Dawn

Saffron-gowned dawn swept into the bedroom, Sunlight glinting off each bouncing golden tress, The beacon of her smile dispelling the last of night's gloom The soft warmth of her eyes gilding the rumpled mess. Bloodshot brains opened to her sunrise, Sleep clogged ears awakened to her song, The beauty... Sign in to see full entry.

The Teacher

He was a vision in their blindness, He was a way out, a release From the treadmill of bitterness and hate That they had walked for years. He was an advocate of kindness, Speaking words of love and peace He tried to tell them it was not too late To let go of their pride and fears And walk in the... Sign in to see full entry.

More Than I was

I am more than I once was, I have grown in each and every way That I think a person can, Gaining from each failure and mistake. I am greater than I was because I have added to myself each day To become a much bigger man, I have grown for my own sake (well, perhaps I had some help from cake). Sign in to see full entry.

Lazing

Just let me laze Beside the fountain of forever, Let me recline By endless possibilities Where I might praise The triumphs of endeavour While I decline To toil for them, if I please. Let me rest Among the streams of moments passing, Let me lie Where eternal summers shine, Forever blessed Where... Sign in to see full entry.

On Your Lake

I sail on your lake, Caressed by your tender breeze And bathed in your gentle sun I am delighted to be alive. There can be no mistake When everything is as we please, Fulfilling, beautiful and fun, There is no waiting to arrive Because the adventure is why we're here. I sail on your lake and find...

Of Solitude And Joy

I'm putting the pieces together, Trying to find the best way, Finding my path to forever, Discovering it day by day. Happiness becomes my milestone Serenity is my sign post And the bliss that I find when I'm alone Is the one I should treasure the most; Solitude's gladness is more pure Than one found...

Free

It's busy here and loud With so many strident voices That it's easy to follow the crowd And take the popular choices, To be what I think they want me to be, To fit in, to belong. It is so easy to forget me, To ignore my voice as daft or wrong, To take another's thoughts as true And be thankful for... Sign in to see full entry.

The Walk

We walked together, hand in hand, Over the field and down the lane, Across the edge of the farmland Past rolling seas of amber grain By the river and the trees. We walked together as the sun rose, Shared the caress of morning's breeze And the dew's kiss on our bare toes; We walked together, you and... Sign in to see full entry.

Without You

I'm not miserable without you, I don't just sit and pine With nothing for me to do Than yearn for your lost sunshine, I talk, I dance and sing and smile And seek the beauty in each day But think of you just once in a while, Open up my heart and pray That until our fates, again, entwine Your day is...

Thought Flow

Like water, my thoughts flow Along their beds and creeks I may watch them as they go But, no matter how I seek, Today I have no clever dam No cunning lock, no bold quay: I stand with only what I am As my thoughts rush away from me Wondering how I might say That my ideas all flowed away Sign in to see full entry.
