The cat it has a mind its own
Of fur, skin and bone
Its purr and call part of her guile
So often it made you smile
But do take care the cat is wild
Even when she seems so mild
Full of love for he who feeds
Never will she feel your need
Do not think that you will lead
Or the cat it will make you bleed
So treat her right or she will roam
The cat it has a mind all its own....

What is this trending thing?

This color is trending
That cake is trending
Someones life story is trending

BUT what is this trending
Is it truth bending
Is it one persons idea of this or that
Down the lane my steps are wending
Can this become trending

Oh well I shall just watch for signs
and hope I see it in time
to join the line
maybe then I will be trending too

Passion pulses
Lips red glisten
Eyes consume
Skin petal soft

Passion for life
Lips to kiss
Eyes to drink
Skin powder white

appetite, breath, life

When it comes time to go
These things shall carry me to the heavens

Not yet I pray

Allow me to love you just a moment more....

Like the well how deep is my love
The water and my heart so still
Come take from the well of my heart
Set a ripple to the waters and my heart to beat
Drink of my love so that it may sustain thee
This well of my heart and my love so deep
So drink of my waters and the depths that await thee
How deep is my love.....

In nights of dark
Deep in my heart
My life so blue
No words from you
No words to speak
From one I seek
Where now my love
The fire that raged
Still deep within
A spark not dim
Come fan this spark
Still deep within
Set alight my heart once more
Tis you that I adore...

Queen of hearts come here to
bide
Your warmth and love I keep
inside
Take this part I give to
thee
Just a small part of
me
When time has past and eyes do
dim
Feel this part down deep
within
The part I give is joy
untold
Joy I give gets never old...

Her eyes of emerald green
Eyes the deepest I've ever seen
Once held there - can never part
Eyes that see to my heart
No secrets I can keep
From emerald eyes so very deep

Emotions are they true?
Do I feel because of them
Or are they because I feel
One day on the moon
Next day in the abyss
What would it be like
To not feel the hurt
Emotionless
Never let it be so...

I AM because of them
Who I AM is because I feel
Hurt is my soul feeling
So bathe in emotions
Feel all you feel
I live because of them...

I sit and watch from not too far
and know not who they are.

One man, one woman sit and gaze.
How sweet it is the courting phase

New lovers hearts do skip and swoon
Two hearts so close they beat in tune
My eyes see desire bloom

The touch of hand
and meet of eye
Such lips of red
Each hope to try

They walk on home hand in hand
Knowing what each has planed

Too soon the lovers walk on by
and pass beyond my watchful eye....

The hunter waits in forest deep
Deadly quiet he must keep
His bow part drawn, his eye is keen
Waiting for his pray as yet unseen
Each puff of breeze
Rustle grass such a tease
Senses *****
Slow and silent is the trick
The doe stands in shadows dark
She gives a quiet bark
Poised and ready now to flee
From any danger she may see
One step two step she moves closer still
None can match this hunters skill
Watching down the arrow knocked
His larder needing to be stocked
Something about her gives him pause
Her belly swell is its cause
Beauty true, life unborn
His minds eye sees the unborn fawn
Compassion blooms deep within
To take both lives would be a sin
Slowly he begins to stand
The bow now slack in his hand
As quick as night
The doe takes flight

The hunter smiles his heart at peace
A rabbit caught shall be his feast...

I sit and watch clouds in the sky of blue
I wonder where those clouds have been
What wonders they have witnessed
What scenes of both joy and pain
So fluffy white they drift
What must it be like
Feet that never touch ground

I shake my head, a laugh escapes
Such whimsy and foolish thoughts
Just a man feet firmly planted on the earth
Still my mind drifts just like those clouds

Stand and deliver or feel the edge of my sword
The child stands mask in place
The game he plays
Today the highway man and rouge his guise

Who knows what he will be tomorrow
A knight a dragon to slay
Such children's play
Imagination his only bounds
Such joy to hear the child play

Never grow old with the child in your heart
Remember such games and joy it brought
The magic of play is time itself...

love darkness banished
Heart filled bursting brim
Eyes countless fathom
Sweet boundless beauty

The eye of the beholder
All have beauty's gift
Seek and yee shall find..

A storm of darkness rides the night
With clash of thunder and flash of light
To ears a rumble to eyes a fright
This storm a show of natures might

From deep within the rain will fall
Some only see a passing squall
But look you closer still
For here is natures mighty will
Come stand and feel the building storm
From winters depth such power born

Fear not for what you see
Spring will come to leaf and tree
The sun shall rise as spring days dawn
The earth now begins to warm
From each seed new life will form

Down the sun's rays relentless beat
All the earth it will heat
Long the days have become
So long they seem to blend to one
Feel the sun it's warming cheer
At last it feels like summers here

Colors change on leaf and tree
To fall to earth and feed its need
Days grow short and nights so clear
We all can see that Autumn's here

Life of summer begins to sleep
But life still beats in earth down deep

Now the year's come full around
As rain falls upon the ground
The storm of winter has returned...

Another year from which to learn.

Sit in silence night so dark
Now left behind my city ears
Now left behind my city eyes

As I sit the country wakes
Sky of dark no longer so
Stars bright shine through nights curtain drawn
Open now my country eyes

Sitting silent in the dark
Beat of wings the Ruru lands
His call now loud not heard before
Hedge hog snuffles and rustles grass
Not far off a cricket sings
Open now my country ears

Left behind the city lights
Too loud  its traffic din
The constant roar of life so fast

So far from here in silent night...

My love for thee is...

like wings of gold
wears no vale
knows no bounds
like music played
Heart fills and binds
Is sight to see
all surrounds

Without My love for thee
I fly no more
my eyes are blind
I am tied and tethered so
I can make no sound
I am a hollow shell
I have no light
I am full of doubt

Since I have my love for thee
I need never go without....

Sleep the thing of legends told
The time for dreams and plans
So rich the colours here
But ware the dream
For like the sirens call
The dream can consume your all
So sleep now deep and full
But wake to life and all it brings
Not for dreamers life in truth
Take joy for here our lives are full

The sun on shifting sand
It warms this place
Waves they move with rhythmic splash

Before my eyes you walk from surf
Tanned skin of coffee warm
Water drops that glisten so
Each step a dancers grace
My breath now hard to take
You turn my way
Your smile so bright the sun takes note
Such beauty an artists work

This still in memory bright
Feelings from time now past
Reminds me how blessed my life
The day you chose to be my bride

Now we sit together still
I feel your love from then to now
Though time has robbed me of some sight
Memory paints you as once you were
I wonder how you see me too
My hand you touch and time stands still
My bride and life

Together still
Together still
