The fall of a great tree has the power to take down others.
A clearing is made in the forest and new life fills the space.

A drop of ink does not need stirring to be diffused in water.
A drop of ink becomes concentrated when the water evaporates.

Rain does not fall forever but where it is stopped, there it continues.
Trees will not grow forever but when they die, death is not the end.

A small pebble is placed in the stream. The pebble is carried away.
A large pebble is placed in the stream. The water flows around it.

Too lost to turn back. Time covers its tracks.
Voices go unheard, stolen in the wind.

As chaos abounds, I look to the dark
and distant grey clouds. Their weight is with me.

My eyes are heavy, drawn into the ground.
Moisture gathers, forms a drop on my nose.
Knackered, bowed and kneeling, I knit my brow
and wonder where the unknown, west road goes.
When I raise my hanging head, I feel for
the strength to rise up, stand and carry on.
I have looked inwards to see through the fog
because the signs that guide me have gone.
It is a struggle to walk in the mud,
Whilst cold and weary, with my clothes sodden.
My thoughts are hazy but a strong heart should
not fail me. My faith is not forgotten.
Aimlessly dragging hope alongside despair,
a feeling leads me, I do not know where.

The veins of the earth, the rivers flowing,
the aspects of you filling my spaces.

it is cold
then hot
so quickly
it is tough
it is hard
but melts with heat
it tings
it taps
and
knocks
about
the surfaces
of the kitchen worktop
these are properties that stir tea
it is cold
then hot
so quickly
it is cool
it is calm
but bends under pressure
it sings
it raps
and
talks
about
the textures
of existence
these are properties that stir me
