Would you believe someone
Who told you they're a liar

We grew into adults together
And there were so many days
Filled with love and laughter
Held in our sunshines rays

We grew into parents together
Not knowing the joy it would
Bring to our young baby selves
To give them everything we could

We grew into pensioners together
After all the long and lovely years
Still the light we  needed and loved
Forever there through our fears

We grew to know each other together
Understanding with just one look
Always putting the other one first
We gave much more than we ever took

The next time you're tempted
To judge someone else harshly
See their health and happiness
A more positive route can build
Self esteem and healing and you
Will notice how much better you feel

There are many universal laws
And among them is our free will
Allowing us to make good choices
And wise decisions that help all
Bringing you ideas and clear clarity
To understand the needs of others

Our strength and truthfulness will
Help when feeling victimized and
Will gently guide our spoken words
So we communicate our needs to
Others and loving assertiveness
Becomes much easier for yourself

In the darkness under millions of stars
Was the warm smile of a prior claim
A chance to break with convention
Raised eyebrows turned to lowered lids
A shimmer of uncertainty fizzles
Highlighting the effect of defiance
In unexpected solitary splendor

Fantasy strikes punches into
Frozen hearts shattering
Belief crashing hope

There is a weariness of fairy tales
A magical desire to just surrender
To sleep dark and seamless space
And let the gaze follow the black

Shifting sand with nothing to hold
Onto,dust falling through fingertips
The gap in the curtains showing the
Black dog the way to a saddened soul

Smooth sea that never made a sailor
Years of education that never taught
How to love yourself or have dignity
Or how to nurture with open hearts

A child's high voice sounding like
A spash of pennies falling together
A life waylaid by regret drowning
In shadows,untruths and uncertainty

Never trade your authenticity for approval
Always be the exception

At times the emotions we keep inside
Seem almost too much to bear
Anger grief loss and guilt sometimes
Stay and refuse to go away
Until the only option is quiet despair

But somewhere from deep within your
Soul comes the sound you've waited for
And your swollen tearful eyes look
Upwards to see that chunk of light
That leads you to your place of peace

Keep looking my dear friend and you'll
See it's really there waiting for your
Gentle eyes to see life again in all its
Magical glory and its light will lead
You to the healing power of your soul

Half in stress and half in pleasure
For I am one hopeless romantic
The auditions have obviously begun

Future names and different clothes
Same thing happens again and again
Spiritual anxiety,quicksilver soup

Empty life and no final destination
Shivering in the boiling white heat
Jangling nerves of red anticipation

Change is constant in our lives

Your perception of yourself
Affects your vibe so let only
The good vibes flow freely

Real transformation requires
Real soul searching honesty
To be your true loving self

Be the reason you feel awake
Elevated empowered and magical
Peeling back the layers of your ego

Spiritually its important to forgive
Those who have harmed or hurt you
So that you find your own inner peace

It seems nothing is impossible in our lives

The awakening to knowledge of yourself
Is an individual process of seeking truths
Allow the stillness and find your peace
Nothing in nature blooms for all the year
Sometimes we can not escape the darkness
But we can learn to love ourselves there and
What we find may be a blessing in disguise

Your soul knows that uncovering
It's natural happiness lies in
Extending it's happiness outwardly
Like a spring bubbling forth
With its precious life giving gift of water

You have always been able to cope
With each situation that has
Presented itself to you and this is true
Of your future as it is of your past

All is always provided for you on your pathway
So spread those wings my dear friends and fly
In large sweeping motions and soft subtle breaths
As your life changing force brings you blissful joy

The spell of the folding star
Fortells the line of beauty
As the unknown becomes
The hammock and the
Broken knot the post

Cloud pink above the rockery
Grey fingers of twilight too
Resolving into the nooks
Across paths as ideas seen
Not given a chance to bloom

School mums running
Clever and cunning

Lipstick and blusher
Are good for chatter

Shadows and bags
Weekly girl mags

Gossip time and toast
They all have a boast


Slimming and fitness
Goal is the witness

If you've tales to tell
Their your best pal

Talk behind you back
Of all that you lack

Mums school gang
Go off with a bang

They'll give you hell
Then say oh well
No reason to yell
You just don't gel

When all that glitters is not gold
And valleys mist your open eyes
Call me , for my own magic wings
Can fly you to clearer sunnier skies

