Poems of Nature
Until Then
I've imagined the day, when we will walk on the shoreline together
It's nightfall, the in-between time
We're waiting to see the moon glinting on the navy ocean
Our feet crunch on the pebbles as we look out to the horizon
There's a slight breeze, the call of seabirds and anticipation
I'll know this moment when it arrives
I'll wait patiently until then

Lace
We dipped our toes into the sea, cooling water, free
hermit crabs, wearing their shells like armour, it was we
A holiday for a lifetime, a perfect sonnet, a rhyme
welsh cakes with butter, sublime
Why did we love each other, we had talked about our mothers
the sea is our mother, our lover
We walked through the dunes, licked ice creams
laughed like lunes
The magnetic pull of the ocean inside, swept us up, ride
our souls must be one, it's our story, we shone upon each tide
Filming, seeing, hearing, feeling the small frothy fronds of the sea
licked our toes clean of the sand, our land, our free

A Meeting of Kin
Throughout the earth there came a bee of a sigh
eleven fairy maidens in the green they did lie
their fairy lovers flew low amongst the silvereen trees
the eleven elven folk they melded with ease
It was a meeting of the elvish fairy kin
because the dear earth was in such a spin
plants were frozen tight amongst the thaw
'twas a very chilling time in the fairy law
What would become of the earth bound folks
who tilled the land, who told their jokes
a time would come where each would kyne
they'd all come together to partake the rhyme
Many had found their definitive places
what made their heart define their races?
so many souls were come to see
the elven fairy folks upon bended knees
Trees wore their shrouds upon their green
weeping was commonplace, each light grew dim
out of woods the fairies came, to shine their soul beams
so that earth could sigh happy within her dreams

Beyond the Sea
where the land lies beyond the sea
this magical journey taken deep within me
the sky is hard pewter, the colour of stone
nine enchanted trees guide me back home
the grass is rich purple, my soul it reflects
each tree is whitened with ageing respect
the pathway between shows me the way
eastern sky take me into today
by night my voice sings low and full
my journey through life is driven, not dull
images and visions bear forth the fruit
as my inner musician strums on his lute
choices I make, reflect from within
forever my dear one, let the living begin
so maybe life is the chord, connected by stars
where sunlight melts snow and quickly discards
each never moment that begins with a smile
one foot forward, twelve inches one mile
spiralling down into our earth rich and fine
remember my angel that life is a rhyme

The Mushroom Umbrella
the magic of the mushoom, it keeps the gloom at bay
whilst the faery of the meadow sits beneath it on this day
her companion is the lily, it grows up and through the green
it matches the sky with fortitude, the best it's ever seen
the grass it grows with vigour, the softest cushion known
a place to sit and ponder, when all the stress has grown
a rich and verdant oasis, in the middle of a field
a silent breath of stillness as the crops begin to yield
the frog it comes to sit there from beyond the hedgerow bank
to be a friend and companion high up within the rank
he adopts his position, and day by day they grow
their spirits fly with gratitude and travel within the flow
with eyes shut in reverie, the gentle faery sleeps
seated in this meadow, the dew it weeps and weeps
one day the faery realised, that the sun was full and round
just like a little faery cake, the sweetness had been found
in the beauty of the springtime, we smile with strengthened love
the angels do surround us all, while the birds sing from high above
we're cheered in celebration, as springtime falls in place
our hearts conjoin together, for one, the human race

Legends Arise
myths abound
legends arise
the dragon grows weary
the faeries grow wise
elves in the bluebells
pixies in the mist
dwarfs dig the garden
under each eclipse
birds sing for succour
when the dark birds fly
a clarion of angels
arisen from the sky

Off the Planet
there's a city on the planet, it's placed upon a curve
all the lines are straight and neat, but man he lost his nerve
he took the serpent footpath, that led from behind the tree
the lines they curved in rivered bends, they led to infinity
on one side there was plenty, the daisies, grew so white
the faeries flew the brightest clouds, it seem so outta sight
there were dragonflies and rainbows, that beckoned to sublime
humanity felt the pull, they went there in each rhyme
on the other side of the planet, life it grew so hard
so the patient faery sat there, and then she drew a card
the card it said to rest a while, in nature so replete
she took the apple offered, she thought it kinda neat
while the great tree stands, our lives will carry forth
but if they fell that single tree...let's not ponder aught!

