Roads & Remember

Sitting in the very early hours of the morning, listening to music when slowly Muse started to suggest a few words to me.  The resulting poem is actually two interlinked poems, different but fully connected in feel and theme.





Roads & Remember  -  22 Feb 13


The road past my door
Is empty now
Though my memory still hears
The footsteps you left

I recall the Lovely words
You whispered
To me
… Remember

The road across the moor
Chill ~ wind blows cold
Forgotten words still spoken
By forgotten voices

You softly said
We shall be together
Again … always
… Remember

The road by the sea
Where we walk
Hand in hand
Your touch always

Your gentle words
Always in my mind
We are together
… Always





I think it works rather well, thank you Muse for your suggestions.

Sea and Moor

Muse tapped me on my shoulder yesterday and said, "Write..."





Sea and Moor - 01 Aug 10

Half way between
Sea and moor
Is where you can find me

I walk the cliffs
And gaze out
Over the ocean
Try to see my love...
Waiting for her

I walk the circle
Magical ring
Talking with the Guardian
He tells me...
She is waiting

I am at the half-way point
Talking with myself
Again...and dreaming
And asking...
Why?

Half way
Is better than
No way





First poem in quite a while and one which has a slightly unusual feel, what do you think?
