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. 

.
