

Soft bed

Waves of gentle sleep 

Flow around me

The spirit of sleep

Welcomes me to

Her palace

Invites me deeper

I stay 

. 

Best place ever. 

. 

Tomorrow's End

.

The indications are all around.

. 

Tomorrow's End       -      30 Sep 21

Signposts have shown 

The way 

Indicating the end 

Of tomorrow's dream 

Now the gaze

Has to be shifted

To another dream 

Will it grow

. 

Do you pay attention to the signs? 

. 

We Think

.

Long awaited.

. 

We Think      -      29 Sep 21 

We have watched 

For a very long time 

We think you may be ready

For transitioning

Into a higher level 

Are you ready 

. 

Guides and guardians are always watching. 

. 

Again

.

Too much rain recently. 

. 

Again        -       27 Sep 21

Again 

Rain beats on my walls

Incessantly 

Drumbeats of watery sadness

Again 

Tales of the distant sea 

Are carried to me 

I have heard them

Too often 

. 

Hoping for a little silence somewhen soon. 

. 

My Time

.

We all deserve some me time, this belongs to me. 

. 

My Time        -        28 Sep 21

In an arbour 

I sit and rest 

After all I have done 

I feel I want to rest 

Take a bit of my time 

And see myself 

As I want to see me 

.

And when I am ready...

. 

Sharing Dreams

.

One of the best things about lying down and closing your eyes. 

. 

Sharing Dreams       -       26 Sep 21 

Eyes closed 

Holding a special thought 

She is with me again 

Sharing dreams 

As we journey 

To wonderful places 

Together 

. 

We have been to so many places this way. 

. 

Summer Gone

.

An observation of what is happening here.

. 

Summer Gone       -       25 Sep 21 

Days getting shorter 

Warmth has leaked

From the sky 

Leaving a chill grey 

Behind 

The sun is hidden again 

Summer gone 

All waiting for the return 

. 

Come back summer.

. 

Darkening

.

Rumours can do this too. 

. 

Darkening       -      24 Sep 21

A shift in thoughts 

Gives rise to unwanted things 

Imposed

Never chosen 

New darkening of the world 

Driving light back 

. 

Uncertain as to whether I read something or just imagined it. 

. 

Questioning

.

We all have this. 

. 

Questioning       -       23 Sep 21

Those little niggling thoughts

That gnaw at the mind

Teasing and questioning 

The edges of sanity 

Tempests blow them deeper

There they can grow and breed 

. 

A nightmare in "T".

. 

I Wish

.

How the mind wanders into forgotten places. 

. 

I Wish       -      22 Sep 21

It sounds like a

Postcard cliché

Weather is Lovely 

Having a good time 

I wish you were here 

I do really wish you were here

I miss you 

. 

The French say it best, TU ME MANQUE. 

. 

September Dreams

.

That time of year again.

. 

September Dreams       -       21 Sep 21 

Equinox slides past 

Leaving an open space

In my thoughts 

I fill it with dreams 

September shapes 

The coming Winter 

Fills it with

September dreams 

. 

Some of the best dreams. 

. 

Watching The World

.

Who is watching whom? 

. 

Watching The World       -      20 Sep 21 

Eyes 

In unexpected places 

Often never noticed 

Until a subtle change 

Is seen

My eyes 

Veiled until I look

Then I am seeing 

Watching the world 

Watching me 

. 

See for yourself.

. 

Fallen

.

Autumn is touching the trees. 

. 

Fallen       -      19 Sep 21 

Never feeling the wind

Any more

The leaves have 

Already fallen 

Earth will soon

Claim them 

. 

Sycamore leaves are littering the paths.

. 

Recollected Memories

.

Usually the things brought to the surface are pleasant but occasionally things are not invited. 

. 

Recollected Memories       -       18 Sep 21 

From long ago 

Memories surface 

I am not certain 

That I want to see them 

Again 

Painful damaging 

Some just embarrassing 

And a few destructive

Mixed in with the pleasant 

Recollected memories 

Not always good

. 

