Earth

Another of the new "Elements" sequence.





Earth  -  26 Jul 16

Home forever
Cared for
By the Eternal Mother
Wherever we are
Earth is always with us
In our Hearts
As we are within
Hers





Somewhen a long time ago there was a different "Elements" series.

Ancient Mothers

Part of a mythos of protection from the Elders.





Ancient Mothers  -  02 Sep 15

In the hall
The ancient mothers
Gathered to watch
Again
For centuries
Their vigil of Love
Has protected us





We are always being watched over.

Caring

This poem has been wandering through my mind for a few hours last night and today waiting to be given full form...now it seems to be ready.





Caring - 19 Dec 09

With each stroke
She calms the fears
With each gentle
Touch
She wipes away the tears

Cradling in her arms
Singing softly
Soothing the mind
Sleep
Comes quietly

Gently laid to sleep;
Standing over
She is the guardian,
The mother, the keeper of dreams
The guide into
The new day





A slightly different feel to this poem from my usual content but...

The Central Theme

I have to say that I don't know why that title was chosen for the poem, something suggested it and I felt that I didn't want to argue - I'm nice like that. [Grinning broadly while typing...]

Please read and enjoy...




The Central Theme - 16 & 21 Nov 02


I

Kissed a maiden
And was rewarded
With a smile
My friends said "You lucky --- "
But there was nothing
Behind the smile
But emptiness


II

Kissed a mother
And felt guilty
Because she 'belonged'
To someone else
But she was
Everything to everyone
Protector and provider
And her touch was truly
Loving


III

Kissed a crone
And was blessed
Because I dared to see
The beauty within
Rather than the image
That time presents


IV

Kissed a soul
And shared
Infinity
