Posted: 7/26/2009 6:04:33 AM | today is indeed very blessed....
when friendship touches us
there is bliss upon emptiness
riding the wave of gentleness
the last four lines of a longer poem,
but these seem complete in themselves.... | |

Posted: 7/27/2009 9:37:33 AM | My body and mind often fight,
Like two kids for the upper hand,
And both in their own ways are right,
The mind most often takes command,
But I wish that it would soften,
Let my body win more often.
(Now my mind has had a little workout,
it's time for my body to have one too. Toodle-l00!) | |

An old though not intimate friend,
No, she's not Helen of Troy,
But true and doesn't play coy,
She's someone the gods might send,
To cheer you and lighten your way. | |

ashes blown about
mulch for tomorrow's garden
regenerating recreation

We'd be able to see all the stars in the sky.
We'd sit gaze at the wonder they are,
Just you and just me,
Under the stars. | |

Posted: 7/28/2009 10:18:26 AM | we lay quietly hand in hand
as in oneness we blended
by the shore on Grecian sand
cricket songs long had ended
yearning lips the only breeze
soft kisses night only sees | |

Posted: 7/28/2009 12:06:24 PM | ^^^ Thanks, Hugs--you inspired this one:
Soft Focus
Only the night sees these kisses
our eyes being closed, all four
the better to savor, perhaps
without the distraction of sense
we focus ever more sharply
on the vision in our heads

Posted: 7/28/2009 4:59:24 PM | (Sadly it`s true. People are often so self-absorbed, not only do they not step out of themselves and help but they don`t even see that someone is in need. Pregnant women and others with physical problems are left standing on buses and trains while the rest stay seated; oblivious. How can they hear a cry, when their headsets are all at full volume?)
Idly writing verses on the Net,
Out on my deck in the shade,
Il Divo sighing Isabel from my headset,
Sipping a cool rum drink I made,
With just a hint of lemon,
Surely this is heaven.
(my apologies, Omar.) | |

Posted: 7/28/2009 9:36:40 PM | staring from within the wall of bone ,a bowl, only place i can live
life poured, then stirred me in
ideation built from nouns of nonsense vanishing as they begin
you swear its never been your plan ,explaining virtue in your sin
but the rules in your game always change til you win
not too much to lose ,never less, always more than you give.. | |

Posted: 7/28/2009 10:11:35 PM | Night has fallen and the stars are not yet out,
Back on my deck after a council meeting,
Moment of solitude when my heart pours out,
And in return comes peace, however fleeting,
Enya's music flows rhythmically into my ears,
As I await the nightly dance of the spheres. | |

Posted: 7/29/2009 6:16:06 PM | A switch has finally flipped,
The air is no longer cool,
This heat is not in the script,
It's new and only a fool,
Could still believe the old lie,
The world has changed, heed the cry! | |

Posted: 7/30/2009 10:32:33 AM | Manchester England England
Across the Atlantic sea
Nothing compares with England
Or rhymes with it I see
You either love it or hate it
It has a class of it own
Many there are that have left it
But proudly the rest call it home
I may go there next spring
And explore her canals afloat
Relaxing and just doing my thing
Enjoying whatever floats my boat
(Thanks for the kudos)
(Oops! Forgot where I was
and went over the limit.
Sorry, just cross out whatever lines
you don't like till only six are left.
Or just count it as two poems.) | |

Posted: 7/31/2009 2:15:27 PM | When all is said and done, My heart screams "he's the one"
I must dismantle the wall inside, The wall that helps me hide
All the love and feelings
Need to find the meaning
Let him know
THERE IS NO LEAVING | |

Posted: 7/31/2009 3:34:07 PM | SOMETHING MISSING
we can all miss something, that we have had.
But now that its gone, is all that bad.
But what of the thing's ,that make us sad?
Is there something missing, that make's us mad.
We cry for people that have passed away.
And smile for people that are here today.
So what can be missing, in this old heart of mine.
There is something missing I wish I could find
YOU

Weekend past was

Time isn't passing as quickly as I want it to at the moment...

Posted: 7/31/2009 6:15:39 PM | she passed all too soon
on this half day moon
she was here this morning
then gone with no warning
she was much too young
to have her life all done
i'm in shock.... a young woman in her early 20's....lots of presence....
a colleague of mine....worked with her yesterday....never again.... | |

only what the night can see
you are right only the night can see

if I could give you just one kiss

Posted: 8/1/2009 11:41:28 PM | clearly i'm in a dangerous mood
and on the verge of being rude
i'm either overtired
or totally wired
better not stop to brood
it's best i just retire to bed | |

One time you would have found
My body at the centre of the storm
Eclipsed in Darkness
I was lost in the night
finally found my way back to the light | |

Posted: 8/3/2009 3:54:44 AM | this morning the light is grey and flat
though the trees are still such brilliant greens
and the rain and sun have grown the grass
this morning the light is grey and flat
while i, nestled in my early morning coccoon,
must rise and let the sun shine from within | |

All two weeks!!!
We all start back soooo quickly
Did we even have a summer?
Rantings of disillusion
Created by a worn-out mind | |

gotta make the morning last,
just kicking round the cooble stones
looking for fun and
feeling groovy

Posted: 8/3/2009 12:35:16 PM | First two days of boys away
I slept until Noon:30
Blessed was I
Hearing raindrops fly
Never the slow resting glory
Ahhh...my friend, "that" is another story :) | |
