Have you danced with the leaves
in Autumn
Have you made angels in the snow
Have you welcomed the Spring
with an anthem
Have you longed for Summer to come
In each season is a lesson
of life and love and hope
of joy and inspiration
in the fairground of the world

Dreamer
darkness steals your face
I’m lost to you
who roam in palaces
of winter jasmine
and lie with sirens
in beds of silk and gold
SerpentineSky Sep 2024
Inside the flower
the nectar is sweet
The bee is enchanted
her reverie deep

She lights on the roses
and hums her delight
The bee is so busy
She’s beautiful bright

When you taste your honey
Remember the bee
Remember the flowers
ecstatic and free

Jewel moon
adorn me
Night- time
enchanting

Sunlight
embrace me
Light
in the morning

Rainfall
bestow me
with natures blessing

I am the winds child
I am a gypsy
SerpentineSky Sep 2024
Love was lost
like a diamond ring
left on the beach
love discarded
like a half- eaten
rotten peach
I wish you were awake
and not asleep
My wishes are like ships
lost in the deep
SerpentineSky Sep 2024
You are a bright and burning sun
within my lonely sky
You are a moon in darkness
a slice of apple pie
You’re birdsong in the winter
a flight within a dream
a fresh new book
a bunch of flowers
a bucket of icecream
SerpentineSky Sep 2024
I am the wind
The merest breath
on the baby’s cheek
as she sleeps
her evening sleep

I am
the bracing wind
that reddens cheeks
and teases skittish cats

I am the gust
that startles birds
to quarrel
in their trees

I am the gale
that wrecks the ship
The hurricane that
shatters worlds
