Moonbow Dreams


Seeing a photograph of a Moonbow on the BBC News website reminded me of acrually seeing them during my stays on the edge of Dartmoor.





Moonbow Dreams  -  13 Nov 16

Arc of silver
Across the sky
Calls me to attend
The world of my dreams
Painted with the same brush
Silver moonbow





They are really quite lovely and fascinating.

Touching Light


Another poem for and about the one special person.





Touching Light  -  12 Nov 16

Tasting the brilliance
Of your Love
Enfolding waves
Wrapping me
Gemtly feeling you
To take you into me
Touching lightly
Touching you
Touching light





You know who YOU are.

Perception


This may or may not be real, depending on your perception.





Perception  -  11 Nov 16


I do not know
Whether what I see
Is real
Or if my mind
Is just making it up
Invention of reality
Reality is an invention
It all depends on which way
I look
Perception of perception





How does it look to you?

In The Day


Another observation poem.





In The Day  -  10 Nov 16

Shadows of clouds
Drift
Across the land
Painting images of themselves
In the illusion
Of the moment
In the day





Watch the paintings form.

To You


In a way this is a sequel to "From Me" because of the title though the feel of the poem is different.





To You  -  09 Nov 16

Long moments in the sun
You spoke the words
Wove the spell
To charm my Heart
You looked deep within me
Saw clearly all of me
Knew that what was there
I would willingly give to you





What do you think?

Because [Acrostic]


An acrostic dedicated to the one special person.





Because [Acrostic]  -  08 Nov 16

Been with you for an
Eternity in a state of bliss
Calling on the stars to witness

Unbounded and freely given
Shared without condition
Endlessly because of you





YOU know.

Mind's Eye


A Love song with just a little Lust song adding to the chorus.





Mind's Eye  -  07 Nov 16

Watching you
Feeling your Love
Knowing what I see
Is real
Hearing your gentle voice
Echoing the words I speak
Feeling your hands
Smelling your special perfume
These things and more
My mind's eye
Can see





Thinking about the Special One.

Song In The Night


A little poem about an observation and general thoughts.





Song In The Night  -  06 Nov 16

Nightingale takes the melody
Shared with the blackbird
Chorus in the night
Singing in the secret darkness
Of a special world
The song fills everything





I remember listening to blackbirds singing at night when I lived in London.

From Me


A little bouquet for that someone special.





From Me  -  05 Nov 16

Formed from the words
I spoke to you
A bouquet of secret flowers
Presented to you
From me
With Love
To take with you
Wherever you go





Wonder who ~ YOU know.

Autumn Senryū


A form of poem I have not offered for a long time.






Autumn Senryū


I

Leaves washed from the trees
By heavy rain ~ once crisp now
Soft beneath my feet


II

Cloud scrapes the hillside
Harvesting the last flowers
For summer's spirit


III

Autumn holds us all
In a cool tender embrace
Warmth not far away





Quite satisfying I feel.