If the black dog is again on your back
And all you feel is the darkest grey
Call me ,for my own magic heart
Can beat your fears , calm your day

When your sense of perception
Has hidden all that you you've got
Call me , for my own magic eyes
Will show you all that you've forgot

When your days are  never-ending
And your  nights are hard sharp steel
Call me ,for my own magic angel
Tender love for you is all I feel

When all that glitters is not gold
And valleys mist your open eyes
Call me , for my own magic wings
Can fly you to clearer sunnier skies

If the black dog is again on your back
And all you feel is the darkest grey
Call me ,for my own magic heart
Can beat your fears , calm your day

When your sense of perception
Has hidden all that you you've got
Call me , for my own magic eyes
Will show you all that you've forgot

When your days are  never-ending
And your  nights are hard sharp steel
Call me ,for my own magic angel
Tender love for you is all I feel

Allow yourself to spontaneously
Celebrate love and its glorious colours

You truly hold the key to your prison
By imagining the door to the cell open
Love is the heart of the matter
The more you open your heart
Joy peace and love with reside
Bringing love and light to your soul

The beginning was unconsidered people
Their night time mutterings familiar
Friendly voices during the hours of dark
Addicts of the slow uncluttered time

But some choices will haunt forever
White shards of sputnics flying
Starry explosions within the eye
Show a gleeful sense of malice

As huge storms gather in the red sky
Swift confident and totally predictable
Images flashing like neon steel bells
Gigantic whistles singing in white heat

Behind these invasions of her space
That keep her company when not asleep
He attempts to brush away likes specks
Ripples of dust in the texture of his life

But to her it is a slow painful process
An identity that has been stolen and
Her wide open eyes can only stare
Hearing acute for the sirens soft wail

Within the centre of your being
May you find peace
Every act of unconditional love
Echoes in eternity
Spread your wings and dance
Dreams into reality
If your situation  won't change
Then change yourself
The optimist is often as wrong
As the pessimist
But he is far far happier
Choose happiness

You smile and my love cherishes the moment
As it anticipates the next heartbeat of potential
It's like a precious tapestry that unites us all
In its rich colours of rainbows in bloom

You smile and my heart beats stronger ,faster
Pushing love all through my body and out of
The top of my head causing a flood of white
Light to cascade on all who come into contact

You smile and my eyes shine unconditional
Love for you my family and all humanity
Caring is a way of sharing from the heart
Circle of love is completed if you just smile

You hold in your hands
The colour of your day

Five  coloured coral moons await me
In a deep  sea of liquid gold
The wise ones who  will carefully tutor
They are my ancestors of old

The first to rise was was pure white
With the  softnees that is peace
Love acceptance and knowledge resides
In smiles that can not cease

Next to show was the purple globe
It's precious rays delicate and calm
Inspiration and good judgement
Will be my daily creative balm

Following on was sunny yellow
Shining her beams of hope
Innocent happy and light-hearted
Helping my new world to cope

Then came orange fun bright and bold
Spraying me with her vigorous zest
Stimulating alive on top of the world
Splendidly alert to all that is best

Last to rise was the blood red moon
Crimson streaks for all to see
Raging passion desire and lust
With just a touch of intimacy

What is in your heart will always shine  
Even when you cower
Through the storm
Love will see you home

Cardboard box under flyover
Canvas tent in an alleyway
Sleeping bag in small caves
That's our home for today

Thousands of young homeless
All down to our cut and cap
A generation of people like us
All over our own English map

We're ripping safety nets away
Leaving them out in the cold
Rotting their young bodies daily
Harming their brave fresh souls

We can take away their demons
Give them some chances to live
Allow them a future to be proud of
I'm sure that's not too much to give

Sunshine pleasantly awoke me this morning
With the beak tap of a tiny healthy bird
Extending it's circle of smiling gladness
To all that cared listened or heard

Blowing softly on my inner embers
And stoking the great original flame
Unill I understood it's glowing reason
Of why I sail  on the nights astral plane