Trying to filter out the unwanted memories. 

. 

In Night's Shadow

.

Disturbing precursor to a nightmare.

. 

In Night's Shadow      -      17 Sep 21 

Darkness gathers 

Sickness in the sky 

As clouds extinguish stars

One at a time 

Swirling 

Black 

In night's shadow 

The mares congregate

To reap the unguarded dreams 

. 

Leave a light on. 

. 

She Smiled

.

Someone I know.

. 

She Smiled       -       16 Sep 21 

Cloud breaks 

The sun shines

Brightly

Her face 

So much more 

She smiled 

No more cloud 

. 

Warm and bright, a beautiful smile.

. 

Finding

.

What you find when you look. 

. 

Finding       -      15 Sep 21 

It has been a very long time 

But now I am finding

Who I really am 

With assistance from 

A trusted person 

Whom I could never be without 

. 

We are together. 

. 

When I Want

.

Always there with me. 

. 

When I Want       -       14 Sep 21 

In all the days 

And nights

When I want 

To see you 

You are there

With me 

. 

Never apart. 

. 

In Time

.

Probably not worth the effort. 

. 

In Time       -      13 Sep 21 

Feeling the differences 

In the world 

As the moments 

Slip by 

In time it will be possible 

To change time 

Is it worth it though 

. 

I do not think so. 

. 

Memories

.

Always remember to look at the big picture of your life.

. 

Memories      -     12 Sep 21 

At the time

They may seem 

Insignificant

Looking back 

They form a tapestry 

Of interwoven strands 

The memories which

Illustrate life

. 

The grand picture. 

. 

I Dream You

.

A dream is second best compared to reality. 

. 

I Dream You        -      11 Sep 21

Closing my eyes 

Immediately the dream begins 

You join me 

We are together 

Again and always

You and I in our dream 

I dream we 

. 

She and I are always together. 

. 

Searching

.

It is always suggested that we should look within.

. 

Searching       -       10 Sep 21 

I have watched 

So many people 

Searching 

For happiness 

Even though it only 

Comes from within

They hold the keys 

To their own futures

But still they search 

. 

Happiness comes from within.

. 

Where Do I Go

.

I know now but this was an important thing to think about. 

. 

Where Do I Go      -      09 Sep 21 

When I wish to escape 

With you 

What special routes 

Do I choose 

Is there somewhere 

We can go together

Where do I go 

To find it 

And you 

. 

When these routes are found the results are magical.

. 

Weather

.

It is also a mood-changer. 

.

Weather      -      08 Sep 21 

In the same way

Changeable 

People around me

Reflect the way 

Weather behaves

One moment 

Warm and friendly

Then a storm burns 

.

Be cautious. 

. 

Ever Hopeful

.

Calling to a Loved one. 

.

Ever Hopeful       -       07 Sep 21 

My thoughts

Always with you 

Drawing you closer

Ever hopeful that 

You can hear me

Calling your name 

In our dream

Waiting for you 

To be with me

.

One of the reasons we have dreams. 

. 

Wipe My Tears

.

A request for assistance. 

.

Wipe My Tears       -       06 Sep 21 

Wipe my tears

With your kisses 

When I feel sad

.

W today. 

. 

Stones

.

Different things have different powers. 

.

Stones      -     05 Sep 21 

Strength

Stones are an anchor 

Spirit safety

Some crystals allow freedom 

Soar with them

.

A theme of the S. 

. 

Before Dawn

.

Listening to the fading whispers. 

.

Before Dawn       -      04 Sep 21 

Waiting for the first light

The whispers from the night 

Still around

Fading slowly as the sky 

Begins to pale

Before dawn can open and 

Wake the day

.

A kind of pre-dawn chorus.

. 

Looking In Between

.

Sometimes a message can be hidden in plain sight. 

.

Looking In Between       -       03 Sep 21 

Reading between the lines

Trying to find the 

Hidden message

Looking carefully 

In between the words

To see what I am being told 

.

