Yew

Yew be surprised,

Deceived are the eyes,

As you blink,

A foot step it would take,

To creep up on you to see what you would do,

Ancient as time has passed,

Old and wrinkly is the trunk,

With open arms to embrace those that rest in this place,

 

October Moon

October moon graces the sky in the day light,

High above a tower at day break,

That morning stroll under a lunar glow,

St Mary's Church Totnes

A Startled Burst

A startled burst,

Take to flight,

A need to get to a higher height,

To escape that predator below,

 

Serengeti

Mara, Mara was heard on the wind,

The herds of Elephants and Giraffes would sing,

As animals migrated the plains,

Wildebeest, Zebras and the Gazelles,

All of them on their way, 

To that annual location where they must be,

Serengeti National Park

Life as Destiny Unfolds

Tomorrow starts when yesterday ends,

The present is that thought between,

A vacuum of time in life where it is real,

For memories are just of history past,

Dreams are for future hopes,

Life is as destiny unfolds,

Stranger Things

Stranger things have happened to be,

Stranger times have made a stranger become,

In a strange time, time is strange,

A mirror image now that is strange,

Strange to think how strange things come over time,

When times are strange,

Stranger becomes the mind.

Travellers Tale

Ink drying on a realm of paper,

Words in defence of a realm,

Words unfold to describe a story to be told,

The history of old,

A kingdom so bold,

To explore the world,

By sea and wind,