And did you see
And did you see
upon the dew kissed grasses
signatures of cobwebs
alight with dancing
shadows, flickering through
half closed lashes
against bright sun beams
of puckish magic
And did you see the
faeries flitting into sun warmed
flowers, kicking off their
silken shoes and wandering
bare foot in gauzy satin
dresses of myriad rainbows
glancing sea green eyes
to the eastern sunrise
Escorted through woodlands
of bright dreaming
the elfs and faeries walked
alongside the chalk white carriages
of giggling rosy cheeked children
carrying baskets of sun ripened
fruits and scented flowersTai

In dreams will talk
magical elm
heal my heart
let wisdom dwell
in every part
may destiny unlock
my earthly walk
then woodland goddess
in dreams will talk
may gardens thrive
with heavenly flowers
and eternity escape
its earthly towers
this phase of life
will pass away
may magick brighten
another day
*
nature is
beautiful
refreshed
in my eyes
combining
heaven and
earth
seeing
peace
bloom
*
dust of magic
eternal bliss
may the evening
end in a kiss
*
rhythm of nature
a part of the all that is
perfected in love
*
for my life
I see a bloom
as fresh as
any faery tune
with wings of light
this magic is cast
oh love
my heart
may the magic last

Sun Cinema
The boat connects air and water
as the landscape meets our eyes and hearts
Each new creativity
is the firework of Lorn
jumping into itself
when loving is born
Light the blue touch paper
the match is the love we all share
that connects all the parts
while we remain in aware
The sun is the cinema
lending its light to our lives
romance is the moon
as our romance is star wise
A part of the milky way
engenders our dreams
keep rising upwards
whilst mending each seam
When everything is woven
we'll never need to mend
tracing our heart lines
on the nib of the pen

April 2018***Is but a whisper?
Is life on planet earth a whisper of what it yet to come?
our flames grow every brighter, listen, can you hear the hum?
There are questions being asked, a preponderance of thoughts
is life like a board game, a joining of noughts?
Put your lips in a posture, to make good the sound
now gather together to remake the round
From day to day, from life to life
we tread so softly as if on the blade of a knife
In the gathering we gather, to confirm the Beloved
to enlighten the gratitude that arises from being loved
The explanations they pour, light upon the light
eternally we are found, the flames will be burn bright
In physical form we may feel some tiredness, a lack of strength
but we know beyond doubt, our spirits will go to any length
To fulfil the deepest wisdom in the Goblet of Sound
we will drink of the wine in the essence of profound

Mind Blend
Between the crystal world and the world of imagination
there sits that perfect zone
the zone that opens up all possibilities
for the spirit to journey home
home is brought to dwell in labyrinths of the mind
brought into a certitude that's not so well defined
there's a kind of "breathing space"
where everything fits right in
a feeling within the being
that's as certain as spiders spin
for on that stellar network, transmissions are received
a chatter that brings attention to whatever it is we need

The Moon Gazing Rabbit
hey rabbit!, what are you looking at
its a bright, bright moon for sure
a thin slice was missing last night
the rabbit gazed, looking at the moon
he waited to see what would happen
clouds never came, though he waited
his eyes were moon wide, just gazing
snaps were heard in the undergrowth
below the hillock, down by the stream
dusty, dusty noises broke above
the screech of the bat
dark shapes never linger for long

Together ~ Equinox
the moon and the sun always shine
whether we are aware or not
each has its significance in our creation
the two come together as one
bodily union from spirit realms
making new life from old
each baby imprinted by the love
that formed each universe
our consciousness forever seeks
new ways and worlds of appearing

Multi Dimensional Reality
The world as you know it - all that you see, taste, feel and touch, comprises only about 5% of all of the stuff of the universe. The other 95% is what we have considered "nothing" or the "firmament" or dark matter or the heavens or mystic Other Worlds. This 95% is multi-dimensional and consists of potential realities that may be perceived.
A single thought...a mere whisper, ...... barely upon a breeze that catches a spark... all is tinder before the firestorm... and yet.
ONLY that whisper
ONLY that thought
the world is forever changed beyond the fears and dreams of cardboard men.
Freedom and change starts within:
It is encouraged by truth and courage of people who love
Built by the respect of true beings standing as one before each other.
Lets us cross every man made borders
without fear stare into eyes and hearts of all our brothers and sisters: within our words without shouting,or force to hold each to our truths; and let us without fear freely share what works...