The message is there, I just have to see it. 

. 

Dreaming You

.

I do not even need to close my eyes. 

.

Dreaming You      -      02 Sep 21 

I never need to be asleep

Because wherever I am 

And whatever I am doing

I am always dreaming you 

.

A very pleasant distraction. 

. 

Wherever

.

Free spirit. 

.

Wherever      -     01 Sep 21 

I am a wanderer

Free-rooted 

Never bound to one place

Wherever I find myself 

I am home

.

I am not a wanderer but I travel in my mind. 

. 

I Want To Be

.

Just a thought about the one special person. 

.

I Want To Be      -      31 Aug 21 

Wherever you are

In your arms 

Feeling your warmth

I am not asking much

A simple request 

Because I Love you

.

Just the thought makes me happy. 

. 

Time Thread

.

Seeing the stories laid out to be viewed. 

.

Time Thread      -     30 Aug 21 

Feeling the weave

The thread pulled taut 

Holding the pattern

Of the histories 

Scattered through time

A tapestry of tales 

.

Can you find your tale? 

. 

Memories Of A River

.

Warm days on the Serpentine many years ago. 

.

Memories Of A River      -      29 Aug 21 

Flowing through me

Days spent slowly rowing 

On the river

Memories always with me

Of the slow days 

.

They were good times. 

. 

Sharing

.

With Love, the only way. 

.

Sharing      -      28 Aug 21 

Space

Place 

Touches

Desires 

All the things

We want 

Can be found

By sharing 

.

What you give, returns.  Share often. 

. 

Touched

.

The gentle hands of Soul. 

.

Touched       -       27 Aug 21 

Calming waves flow

Through my mind 

Caress the fringes

Of my thoughts 

Touched by the warmth

Relaxed into the night 

.

A gentle way to go to sleep. 

. 

Wish

.

Getting a desired result is often difficult. 

.

Wish       -      26 Aug 21 

I have asked

In many different ways 

I have even pleaded

Now the time has come 

For me to use the one

Final thing I have 

In my possession

Given to me by 

A travelling wise woman

As she told me 

Only to be used

As a final resort 

The Wish Stone

.

Always listen to what the Wise ones say, they know. 

. 

Over

.

Slippery touch is always there. 

.

Over       -      25 Aug 21

Temptation

Is always present 

A dangerous lure

So very difficult 

To get over

Temptation is hard 

To ignore

.

I have been led astray quite often. 

. 

Finding New

.

Always trying to find a little spice to add to life. 

.

Finding New       -       24 Aug 21 

Tired of seeing

The same things 

Almost every day

I am going on a quest

In the hope 

Of finding new things

To bring a little interest

To my everyday life 

My other life is special

.

No, I am not telling you what is in my other life. 

. 

Thoughts Open Me

.

Always looking for new ways, they may not be easy but are satisfying. 

.

Thoughts Open Me       -   23 Aug 21 

Special ways of allowing

Only the focused 

Thoughts permit access

Open the way to the flow 

Me

I want to flow easily 

See you out there

.

Always satisfying. 

. 

Secrets

I have a few, most are harmless.

.

Secrets      -     22 Aug 21 

We all have them

Some are small insignificant 

Some are potentially damaging

Secrets can be fun 

Others should not be permitted

To escape from the confines 

Of a single mind

Ever

.

Can you keep a secret?  So can I. 

. 

Moments

.

A Lovely place to be. 

.

Moments       -       21 Aug 21 

Those intimate moments

When the world melts 

In the flow of passion

The moments become ages 

In the warmth of Love

.

I could spend all the eternities there. 

. 

In The Valley

.

I have seen invited. 

.

In The Valley      -     20 Aug 21 

Secret places

In the valley 

Where dragons

Can remain hidden 

From the view

Of curious people 

Dragons do not like

To be watched 

By those they do not

Invite 

.

To watch them play is a privilege granted only to a few. 

. 

Offering

.

I will not say who this was, in case of an haunting. 

.