The great seat of creativity now within
Comes from a relaxed and open mind
And today I'm more than willing ready
To stay in Sunshine's  splendid find

So if you see me vacantly smiling
Like the cat that got the cream
I'm living my new other life
In the land I call daydream

With her heart on her sleeve
She tells him who deceives
She'll love him till her dying day

With a sneer in his eyes
Very coldly he replies
He's waiting for that day

With truth on her lips
The poison she sips
Silently ends the day

The deep crimson sea speaks to my soul
As I imagine dipping
Into her healing womb
Then allow her power and beauty
To gently bathe my broken spirit
Until he rises reborn

Today feels different
Strange glistening eyes
Gaze directed inwards
Bitter sweet lethargy

Still as an ice statue
Can't imagine infinity
Life curls on threads
Of Justice and mercy

Bodies touching but
A void between souls
Tender cry of the alone
Stuffed full with empty

Assurances of bliss are
Realy just fairy stories
Invisible to the eyes it
Receeds shamefaced

When we really care about someone
Their mistakes can never change our
Feelings because it is the mind that gets
Angry but the heart still loves and cares
Our dignity may be cruelly mocked but
It can never be taken away without permission
We can't change what has gone only what is now
Stand beautiful strong and forever proud
That's when we are at our most inspiring

Loving glances dancing light
On skin delicately bronzed
Tripping over chosen words
Drafted into close quarters

Cheerful laughter glistening
Darned polite but amusing
Belonging making it easier
All seems as it should be

A flat open yard becomes the
Magical forest with brambles
And mazes on the edge as
She dreams the day away

Flitting about in a white dress
Sunshine turning her long red
Plaits to shimmering gold and
Translucent wings unfolding

An insipid tattoo on a worn out drum
Shells that have become ashtrays
In the mundane reality of life
Thoughts dimly reflected
In the ***** puddles
Scattered crumbs
In cold sheets
It's just a
Dreary
Day

Do not believe all the things you tell yourself
So resolutely outside times usual rhythms
When floating on the outer edge of living
Use your minds ability to toss up flecks of
The past further into the tunnel of long gone

Let those silent tears ,damp and glistening
Settle into an abstract sideshow of your own
With ingenious certitude and unstoppable
Force ,let misgivings fall away with due pomp
No matter how high the cold winds may blow

Our emotions are transient
And knowing they will leave
Can be very uplifting giving
Us a choice again to believe

We can't continuously be happy
We can't always avoid our fears
It's not realistic but if we can just
Accept how we feel  without tears

We can put our emotions into balance
And repetition seems to be the best key
We can ensure our thoughts are positive
And make pathways to just joyfully be

My soul longs to express itself in creative ways
I need to infuse artistry into my life
Naked expression makes me feel alive
Reignites passion to a weary body

Lifes very essence is a remarkable energy
A field that will respond to loving care
Activating a heart torn or tattered
Shielding the soul with love

In rhythmic cycles of balance and growth
Appreciating the gifts within
I seek the highest energy of all
Staying centered in my souls joy

Wrap your soul around mine
For unconditional love devine
Open yourself to the dynamic
Nature of your peaceful bliss
Your outer world is a reflection
Of your precious inner thoughts
Shine your light brightly knowing
Stars live within your loving eyes
The magic has always been within
Whispering gently in silent winds

No one else can take your place
It could never be any other way
Everyone has that precious gene
That is their unique expression of love



Be at perfect peace in all that you commune
Know that you have a place in this scheme
Accept your disappointments with dignity
Using courage to rise above lifes trials



Be powerful and responsible in your world
Choose friends who are loving and joyful
Show all that love is a free gift to accept
A great power sufficient for every situation



So stand tall my faithful friend of many years
As you wait outside the door of freedom
My love will walk beside you to watch you
Live to your highest potential with eyes that smile

Take care with your dreams
They can crack with reality
The hand that is given to hold
Has always relied on another
To regain its own balance
For it too has fallen hard
On the infertile arid ground
Needing water from the well
And salt from mother earth
Hearing it's owm wail and cry
It can only kneel and pray

She wondered what it would feel like
To escape the rigid boundaries of words
And speak in the fluid language of art

