A Picture of You

 I have a picture of you,

A still frame in my mind,

An image of you that you left behind,

Time is forever frozen,

A memory of you,

It was night time,

We were hand in hand,

At the time,

Mmmm,

A picture of you in my mind,

Of a time long ago,

The bench where we sat and watched the river flow,

Under the lampposts that were aglow,

Warming light as I held you tight,

Then kissed your lips and said goodnight,

Remains

All that remains of what was,

The skeleton a frame,

No individuality, 

No name,

No history,

Just a reminder of being present,

The tale of bones.....

A Wheel

Round and round I go,

Riding on a roundabout,

A wheel,

After losing on the swings,

Around in circles I go,

Clockwise by perpetual motion,

Propelled by an external force,

Out of control,

A hamster on a wheel,

Unable to stop.........

Autumn change

 As light time fades,

The sun beginning to dim,

Days are shorter as the night draws in,

Autumn leaf is upon us,

The colours start to change,

Shades of yellow, orange and brown,

Some of red and purple,

Many falling down to lie on the ground,

Time to snuggle in .....

Thinking Aloud

Thinking aloud,

How has it come to this,

Your not alone,

Have twist and turns of fate made you feel this way,

An individual who lost their way,

Feel lost in a crowd every day,

Camouflaged in the herd as life goes by,

Dealing with fate the best you can,

You are doing great, 

It is good to talk,

Let it out,

Never be afraid to speak there is always a listening ear..

 

king for the Day

Perched on a branch,

A King for the day,

Waiting for a fish to swim my way,

Heron's fish in the deep,

Eel's are what they seek,

The air is broken,

As swans start to fly,

A little moorhen floats on by......

Metamorphosis

 

Freedom

Freedom is the ability to escape,

Escape from the restraints we make,

To liberate a soul,

To be free to express how we feel and how we want to live.......

Wishing Well

I threw my coin in the wishing well today,

Heard it splash way down low,

Echoing sound,

Resounding in the well as my wish was cast,

A secret to unfold,

In the days to come. 

Opening Eyes

I opened my eyes last night,

To view upon the darkened skies,

Stars passed me by,

Some of them shot across the sky,

Star to star I drew my lines,

Drawing pictures in the sky,

Pictures new I drew,

Maybe deja vu,

Predictions told in the stars,

Fortunes to unfold,

✨✨✨

Dancing Spirit

Dancing spirit,

Setting colours free,

Life 

Past and Future in a Frame

Past and Future in a frame.

Captured by a camera on a day,

Memories sad of the past,

Memories made on the day,

Dreaming of the future and what it holds.............

Only time will tell as it unfolds.

Dwell and Dwindle

Dwell and Dwindle

Like a nomad I dwell upon the land,

Not calling one place home,

A gypsy king in my own realm,

Self sacrifice to protect my pride,

Living my own dream,

Roaming here and there without a care,

Not dwelling on the past,

As issues dwindle away,

Living every day, 

Memories to last,

Prompted  by a word to make a pen come alive,

Bleeding ink,

To be captured in a diary,

A diary called................ LIFE

A Rose

A Rose

A rose was given as a lovers gift,

He held her in his arms,

Told her how he felt,

Opened up his heart,

All the words fell out,

Caressed her with his hand,

She kissed him with her lips,

Enchanted,

Was this just a dream,

Fast Lane Love

I sat and starred as you passed me by,

A vision of a passion,

I want you as my toy,

With a warm glow and racing wheels,

Singing away as your engine hummed.

A young boys dream,

Has passed me by,

As I sit and stare with envious eyes.......
