.

The book of the year. 

. 

Open       -       01 Dec 20 

An open book 

As the year draws 

To an end 

Dreams scribed 

In tears 

Of joy and sorrow 

Both due to completion 

Soon this book will close 

And another will open 

. 

The words are not to be read by us. 

. 

Pages

.

Words are there. 

. 

Pages      -     22 Jul 20 

A book 

Holding thoughts 

In the ink-scribed pages 

From a millennia 

Gathered from time 

To leave an idea 

Wherever it falls 

. 

Just read. 

. 

Painted Memories

.
Remembered Loves.

.
Painted Memories   -  01 Aug 19

An old dream
Pressed
Between the pages
Of an even older book
Colours of the petals
Of a flower
Remain
On the words
Of a Love song
Painted memories

.
Remembered significant moments of a life.

.

Grimoire

.
The Book of Shadows holds all things.

.
Grimoire    -   21 May 19

Shadows hold the secrets
Of the ancient mysteries
The book scribed in
Coloured inks
Spells spelled out
In words from the dawn
The grimoire holds
More than any one person
Can ever know
However you do know
For you hold the book

.
The essence of all, is within.

.

Pressed Memories

.
Keeping the memories safe.

.
Pressed Memories    -   31 Oct 18

Pressed between the pages
Of an unread book
Memories dreams wishes
Thoughts of Love from the past
Resting for now
Hoping to bring them back to life
As time passes
The book placed under the pillow
To feed the dreams through
The night before going to sleep
To grow to fruition

.
Safe and watered with tears.

.

Still Searching

A long search for answers.





Still Searching  -  03 May 17

Questing through an ancient book

Looking for answers

To a puzzle

Hints were left to be found

Gradually they come together

I am still searching

For the final pieces

The answers are out there.

Old Memories Watching

Interesting how reading something can trigger a new thought.





Old Memories Watching  -  26 Aug 16

A book flipped open

By random gusts of wind

Pages carry ancient memories

All watch as thoughts

Tumble in a dance

Of chaos

Meaningless ideas of

What may have resulted

From continued connection

Of the fragment of time

Futile ideas

And still the memories watch

Inspired by “Watching Old Memories” published 03 Aug 16

Story In Flowers

This is a sort of "found Love song" ~ you will understand what I mean when you read it.





Story In Flowers  -  24 Aug 14

Ancient flowers
Pressed between the pages
Of a forgotten book
Telling a Love story
Of two Lovers
Who were
But are no more

Lost story
Inscribed in pencil
Between the petals
No names
Just words
You ~ Me
Love





Maybe this was we in a previous life.

Open Messages

Another Love  song with an invitation.





Open Message  -  09 Aug  14

An open book
On the table
Words indicated
With a paper marker
I Love you

An open door
Near the table
Unspoken words
Need not be said
Come, see me





How a book and a door can be used to convey a message and an invitation.

Flowers

Another new Love song.





Flowers  -  08 Oct 13

Flowers
In an open book
Perfume pressed
In the pages
Petals remember

Our time together
Called back into memory
Kisses pressed
From our lips
Into the pages

Rainbow petals
Rainbow kisses
We turn the pages
Of our book
To the unwritten future





I'm happy with another Love song ~ long  may they continue.
