The sun and flowers
didn't seem to
       shine today.
But the smile
upon my face
                      did.
Sometimes things don't always go as planned.
But that shouldn't prevent you from having a good day!
Make the best of every situation!
Although it's easier said than done,
it sure as hell won't hurt to try!
I sit and watch the sunrise,
as life unwanted 
courses through my veins.

Once I saw the joy in morning
It's quiet wonder would lift my eyes,
nature awakened by it's tender kiss
as I breathed it's sweet perfume.

I see no glory now
there is no song lilting gently on a breeze.
All birds have flown
only silence remains.

I will hang my heart on broken bough
to rot amongst the fading blossoms
and bow,prostrate before the coming storm.

black waves fall
in a fine
latticework;
eyes singing songs
of the
ocean

oh love, wouldn't
you want to know?

lips dancing on
soft rose
petals
whilst a slither
of a shy
glint

oh love, couldn't
you try to know?

a shy song floats
in the cold
air,
filling up the
thousands and
more

oh love, shouldn't
you already know?

the pacific hums
the sound of
rain
smothering me
with thoughts of
y o u

oh love, *i know.
just an impromptu poem to feed the hunger of the privy inquisitions regarding this girl i'm infatuated with

She Bangs and Cracks
Rumbles and Moans
Rolls away to a distance
Thundering dark purple
Black as night grey edges
Her mood is defiant
Challenges all to contest
Her unruly ruling tempest

sea is singing united with the skies
grass is singing with the earth
Man is singing with beauty of it all
All known outer space looks on brooding

I lost a poem the other day
containing all the words I planned to say
A heart poured out upon even lines
an ink stained sheet offering words that rhyme
..
I think I wrote of a love so long ago
memories I'd forgotten now, or didn't know
It may hold the answers to my weakened heart
or at least lead me to a future I'd wish to start
.
I'd like to see once again these words that spoke to me
they offered a warmth comforting many anxieties
So, if you see my lonely words just floating around
please try to capture them or entice them to the ground
..
I need to read the thoughts once stored in my heart
from these words I can no longer be apart
These precious forms they heal my tainted soul
pulling me together again,  making me feel whole