Offering      -     19 Aug 21 

Someone I used to know

Before she moved on 

Had two styles of cooking

Under done 

Or burnt offering

.

Under done tended to be the normal but just occasionally.. 

. 

Note

.

I wonder what I would do if I found something like this. 

.

Note       -       18 Aug 21 

A little piece of paper

Found in a book 

An invitation to a

Clandestine meeting 

On the paper a few words

Bring this note with you 

To prove you really found it

Then we shall 

.

The dangling suggestion is quite interesting. 

. 

Forgotten Sun

.

Too frequently these are the days here. 

.

Forgotten Sun      -      17 Aug 21 

Looking up

What can be seen 

Grey

The forgotten Sun 

Tries to wake memories

Without success 

Days continue grey

.

Memories refuse to be awakened. 

. 

Eternal

.

The kind of place we all need. 

.

Eternal       -       16 Aug 21 

We have a special place

Far from the cares 

Of the world

Where none can disturb us

In the eternal day 

It is the best place to be

To have our peace 

.

I would invite you but you have your own space. 

. 

Lost In My Mind

.

I may be able. 

.

Lost In My Mind        -       15 Aug 21 

I can feel you

Wandering 

Searching through

Nameless forests

Sometimes confuse me 

I know how you can be

Lost in my mind 

I can lead you out

If you want 

I think...

.

Trackless lands, very confusing. 

. 

Looking

.

Everything moves, however slowly it might appear. 

.

Looking      -     14 Aug 21 

Through a window

I watch slow movements 

As the trees grow

Flowers open and close 

Greeting the sun

For a sign I am looking 

Which will give meaning

To the other movements 

That distract me

.

Those movements can tell a story, if you are prepared to watch.

. 

Fyre Of The Night

.

Feelings and counterpoint. 

.

Fyre Of The Night       -        13 Aug 21 

Passion building

Fyre 

In the Hearts

Of 

Driving desire

The 

Hands dancing

Night

Alight again 

.

Hand dancing is fun. 

. 

In The Night

.

Just a statement. 

.

In The Night       -      12 Aug 21

Never have to wait

My Love is there for me 

In the night or in the day

She is there 

With an enchanting smile

She enchanted me 

Now I am hers

Night and day forever 

.

Happily enchanted. 

. 

Time And Times

.

Clearing, piece by reluctant piece. 

.

Time And Times       -     11 Aug 21

Some things remain

When no longer required 

Time holds them

Even though the mind 

Has asked

For them to go 

And through all

The times 

More accumulates

To slow the flow 

.

Best to prevent the buildup. 

. 

Snaggle

.

Born out of a torn word. 

.

Snaggle      -      10 Aug 21 

Most desire to snuggle

In the warn embrace 

Of a Loved one

There are some who

Eschew the pleasures 

Rather be alone

Cat claws catch

On fabric 

Causing snaggle

.

I will take snuggle, please. 

. 

Half

.

A "T" theme today. 

.

Half       -      09 Aug 21

Teasing with partial

Truths 

Tantalising half images

Teasingly held just 

Tips of fingers away

.

Infuriating. 

. 

Phantom Visitors

.

Friends, old and new, are welcome. 

.

Phantom Visitors        -      07 Aug 21

People from my past

Often come to see me 

Some no longer incarnate

Though I always welcome 

My phantom visitors

.

No prejudice as to the state of incarnation. 

. 

Jewels In Your Eyes

.

How easy to be captivated. 

.

Jewels In Your Eyes       -      06 Aug 21 

I looked into your

Beautiful face 

My eyes were captured

By the jewels in your eyes 

I was entranced

Held 

By you

Shining bright glittering 

I was lost in you

.

Willingly captured. 

. 

Feeling

.

Nothing like a bit of sensual pleasure. 

.

Feeling      -      05 Aug 21 

My fingertips know

Your touch 

How the curves describe

The form within 

Feeling you

I can see you

Without opening my eyes 

Though eyes open is

Much more pleasurable

.

Interesting how much the fingers can see. 

. 

