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?

Seventh House

.
An astrological message today.

.
Seventh House   -   26 Aug 19

Venus kissed gently
Caressing the line
Of the secret form
The ram smiled
With pleasure
As he entered
The seventh house

.
A little cryptic but astrologers will understand.

.

Love Unlimited

.
This is the second poem of the "Planets Suite".  This is about the effects of Venus.

.
Love Unlimited     -    15 Jan 19

Never asked for anything
Just wanted to give
All she had
All she was
Love unlimited
Venus gives
Endlessly

.
Feel the Love.

Universe [Acrostic]

The first acrostic of the year.





Universe [Acrostic]  -  15 Jan 17

Unequaled

Night and day

In all the possibilities

Venus watches

Evening and morning

Run through the universe

Star song

Echoes everywhere

There will probably be more to come somewhen.

Evolving [Acrostic]

Another acrostic poem to test my brain.





Evolving [Acrostic]  -  25 Nov 15

Evening star dance
Venus in the western sky
Opens her Heart to us
Love ever changing and growing
Vibrant energy draws us on
Into a new world
Never ceasing
Growing into something new





I think my brain works.

Venus

Inspired by a sighting at around 06:00 as I looked out at the world.




Venus  -  26 Feb 14

Hint of colour
In the eastern sky
Crone’s bow pointed
At the point of sunrise
Watched over
By Venus in her dawn robe

Hint of light
In my room
Allows me to see your form
I smile as I watch
You gently breathe
Spring air in the night





Venus and the Moon playing hide and seek among small scattered clouds before dawn.

Haikū 47

Pledge  -  23 May 10

Renewing the pledge
I made so long ago ... I
Am yours forever


Conjured  -  24 May 10

The dream you conjured
Took me to a place I knew
Would show me your Love


Contest  -  24 May 10

Venus challenged you
To a contest of beauty
She could not beat you


Rest  -  24 May 10

The rest of the world
Has been beaten ... I have won
I can claim your Heart


Batter  -  24 May 10

Storm winds batter me
Push me hither and thither
But I will survive





There will be more soon.

Dancing Through the Dark

When contemplating what to post today I allowed myself to be guided and was interrupted in my selection by Twitter asking for attention, all three updates had something to do with Dance.

I tend not to argue with Spirit and the suggestions made, so I shall just get out of the way...




Dancing Through the Dark - 20 Oct 96

In the darkness
We danced.
We touched,
Moving together
Waiting for the dawn.
Venus watched us
In the growing light
Knowing we were one

Our footsteps
Tread the ancient ways
We stir the sands of time
With our dance.

From darkness we were born
To darkness we shall go
Eventually.
And in between...our dance
Shall mark the moments
Count the seconds
Of the darkness
Waiting for the dawn
Waiting for the sun
To kiss our lives

To bless our movements
In the dance.





I don't really have anything further to say, it is fun when Spirit gives gentle - and not so gentle - hints as to the direction to take, sometimes said direction is really unexpected.

Hopefully I will be able to take the direction I choose next time.

02 from 02

A couple of poems from 2002, I may show a few more at some time in the future but for now...



Racing the Illusions 01 Nov 02

Smile...
The illusions are
Slipping away

Your dreams
Are stronger than
Their reality

Drifting through
The mid-morn sun
The dew is just a memory
On your feet
Like cobwebs
Across your face
Gossamer threads
Weaving through
Your dreams
Caressing your memories

So smile...
Watch the illusions
Fly

Smile again
Spread your wings
And soar beyond them



Afternoon, Going Home 19 Oct 02

In the still
Of a slow autumn day
We sat
And we played
Our little, gentle games
And our music
Filled the afternoon
Drifting slow
With the clouds
Gently playing with the sun
As slowly he goes to his
Place of rest.

Evening
Comes slowly,
Adagio movement
As the moon slowly rises
And Venus slowly sets
With the sun

Our song is sung
The words are now
Complete
The music
Fading
In the afterglow
The stars are shining
In the night
And dancing
With the fireflies


Candles burn
Undimmed
In the window
To call us home
To welcome us
To light our way back
To the place
We belong



Hope you liked the offering for today, I enjoyed re-reading them. Sometimes I find that it is almost like reading something that someone else wrote - given the time differential, I suppose it was someone else.
Farewell from all versions of me then, till next time.
