Lost in a forest
And falling into a whirlpool.
Crestfallen into the deep
As all tension is dispelled
Into a fading mist.
I find myself lost
In a forest of beryl.
Glittering and glistening
Vibrating frequencies
They pierce my very being.
Lost in a forest
Snared by roots
Transfixed in place.
I begin to melt
Like the flame melts the candle.
I find myself lost
Fading into shadowless night
Lost in the forest
Lost in her eyes.

#A flake of gold I found in your soul
A boom town it shall never be,
Except for the one digging your hole
How you were left suffering.
Curse those murderous mines
And **** those mosquitoes,
I wish it were me a thousand times
Your soul off to greener meadows.
Don't be scared to cross the gate
Baron Samedi now guides,
Loneliness to acclimate
A widow's final goodbye.
"I never knew afterwards for how many hours of that journey I had flown with a corpse for company because, when I landed, the man was quite dead." ~ Beryl Markham#

1.
Magpies sang of an avian astray
Silence soared over the African horizon
Last seen heading Serengeti's way
Off your perch daughter of Poseidon
Pegasus tame ascended heavens sky
Looking for smoke risen or a glisten
Over the Serengeti and Masai
***Waning nights turned to
waxing fright lead to
prayers of frisson***
2.
Emergency at Victoria Lake
Three hundred and fifty mile detour
A miner in need, a friend forsake
Beryl, an angel with the cure
Her wings not heroic nor romantic
Just a job at an uncomfortable hour
Lacking of sleep and a dose of frantic
Set sail in the moon, Africa's flower
3.
A life saved and a tank fully nourished
Took on the life of a bird and set course
Peered out and lo and behold
A gleam
a glimmer
a glint
a glisten
a welcomed gift
a green palm among a snow so white
There she lies
Woody's delight
"All Metal"

Spewing hate as usual
Desperate for attention!

"I fear once the time for friends ends, my desire
would leave me exposed to the ill kept as well
from enemies, leave me forgotten, misfit for both."

In here I found something so rare
Exuding brilliance everywhere
A little stone at your first glance
yet great a value does it bear
While it may seem as not so great
The more you spend your time with it
you’ll change your mind and realise
the things you can appreciate
Especially when you can see
its brightly lustrous qualities
you’ll want to have it all the time
and anywhere that you may be
Indeed it is a treasure dear
alluring always, never blear
it never fails to give me cheer
I hope it never disappears
