Momentum

The water wheel kept its cyclic motion,

A continuous kinetic momentum,

Fuelled by tears of pain,

Rivers following from their source,

The grieving brave with valour,

A standing ovation  by other survivors, 

With hearts like vellum tattooed empathy and compassion,

To mourn what had passed..... 

A Bravado in Love

The days of old when youthful bravado in love came,

With an air of take it or leave it,

When young hearts broke at an intense rate,

When a cupids bow was in rapid fire mode,

Mentoring Soul

A man of broken dreams,

Visions seen are still in another realm,

Oh those songs that are played on the heart strings,

The soul as a mentor providing hope and faith,

Knowing that love is deserved,

However knowing that it will be fate,

The Rain Forest

  Looking back on the rain forest one weeps, 

  To see the disappearing trees,

  Making way for progress,

  They say,

  Apologies my home is in your way,

  For crying now rain drops fall,

  On baron land where trees will grow no more,

  People of the forest will have to move,

  To make way just for you,

  Those that stay will not survive long,

  That is the human way, 

  So remember the rain forest that once was,

  It will never be the same,

ORANGUTAN
Person of the Forest

   

Intrigued by Wits

To open up one's heart,

To utter the scared words,

Announcement of truth,

Spoken from the mouth,

An oral declaration of love,

Scared out of one's wits,

Butterfly sensation within,

For fear of rejection,

Intrigue,

For the answer to the statement,

The mind in limbo,

Frustrated,

Impatient......  

An Innocent Rendezvous

A seed of doubt was sown,

Sown deep in the chamber of the mind,

The seed which would grow to a thought,

The thought that would demand time,

To create an innocent vision,

Creating dreams of a kind,

Attracting cupids arrow,

Sending an arrow deep,

A rendezvous of the heart and mind,

The yearning for a connection, 

For that Angel that has caught your eye,

A fairy tale to come true,

So one could become two,

The Nuance of Repeating Thoughts

The mind was familiar with the nuance of the repeating thoughts,

Like a herd of elephants stampeding a way through the valley,

Violated intrusion,

Shades of meaning masked in rising dust,

Nuanced thinking,

Mental confusion,

Thinking out loud,

Shallow thinking of the false and the truth,

Trying to understand the emotions felt,

With eyes engaged in an nuanced glance,

As one tries to figure it out,

With perseverance in mind,