The chemical pull of the pen was exciting
But the blissful sensation of the brush
May give way to time losing its meaning

Her love of art came from her childhood
Story books when opened meant she
Could fall inside the wonderful illustrations

Years of life and years of passion spent inside
Black and white sketches and drawings
Magical incredible frightening and amazing

She feels the silence between poetry and art
She feels them expand and soften until it seems
Like a giant bubble that holds them both

Every day becoming stronger
Standing taller with each other
Firm bindings holding us together
Red blood lines drawing tighter

Learning all the given knowledge
Believing in the higher good
Knowing the ancient laws of man
Becoming in touch with spirits lore

Unconditional love at its purest
Loyalty portrays strongest links
Teaching the young to understand
The invincible bond of the family

Only through casting your inevitable care and worries
To the true source of love can a partnership remain
On the highest spiritual plane possible for us

Friends are like a second family chosen by us for us
And in our minds and hearts we surround them
With the white blue light of forgiveness and love

Our family can help us feel peace and love allowing
Us to live in the warm light of happiness and security
For family is all we need  in our wonderful world

Through the stillness
Miracles rush around
A bridge of white light
Allowing all the truths
To pour like silken rain
Into the waiting hearts
Of those who yearn to
Know and return home
Great love resides here
Upon the silence of your
Very first inhale of breath

Passport ticket and travellers cheques
Gigantic tin can capulted into the sky
Locking the door carrying two suitcases
Opening a door to an uncertain future

Reality has shifted by a few tiny degrees
And left everyone a little out of sync
Easyness has disappeared invisible and
Unquestioned in the past couple of years

Lacking the courage to make a clean break
Seeing a film of jaded dissolution settle
Understandable of course but not acceptable
Honest eyes and easy smiles were now needed

Life waylaid by regret drowning in untruths
Glancing skyward a plane flew low overhead
Answers were finally within reach and a
Shadow was to become real life flesh and blood

Follow your dream brave hero
Even though I gave up mine
To be with you

Follow your heart young man
For mine is now broken
By trusting you

Follow your truth old friend
Try to keep life pure
It will help you

Follow the sun bright one
Keep the blaze alight
So it warms you

Follow your dream my dreamer
Keep it safe and sound
It's there for you

Time to set aside work awhile
Playfulness , gaiety and laughter
Gives all a new perspective as
Our tired souls cry out for fun

Simple pleasures ,moments spent
In stillness,laughing with friends
Or watching that funny movie again
Play and fun balance our daily lives

We deserve happiness and enjoyment
Allowing pleasure in each new day
So stop what your doing right now
And let your playful spirit fly free

To receive first you must give
The universe operates in cycles
Optimal health and energy and
Replenishment needs balance

Inhalations  and exhalations
The acts of giving and taking
Ensures we maintain the rythm
Giving us the loving balance

Myriad solutions await our call
If only we set our inner minds
Dial onto the positive light that
Dwells endlessly within us all

Giving from a place of abundance
Knowing you have more to give
Brings a joy that lifts the spirit
Steering forwards in lifes dream

A silence of simply gliding
Birdseye view of all below
Total control of all you see
High above the clouds of woe

Patchwork quilt of love and joy
Great expanse in peace of mind
Magic landscape of beauty's all
Only air and breath around to find

Soaring lifes bends and curves
Hovering valley summiting hill
Forgiving contours of the man
Forever moving amazingly still

Out of this world inside my head
High indeed on lifes great wave
Oceans past and many more to see
Sailing strong with my  love to pave

It's a good thing to believe in magic
Then your wishes can come true
When life is easy and each day new
Magic just adores to surprise you

It's a good thing to believe in love
To be certain your on your way
Nurture and care every single day
Love simply loves to shine her ray

It's a good thing to believe in peace
No need to ever war and fight
Watching over humanity with light
Peace will always help us to do right

Those people whose first instinct is to smile
When you make eye contact with them
Are some of earths greatest treasures
And the pain that I've been feeling
Can't compare to the joy that's
Returning into my life giving
Me blessing after blessing
I'm truly grateful **

Held tenderly within  angel wings
He released his most inner secrets
And I silently wept for the strong
Hard man with the child in his eyes
