The Crescent Arc
Sweetgum trees
silhouette majestic sunset
Enchantment with artistic wonders
highlighted by the crescent
on nights like these
Across edge of twilight
where soft lavender hues
tell the tale of
the golden arc
~
The night is clear and cool
sliver of crescent moon
hangs bright in the sky
radiating a warm glow
reflecting beauty
illuminating this autumn night
An Indifferent Sky
Once a field of water
surrounding the bay
Now the fishing trawlers
lie still
A fisherman gaze at
the barren sea
wondering …
what little …
there’s left
~
The village deserted
Haze hovers over the hills
But a moment of beauty
as rain clouds part
the moon peeps
a rainbow of hope
across the indifferent sky
Music Within The Words
The music of life
it seems to me
a paradise where
roses bloom
beside a garden wall
when stars are bright
the nightingale sings
a melody of
love’s refrain
a song at twilight
a symphony of hues
the magic of poetry!
That spark …
The rarity of that moment
like the day
you pick the flowers
in spring
and the air smells of lavender
a vision of your journey
as bright
as the sparkling stars
With these fleeting days
and through the passage of time
the season bursts
beauty of life
awakened
For Better, For Worse?
Concrete, steel, glass
Do they inspire?
A greengrocer …
gobbled by modernity
Tall skyscrapers
multi-storied complexes
super megastores
bear testimony
~
A blade of grass
a wildflower
things that pulse
with life
give way
to hearts of mortar
A Field Of Dreams
Sunlight filtering
through leafy trees
handcrafted sculptures
the garden café
bustling with life
reminding us that
we are not solitary islands
we meet to catch up
so no matter how
lonely it may appear
you are not alone.
~
Write your words
or speak out loud
like on a stage
a field of dreams
where words are birds
set free from their cage
watch them fly
wings stretched wide
they glide through
the wind in a way
that is just different.
Beyond The Blue Sky …
And the raindrops
tumble all around
Heaven opens so magically
There’s a rainbow somewhere
beyond the blue sky
There’s sunshine
and bluebirds singing
chiming in the breeze
Bluebells dancing
as the clouds drift away.
Boxed In …
They need space
family relationships
overpowering mother
subdued children
work, life
personal relationships
realistic needs
low self esteem
affecting behaviour
thinking, personality
personal development
fragile
misfits in society …
treat with care and love.
Being Meaningful
Our attitude
towards life
its challenges
expanding focus
beyond self
strengthen another.
Rare Moments?
In a complex world
too difficult to understand
in those rare moments
the grains of sand
in the hourglass of time
we may see ourselves
as human, sometimes beautiful
reflecting on life
relevant in a hectic
insular world
striving for excellence
perhaps even perfectionism
sometimes trying
to understand life
all in good time …
And The Ship Sailed On
From a distance
Across the bay
~
Catch a glimpse
Jetty at daybreak
~
Fisherman casting net
Life in motion
~
Island in the sun
Stretches of sand
Shining blue waters.
What’s Percolating
Morning bustle
Marketplace arcade
Unique bookshops
Quirky cafés
Everyday reflections
People interacting
over a cuppa
Grasping moments … life.
Tide Of Times
The tide that overtakes
these times, a future
uncertain as the wild sea …
human folly unfolds
on our news-screens
and yes, and yes …
even from these uncertainties
a new sun will rise …
Love’s Serenade
Beautiful dreamer
lover of life
come and enchant me
with sweet melody.
~
Songs of the summer
dreamy with love
beauty and splendour
pleasures of joy.
~
Seasons refreshing
awakening blooms
colours of flowers
perfume and hues.
~
Songs of the summer
dreamy with love
beauty and splendour
pleasures of joy.
Alluring Splendour
Life’s journeys
are determined
by the sojourner
Nothing can replace
the allurement of passion
~
Embrace
days of sweet
hours of splendour
Remember, remember
days of love and joy
like the magical rhythm
of an orchestra playing
“Days of wine and roses”
Dream That Dream
On distant shores
waves weaving sculptures
on shoreline
made of sea scented sand
Birds with wings stretched wide
they glide through the wind
~
Island in the sun
majestic palms
breath-taking hues
of pink and magenta
sunsets enchanting, alluring
inspiring beauty of life
wonders of miracles
to imagine … to dream.
