“I listen to my inner child, yeh the girl within she knows, who I am and what I want; I’ll follow her until the end…” When we reconnect with the child inside us, with the spirit that is untainted and unconstrained by the prison shackles of society, we can discover afresh the wonder of life;ContinueContinue reading “Inner child”

Frosty waters
Like piercing needles cold to heat Of frozen water penetrating deep And tuning in with mountain air I breathe in strong to what lays there; Hidden beneath the folds of frost There’s a golden secret long been lost Rhythm of earth pulse of fire A yearning grows to fierce desire That we may build bridgesContinueContinue reading “Frosty waters”
Yearning
Come; Together let’s cross the raging river Of broken dreams And new beginnings The weeping waters Telling stories Of forgotten loves Hopeless ambitions Lost in time Then rising again An echo, a whisper Of aching desire The deepest yearning For the human soul to find another who – just might share their vision
Stillness
How many moments pass me by While I try to capture one In a still frame, which never shows The truth, the life beyond . Hiding away the fierce laughter, And frowns of a troubled soul Alone in the endless expanse Of a vast sleepless void . What beauty sighs beyond my grasp? Butterflies sweptContinueContinue reading “Stillness”
The other half
Sound of silence, Web of stillness First you tense, As emptiness Shocks your bones; Alone, afraid to Face the ghost within. But one day You’ll learn, you’ll grow Hearing the music In your soul; The friend, the lover Always there to Gently guide you home. Photographer: Robert Doisneau
Content
That heavy emptiness Settling in Satiated soul Mellow mind Done, content Energy spent Yet nourished, held In the calmest space The precious place With nothing more To do or say Caught in Infinite Timelessness
Secret Garden
Let your eyes indulge, feasting On a thousand flowers blooming; In Nature’s secret garden Array of colour, blissful delight Bathing you in delicate light; The glory of hidden treasure The birds call and a breeze plays Sweeping you into the mystery haze; Of Life’s impressionist painting
The Universe within

Elements
Leaves, Blown by the wind Chasing each other Fearless and bold Sun, Still burning bright Yet it won’t be long Till night takes hold Earth, Give me your strength To face darkness with Courage and might For I wish to be As free as the wind As pure as the rain HeartContinueContinue reading “Elements”
Walk with me
The road is never straight when It runs beside a river Curving with the wild waters That know not man’s boundaries Amble with me on this trail And I’ll teach you what I’ve learnt What lies beyond the harsh lines Assumptions too often made As we walk the sun will sink But fearContinueContinue reading “Walk with me”