Watching The Stream

.

A Lovely place to watch and listen. 

.

Watching The Stream       -       04 Aug 21

Standing on the bank

Watching the ripples 

Listening to the song

Of the stream 

Breeze is silent

Listening to the song 

I cannot speak

Or disturb the song 

.

Being close to the singer brings joy. 

. 

Sands Of Memory

.

Silent dry drips. 

.

Sands Of Memory      -      03 Aug 21 

In the hourglass

Sands slowly cascade

Marking the moments 

Of the instances of joy

Carried by the memory 

Through the lives

I live 

.

Always there, waiting. 

. 

Only Dreaming

.

A dream or is it the birth of a nightmare? 

.

Only Dreaming      -      02 Aug 21 

Everything seems to be

Going well 

A niggling doubt

Scrapes at my thoughts 

Trying to ignore it

But it continues 

Then I realise

That the dark is real 

And I am only dreaming

.

Thoughts like this are often lurking just beyond perception. 

. 

Touch

.

Feel the smile. 

. Touch       -       31 Jul 21

Kiss of the wind

Gentle touch 

Caressing

Face and hair 

Smile in the kiss

Can almost be seen 

On the air

As the kisses continue 

.

Share the smile. 

. 

Because

.

Can there be any other reason? 

.

Because       -      30 Jul 21 

Why do I feel this way

Because 

You are in my life

Because 

You have touched me 

Because 

You have changed me 

Because

You have made my world complete

.

This is what the one special person has done. 

. 

You Show Me

.

Thank you to the one special person. 

.

You Show Me       -       29 Jul 21 

I have searched long

Over many worlds 

For something special

You show me

That what I seek 

Can be found

Just by reaching out 

My hand

And accepting your Love 

I still journey but

Now I am not alone 

.

I am not alone. 

. 

Walking In My Mind

.

A whole different world to examine. 

.

Walking In My Mind      -     28 Jul 21 

Looking at the scenery

Surprising unexpected 

Unknown flowers

In colours I have never seen 

A landscape

Filled with unusual shapes 

Seen only because

I am walking in my mind 

.

I do not think I am alone. 

. 

Exploring

.

Touching on the surreal. 

.

Exploring      -      27 Jul 21 

Knowing where I am

Where I am going 

Maps never explain

Reality 

What it is

Or how 

Only by exploring

Can I understand 

My fingertips see

The textures in the colours 

And feel the warmth

Of light 

.

Can you hear the perfume of roses. 

. 

Pretending

.

Trying to differentiate the many things which can be seen. 

.

Pretending      -      26 Jul 21

Different worlds and

Different ways 

Come together to present

New images 

Each pretending that

They are the only one 

Which is real

.

You must decide what your reality is. 

. 

Forgetful

.

We all have those days. 

.

Forgetful       -      25 Jul 21 

The Sun is forgetful

It used to shine 

Every day

Sometimes now 

It fails to appear

Leaving us beneath 

A cover of grey

.

Dark at night, dark at day. 

. 

Evening Dance

.

Will you come out? 

.

Evening Dance       -       24 Jul 21 

Afternoon slowly fades

Venus shines bright 

In the West

The day goes to rest 

Evening walkers

Move in a secret dance 

Known only to those

Who come out to taste 

Hungry for the night

The special flavours 

Tasted only then

By the favoured few 

.

Are you ready to sample the exotic flavours?

Dripping Thoughts

Inspired by the low-flying cloud.

Dripping Thoughts      -      23 Jul 21

Thoughts

Moist 

Gathering rain from

The air 

Drinking the words

Dripping from the chalice 

Coagulating on the table

Lick them up 

.

Not certain I would want to lick. 

. 

Yet Again

.

Happy trap.

Yet Again       -      22 Jul 21 

Being fully cognisant

Of all the consequences 

Of my actions

Does not prevent me 

From slipping into

The same patterns 

Yet again

So I find myself falling 

In Love with you

Again and again 

And again

I am lost in you 

.

Is that so bad?
