Pendulum

An actual observation invited me to build a poem around it and so . . . 





Pendulum  -  11 Apr 15

Pendulum marks
Interval between departures
Sparrows feed at the tube
Of seeds
Hanging from a branch
Sudden scare
Sparrows fly to cover
Pendulum counts
Again





. . . swinging from a branch.

Lasting Memories

Just a pure Love song is an offering today.





Lasting Memories  -  10 Apr 15

Fading moments
Of a welcome day
Memories will linger
Never fading
Always lasting because
The Love you share
Will always keep me warm
Our passions
Constant





Written on my Birthday for someone really special.

Songs Of Ages Past

A song which comes from the Dreamtime ~ the Spirit time before time.





Songs Of Ages Past  -  09 Apr 15

And who will sing
The songs of ancient times
Or tell the tales
That made our grandmothers
Smile in the night

Sitting in silence
Waiting for the songs
Grandmother whispered
These songs were old
Long before I heard them

Songs from the dawn
Recalled in our dreams
Earth heard them
When waves kissed the shore
And the wind sang along




At least, this is my personal interpretation of Dreamtime and where our dreams and legends are born.

Unexpected Hue

A new limite surréaliste poem which grew out of the change of months in the year.





Unexpected Hue  -  08 Apr 15

Hues of the unexpected
Colour shifting
Lavender kisses sound
March wishes danced
On April’s bed
In the prelude to summer
Her chorus
Dangles in the mind
Painted with an autumn
Brushstroke
Anticipation

Unexpected words





Expected things are often not as anticipated ~ which adds a real interest to life.

Shine

A small poem with a fantasy touch.





Shine  -  08 Apr 15

Clouds hanging
From a star filled ceiling
When the sun forgot
To shine
Fireflies took over
To light our way





Love to have a room like this one.

Going Back

Going back to what was and realising that what is, is so much more fun.

Going Back  -  08 Apr 15

Going back

Things were simpler then

Nothing to distract

One step after another

Nothing unexpected

Going back

Is it worth it?

To step away from

What is now to what was

Is it?

Going back

To now and you

Ever moving through our times

Together in our

Going

Stay here and grow with me.

Writing

A poem which was inspired by writing Love songs ~ one of the Loveliest occupations I know.





Writing  -  07 Apr 15

I wrote me
Into your life
With a few words
Love poetry
Songs which spoke
Directly to your Soul

You wrote me
Into your life
As you sketched
A poem in a few lines
The lines which
Burned in my Soul

We wrote
An Eternal song
Words taken from
The whole of time
Just to be shaped
For us by us





Writing Love songs ARE fun.

Fearless Lips

A Love song which seems to be unfinished though it leaves so much room for the adventure.





Fearless Lips  -  07 Apr 15

Fearless lips
Wandered
Across my cheeks
Left a trail of kisses
Sang a soft song
To the sun
Ballad whispered
To take us both





Going on the adventure?

Moon Sharing

This poem has quite a strong element of "limite surréaliste" to it, I cannot recall what inspired it apart from seeing the Moon.





Moon Sharing  -  05 Apr 15

She watches patiently waits
Watches
For a sign
To say

Sharing her dream with us
Dreaming
Dream sign
Talks

Sharing a Moon moment
Whisper
Night image
Shine





Being a Lunatic is FUN.

 

Secret Whispers

Another Love song, just a bit deeper than most.





Secret Whispers  -  05 Apr 15

Secret whispers
Love flows through me
From a word
Heard from your lips
In the moment
When passion flavours
Every touch

Word upon word
Building a palace
To hold our Love
Thought upon thought
Builds the Love
Tenderly formed
We have

Secret whispers
Only for us
Words to bind us
In Love
Silken threads
Held by our Hearts
For Eternity





The deeper the Love song the deeper the Love.
