Sol

Sol smiled at me this morning While I clambered out of sleep, Slow-headed squinting, yawning As I made the reluctant leap From night into day. Sol smiled as I struggled awake And slowly came to understand: The sun was here and I must make Changes to what I had planned And go outside and play. Sign in to see full entry.

Bombadil

I wish I was a Bombadil, Wealthy in love and song, To dance in forest and on hill Where happiness and joy belong. I wish I was like old Tom To sing in the moonlight Until her tender light has gone And sunken into deep night. I wish I was a Bombadil Rich in joy and romance, Wonder and in good will,...

Fidget

He couldn't sit still, Swamped with restless energy He had no way to spend He squirmed and writhed In his prison seat. Nothing bent to his will And he seethed with silent enmity Waiting for the day to end, When work had tithed It's due, when debt complete He could finally be Perfectly and completely...

Waiting

I am poised and prepared Waiting for my cue To move and speak And change the nature of my day. I am eager and yet scared, Adapting to me and you May provide those challenges I seek And help me to find a better way To progress and grow, Or not, I don't know. Sign in to see full entry.

Autumn's Redemption

The colours blazed As if, suddenly ashamed Of her grey misery, Autumn had set the world afire In a festival of warmth and light. I stood amazed As drab leaves dazzled and flamed In many coloured majesty Sufficient to inspire A sense of wonder and boundless delight And as Autumn's beauty was revealed...

Grey Day

It is an iron day, Autumn's blaze turned bland Beneath breezes of steel And skies of unrelenting slate To leave the world in shades of grey; Amid concrete citadels I stand Marvelling at how I feel Such joy that I must celebrate Each colourless specatacle I see And watching, smiling, I become free.

Too Much

I have too much on my mind; Too many thoughts and fears, Hopes, needs and dreams To focus on a single one. So dazzled I am blind And dazed until my vision clears But for today it seems My focus is undone; too many things capture my sight For me to pick just one and write. Sign in to see full entry.

She

She was a half heard melody, Haunting in the moonlight, Soft as a kitten, sweet as wine Vital as a heart beat. She was a difference, an oddity, A variance from common right Written in ledgers and praised as divine; Her life was replete As most could never be: It was her own and it was free.

Gossip

Silent as a mocking bird, I leap from thought to thought Without pausing to digest Or fully explore. I make melody of all I have heard Without wondering If I ought; I begin then I digress And then I start once more. My song goes on and ever on And leaves you no wiser when I have gone.

Thoughts From Beyond The Smoke

Sometimes, for an instant, I crave my old chains; The slavery and need sing their siren song And I forget the wheezing and the stains, I recall friends and safety and I long To cuff myself once again. The moment passes and I choose to remain free, Ignoring captivity's seductive lure I turn away and... Sign in to see full entry.
