The Hand That Isn't There
I am holding the hand that isn’t there, Smiling my little smile, Saved from depression and despair, Free from misery’s wiles; I walk among the rainbowed blooms Enraptured by their brazen shades And drunk on delicate perfumes And I am tenderly unafraid. I am holding the hand that isn’t there, The...

Dawn And You
Velvet moments caress the half light As chocolate night melts into morn Sultry shade fades before the bright And the brazen parade of the dawn. Tender shadows softly depart As chorused light stamps into view, Day's carnival marches to my heart Celebrating thoughts of you.

The Fool's Lament
The lazy, golden summer air Lounges, unmoving, on my skin, A torpid, absent hearted caress Without need or intent And I lie, in accepting lassitude Until the sunshine is no longer there, Lost to my outraged flesh when Clouds for a moment coalesce And I seethe and roil In discontent And I leave,...

Dawn
The treacled flood of golden light Bathes my skin at sun rise, My torpid room suddenly bright As eager dawn tickles my eyes And begs me to come out and play And laugh and dance and run And welcome the birth of the day. Gentle slumber's time has gone And solemnly he dims and fades While, with...

This Morning I am Alive
Morning, and the wind is a slap on my sleep clad skin Leaving it rouged and yet alive, screaming with delight At the start of a new day and purring at the caress of the sun. My flesh leaves its doze and the smoky dreams of when She and I would talk and touch and cuddle through the soft night,...

Your Shade
I reach out to your wavering shade, The memory of what you were, Looking for your eyes in the mist, Recalling the bright times we made When happiness was a liqueur We'd sip and taste in each other's kiss, When the world existed just for you and me To experience and understand And the only limit was...

The Beacon
Piercing darkest confusion, And the fogs of fear's illusions, Is the furore of a beacon That challenges and beckons Calling me, calling me To carry on Dispelling the clouds of despair And overriding panic's blare Is a clarion of light That summons and invites Calling me, call me To carry on....

To Smile Again
The sigh of gentle emptiness softly, softly fades to grey As the simplicity of loneliness wreathes me in tender mists And clad my world in soft edged serenity. And then you appear: the garish onset of the day The frantic, hectic cacophony that will not stop, that can't desist The rainbow edged...

More Than Enough
It's like a heart beat: a rhythm that you can't quite hear But that you feel deep in blood and bone, A clarion, calling you away from rage and fear Reassuring you that you are not really alone. It's a scripture, delivered in the silken quiet of the night Amid the tapestry of dreams and longing sighs...
