Spaces

Spaces fill the gaps,

Time fills a void,

Grains of sand falling,

An hour glass draining,

Hands moving,

Clockwise,

Counting minutes,

Effortlessly,

Pass bye,

As a dawn is born,

That day has passed by,

From  yesterday to tomorrow,

The present is a gift,

The gift is the path,

This individual journey,

From the first day,

To the last........

Graced

Graced with the rising Sun,

A new day born,

This day has begun,

With the Sun crossing the horizon line,

Warming rays,

Caress the bay,

With kissing waves,

On golden shores,

With a gentle sound,

Of rolling pebbles,

As the tide,

Lowers with the time,

With shadows coming out to play,

All occurring in a natural way....

Dawn in Torbay

 

Whispering Trees

Whispering trees,

One is listening,

To the words carried in the breeze,

Watching the limbs,

Dancing with the wind,

Music made by the leaves,

With drifting clouds,

Floating by,

High above the canopy,

With daffodils,

A carpet of yellow,

Spread over the woodland ground,

With a chorus of birds,

Flying free,

In nature's play ground,

A waterway runs it's course,

With a flash of blue,

The kingfisher is around,

Angling on his fishing ground....

On One's Own Path

On one's path,

One must go,

It makes no difference,

If one goes fast,

Or if one goes slow,

No destination,

Clear in the mind,

Just moving forward,

That's all,

In one's own time,

That's all that one knows.....

Magic in a Pen to Catch a Readers Eye

The magic comes with a pen in hand,

When emotions transfer upon a page,

When letters join in harmony,

That is where the sentences are made,

To catch a readers eye,

Maybe heartfelt,

Will bring a tear to an eye,

For if a heart string is pulled,

That memory reoccurred,

Of a time and a place,

Maybe even that ex-lovers face,

Or maybe that special one,

That sadly passed away.........

A Thousand Words

To write a thousand words,

How one feels,

But cannot find those eyes,

Who would read,

A message unread,

For a thousand years,

Maybe in another lifetime,

Is when we are meant to be......

Rose & Bones 

Dawn To Dusk

Paths don't cross in physical time,

That journey between Dawn to Dusk,

Walking through the days,

Alone,

A foot step at a time,

Distance,

Lengthens,

But in the midnight hour,

You're there with me,

Dancing in mind,

Alive and free,

Together,

That is how it's meant to be,

Gone again,

At the break of Dawn,

Leaving me to walk alone,

With the memories,

The ghost of the past,

That only returns,

When I dream,

Oh,

How I treasure those memories,

And what they mean.......

A Stones Throw

A stone thrown into a pond, 

The splash resonated,

As ripples were born,

From the impact to the shore,

Like a heart beat that sings a song,

That special rhythm,

For a message is born,

Hoping to reach another heart,

That wants to sing along,

For a message can travel far and wide,

Not controlled by distance or time,

For if this message reaches you,

Hello from me to a special you.......

The Rhythm of a Heart

A Tender Kiss

The warming sensation of a tender kiss,

The moisture left on eager lips,

The remnants of a smudged lipstick,

The memories of that passionate night,

Two as one at Christmas time,

The tale of when hearts collide,

When Soul's come together,

It's a special sign,

For destiny has arrived,

What is meant to be,

Will find a way,

For you,

And for me......

The Silver Moon

Standing in the light of a silver moon,

A Romeo on a path,

All alone,

Waiting for his Juliet,

She has not shown yet,

Memories triggered by a lunar light,

Shadows pass in the darkness of night,

Dreams will end at the break of dawn,

But thoughts remain all day long....

Romeo & Juliet

As Clear As Day

The moon it played with my mind,

Thought of love within a dream,

The name from the past,

Ignited a flame,

Memories of places where we had been,

Visions of a face,

As clear as day,

That first kiss,

Stole my heart away,

Maybe our paths will cross,

On a new dawn,

A new day.........

DAY MOON

 

When We Pause

In life we find times when we pause,

It's all about choice,

Your choice,

No right,

No wrong,

Be brave and take that first step,

It it doesn't go as planned,

Pause,

You learned,

Let your inner instincts guide you,

One day that path will lead to a wonderful thing,

The Path

Emotions Flow

The emotions flow,

Tear stained streams,

Of what the pain means,

Now to see clearly,

Of what you truly mean,

Looking through the windows,

Of a Soul,

Looking at you,

Looking at me,

Lost,

In a space, between,

Releasing the pressure,

A wall crashing down,

Removing that barrier,

Perhaps now we can talk,

For if true love exists,

After being put to the test,

Love will find a way,

For if two Souls,

Hear the same song,

Of two hearts singing,

They can become one........

Tears of a Clown

On A Summers Day

Sat on a seaside bench,

Watching a couple stroll,

Looking over a bay,

On a summers day,

A warming breeze,

Seagulls flying free,

Listening to the sounds,

As the waves kiss the golden shore,

A name on the bench of a person,

Who loved to sit there before,

The Spirit of Dance

To dance in the morning,

As a new dawn is born,

Dancing with a shadow,

You're not alone,

A shadow born with the rays of light,

A friend for life,

To be by your side,

To lead the way,

Have your back,

Naturally knowing when the time is right,

Spirit Dancer 

 

It's A Kind Of Magic

It's a kind of magic,

As the magician cast a spell,

Enchanting words,

The Sorcerer said,

In a rhythmic sound,

Air is cracking,

The spell is cast,

As colourful shapes,

Came to life,

An illusion that will last,

That will last the test of time,

No one can never tell,

The Magician

 

The Grass is Green

To open the gate to enter a pasture,

To the grass that is green,

The sweet fragrance of the meadow flowers,

The aroma so enchanting,

Like a bee drawn to a honey trap,

Life changing there after.....

Thoughts of Grains of Sand

Thoughts deep within the mind,

Clog's turning,

A momentum of time,

Grains of sand drop,

Through the hands,

As they grace the face of the dial,

As the sun rises,

Casting shadows across the land,

All that remains are the memories past,

At this present moment in the mind,

Grains of Sand

 

Tattooes in a Mind

To read the lines of another poet,

It stirred emotions within deep,

To hit a cord,

Not like before,

Really made me think,

To capture the feelings with pen and ink,

On a page in verse and rhyme,

A poem that will last,

For the rest of time,

For the words,

Are still there,

Tattooed in my mind,

Five Golden Rings

Five golden rings,

The Carol Singers sing,

Voices carried through the air,

Bringing joy as they sang,

The Church Bells rang,

By the hands of the ringers,

From where they stand,
