The woodwork

I tried to carve but my hands were too bruised and weak.
Traveled so far the language I cannot speak.
Stayed long enough for buildings to be raised from the cold hard ground.
What once was lost for years will now be found.
Trees and animals have...

Mother

Mother

Roses for mother,
Lillies too,
Mothers love flowers,
The beauty is resemblant of her.

Grace and beauty,
She sits on her thrown,
Applying her makeup,
Which was a needless fascade.

As she gracefully glides,
As she shops with...

New ways of thinking

Need new ways of thinking; I heard him say..

Oceans are telling
What can we do?
Evidence
Mounting
New ways
Can't save
Us from our
Humanity.

Problems are mounting
Won't go away

New ways of
Thinking
Bring
Back
The old

Little Pip

Hey!
Hey…
What have you done today?
Where have you been?
And tell me, who have you seen?
When I look in your eyes,
I know –
I know...
...you’ve been sat here,
talking to ghosts.

I, I can see.
All that you want to do is talk
to me
and...

Reflection

When I was young,
I had such hunger -
searching for meaning,
reading and dreaming.

II shone so bright.
No time for spite.

Now I am old,
I am much colder ...
too tired for dreaming –
just silent screaming

I miss that child.
He made...

Sunbathing.

Jesus it’s hot.
I’m burned to a crisp.
Feels a bit demanding
to be asked to even think.

Don’t want to speak,
or flick out a limb –
Just lie back and calmly let the
sunlight really bake me.

Such a sunny day.
Burn my worries away.

Lullaby

The light of your eyes
soothes me -
keeps me from fear.
Keeps me from worry.
Calms and assures.

But you, don’t take care of what you need to –
no relief.
I don’t know what you feel,
I just hope that you can breathe.

The warmth of your...

The gOD particle.

Atoms never touch,
which explains
why no-one
has ever
touched me.

Apart from you.

A “super collider”
with something
inside ya
that has
touched me.

A sense of...

Haunted by Decay

Haunted by Decay

Windows and doors warped in frame
and the shadows cast have faded
distant memories the walls remember
the hope the life the death.

Everyone goes away.

Once upon a yesterday
room for living and bed, was busy
all roads...

The hearts of one's left and gone

In realms of love, where memories reside,
On Mother's Day, our hearts confide.
Though they're gone, their presence lingers near,
In cherished moments, ever dear.

With gentle touch and loving embrace,
They shaped our lives with warmth and...

Remembering all the Mother's on Mother's Day

In realms of love, where memories reside,
On Mother's Day, our hearts confide.
Though they're gone, their presence lingers near,
In cherished moments, ever dear.

With gentle touch and loving embrace,
They shaped our lives with warmth and...
