Ever I have longed to take
your hand upon my palm
for all the nights I've lied awake
regretting what I had not done
in morning's rise I had believed
in cleansing of my thoughts
but removal I had not achieved
and was left with not a loss
now as ever, I long to take
under moments rash or calm
in days asleep or days awake
your hand upon my palm

Atop a bed of clovers
I lie and wish away
the days of burden fallen on me
under willows that softly sway
Under potent clouds and sun
i beg and plead and say:
"let this time and times go on without me
alone, I'll gladly stay"
Without charm and devoid of peace
i taint my every day
so now i wish the sky to hear me:
"Let the world go on and play"
Atop a bed of clovers
I still lie here day by day
I whisper "please forget about me,"
I guess you have to yell when you pray

Winged birds swoop from the sky
At the edges of light, tame and wild
Cecilia watched, I don't know why
But she stood...and she smiled
The sky was maybe a lilac blue
Like the water of a sea
A colour remembered fondly, you
Stood and watched with me
With your friends and with your flowers
Falling asleep in meditations
Beneath the arriving of showers
You held young orchids and carnations
Soon I beg for our departure, I cry
"Let us leave," I say to you
But I know my words do not fly
Nor are they a lilac blue
And so, I stand beside you, still
Underneath a sky, I admit is like no other
One day we'll leave, you say we will
But for now I sit at the feet of my mother
~.~
The music then plays softly, sweet
The notes you say you love
Looking up from my grassy seat
I listen to the stars above,
They're Dancing to a nightly tune
Above and behind your shoulder
Along with the changing moon
Our stay turns one year older
With the music and with the night
You teach patience to your child
None is wrong and all is right
When Cecil watched and smiled
With the music that's tossed and turned
You teach calmness to your daughter
All is taught but none is learned
With the Washing of waves in water
~.~
All at once the showers arrive
But your daydream has not slept
The lessons taught are kept alive
I promise -
In my ***** hands they are kept
Where we go and where we went
And the time we spend there
Now just sit, be content
The year will be new and fair

I do not kiss where I can ****
Just as I do not repose where I can rule
All I'll say and all I will
To the carers that are so cruel:
I never kiss where I can ****

To stand is solitude, I know
Is my fate for all time that grows
For all days that have passed
And all moments that lie below
To stand in solitude, I dare
Say is my fate for here and for there
Lo and Behold! I see myself standing
In solitude, I know

I fall
Into Rumination
The thoughts are constant
Buzzing of words
Stinging of fears
I fall
Away from here
I am gone
Into Repetition
The whispers are present
Volume of shouts
Burning of calls
I fall
I fall
I land
Into Rumination

The tenderness of stars is true
When darkness swallows careful
And I lean back next to you
Of all things learned and taught
Only one I know to be thoughtful
In matters alone and matters not
Only and only the tenderness of stars is true

A waltz, I dance, delightful
A second or so in song
A duet, I dance in nightfall
The Music plays on and on...
A smiles grows fast, inching
On careful and gentle mouth
Spin me, turning, falling
Oh, dare I say I laugh!
The memory lasts lifetimes
The moment lived just one
Alone I dance a duet
I Waltz with no one!
Hold me nearer, close
Music in my ears
I remember not how long it lasted
Months, minutes, years!
Listen to the voices playing
A skip in my flighty heart
I can't, I can't, I am unable
To leave, to be apart
I live within and stay
Here for however long
Days may pass by the moon
But the music still plays on!
A dancing hand touches,
Moves like a bird
In flight it bats it's wings
Dancing like spoken word
It casts a shadow on my face
Where hidden answers lie
I dance a duet with none by me
As days and lifes go by
In this moment, an eternity
Somewhere the music plays on,
And I am still dancing, happy

And I say unto thee, wearily
I know not when it will end
The realm of darkness, a growing sphere
Where times lies down to spend
Exalted standers, enter near
In the same mystical space as I
But Lo! The horizon does approacheth
Over-all they do or ever did try
Loudly I say, how do I perceive it?
The True Greatness that occupies...
A blessed vision, they do not think of
Though it looms before their eyes
I yell unto thee, fearful
Warning you and beings to surrender
I cannot look down and ignore the darkness
So be it, I shall, forever

A Lily hurt me deeply
How could something so soft be so hard
It poked and it shamed me
With it's lilac petals and green bone
When I touched it, felt softness
When I looked away, sensed stone
This is what the Spring gave me!
A soft looking Lily
With a penchant for scorn
