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
Come searching for that place Where there’s stillness in the chaos Yet momentum Even on those doldrums days – When nothing moves And what you thought was peace Morphs into Gloomy brooding Once there, you’ll quieten the heart Racing in trepidation; But still invigorate the mind When trapped by its exertion And finally,ContinueContinue reading “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”

After the rain
The sky’s grey fury has been spent From cascading tears, to gently Whispering a final tribute On a moist breeze haunting the fields The trees, they bow beneath the wind In a hesitant symphony; Shaking the water from their leaves They glisten and cease their mourning Soft rays of sun reach out to pierce ThroughContinueContinue reading “After the rain”
The Dawning Night
The sun, she stoops to kiss the sea Reluctant touch, as fatefully Her colour bleeds away from sight Cedes to murky realms of twilight But until then she glows fiercely Defiant of her destiny Rebelling against her night foes Though caught in death’s spasmodic throes Up above an erupting sky Signals to all a warningContinueContinue reading “The Dawning Night”
Earth spirit
I remember when the earth was born When she was young and healthy and free The forests were lush, the rivers flowed With the passionate force of the wild I remember I’d dance in the woods Wearing nothing but a cape of leaves Across the soil I’d stride barefoot, to Bathe in water thatContinueContinue reading “Earth spirit”
