Dawn To Dusk

Paths don't cross in physical time,

That journey between Dawn to Dusk,

Walking through the days,

Alone,

A foot step at a time,

Distance,

Lengthens,

But in the midnight hour,

You're there with me,

Dancing in mind,

Alive and free,

Together,

That is how it's meant to be,

Gone again,

At the break of Dawn,

Leaving me to walk alone,

With the memories,

The ghost of the past,

That only returns,

When I dream,

Oh,

How I treasure those memories,

And what they mean.......

A Stones Throw

A stone thrown into a pond, 

The splash resonated,

As ripples were born,

From the impact to the shore,

Like a heart beat that sings a song,

That special rhythm,

For a message is born,

Hoping to reach another heart,

That wants to sing along,

For a message can travel far and wide,

Not controlled by distance or time,

For if this message reaches you,

Hello from me to a special you.......

The Rhythm of a Heart

Deja Vu, There was Me, There Was You

It was deja vu,

There was me,

There was you,

We had been here before,

Meeting in our dreams,

You held me tight,

Through out the night,

Until the morning light,

Where we parted ways,

But our memory stays.....

Lone Swan

That Beautiful Sanctuary

A path to lead us to a place,

That beautiful sanctuary,

Filled with grace,

To meet those we recognise,

Those memories, in our minds,

Remembering the pictures,

Of those times,

All those happy moments,

Which have lasted,

Overtime,

A face is graced with a beaming smile,

Some tears of joy,

Smearing a cheek,

That person brings.....

When We Pause

In life we find times when we pause,

It's all about choice,

Your choice,

No right,

No wrong,

Be brave and take that first step,

It it doesn't go as planned,

Pause,

You learned,

Let your inner instincts guide you,

One day that path will lead to a wonderful thing,

The Path

That Path

That path led one away from you,

Their happiness is important,

But yours is too,

A step at a time you must go,

In the present moment that you know,

For every path is different,

As a past story shows...........

A Frame of Mind

I'm ok,

Was said,

With a smile upon a face,

Hiding the pain,

Within a frame,

That portrait that was portrayed,

Hiding behind the mask,

Identity disguised,

Saying what needs to be said,

In verse and rhyme,

On a path,

In present time,

The movement of hands,

The clock chimes,

Portrait Mask

Tattooes in a Mind

To read the lines of another poet,

It stirred emotions within deep,

To hit a cord,

Not like before,

Really made me think,

To capture the feelings with pen and ink,

On a page in verse and rhyme,

A poem that will last,

For the rest of time,

For the words,

Are still there,

Tattooed in my mind,

Heartbeat

To Listen to the heartbeats,

An individual sound,

Combined as one,

Thunder in the clouds,

Heralds the down pour,

Of heavy rain coming down,

Like teardrops flowing,

Staining the ground,

Never forget the lessons of regret,

Have we not learned......

The Hand

To hold a hand over a border line,

A love separated by a division,

The crime,

Religion,

Tears run dry,

With emotions we try to comprehend the vision,

Of pain and destruction,

The beginning to an ending.......

To Make The Heart Melt

A Melting Heart

To hear a song sang,

By a Songbird in the spring,

The meaning of the lyrics,

They meant everything,

Conjuring a smile,

From the emotions that are felt,

Oh angelic voice,

How you have made a heart melt, 

A Ghost of A Butterfly

Butterfly Meadow

She rested under the willow tree,

The branches low and swinging free,

Catkins drooping overhead,

That is where she rested her weary head,

A ghost of butterfly,

In a meadow where she used to fly,

Watching now the butterflies in the sky,

 

The Journey

Haytor, Dartmoor, Devon 

What makes a journey,

To hear someone say,

With everyone taking footsteps every single day,

To climb the mountains,

A challenge for some,

Looking at the view,

When the climbing is done,

Measured in time means nothing,

What matters most is how far one has come ..... 

The Robin

You came to say hello,

Knowing that I was low,

You stayed with me on this rainy day,

To hear what I had to say,

To hear me say,

I loved you,

Oh how I miss you so,

That you already know,

 

To Sail Upon a Pond

To sail upon a pond,

No wind to fill the sail,

Drifting alone,

One must prevail,

To have no compass bearing,

No destination end,

To drift with time,

As tomorrow begins to end.....

 

A Morning Dew

Tear drops form a morning dew,

On the grass that one once knew,

Grass was greener from a view,

A bridge has gone from where one grew,

As time goes by the grass survived,

Looking greener now from the other side,

No way to cross,

That bridge is lost,

No way back for you, 

Misty Eyes

Misty eyes saw the horizon,

A line dividing the sky,

Drifting on water,

Directed by the wind,

Watching the clouds drift bye......

The Rose

To watch the petals,

Fall off a rose,

A dying flower by the hour,

That fragrance diminishes,

As time goes by,

But the memory of that rose will survive...... 

The Book

To open a book,

Look at a page,

A message of love in the words that you read,

To understand the words that are wrote,

Leaving a lump within your throat,

A tell tell sign a watery line,

Left by a teardrop as it fell......

Water Marks

A pen ran dry,

No words to pen,

Thoughts in mind of a letter to send,

Words to express no ink to write,

A paper stained  by the tears as they fell,
