Discovered Secret     -    03 Mar 19

She watched me
I knew she was there
Though I could not
Hide the secret for long
I hoped that I would
Hide it for long enough
Before she discovered it

.
Hide and seek entirely in my thoughts, no one else involved.

Often giving half-truths
In order to confuse
The questioner
So I can evade and relax

.
Stepping aside is often the safest way of dealing with an awkward question.

Questions    -    01 Mar 19

Always being asked
In subtle ways
To reveal things
I would rather not share

.
You must have had this kind of intrusion.

Time In Hand

Wishing that time would slow for a while.

Time In Hand    -    28 Feb 19

Watching moments
Pass
Sands of time
Slips between tired fingers
Wishing the hand would
Still hold time
In the palm

.
But time just passes in the way it always does.

Excavations

.
When tidying things potentially for disposal, sometimes something surfaces to surprise me.

.
Excavations     -     27 Feb 19

Touching the past
Reaching within to
Uncover hidden forgotten
Elements of life
Excavations reveal
The lost parts

.
Sometimes pleasant, sometimes not but always surprising.

.

Times

.
Just a way of observing and reacting.

.
Times     -    26 Feb 19

Circling hands
Measuring the passing
Of the night as dreams
Fade again
Taken into the maelstrom
Of the whirling times
Riding the waves
Surviving only
By breathing times

.
Riding the waves of time.

.

Other Place

.
Dancing.

.
Other Place     -     25 Feb 19

And so
The dance of night
Fills my thoughts
As I enter
The other place
And take my position
In the circle of days
And dance

.
A beautiful dance in a beautiful place.

.

Sea Mirage

.
Images are presented in many ways and in interesting places.

.
Sea Mirage     -    24 Feb 19

Waves draw an image
Across the skies
Whisps of hidden stories
A mirage over the sea
Tells the saga
Of forgotten dreamers
As the dreams fade
Along with those who dreamed

.
Dreams tend to fade but sometimes watching the sea can bring them back.

.

Incomplete Ideas

.
Feeling all the pieces and wondering.

.
Incomplete Ideas    -    23 Feb 19

You know what I mean
I think I might
One day bring it all together
One day
But
Until then I have
Incomplete ideas
In the fragments
Of my mind

.
Wondering when it will all come together.

.

Somewhen Shells

.
I am listening to the call.

.
Somewhen Shells    -    22 Feb 19

In a forgotten sea
From a world hidden
In the mists of time
The somewhen shells
Are calling me
Back to them

.
Put these shells to your ear and listen to the sounds of time.
