Open
Leaden lidded, I observe the hazy day Through my reluctant, cringing eyes. Blearily I note vistas of unending grey, The tedium of iron clad skies And the cancerous growth of dull concrete Merging into a monotone of light; The haze where grey earth and grey sky meet Is disturbed only by the grey...

Her Dusk
The tender blaze of summer bathed her with golden fire, The love hazed amber of it's light Painted gentle features with the warm tints of desire And the silence was only broken by the sound of Eros taking flight. The subtle shades of evening coloured her with passion, The soft dusk tones emphasising...

She Was
She was a bright lit, spice scented rent in my reality, Introducing wonder to the misery of my day With a soft laughed caress, rich with sensuality She showed me how to send unhappiness away. With tender tongued wisdom she exposed the self deception And the self defeating fear which did not want me...

Only Me And You
Underneath the spot lit glare You'll see me perform for the crowd, Capering and laughing like a loon, Tumbling and dancing while they stare. I am a clown for them, gleeful and loud Leaping to the organ's merry tune. Only you can see me, The man behind the happy show, Who loves and hopes and bleeds,...

He Waits
Sultry night oozes down the face of the skyscraper A clarinet warbles an evening serenade, A tornado of desire hides on the bench behind his paper As dull pages quiver with a passion long delayed. The honeysuckle song tickles through the quiet, The tender tune mourning the dying of the sun As...

Sunset
The sun set in your eyes today, The last time that I will see it shine Or feel the passion of its loving blaze And as I watched the last ray die I took the dregs of hope to pray That although the heart will not be mine The lover who receives your gaze Will see the dawn break in your eye And so at...

Love's Army
Step into the mine field of desire Where every movement is a chance And each tussock could be loaded. Wander through the hail of friendly fire Past the booby traps of false romance To find that mine which, when exploded, Destroys the heart's only defence And allows love in through the breach To make...

The Awakening
Morning enters, clothed in wool and steel: A hard grey figure banishing the languid night And commanding the march of day. I wake, soft fantasies sundered by the feel Of her stern breath and the sharpened light Which offers mayhem if I should stay Wrapped in the soft velvet of sleep. Reluctant eyes...

Facing The Dawn
We stand in sunlit splendour, Side by side, facing the dawn Our playful spirits rise and soar As morning skies are softly drawn In shades of mauve and lusty red: A tapestry of love and light To herald the tender day ahead And celebrate the end of night. As we stand in dazzled dawn lit awe Watching...

Waking To You
A tempest of shadow that tumbles against gold, A raven tinted riot that parties before the sun Over gilded brow, soft night unfolds In tangled and unruly fun. A breathless tangle of sable in the sunlight A tender celebration that tickles honeyed skin A sweet dark caress that brings a visible delight...
